The Smokin' Onion
What you need to know
The Smokin' Onion is a fully vegan restaurant and food truck on Haywood Road in West Asheville, run by chef Parker Schultz and Kiimia Schultz. The kitchen makes nearly everything from scratch, including the seitan, breads, sauces and dressings. The restaurant serves vegan breakfast and lunch, with plates like The Town gyro, the Cluckin' Good sandwich, burgers and Brussels sprouts. It's a Just Economics certified living-wage employer.
Local's Tip
The restaurant is closed Tuesday through Thursday, but on Tuesdays the food truck parks at New Belgium Brewing in the River Arts District. Grab your food and eat inside with a beer.
What the locals say
Locals who eat here often point first to The Town gyro, and the hand-cut fries tossed with smoked onions come up nearly as often. The truck started rolling in 2021 and still sets up at breweries and events around Asheville, so plenty of people find it before they find the restaurant.
