1. Good Hot Fish

    Seafood

    Tucked into Asheville's brewery-heavy South Slope, Good Hot Fish is a casual counter-service seafood spot doing a traditional fish fry with real Southern soul. The fish sandwich alone is worth the trip, cornmeal-crusted and properly crunchy in a way that makes you rethink every sandwich you've had before. The crowd is relaxed, the space is small, and the neon fish out front means you won't walk past it twice.
