Excellent - Edit
I had a Mixed Drink -- I forget what it is named -- that was excellent (it had a nice herbal infusion I do remember) and the "Family Favorite " based on one of the other positive reviews. Both were superb. I was more than satisfied.
Read moreThe vibe is very relaxing and friendly. I love the decor and decided to sit in their covered outdoor area, which was quite nice.👍

Comforting Southern Food! - Edit
My partner and I split the Veggie Nuggets and Tempalo Wings for appetizers as well as the Large Family Favorite with a side of Iron Skillet Cornbread as a shared main. The Nuggets were little hushpuppy-like triangles of flavor, and the Tempalo Wings were perfectly cooked with a nicely spicy buffalo sauce! The Family Favorite was large, indeed, as was the Cornbread. We enjoyed everything individually but didn’t feel like the peanut butter tofu flavor went as well with the rest. However, the savory mashed potatoes and gravy alongside the garlic and onion sautéed kale were delish, and the cornbread was a perfect addition!

Amazing selection of vegan food - Edit
WOW! What an amazing spot. I’m visiting, and my boyfriend has been raving about this food for weeks before our trip. The food did not disappoint. Everything has been amazing. I’ve tried their veggie burger, family favorite, curry, buddha bowl, and strawberry cake. Everything tasted great, and the staff was very friendly.

Nice menu, decent food - Edit
I would rate it good, not great (but the rating options go from fair to very good). In our group of 3, I had the tofu avo sandwich (excellent), the veggie burger was not great, the buffalo cauliflower was not crispy. The setting is nice - we sat outside. The menu sounds amazing and staff was friendly.

Pros: Menu, Outdoor seating, Tofu
Cons: Pay tip before finding out it’s “bus your own”, Veggie burger may be overhyped

OG vegan! - Edit
Vegan food has come a long way, but sometimes it’s nice to eat the simple plant based dishes of my baby vegan days. As always, I had the family favorite and it was perfect. They’ve also kept up with the atmosphere- it was light and airy with excellent service

Yay! Vegan food! - Edit
Food is great! The Belly Full with avocado is perfect filling and simple. I also got a piece of chocolate chip cake that was delicious. I don’t know how they do their frosting but it’s creamy and light. I ate here twice and the second time I got the cornbread and the patty melt. The patty melt needed a little hot sauce but was delicious and the cornbread was yummy.

Pros: Food, Service, Price
Cons: Would have liked a small flight option

pretty good restaurant but moderately high prices for what you get. - Edit
Service: 3/5, Quality: 4/5, Value: 2/5
Read moreVegan Options: 4/5
Overall: pretty good restaurant, moderately high prices for what you get, but food is good.
Longer version:
Service- you fill your own water, bus your own table, get your own to-go boxes. I really like this. Let's normalize this. But i mark 3/5 because their payment processor asks for tips. I didn't find that out until after I tipped and was left wondering what I tipped for.
Quality- food was mostly good. I got the house burger which is advertised as a house made patty but it is suspiciously like Aldis earth grown brand veggie burger. And i mean i couldn't tell the difference. The owner did confirm that it was all made from scratch. Now don't get me wrong--The burger was good but failed my expectations of a house made burger that i could've bought from the store. Rest of the food was pretty good.
Value- i left full but the price is quite high for what you're getting.
Vegan options- most things are vegan but some are not and clearly labeled. I only rate full points for all vegan restaurants.

Pros: fill your own water (i LOVE this), good quality food

Great portions and tasty vegan food - Edit
I think the prices are very reasonable for the portions. Two of us came hungry and shared the grill cheese, seaweed salad, and curry plate. We left full with leftovers.
Read moreGot some desserts to go and they were a little dry and lacking flavor, tbh. We either just couple of bad items or dessert is not their speacialty. Savory food was on point though!

Pretty good vegan gluten-free dishes - Edit
In the heart of downtown Asheville. You order at the counter and they bring it to the table. The menu consists of traditional dishes and sandwiches. Everything we had was pretty good. Love the fact that they offer a dish to anyone in need!

Decent - Edit
Rosetta’s is a nice space with friendly service. As an appetizer, I had the Veggie Nuggets, which were a bit oily and lacked texture. For the entree, I had the large Family Favorite, which had quite substantial portions of sautéed greens, mashed potatoes with gravy, and tofu. Overall I didn’t love it. Many people seem to love this place, so I’d say to order less at first and see how you feel about what you’re getting.

It’s so wonderful to find a place to eat plant-based /vegan and that in addition tastes good! We had the burger and the tofu sandwich on sourdough. Both delicious. Also loved their carrot cake.
