This is the kind of place that makes me excited to run through the menu. I take a methodical approach, repeating the same item several times until I feel I have sufficiently understood the nature of the offering. The buffalo chicken sandwich is one of those flavor islands you don't mind being washed up on. The care and skill in preparation is evident even before the first bite. The sauce is a respectful homage to Crystal that all fans of this most delicious hot sauce will enjoy. Once settled in to the sandwich, the freshness of ingredients immediately stands to the front. Lettuce is green and flavorful, and tomatoes are red and taste like they were picked out of the backyard garden. Smile-inducing dilly pickles have a fresh flavor and crunch that sets the sandwich apart. Housemade chips are not to be underestimated. These are perfectly browned to perfection and taste like a potato should. The crunch is as loud as the flavor. I ordered some ranch to dip them in and am convinced this is one of the most delicious house ranches I have ever tried. It's thick, but just right, and tastes farmhouse fresh with a pop of flavor. I will be unlocking more gems of Sand Hill soon and hope you share this special place too and take care of these talented folks who work hard to bring us this goodness so consistently.
Update: Let's talk about breakfast burritos and grit cakes. On one side of the burrito, a gorgeous seal of browned cheddar is expertly applied. Inside is scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage (or both!), home fries, cheddar, and herbed Duke's in a flour tortilla. A most stout, portable breakfast fit for the gods.
Let me tell you, once you bite into one of these triangular cakes from the outer realm, you will be transported to a place of pure warmth and comfort. The crispy coating on the outside provides a most pleasing structure and hand feel, and when you bite into one, it's cheesy grit bliss. I firmly believe this item pulls the whole country together. No matter if you are a born and bred local or a midwesterner whose idea of grits is malt-o-meal, this is the great equalizer. A perfectly self-contained flavor slam that feels as good for you as it tastes.
I often order the specials here as they are actually special, not just something they need to move!
Desserts are off the chain delicious and vary from day to day. There's always something new on the table.
Service is excellently executed: quick, accurate, and delightful.
There are only a handful of restaurants in town that understand that people want food that's not just tasty but filling, nutritious, well-textured, affordable, and served with a cool mountain vibe. Other restaurants in town take note of the core values that make SHK work.

Out on a Saturday morning on the west side of Asheville and hungry for a good breakfast? Need to gas up your vehicle and your bone mech in one fail swoop?Drive up for gas at the BP on Sardis Road and there is a fantastic restaurant inside. Sand Hill Kitchen has turned into a solid food spot and you are going to get some solid food inside. 👌 Breakfast at Sand Hill Kitchen is one of the hidden gems you'll find in local gas stations. I had already finished a first breakfast and decided to go full hobbit and have a second breakfast since the wife showed up with SHK.
The wife and I shared their SHK Special Breakfast Burrito which has bacon, home fries, eggs, cheese and mayo. I was just gonna have a bite but the bacon hit me and the burrito disappeared like magic. It was well balanced, loads of eggs, bacon, and home fries inside. (Some of the bacon had a tough outer rind that was inedible but that was the only downside to it)
We also had an order of their biscuits and gravy which consisted of a large homemade square biscuit that was soft and buttery; and an unhealthy amount of sausage gravy (kidding of course, give me all the gravy!!)That gravy was divine and had a great deep flavor due to what I figure was a good roux and was well balanced with salt and pepper.
100% will be back to try the burrito picantè and get another order of the Biscuits and Gravy. Sand Hill Kitchen also has lunch/dinner... so I may have a new grub spot for sandwiches.
