Decided to give Mamacita's another try recently. Now I remember why I haven't been back there in awhile. The wait was agonizing - there were only 2 people in front of me, yet it took about 8 minutes for me to even get to the counter to place my order. Once I got there, I understood why ... But, was... more

The fish tacos were awful (very fishy), the tortilla chips are not... more

If you like fish tacos, you'll love this place. Also, they have a nice, relaxed atmosphere and environmentally friendly take-out containers. It's the first place we always go when we get to Asheville. more

There are plenty of places on Biltmore Ave / Broadway downtown for a local to stop in for lunch. This is probably my favorite spot for a fresh meal which won't threaten to break the bank. They have 3 to 4 specials per day in addition to a broad but manageable standard menu. I would suggest ALWAYS checking the specials... more

The steak had a great flavor. The Pico sauce is really good and super fresh!! You'll want to buy some to take home. The restaurant is... more
