Our waiter, Daphne was superb. Great service and a fine dining experience. Delicious root vegetables and salad with pomegranate, squash, pecans, goat cheese. We had a wonderful evening and ended it by sharing the chocolate mousse which was decadent.

Creative, delicious, AND gluten free? Yes! We’ve been many many times over the years and Posana never disappoints. Logan was an attentive server and Peter is always a delight to chat with. The only slight drawback is the noise level seems to be getting louder. Beside that, we love Posana! You will to.

I was delighted there were Vegan options. I especially enjoyed the Grain Salad and the Pumpkin Spice Dessert. Everything was fresh and well seasoned.

Boy do I love Posana. These guys never disappoint. I am in here every few months, either by myself or with someone new, or someone else who loves them like I do. The food is always so good, and the service matches. I have truly never come away with a bad experience here. And I love the locals menu. Appetizer, entree, and dessert for $45? Can’t beat it; especially with the quality of food you’re getting.

I feel overwhelmed by the experience. As Asheville struggles to recover from Hurricane Helene, it was a great experience to dine at Posana. The wait staff was extremely accommodating and the food DELICIOUS! Thank you!!!

This is our second time in Asheville, dining at Posana and we can't wait to go back when we are in town again. There were four of us and we basically got the entire menu! (OK, that's an exaggeration, but we got a LOT of stuff!) The soup of the day was parsnip & cauliflower and it was outstanding. The two breads (biscuits and breadsticks) were amazing. The Brussel sprouts were a favorite. The trout was cooked so well as were the shrimp & grits (though I was VERY disappointed that they didn't take the tails off of the shrimp! Our hands got super dirty because of the sauce!). And for dessert we tried both the pumpkin tart and the chocolate mousse (both divine). It's especially perfect because we were dining with someone who has Celiac disease and this restaurant is gluten free, but you wouldn't know it with the food selection! Well done, Posana!

We had the most amazing evening at this Asheville gem. The service was outstanding. The food was perfection, and presented beautifully. The whole menu was gluten free, which was such a treat. The house made pasta, bread, and desserts were decadent. The ambience was lovely in the whole restaurant, we especially enjoyed the table in the window. Special thanks to Jesus, the Sommelier, for making our visit special.
