Asheville Proper is a live-fire steakhouse from husband and wife duo Owen & Mindi McGlynn offering a refined culinary experience without pretension to diners in Asheville, NC. Recently opened in August 2020, the restaurant exemplifies its reverence for carefully selected ingredients, bringing them to life over a custom hardwood-fueled grill. Executive Chef McGlynn and his culinary team stoke the fire and the menus to produce ingredient-driven, expertly crafted dishes with the help of best-in-class farmers, ranchers, and artisans from the surrounding regions. Evolving with the seasons, Asheville Proper offers an extensive selection of proteins “from the fire” alongside innovative small plates, composed dishes, and shareables. The live-fire experience also comes alive in the beverage program, which puts a twist on class cocktails through techniques such as barrel aging and smoke-infusions
