Fany’s Island Kitchen — Restaurant in Dillsboro

The food is amazing! It's about time the area got some good Dominican food.

For soulful and savory I recommend the fried chicken, empanadas (vegetarian, beef, pork, chicken, etc.), chimi burger, or dos bolas (perfect for picky eaters).

Good people,...

This place is absolute top-notch. Their empanadas are exquisite. The dos bolas was fantastic. The only complaint I have is they need bigger size cups for their sauce. It is also fire. And then also they gave me these other like meet ball things. I can’t find them on the menu, I didn’t order them. But they where...
