Almost oyster season but you would never know it because these were insanely good! Another top notch experience at our favorite coastal joint not on the coast! We always try something different and JR’s never disappoints!

First time here, and we had to start off with the striped bass ceviche. After that, I ordered a mixture of the dozen oysters, with an order of the bread service followed by the fisherman’s stew. Good drink menu, wonderful whiskey sours. And everything was terrific. Friendly staff and cool outside atmosphere. A must for any seafood lover! Will come again. Thanks

Good place for a bite of seafood in Asheville. The only drawback is parking- limited parking spaces at restaurant and we had to do street parking 2 blocks away.

Average Joe place charging way too much. We had blue cheese chips and probably the worst we’ve had . Cold with a blue cheese sauce. My crab cakes entree tasted like something made up at the Kroger seafood department . Paid $30 for two cakes, tasteless and array of rants. Again tasteless…

Was looking for seafood and found Jettie…nice little neighborhood place. My server Heather was great and took my order for oysters, a beer. I decided to try the Ciabatta Bread with Black Anchovies and for dinner I ordered the fish & chips. Love being able to try oysters from different harvest areas from the mild Beau Soliel to the extremely salty Ichabod. The Ciabatta Bread was good but I would pass on the Black Anchovies…not a fan of the texture or the high salt flavor. The fish was very good, thick and flaky but the fries were heavily salted and I asked Heather to replace them. Overall a good meal and great service.

Best seafood place I have ever been to. I ordered the striped bass ceviche for an appetizer which blew my mind. First time eating ceviche and it was amazingly fresh and wonderful. For my main course I ordered the Fishman’s stew. It was possibly the best stew I have ever had. The bread from OWL was a great touch as well. Plus great drinks! 10/10 would recommend to everyone.

Great spot! Everything we ate was delicious. Great vibe/decor inside. Service was excellent and knowledgeable (Shout out to Ed!). Oysters were fresh and prepared perfectly. Gotta try the oyster shooters! Good wine/beverage program. We balled out and spent a ton of money to celebrate a birthday but you can definitely do it for cheaper.

Seafood in Asheville…Yes way! And it’s super fresh and very delicious, remember when you get your bill it’s amazing seafood in the mountains and thus the prices are not cheap. However the oysters were amazing, best shucking I have had in 2022. The octopus was so tender and the dish so minimal but amazing flavor. The crab cakes with shishito peppers was an amazing pairing. The Brussels also were quite tasty. My wife said the Gin and Tonic was one of the top 3 she has had in her life. She ordered more than one…

This place was decently rated and I wanted some seafood. I tried raw oysters for the first time and they were great. I also had the calamari and it was delicious, too. My only complaint is that it seems to be a higher end place and the waitress acted like we were imposing on her when we ordered. She was extremely slow serving us even though I watched her stand around behind the bar. She never asked us if we needed refills or if if we needed anything else.

It’s upsets me to leave this review becuase we have always been huge fans of Jettie Rae’s since they opened, but my husband and I feel that the quality of the entrees have gone down for the prices. We didn’t love our food the last time we went, but decided maybe they had an off night & we should give it another shot this week. Sadly, we felt the same way when we left. It was the two of us and our bill was $170 and the food was just “good.” The food just didn’t live up to expectation given the price point. Love the ambiance, cocktails always amazing! Staff is super friendly. But not sure we will go back for a while. =(
