Excellent food and friendly service. I was looking for a place that served something more than the usual kind of sandwich fare and this fit the bill! The ham and brie panini is delicious. I wouldn't describe it as tapas as the name suggests. There are full entree options and appetizers if you want. I'm only in town for a week and have already visited twice.

I absolutely love this new restaurant. Sane owners as Cafe La Gaule. I get the Crepes express with mascarpone cream instead of Nutella. Skillets look fantastic and the fact that they use fresh farm eggs is amazing. You can taste the quality in the food here and you know it's made with love.

Great place. I came in for tapas and they had a wonderful assortment of cocktails and wines which paired beautifully with the dishes (patatas bravas, grilled Spanish octopus, chicken skewers and escargot were my favorites) and would highly recommend. The atmosphere was welcoming and upbeat with young but punctual, friendly servers. The pricing was high but more than worth it. I will be returning.

We stopped in for desserts at the new spot in Tryon! They were absolutely delicious! Very friendly staff and attentive. Enjoyed a glass of champagne. Our kids loved the macrons and chocolate pyramid. My husband enjoyed the chocolate chip cannoli! Great place! Can't wait to return to try lunch!

We love the food at Marengas. It has a great combination of traditional comfort food and high end European cuisine. The service makes us feel like regulars and we can bring our sweet dog to dine with us on the patio. We come from Asheville just to eat here!
