i'll be in asheville in a couple weeks, and it looks like they have resies avail. probs going to hit it up. though looking at the menu i have a hard time believing it will top my fave new restaurant old bus tavern (also added to sf top 100 and named one of the best new spots in sf along with the 2 listed here).
 
I looked up a couple. The one in Philly is showing up being closed. Cala is 4* or below on Trip Advisor and other sites. Kinda weird.
 
Kanella South is certainly not closed.

It was showing up closed for the day when you looked. Opens at 5 ET. And I would never put full stock in a place's star rating on Yelp or TripAdvisor. Crowd sourced review sites are very flawed.

Which place is that? I don't want eat somewhere with wrong toilet paper.
 
Those sites are good for when you're traveling somewhere to get a quick idea of what's good or not, but you have to study the responses to see which are plants, which are by donks, and which are legit.

Kanella is phenomenal if you like greek food - their sunday prix fixe is amazing, you order either vegeterian or meat and they bring out whatever the chef decided to cook that day, all served family style - everything is good. I went to the old Kanella all the time.
 
only one Hipster & Gofuckyourself name, and of course it's in DC. We winning!
 
OpenTable is the best site/app to use when checking reviews. The reviewers have to have had actually made a reservation and dined there to review. It's also really helpful for restaurants because it puts the date of their review as the date that they dined there instead of the date that they wrote the review.
