    Inchilada and mangonada

    No other restaurant to go to and ended up here. They need more of costumer service. You're in the US and you should need at least basic English to begin with, I'm sorry but it's the truth...host and hostess should have a smile when your costumer comes in not only to people you know:) ...ambience is nice ..food wise, and the drink is good. And the drink I was going to order they don't have ;(

    Forget all the reviews you see on this Yelp. If you Google this place, the Google reviews are 4.5 stars! 1. Facility: clean, welcoming, kind staff and great service. Music is fun and makes you shoulder shake while you're at the table. (Ignore the wankers that say it's too loud) 2. Margaritas. Presentation is delightful. Next level for a Mexican joint. We had an ice ball that was the shape of a rose! And what other margarita at a Mexican place has berries in the glass. 3. Food: well wow. So fresh, the meats were elegant, and delivered on an 8 person table of hungry tummies. 4. Location: you're right at the Walmart shopping center. Great for before or after grocery pit stops. 5. There are NOT rocks in the bean dip My recommendation: don't walk, run!! This place is legit. Get the Cantina nachos, the Yolanda, the Mexican tacos, all of it!

    Service? They wrote the book. No one stands around. The manager, the servers, the bus people, they do it all! I've never seen anything like it in all my travels. The food is even better! Food in the mountains should not be this good outside of Mexico. They also have a salsa bar that has multiple salsa and they have the best white salsa I've ever had. Sorry west coast, the east coast in the mountains blow you away.

    Thanks from Maggie and Katie!

    Everything I've ever ordered here has been great. The staff have always been polite and friendly. Can be very busy during lunch or dinner.

    We cut our Savannah Trip short and pivoted to Asheville. She had mentioned the Lobster Trap, so we…read morewalked there. It was a Saturday night so we weren't sure if a table or bar seats would be available. The incredibly polite hosts said they would see what could be done, and less than 10 minutes later we had a lovely table. The restaurant is exceptionally clean and the staff was the epitomy of professional. There was also live music (a nice bonus), but not loud enough to detract from a conversation. Let me tell ya, if you like seafood get your butt to the Lobster Trap. The oysters were very fresh and delectable. The blackened snapper and coconut crusted halibut were to die for. Seriously one of the better meals of my 42 years. Albeit, somewhere pricy, but honestly well worth it (especially when on vacation). Get on down to the Lobster Trap and you will not regret it. Cheers!

    A must do every time we come to Asheville. Never disappoints and folks are friendly and attentive…read moreduring your stay! My wife & I are celebrating our 45th Wedding Anniversary and have come to Asheville to go to all our favorite places and this is top of the list. To celebrate we split the triple tower which is loaded with fresh clams, oysters, shrimp, stone crab, snow crab @ lobster. All cooked & chilled to perfection! The place always has a nice vibe and the ambience is a seafood vibe with maybe a bit of old bar feel. If you are in Asheville or planning on coming to Asheville put this on the list for one of your dinner spots!

    Check your receipts. They're charging dramatically more than the menu prices without you…read morerealizing!! Pet peeve of mine and I'm seeing it more and more. How many folks just pay without looking? This isn't an oversight, it seems intentional. Jalapeño Margarita: Menu says $10.50, charged $13.50 (wow!). Old Fashioned: Menu said $9, charged $9.50. I think the meal prices were wrong too, but they already took the food menu. I still had the drink menu to take this photo from. Buyer beware!

    \We visited this restaurant with our daughter and a party of six. When the bill arrived, we…read morediscovered that a 22% gratuity had automatically been added. While we understand that some restaurants have policies regarding larger parties, I believe gratuities should reflect the quality of service provided. Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The service was slow, we had difficulty getting water refills and other items we requested, and overall the level of attention did not justify a 22% gratuity. What made the situation worse was the response after concerns were raised. We were informed that the credit card had already been processed for the full amount and were told that we should find another restaurant in the future if we were unhappy with the policy. In addition, after another member of our party left a review, a response from management included insulting and unprofessional remarks about customers who questioned the gratuity. Rather than addressing customer concerns respectfully, the response appeared hostile and dismissive. I believe tipping should be voluntary and based on the quality of service received. Customers should be informed of automatic gratuity policies before ordering, and concerns should be handled professionally. Due to both the service and management's response, I would not return and cannot recommend this restaurant.
