  • I can hardly believe how remiss I have been, ones here at least ten times, without giving my perspective on the Local Joint. They put the LOCAL in "local." It IS local, in so many ways. And that's good, because local is generally fresher, and the farmers care more about their local reputation. When their neighbor eats their produce, they know the word will get out. The food & beverage is sourced locally, as much as possible. Local beers, veggies, and meats are featured attractions here, but even the shrimp come from North Carolina waters. And they proudly list their local vendors on the chalk board, along with the specials. Speaking of shrimp. their shrimp & grits is better than the Sunset Terrace at the Grove Park, or anything I've had in the low country. The creamy sauce/gravy is light, but plenty delectable, perfectly cooked good size shrimp that would not embarrass a New Orleans seafood restaurant, and slice of Fried Green Tomato make this dish simply out of this world. The price is only $17 for such a delight. Other signature dishes we tried are great, too, and the burgers and Reuben are juicy, with the right amount of quality ingredients. The "Joint Next Door" is a lounge on the other side of the Eblen Quick Stop, owned by the same people, featuring live music, with food supplied by the Local Joint, of course. One night, the musicians stopped over at the Local Joint, and serenaded us in an impromptu concert, quite fun! Don't take my word for it, other Yelpers praise the Local Joint, and it got the Blue Ribbon Prize for "Best Overall" food at the final Bele Chere festival in 2013. My only warning, don't sit at the booths close to the convenience store entrance, because the doors will open, and the rest rooms are just beyond those doors, So if antiseptic odors interfere with your dining... Is Fairview too far? It all depends on your perspective. People from big cities think nothing of driving 30+ minutes for a great dining experience, whereas Ashvilleians tend to avoid crossing the French Broad River, if they can. For a change, you might want to dine "out." Out of town, at the Local Joint.
