    My wife’s chicken piccata (?) was dry and overcooked. Somehow it tasted good anyway. On the other hand my meatballs dish was decidedly not as good. I ate two pieces and left the rest to be thrown away. Our shared caprese salad starter was tasty, although not the best quality mozzarella. All together I’ll be looking to eat elsewhere next time I’m in Hendersonville.

    I loved the salmon. It was great to have a non-pizza option. (Although I did try a friend’s pizza and it was excellent)

    Great thin crust pizza with lots of options to customize. Wish they had more dark (stouts/porters) beers. Great service and usually you need a reservation.

    West First is always our "go-to" restaurant. The quality of the food never varies - its always GREAT! I absolutely love their house salad!! PIzzas are definintely the best in Hendersonville and so many choices to make your own unique pie. Crust is thin and crisp! YUM. The wait staff are all friendly and efficient, bartenders excellent! Best to make a reservation - they are always busy.

    The pizza is out of this world - with enough options to please everyone. I recommend a salad to go with the pizza…even their simplest house salad is far above what you get at most places. Have yet to try the pasta dishes but I can safely assume all dishes are made with the freshest and finest ingredients available. Highly recommend.
