Wood-fire kitchen & wine bar · Asheville
Cooked over oak, shared at a long table.
At Sorrel
- Fire
Everything meets the coals
Oak and a little almond wood, lit every afternoon. There’s no gas line in our kitchen.
- Light
Lit by candle
Every table gets a candle, and the room is kept low and warm all night.
- Share
Plates for the middle
Order a few and pass them around. The kitchen sends them out as they’re ready.
- Wine
Small growers, open bottles
A short list that changes often, and always something by the glass you haven’t tried.
- Late
The bar stays up
A few plates keep coming from the fire for the bar, right up to last call.
