Luminosa

Luminosa is an Italian eatery bringing a hyperlocal lens to Italian cuisine, with a true commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship. As a zero-waste kitchen, Luminosa goes beyond the ordinary, butchering whole cows in-house and visiting local farmers' markets nearly every day to source the freshest ingredients. The pasta is handmade daily, a testament to the hard work and passion behind every dish.

Located at The Flat Iron Hotel, a historic, adaptive reuse boutique hotel in Asheville, North Carolina, the space evokes a cozy tavern atmosphere with warm, wood-centric design elements that complement the rustic Italian menu. Helmed by Executive Chef Graham House, Luminosa has a wood-burning oven at its heart, adding a "touch of fire" to handmade pizzas, pastas and locally sourced vegetables. Paying homage to Asheville's acclaimed brewery scene, the beverage program spotlights local brews, including an exclusive collaboration, alongside a diverse cocktail and wine list.

Part of The Indigo Road Hospitality Group, Luminosa was awarded a Michelin Green Star in 2025.
