14 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Alcoa

“Excellent customer service!“

“Great food and wonderful service.“

“I finally found authentic Jersey food, in East Tn! Absolutely phenomenal!!!“

“Good and greasy! It’s been 20 years since having Waffle House and this was just as I remembered it.“

“We love eating at Texas Roadhouse. Good food at a great price. This evening we dined there and we had the nicest, most attentive server we have ever had. Kim did an amazing job and she is the reason that I decided to post. From now on if she is working we want her to be our server!“

“I have lived here since 1979, snd this is the first time I have ever tried this place. WOW! It is the best Chinese I have had in the area.“

“Cheddars does well. Leah was our server and she was fantastic. Kind, patient, and got our order correct. Something we all know can be a challenge when dining out.

Even as two elderly ladies behind us have her a hard time, she held her poise, kept her cool, and quelled the situation.

So why 2 stars for the food and atmosphere? Well, the food here is just okay. There’s nothing special about it, and it’s priced accordingly.

The atmosphere is hit or miss. Sometimes you get sat in a wide open space, and the massive fish tank is a nice touch. Tables like “Table 1”, however, are less awesome. A little hole of a table with a main lane on one side, and right in front of the kitchen. VERY BUSY! Not a very peaceful atmosphere to dine in.

I never see anyone eating on their back patio for some reason. The bar doesn’t get busy EVER. And new faces are seen here constantly, indicating high turnover and poor management.

The hostess and person that seats you are not awesome. They don’t smile, speak to you as they seat you, or even say anything to you after you sit down. They just walk away like “whatever.”

Someone with some dining knowledge and management skills should take over here. It has potential, but it’s obvious that management has no presence or skill in professional development.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Experience at Salsarita’s!

I had an absolutely fantastic visit to Salsarita’s. The food was fresh, flavorful, and honestly some of the best I’ve had in a while. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. The manager was walking around checking on customers, asking how everyone’s day was going, and genuinely making sure people were taken care of.

He even offered me free chips, which was such a kind and unexpected gesture. Little things like that make a huge difference and really show how much they care about their customers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“I got the sweet and sour chicken with an order of steamed broccoli to cure a hangover and it was exactly what I needed - the food is wonderful, and the service was so nice. I ordered over the phone and came in to pick up my order, but I was still a little jealous of everyone enjoying the buffet inside because it looked great. You can also get a chapstick on your way out, which was a nice touch I haven’t seen anywhere else. HIGHLY recommend.🥰“

“I came in to grab some lunch after work and loved it. the authentic music, the amazing food, the friendly staff! will definitely be coming back!“

“My Home style chicken was terrible. It didn’t taste like the home style I have gotten before and it’s one of my favorites. I didn’t eat hardly any of it. I was disappointed and wished I have just ordered a vegetable plate. The green beans are terrible also I think they’re cooking them a different way. I was so disappointed and I’m a fan of Cracker Barrel but may choose to go to a different restaurant next time we go out to eat.“

“Service,excellent and great food. You won't be disappointed. Clean and easy with a e wh“

“Very thankful for Applebee's being so accommodating, we had a large group. However we did call a head so we could be seated at a specific table. Food was good and the waiters where amazing. we had one person in our group that was kinda forgot about and when they did remember to get his order had to resend the steak back because it wasn't cooked correctly. However the manager took care of us and was very sweet about everything. Honestly with such a big group we expected it to be hard to manage but they did amazing. Thanks Applebee's!! 😊“

“We had a delightful experience at the Asian buffet. The extensive selection of food included a raw bar where one could choose ingredients for the chef to prepare on the grill. Everything was delicious, and my teenagers especially enjoyed the sushi, crab Rangoon, meat pizza, and the banana pudding and ice cream for dessert. The staff were friendly and attentive, promptly taking our drink order and checking on us frequently. The prices were reasonable, and the women's restroom was clean and well-supplied.“
