If you’re looking for a true foodie go‑to on the south side of Asheville, you absolutely must check out Abuela’s Little Kitchen. Nestled right near the corner of Long Shoals Rd and Hendersonville Rd in Skyland/Arden, this spot has become a staple for breakfast, brunch, and lunch — and for good reason.
Have You Been to Abuela’s Little Kitchen in South Asheville?


Why It Stands Out
From the moment they opened in 2020 — yes, right in the middle of the pandemic — this little gem has steadily grown and earned loyal fans for its warm hospitality and delicious, joyful food. What started as a brave venture during a tough time has blossomed into a favorite local hangout.

What to Expect
– Traditional American breakfasts, brunch dishes, pancakes, crepes, French toast, omelettes — all done beautifully.
– A strong Latin twist throughout: think Latin‑style brunch options, flavor‐driven dishes, chilaquiles, huevos rancheros, etc.
– One crowd‑pleaser: “chicken & pancakes” in lieu of the usual chicken and waffles — and yes, it tastes just as fun (and tasty) as it sounds!
– Lunch comes in both American and Latin styles, so you can mix it up and try something new each time.
