    Big fish with salad

    Another outstanding meal at Lyncoya. I have been coming here for years and it continues to please. The menu keeps refreshing with the seasons and that makes it an easy repeat dining option. Lyncoya has become so popular that on busy nights you sign in and leave a contact so they can let you know when to come into the restaurant. (allowed them to add a few tables and keep waiting customers from lurking over the diners) The staff is friendly even on the busiest of nights.

    Allee is fantastic!!!

    OK, this place is a must go! The food is amazing. I got the fried cod sandwich and even the french fries were the best I've ever had. My husband got the firecracker chicken sandwich and everything we ate was amazing. We will definitely be coming back here during our trip. Our waitress was so good!Grear job, allee!!

    French Cut Pork Chop, Fingerling Potatoes,  Broccolini.

    Chicken noodle soup exceeded my expectations. Excellent! Shrimp and Grits continue to be outstanding. They've always been good, but even better today. Abundant amount of shrimp, sausage, and seasoned just right. Add grits and cheese and it's one bodacious meal. Server Laura is first rate and made the meal an even better experience. Music is usually a little too loud as it was today, but why try to talk when you're having such a wonderful meal in front of you!

    Burger, cheese is cooked in the patty. Delicious.

    For quite some time I've been meaning to try this place. Now I'm kicking myself for waiting so long. Our server was ?Andrea? I think. She was very sweet. She took great care of us. They have a lovely tea menu. I had the African nectar tea and it had such a lovely fragrance and flavor. I'll definitely be looking for it to stock up at home. The West Coast wrap definitely tasted like California, with a southern twist. The crispy fried chicken and the Chipotle lime mayo were a flavor explosion. I loved it. When I wasn't looking, my hubby finished it off and I was a little peeved. To be fair, he ordered the smoked gouda grits as a side and I ate half of those when he offered me a tatse. He said his burger was great too. The food here is great. Not aberage, not good. Great. We even took an order of shrimp and grits home. We will definitely be back, and I can say I highly, enthusiastically recommend!

    A new favorite local spot that I finally tried! The food is delicious, the service is great, and everyone is so friendly. Definitely recommend checking them out if you haven't already! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

    Wow!! Not processed meat but a ribeye Philly cheese steak... I think it's made better here!

    I had the most amazing time at Lyncoya this afternoon! They have the most amazing service from their general Manager Amanda truly sets a precedence of welcoming kindness, she made sure to check in on me and her other patrons to ensure we were enjoying our meal and service ( I miss this!!) to our host Kayla and everyone involved this afternoon hugs all around for amazing food and exceptional service. I met wonderful patrons and I know I'll be there at least a few times a week!! Please keep up the great work! And the loving God fearing Christian's there are like a special treat!! Reminds you of what life is about.

    Friendly Staff, amazing Food!!! I don't think I've ever left disappointed! I usually like trying their Weekly Specials, but lately I've been enjoying their Cobb Salad with their Firecracker Chicken!

    I've been here 3 times and every time there service has been spectacular! Drinks come out fast and my glass was never empty! Food is always hot and fresh! Big portions for the price! There is normally a wait, but I always go at prime time. Friday and Saturday 7-8pm. They do close at 9pm. And the wait hasn't been longer than 20 mins. This is definitely a Gem in Hendersonville!

    The restaurant has a bit of a noisy atmosphere and is usually very busy. Also check the hours before you come because they aren't open every day. The parking lot is also a tight fit. Once seated inside when you get ready to order, be aware the staff is very strict about not letting virtually any dish be customized or altered in any way. It's as if they take it as an insult - but a lot of people have dietary alterations that they prefer (or need) to make. They don't care. I got the pot roast (just as it comes, of course!) and it was a satisfying portion. There is a whole carrot and a whole stick of celery on the plate. The pot roast itself comes on top of mashed potatoes and has a side of green beans.

    Stopped in for lunch today. Wait staff is exceptional! Best unsweetened iced tea and so happy they offered one to go. I tried the Reuben sandwich with fries. It was a huge sandwich. You can tell the corned beef is from scratch. I wanted to like it but it was too heavy on the clove for my liking. But that's on me - not them. If you're not like me I would recommend trying it!! Fries were ok. I will go back and try a different dish because the service and food quality is top notch! Don't sleep on this gem

    Special today! Salmon, mashed potatoes, and asparagus!

    Does this place have a full bar?

    Not yet they are waiting on their liquor license. It is in the process. Just beer for now.

She was really sweet and offered great recs to my husband. We both got the scrambler bowl, made our own ways. After looking at the waffle flavors, I had to get one of those as well. I was a little surprised when the scrambler "bowls" came out. They were more of omelettes on top of country potatoes with toast on the side. They were still great, but not what we were expecting (scrambled eggs with our ingredients mixed in). I opted for the cinnamon apple waffle which was absolutely incredible! It tasted like fall in my mouth. Mixed with the crisp weather outside, it made me wish we were in October already! I will say, if you do get a waffle and aren't a "sweets" person, go with a regular or something less extravagant. The apple topping was decadent, but it was incredibly rich. I was glad I had the country potatoes and my omelet to offset some of the sweetness. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained. It was very modernly decorated. The bathroom was fine, nothing special. The toilet seat of the stall I went into was not particularly clean, and the toilet itself was wobbly.

I've been here twice, and it's in a convenient spot with plenty of free parking nearby. Most recently, my husband and I stopped by for an early breakfast, and we had a quick and tasty meal! When I do dine at a First Watch, I usually aim to try something new since they have such a large menu. Their seasonal menu actually rotates every 6 weeks or so, and there's always something fun and fresh to try from their special selections. This time, I stuck to the healthier side of the menu, and went with the Tri-Athlete egg white omelette. This was light and very veggie-forward, which is just what I wanted for such an early meal. My husband ordered the Farmhouse Hash, which is a must-try for anyone who loves breakfast potatoes. Their multigrain toast is full of flavor, and one of my favorite things to dip in eggs or jam (or both!) I also love the AM Superfoods Bowl, although we didn't order that this time around. Our server was fast and friendly, and made sure we had plenty of coffee on hand throughout our meal. We'd definitely return to this location the next time we're in the area!!
