Lovely restaurant for brunch with very efficient service and several delicious options. The atmosphere was great and there is outdoor seating as well. Plus they source with locally grown organic ingredients. You can get a variety of items for brunch ranging from soups, crepes, empanadas, tamales, benedicts, etc. They also have a wonderful list of sweet crepes.

The experience of dining outside with the sun shining was fabulous. The patio is large, plenty of space, and the tables are cute. If they ever throw a block party style event here, it would be so cool, the location is perfect.
Our waitress with the long feather earrings was a damn delight. She was friendly, attentive, and when there was an issue with receiving the wrong item, she resolved it beautifully, which I super appreciate.
The niçoise salad my friend got was large and she seemed happy with it. The dressing we both got was incredible - some balsamic situation that was perfectly balanced.
The sausage patty was well seasoned. The fruit in the fruit plate was fresh and flavorful. The beef in the carne empanada was well seasoned.
Now for the less than stellar bits:
The mushroom tamale was bizarre. The filling was underseasoned and contained roughly one and a half button mushrooms; the masa was bland and bordering on gummy. A bummer, because it came beautifully wrapped in the corn husk
The breakfast potatoes were good, par boiled before making so they were cooked through and seasoned with a tasty rosemary blend. I wish they were a bit crispier.
The food was solid, the mimosa was (properly) mostly champagne, the prices were reasonable, and the ambiance was sweet. I'd definitely come here again.

Came here for a light lunch with my boyfriend while on our vacation in Asheville. We were not disappointed. I got the French Onion soup and he got a ham and swiss crepe. Both were served very fresh and delicious!

Cecelia's was suggested by my son. He'd had the Cubano sandwich from the food truck a few times, and we decided to go to the restaurant. It was excellent from the greeting and seating until we left. Ample parking, great, friendly staff (Rachel was great), fantastic menu (so good!), and a very comfortable atmosphere. We had lunch, and I can't WAIT to visit for the brunch menu. This place is so worth the visit and the prices are really good for the great food you receive. Thanks, Cecelia's staff!

The customer service was totally what you’d love to experience at every establishment. They were all wonderful. The atmosphere was clean and friendly. The salads were delicious. The Cuban sandwich was good. We were not fond of the authentic tamales. Maybe we were expecting the taste to be like traditional Mexican tamales. Otherwise, this place is a nice place to eat.

The place looks a little deserted from the outside, but it is a cute place to hang out! Staff were very friendly and helpful. The tamales and the empanadas were delicious! (Highly recommend the tamales) the smoked salmon crepe was VERY cheesy, a bit too much for me. Otherwise I really enjoyed it!

Cecilias is a wonderful break from the many standard quick service, high tempo restaurants around Asheville. They offer a calm sophisticated feeling atmosphere and a tempting menu mix that includes French and Latin dishes.
