Dining out in North Carolina can be a bit of a challenge in just deciding where to go, and what style of food sounds perfect for the occasion. Luckily we never have to travel far for a great dining option. The next time you’re thinking Mexican, think again! There’s a Mexican restaurant in the Tar Heel State like no other and once you see it, you’ll want to go!

Limones is neatly tucked away on an unassuming side street and at the corner of an equally unremarkable alley in downtown Asheville. Throw every notion you have about Mexican restaurants out the window because, in every way, this one is top notch.

Limone's takes everything we all have come to know (and love) about Mexican food and infuses their menu with Californian flair. The Sea Bass above, for instance, is cooked to perfection and presented with Heirloom Squash Tomato Succotash, Mole Verde and Jicama Cucumber Pico de Gallo.

The high-end flair of the food spills over into the uniquely decorated space. Chandeliers adorn the ceiling, while colors and accents almost feel like a French indoor cafe. But.. this is North Carolina, remember? Which makes it all the better!

From soups and dreamy appetizers (think Lobster Nachos with crema, guacamole, and serrano — they had me at 'serrano'), to entrees that look familiar if you're seeking Mexican fare, but taste like nothing you can possibly imagine, Limone's is a must visit while in Asheville.
