Here on NYE, got a spot at the bar , immediately acknowledged, drinks minutes later. Excellent bartender advice on an unknown quantity (sake ). Also this place is cool AF.
This is a semi-indoor/semi-outdoor restaurant and bar . I was surprisingly impressed with the environment and bar . Food was good but not amazing. Good for a date.
What a fun spot for American sake and fusion food. Loved the casual vibes and quick service . Open-air space and shaded for sunny days.
I really liked the chips they use for the nachos . They are crust wontons which is delicious and quiet a surprise. The atmosphere very laid back . The only complaint is the wait staff not friendly .
A neat outdoor place to eat & drink. Lively atmosphere , eclectic decor . They have some house brews (I chose Ben's Cran Saison), plus some other local/regional craft brews .
The fried tofu and house made sake ! I really wish they had Sapporo !!! A cool little beer garden with Giant Jenga to play with your gang!
The menu, like the kitchen, is small. Playful, too. Supple “Bad Buddha” pork dumplings show up in a steamer basket with pineapple shot through with ginger Read more
The house made apple cinnamon sake was wonderful (get it hot!) and the ramen was the best I've had in Asheville.
Sake is very unique. Get a flight!!
Outstanding atmosphere great service one of my new top 10s in Asheville highly recommend everyone to check this place out !
Really cool patio but just bear in mind its mostly outdoor seating so not a-lot of covered area. Try the sake sangria !
Asian fusion . Food is great. Libations, hard & soft intriguing. Even nice desserts !
Ben's Tune Up. Formerly a garage , now a savory and sensational delight for Asheville. I tested it five times before my final grade of "Absolutely yes".
The late night menu is where it's at. The jalapeño pineapple sake blew my mind ????????
Anytime I walk into a liquor store and immediately see a sign that says "Live Bait" it feels like home.
One of the best things about Ben's: the atmosphere changes constantly. Never the same experience, in a good way!
Very nice courtyard . Wasn't a fan of the sake flight since it was nothing like Japanese sake .
Had never even heard of this place. A very interesting venue and menu. Check it out it's worth the experience.
One of the best outdoor dining spaces I've experienced.
The most awesome atmosphere for hanging out with friends! Food is weird. It sounds good on the menu but....nnnnooo.
Pre-pare to wait for close to 20mins for a drink. As stated here and elsewhere this place is a cluster fvck. Great place if your a 20 year old dude bro tho.
Sake Brewery . Hot Apple is the best. $9 flights 3-up.
Great ambiance during the day or late at night. Sake is homemade .
Interesting place! Be sure to check out the store!
The space is kick ass, the food tries but comes up a little short
Good place to hear some music after the restaurant closes.
There is a cover, lame. But the music rocked the night I went. Not that crowded but I'm from nyc
Try their house made sakes !
Love the atmosphere! Menu not so much!
pineapple jalapeño sake
Crab rangoon dip and blue hawaii drink. Yum
Food is good. Sake is good quality
The pork egg rolls are good
This is our new go-to spot.
Now serving food till 2am
The atmosphere is great
Cool atmosphere!
Guys: when you walk into the restroom and don't see urinals; don't be alarmed, you are not in the women's bathroom . There just isn't any urinals.
Hmmm..... Just served myself some water because my server is now chillin with her friends.... Just sayin
Such a great place and food is lovely.
Awesome atmosphere
Bens ramen is really good

Ate there last night. Recommend the tempura shrimp volcano roll. Great chefs and top notch wait staff. - Bradford Sprinkle
I'm not a sushi eater. But this is one of the best Japanese restaurants I've ever been to anywhere. Many options for people like me and absolutely delicious. Great staff, too! - Evin Willman
Did the Ginza tasting menu - 13 dishes later and you had to roll me out. It was all delicious, and the ambiance/service was great - Kate
Awesome (and dog-friendly) patio. Escape Artist and Perfect Day IPA are excellent. - Valerie Schwartz
Excellent craft beer bar. Upscale vibe with lower-level to get your corn-hole fix. Overall, just a cool place to enjoy world-class brew with your work crew! - Nick Aguirre
