    Article on the new owners
    Annie R.

    This place is soooo good! Something to note if you read other reviews...new owners took over in 2022. I got a cheeseburger with bacon and a side of their bacon jelly and lemme tell ya, 10/10 would recommend. The bacon jelly was so dang good!!! Everything was super fresh and the staff is really nice. This restaurant has been here since the 60s and new owners bought it and it is really a must visit if you're in the area - plus its connected to an adorable local store (which I of course went in an got some local honey and berry syrup). Check out the article picture I posted to read the history of the place. They serve breakfast and lunch you won't want to miss.

    Love this!

    Food was outstanding, best patty melt I have had in awhile. Gives you that small town old dinner... service was on spot. Will come again!

    Grill has been part of Saluda for many years. Had lunch there. We had the Ward's 50/50 Burger, nice flavor, not greasy comes with a side, lettuce, tomato & pickle slices. Hours- open until 3pm. Serves breakfast too. It is adjacent to the Thompson's grocery store. Worth checking out.

    I loved the vibe and old world charm of the place. My kids both had regular cheeseburgers and I had a bacon cheeseburger with hot pimento. It was huge! My only complaint is that all 3 of our burgers were pretty pink and cool in the middle. I like my burgers to be DONE. It would have been nice to have been asked ahead of time how we'd like them cooked. The ranch seemed like it was made in house and had a lot of dill, it was different but tasty. Fries were incredibly greasy and not done enough for us either. Overall though, was a good experience even though the food wasn't cooked to our preference.

    Diners like they should be!

    I don't give many 5's, but this is great little diner and soda fountain. We had the CJ burger and it was excellent. (You can buy the ground hamburg used in the burger in the attached Mercantile.) Clean, efficient and ti's fun to watch the cook do his thing. Don't miss this one in downtown Saluda.

    Yummy home cooked breakfast!

    Really good food and very reasonably priced! Perfect place for an easy low key lunch after looking at the neighboring galleries and stores!

    Great burger, fries and shake. The staff is friendly and courteous. We made sure to return to Ward's again this year on vacation.

    A cool, old-fashioned diner style restaurant. The store next door is quaint, as well.

    If you've never ate here at Arabella's, you should really go try it out. The food is absolutely…read moredelicious. The decision on making what to eat now is a little hard. It took me a good little while cause I was deciding from three different things. The next time I go, I will get the Cuban sandwich but I ordered this thing with hashbrowns and sausage and gravy and egg and cheese on it. It was absolutely delicious and my friend had that avocado toast the atmosphere the ambience. Their staff was 100% amazing. Try it if you've never been I think you'll really like it.

    This morning my family and I decided to get up early and grab a bite at Arabella's in downtown…read moreHendersonville. Usually we come around 10ish and there's a small wait or the place is just really packed (even outdoor seating). But today we stopped around 8:30 and there was only a couple of tables taken up. We were greeted with a smile right away and taken to a table. We were given 2 different menus. One containing the different breakfast and brunch options they offer and the second one with the coffees and alcoholic beverages. Once you look at the menu you see that there is a lot of the basic breakfast options you can find at other restaurants. But what also makes the menu different is that they offer latin breakfast and lunch items like huevos rancheros, huevos con chorizo, tacos, burritos, and quesadillas. Since it was so early I decided to go with the huevos rancheros since I've never had them here before. I also decided to go with the honey bear latte (iced) with oat milk as my drink for this morning. My latte was really good! It had hints of vanilla, cinnamon, and honey. The oat milk mixed in perfectly making the latte have a nice creamy taste. Once my dish came out I was happy at the presentation of the plate. I ordered my eggs overhard and they came topped with salsa roja, queso fresco, and cilantro. All of this was placed on top of a fried tortilla and given to me with a side of home fries. Over all I did like the dish. I will say the salsa roja threw me off because I expected it to be a little more spicy, however it had a more citrus/lime taste to it. The home fries however were a 10/10 for me, I liked how crispy they were and how I didn't need to add more salt and pepper to them. Overall I really did enjoy my time this morning at Arabella's. Our server was super nice and attentive with us. The atmosphere is calming. Also it's nice to see the people of Hendersonville coming in and supporting this local business. If you're from the area or a tourist definitely check this place out. You wont be dissapointed.
