Murasaki Asheville - Arden

Such great service, everyone was so friendly and helpful. Good food too! Will definitely be back!

Top 5 places to eat in Asheville. If you do not eat here when you are in the area, you have made a major mistake.

My partner and I come here all the time and it truly never disappoints. The staff is always friendly and always very helpful. You’ll never have an empty glass for long here if at all! The food is also such high quality, and you can tell they pride themselves on how fresh everything is. Special shout out to our favorite server Mindy, she’s always extremely kind and is always working hard!

Vegetarian options: They will let you know if the dishes have fish sauce or eggs or seaweed and they can sometimes omit these in the preparation. You can substitute tofu into almost any dish.

The sushi is pretty good. I think it’s the best in South Asheville by a margin. However, on multiple occasions I’ve placed a carry out order more than an hour before I intended to pick it up and it hasn’t been ready. I placed the order today before they even opened, so it must have been one of the first orders of the afternoon. I also gave them a buffer, showing up 15 minutes after my order was supposed to be ready…they hadn’t even started making my order yet. I’ve now been sitting in the car for 15 minutes outside with my kids waiting. They said they’d call me when it was ready so I could come grab it. They never called. I’d like my prepaid gratuity back please.
