Vivian was born as a humble tabletop pop-up inside Burial Beer in 2015. But with its move four years ago to a River Arts District brick-and-mortar, it has matured into a celebrated anchor of Asheville’s restaurant scene. Owners Shannon and Josiah McGaughey offer an agile cross-pollination of European food traditions with Appalachian ingredients and flavors. Lyonnaise scallop quenelle and Nordic deviled eggs with smoked fish and caviar are signature dishes, but other options rotate with the seasons. Sunday brunch is a special treat, with recent offerings ranging from lobster parfait to a deep-fried chicken biscuit with sausage gravy and eggs.

Fun Fact: Frederick Law Olmsted designed Central Park as his first project and the Biltmore Estate as his last project. We heard from our shuttle driver that he put a lot of thought into the approach to the house. As you drive in, you never get a glimpse of the house so that when you finally enter the gates, there’s a moment of awe when it appears.
