Japanese street food and Astro and bubble teaBlack Mountain, NC
konnichiwa was born of a desire to bring customers a taste of modern-day Japanese street food. We want people to think outside the bento box, try cultural favorites that are being served at the hottest corner spots in Tokyo. Or, make your meal the way you want it, using the Creation Station format to construct a custom dish of your liking. You can look forward to a continuously expanding menu along with limited time specials that will allow us to flex our culinary muscles.

Konnichiwa, ko-n-ni-chi-wa
こんばんは :
is used as a greeting in Japanese, meaning hello or good afternoon. So, “konnichiwa” Black Mountain!
Country-chic eatery for Southern classics, including skillet-fried chicken, pimento cheese & trout.
Boone Saloon was born from a desperate need for a watering-hole that was geared for full grown adults. Sure the college kids would come – we are a college town after all. But, we needed a comfortable, clean place where conversation was revered, quality service and food was appreciated, and style was a heavy consideration.
We started with an old white oak tree that we carved out to be the 25 foot, live edge, bar. Then we tore down all the sheetrock and drop ceilings, ripped up the carpet, and let the building show itself. After we built the stage, built an outside covered deck and added our GameChanger Arcade we were ready to go.
