We loved our food and experience here. We had the eggplant parmigiana and chicken parmigiana. Both were delicious, and the decor and music was very nice. It was nice and intimate.
Took a risk on Mufaletta. Can be hit or miss at places. Was a welcome surprise. Crispy and tasty. More food than I can eat. Lori got Seafood Mistook salad, a play on ceviche, an diy is top notch. I’d eat here again. Service very good.
Meh. Slow service, moderate food, smaller portions and high prices. Not worth it. (In my opinion)The Lamb burger was so-so. The ‘infused house specialty’ ketchup tasted the exact same as the Heinz in my fridge. Not much of a portion of the Grape Leaf dish.01 Jan, 2015Meh.

Modesto was Fantastico. After a friend told us this is her favorite italian restaurant in all of Asheville we found ourselves parked right outside it on some downtown errands so we decided to try it for lunch. We know that we like others of Hectors restaurants but hadn’t yet been here. I’ve been to Italy twice with a third trip coming up and my husband once with me. Our lunch experience was incredibly delicious. The restaurant is lovely and we would have like to sit outside but the only tables available were in the sun so we sat inside by the window. We ordered the baby artichokes in orange basil sauce, the Caesar salad and the eggplant parm. with spaghetti. The salad was without a doubt the BEST we have ever had anywhere. Just the flavors were perfect, right amount of cheese with tangy dressing. We cleaned the plate. The artichokes had a wonderful flavor and were cooked perfect. The eggplant was breaded more with panko which made it light and crunchy. It was just perfect. Sauce excellent. We had a Peroni beer with it to top it all off. If anything was missing, it was some bread to sop up the sauce on the artichokes and the salad dressing I couldn’t scrape off the plate. In looking at the menu we realized that we share a lot, but if we had each gotten our own meals it would have been very pricey. There was plenty for us to eat sharing and we left full. We are going to splurge and go back again for sure. The service was great, the food amazing. Outside of Italy never had it so good.
Very disappointing! The ingredients were there but the execution was just poor. This was not Italian food. This was American food with an Italian spin….if that. I ordered the octopus salad and the lamb rag. The octopus was very chewy and not meaty as it should be. The rag was good. The lamb was tender and not overly gamy. The gnocchi were cooked well but the dish came with a heap of arugula on top. I’m not sure what made them think that was appetizing or Italian. Not worth the amount I spent.
Seafood pasta and steak Marsala were a riot of flavors! Skip the pumpkin martini and the bread pudding!
Delightful lunch. I have eaten at Modesto on several occasions. Meals have always been delightful. Service is knowledgable, friendly and efficient.Menu is varied and interesting. Its always hard to decide what to order.Pricing is competitive and fair. I am surprised the rating isn’t higher. Oh well, better chance that it won’t be too busy the next time I want to go
