Such great food! They have a bunch of vegan and vegetarian options too that are so good. Such a cute space too! The staff that work here is always so welcoming and friendly! Definitely one of my favorite spots!

I had an amazing experience at Polanco, which offers a diverse menu catering to meat lovers, vegans, vegetarians, and those seeking gluten-free options. I’ll definitely return to explore more of the menu if I’m ever back in town.

Absolutely 15/10 experience thanks to Satchel. Without that man, probably a 7/10. Food was 10/10 for me. It is tapas so plan accordingly. If you want dinner order 2-3 items. I loved the food and drinks were fine. Satchel though, he helped my friends and I have a great time. If Satchel isn't there, it's not worth it.Only complaints, on a Saturday night very low staffed. Was expecting a good margarita, pretty it was just marg mix and some tequila in a wine glass. And it was really dark inside, like no lighting to see what you were eating or the people around you.But I will definitely be back next time I come to Asheville, as long as Satchel is working.

Great spot. I loved the vegan options.

The restaurant only had one other couple...guess we did not need reservations. Out of many things on menu including the guacamole. Food was fair...not elevated and maybe not as tasty as our neighborhood inexpensive Mexican restaurant. At least our neighborhood restaurant has everything that is printed on menu. Will probably not return. Disappointing for a special occasion.
