Postero: A New American Dining Experience in Hendersonville

Sarah was our server. Super sweet. Delicious food. My parents raved about this place, but it was my first time. Holy smokes. I like that the menu changes frequently. We got the chips and whipped Gorgonzola dip, cured pork fig dip with pickled veg (wouldn’t order again), crab & corn app, mac & cheese, steak, shrimp pasta dish and the apple dessert. They had non alcoholic wine and beer, which as a pregnant lady, I get excited to see on the menu. 10/10 will return. The green goddess salad was simple but good too btw.

We started with the Brussels sprouts and they were phenomenal. Crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, they set the tone for the rest of the meal. We also ordered the mosaic plate which was a creative twist on a traditional hummus plate. Instead of hummus it had an eggplant base that was smooth and delicious, a great change of pace. For mains, I had the chicken and my wife had the ribeye. The chicken had a nice crispy texture that I really enjoyed, even though it leaned a little dry. The risotto served alongside it was absolutely immaculate, creamy and rich, the kind of dish you remember long after the meal. The ribeye had good flavor, though a little fatty, and it came with fries and a salad which made it a complete plate. We finished with the tiramisu and it was the perfect ending. Light, decadent, and beautifully balanced, it was so good that both of us agreed it elevated the entire experience. The food overall was creative and flavorful, the service was attentive, and the atmosphere made the evening enjoyable from start to finish. With dishes like these, especially the risotto, Brussels sprouts, and tiramisu, this place earns five stars without question.

During our vacation in Hendersonville, me and my wife decided to go out to eat at Postero one evening. Our reservation was at 7:45 and with the restaurant closing at 8:30, we were nervous the staff would be quick to serve us and try to rush us through our dinner service. We were seated upstairs and had a beautiful view of the kitchen and the outside street. Our server, Mrs Shannon, was extremely professional, explaining the menu clearly and efficiently while bringing out drinks and food in a timely manner. She described to us how she had worked there for over 10 years! Wow! What dedication! For our starter, we ordered the Chips and Dip. The house made BBQ potato chips paired well with the Gorgonzola Mousse, something I was originally hesitant to try. For main dishes, I ordered the Steak Frites while my wife ordered the Chicken. I asked for my steak to be cooked Medium-Rare and it was excellently prepared and tasted amazing. My wife’s chicken had amazing depth of flavor and was not dried out at all. Our personal favorite from these dishes were the Frites that came with my steak, they were well seasoned, crispy, and had the perfect temperature. For dessert we decided upon the Appalachian Tiramisu and the Dark Chocolate Pot De Crème. Both were exquisite and well prepared. Overall with a tip we spent around 170$ but the entire dinner, from service to flavors was phenomenal leaving nothing to be desired. If you are ever in Hendersonville and want an excellent evening dinner service, look no further than Postero.

This is the best place to eat in Hendersonville - and that is saying something. If you live in Kenmure, then you are already familiar with the chef's skills. If you are not, then get over to Postero and get familiar. We covered almost the whole menu. My side had the Cobia, and it was almost better than my dish. Dad had the steak, and he gave me the last two bites. I cut them with the side of my fork they were so tender. Mom had the lamb, and made me take a bite. Who knew I like lamb?? I think I have tried it twice and did not enjoy it either time. This was amazing. The Aromatic Demi-Glace had a hint of pepper and had just a little bite to it that brought the whole thing home. I had the Pan Seared Scallops, Corn, Potato and Summer Squash Chowder, Crispy Pancetta, Scallions and it was among the best I have ever had. It was so good I asked for bread to clean my plate, and they brought amazing plate of pieces of brioche with a miso butter. The bread is made fresh just down the street. If you like Old fashions then try the one here. Templeton Rye, Simple Syrup, Cherry Juice, Bitters. It started out a little on the "too sweet" side but it comes with one of those giant ice cubes. Once that melted a tiny bit, it smoothed it right out.

Outstanding dining experience. From the moment you enter Postero you sense a different kind of vibe. Was it the elegant restaurant setting, the tables not stacked on top of each other, the old school bar, the enormous kitchen, the wait staff, or all of it? A reservation is not required, but it certainly helps when you arrive and are immediately escorted straight to your table. As I mentioned before, the restaurant modern decor… very elegant. We were escorted to a table on the second floor overlooking North Main Street. The view of horse carriages moving up and down North Main Street added to a perfect evening. The wine card is extremely generous, and packed with excellent wine selections. The entrees were spectacular. We had the RedWine Braised Short Rib and Fried Trout. Both were mouth watering. Our guilty pleasure was the Dark Chocolate Pot de Creme. Simply perfect. While a reservation is not required, I highly recommend making one. No waiting! A special thanks to the Postero staff for an awesome evening.

Enjoyed a great evening and meal at Postero. State of with the chips and dip. Chips are crisp and flavorful and the dip was light and creamy. I had the grilled pork cup with sweet potato mash and griddled broccolini. It was all cooked and seasoned perfectly. Finished the meal with the maple pecan tart with vanilla bourbon ice cream! The only thing that would have made it beget is if it were bigger! It was the perfect size for a dessert, I just could have ate a lot more of it! And the service was great too.

Postero offers a refined dining experience in Hendersonville, with a focus on quality ingredients and elevated presentations. While the menu is quite limited and expensive, the dishes they do offer are crafted with care. We started with the tuna carpaccio, which was beautifully presented but unfortunately missed the mark. The sauce was overpowering-so dominant that it masked the delicate flavor of the tuna entirely. A more restrained touch would have let the star ingredient shine. The small BLT salad was a nice follow-up: crisp, fresh, and balanced with smoky bacon and a flavorful dressing. For the main course, we had the chicken large plate, which was the highlight of the meal. The chicken was perfectly cooked-juicy inside with a great sear-and the accompaniments were thoughtful and satisfying, making it a hearty and well-rounded dish. Service was okay, but not particularly memorable. Postero still delivers a strong dining experience overall. If you're looking for a creative, high-quality meal in Hendersonville and don't mind a limited and highly expensive menu, it's definitely worth checking out.

We called the day before to see if anything was available and were lucky to snag an early table - so glad we did! Postero ended up being our favorite meal of the trip. Everyone left happy and full after enjoying a variety of delicious dishes. The wine menu was excellent, and the staff was so friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!
