“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“We got hotdogs, a whole cheese pizza, & slush puppies to drink. We really enjoyed the food. We also ate outside overlooking the 7 states & the view was wonderful. We can’t wait to go back!”

“After several calls to Rock City Garden (no direct number to cafe), I wanted to check on this location for an anniversary lunch. I was given restaurant hours which included Monday’s. I was reluctantly transferred to cafe for other questions. Interestingly, the chef answered my call responding cafe was closed on Monday’s. Only light hor-d’oeuvre’s served on Monday’s which Rock City Gardens (how convenient when selling $50+ park passes) failed to disclose. The chef was strange up with help (5*’s); not so much with RCG’s. So Beware what’s lurking behind a phone call! Wish there was a way to Cafe 7 without going through a garden, particularly Rock City Garden.”

“Super disappointed that this particular Starbucks does not offer the full menu. That’s one of my biggest complaints with Starbucks. It blows my mind that all locations don’t follow the same standards.

That said, it’s a great location. Really cool spot, and if you enjoy history, check out the pictures on the wall. This building was an old gas station for nearly 100 years.”

“Beautiful Garden setting for wine time”

“Dinner was wonderful and they made it very special. Our server was amazing. We got to try new food that was spectacular. The server recommended so many good items from the menu. We will certainly be back for more!”

“Incredible dinner last night at Wooden City, had a group of 7 and everything was perfect - food, service, drinks, atmosphere. It was slammed busy on a Saturday night but zero hiccups with food or service. Perfect location, can’t wait to go back.”

“Skip if you are vegetarian. Few options beyond hummus, pita and the whipped feta. The falafel were the tiniest I have ever seen and only 3 were served. So small all there was to eat was the deep fried crust, no soft steaming yummy green inside to taste. I have never had falafel like that. Hard and crunchy. We left hungry and wishing we had gone somewhere else. Service was very good but for the prices, one would expect that. Just an OK experience.”

“We visited Amada Tapas & Wine on 11/22/2025 to celebrate our 39th anniversary, and from the moment we walked through the door, the evening felt special. We were greeted immediately, and within seconds of being seated, the owner, Amanda, came over to personally wish us a happy anniversary. She even placed a charming little sign at our seats—such a thoughtful touch that set the tone for the night. Choosing to sit at the bar turned out to be the best decision we could’ve made. Conner, the Bar Manager, was nothing short of spectacular. His warm personality, knowledge of the menu, and effortless hospitality elevated the entire experience. It truly felt like we were in great hands from start to finish. Conner walked us through the entire menu with genuine enthusiasm, offering thoughtful pairings and pointing out the dishes he felt we shouldn’t miss. His guidance made the ordering process feel effortless. He suggested we begin with the Endives, and it was a spectacular start—bright, crisp, and beautifully balanced, the perfect way to open the meal. From there, we moved on to the Chargrilled Octopus, paired with the Patatas Bravas. The combination was outstanding: the octopus tender with a hint of smokiness, the bravas perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of heat. Conner then recommended the Rainbow Trout, which we paired with the Roasted Carrots—a duo that was flavorful, delicate, and beautifully prepared. Throughout the evening, both Amanda and Conner remained incredibly attentive, striking that rare balance between professional service and warm, genuine conversation. Their hospitality truly elevated our anniversary celebration and made the entire experience unforgettable. We ended the night feeling genuinely cared for and completely delighted by every part of the experience. We highly recommend visiting Amada Tapas & Wine—if we could give it 10 stars, we absolutely would.”

“We loved our dinner here! Very impressed with the food, ambience, decor, and servers! Caden & Aubrey were both excellent servers, and Caden did a great job explaining the dishes and history of the restaurant! We will be back!”

“My husband and I were gifted some gifts cards and came tonight. The atmosphere is different for us but it was pleasant. The food was FANTASTIC and our server Jess was phenomenal! We asked so many questions and she knew all the answers. I had the spaghetti à la Americana and it was so flavorful and Smokey and absolutely delicious. My husband had the 2 layer lasagna and we were amazed at not only the size of it but the taste. We also shared the flourless chocolate cake with gelato and it was magnificent! Overall if we could star this 100x we would.”

