Eleven tables, 32 seats, and no corner to be put in.

Drawn rather than photographed, because a photograph of a dining room is a photograph of a dining room. This tells you the thing you actually want to know before booking for six.

Plan of the dining roomA single rectangular room. The kitchen pass runs along the top edge. Eleven tables are arranged in three loose rows: four two-tops along the left wall, three four-tops through the middle, a mixed row on the right, and one two-top by the window at the far end. The entrance is at the bottom left.KITCHEN AND PASS22224442442WINDOWHAYWOOD ROAD
Two four-tops push together for six or eight. Anything larger is the whole room, which is a different conversation.

The week

Wednesday is the easiest night to get a table and Thursday is the best night to eat here. Both of those are true and we would rather say so.

Tuesday
Deliveries land between seven and ten. Nadia writes the menu by noon and it goes up that night. The room is dark.
Wednesday
Shopping for what the menu needs that the farms did not bring. First service at six. Quietest night, easiest to book.
Thursday
The night the kitchen likes best — the menu has been cooked once and it has settled.
Friday
Both seatings full most weeks. Book four weeks out.
Saturday
Full. If you want a Saturday, the day bookings open is the day to take one.

Getting here

On Haywood Road in West Asheville. Street parking either side, and a lot behind the block that is free after six. The room is small and has a hard floor, so it is a good room for four people talking and a poor one for a table of ten trying to hear each other.
