Deliciouss food! Highly recommend if you are visiting Asheville. Allll of the items on the menu were incredibly delicious to try. I really enjoyed the Nine Mile with jerk chicken and the salad dressings were amazing. I loved the His Majesty’s dressing, unreal .

They were having city water issues after Hurricane Helene, but are back in full force again. My meal was absolutely excellent!

One Love in Asheville, and it is Nine Mile! This is one of my hubby's favorite spots from when he lived in Asheville years ago. He was not wrong. It was the bomb! The salads were small plates of perfection with delicious dressing options. We actually bought and took home two bottles (one Jalapeno Lime and one His Majesty's) to Atlanta. I wish we could order some to have shipped to us! I am only semi-familiar with Caribbean food, and was not expecting noodles. I loved it all! I wish we had a Nine Mile in ATL,but we don't. I guess I have to order some sauces and hope that I can figure it out, because I am not sure that I can live without it now that I've had it, and 4 hours is a long commute for dinner. Hands in heart shape will go again!

We. Choose to sit outside at a table ( beautiful evening ) it was a bit loud with traffic and people/dogs walking by. We had a friendly, attentive waitress. ALL the food we ordered was amazing. Plenty of food we brought home leftovers. We will go back. The people we were with rate Nine Mile top 3 places to eat in Asheville.

Visiting Asheville. Thrilled to have a quality experience at Nine Mile. Ordered Soup, Nacho, Salad and Jerk Chicken Entree and I would order everything again and will think about the unique tastes that I cant access anywhere else until my return. Staff is kind and hardworking and ambience is chic Jamaican.

The food here is great. We loved how fresh everything tastes, and everything that comes out of the kitchen smelled really good. The basmati rice is very tasty and the jerk chicken was great. Had some heat but not overpowering (I asked for medium heat). Only negative is that it was very difficult to find parking as it is surrounded by residences and we did not want to block any driveways.

In Asheville visiting family. Ate at Nine Mile and the food we had was delicious. I had the Nolan, with shrimp and scallops in a coconut sauce. The dish, served with just the right amount of al dente' linguine, was perfectly executed. Beers we had were local and good. Not an unknown spot by locals, but visitors might walk by. If you're in Asheville, stop, go in and have yourself a fantastic meal. Kudos to management, the food and staff were great.