“The food is outstanding! Service is excellent and the owner is the best… if you visit Chattanooga or a local this place is a must. ❤️🙌👌”

“Great little family owned restaurant. A group of 4 of us stopped on our way through from Florida and we will be back! Menu has something for everything and it was all delicious!”

“We visited the area for the first time since this gem opened. We had such an enjoyable experience and meal at the chef’s counter Friday night that we sat there again for Sunday brunch. We really enjoyed the staff and how committed and excited they are to put really great food out of the kitchen. We will definitely come back when we visit the area!”

“Rodizio Grill - Downtown Chattanooga is the best place for a nice meal with all the meats and delicious salads you can eat.”

“We LOVE Mr.T’s so much! This time we had their hot veggie sandwich and Cinnamon bread and both were so delicious . The atmosphere is always so friendly with awesome customer service also . We’re very thankful you brought a location to Ooltewah!!”

“I always have great service Chasity is a wonderful waitress and the food is delicious.👍🏻👍🏻”

“Great Portions, Great Prices and the Quality was divine. Delicious Food. Will be back.”

“Thanks for taking care of Eli Mak your great.”

“One of my local favorites. Put a little SOUTH in your mouth. 😉”

“Took my parents to Boathouse for dinner while they were in town. They loved it! 10/10 recommend this restaurant. Definitely take advantage of the outdoor seating for some beautiful views!”

“Food was fresh and felt home cooked. All employees I talked to were so friendly and helpful.”

“Since 2018 the wife & I have frequented Bridgeman's. We have never been disappointed by the staff & more importantly the food. Sadly life is moving us down to Florida but future forward when back in Chattanooga area we will come to Bridgeman's to eat & hopefully Derrick will still be there as he has for so many years taking care of us.”

“While the atmosphere is charming, the front end staff ok-to-good, and the food looked good, my experience was somewhat less than this. I will give them the benefit of the doubt this time and try them again someday. I’m bothering to leave a review because I know it is important for restaurants, especially, and not doing so helps no one… We, perhaps, challenged them today by having a party of twelve, however, a well organized team would have risen to that occasion. Our food was late, forty minutes late, arrived piecemeal, and mostly cold. Most just accepted this, I did not. Though my entree looked ‘ok’ it was cold. Greasy, cold, over cooked potatoes are not something you serve, ditto a breakfast burrito. Teamwork among the staff seemed lacking. Our server seemed to lose us in the fray. Today was a cool day, breezy, yet in spite of that the place was wide open with garage doors up and we had to ask several times to close a nearby door that was repeatedly propped open by staff. I spoke to a manager regarding my entree but it apparently did no good, as I never did get the fresh hot entree she promised and bummed a slice of pizza from someone in our party. I’ll be honest; the pizza was good! You eat even cold pizza when you’re hungry… As I said, I will try these folks again in hopes of a better experience.”

“The lamb Saagwala was DELICIOUS!”

“Great selection of beers! Friendly staff. Loved the outdoor beer garden and dog park. Veteran owned. Will definitely be back”

“The staff are great and so friendly. We so enjoyed our meal, food was great.”

“The best beer selection of any brewery I’ve ever been to and I’ve been to around 100. They have a style and flavor for anyone that likes beer and as an added bonus, their pizza is just as good. Would recommend no matter which location you’re closest to!”

“A brunch all day restaurant is the perfect addition to the southside. I walk here, but there is a nice free parking lot adjacent. The bagels are the real deal, the tots are delicious, great options for everyone. I have loved everything I’ve tried. So far, my favorites: the French toast, the avocado toast with egg, and I love their thin crust pizza. Drinks, coffee drinks, great service - all the things that make me happy!”

“The best vegan meal! Thank you for making us a delicious lunch on our way home from the Smokies! My gut and body needed that💝”
