New American Restaurants in Chattanooga, TN

“10/10 recommended. I didn't get our servers name but she was the kindest gal. The food and drinks were on point and because we were there for a late birthday celebration she brought me out the best chocolate custard.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Food and service were amazing, as always. We were shocked to have to now pay for parking!! A $300 dinner and we have to pay for parking! We were told by the staff they have to pay for parking as well! And don’t the owners also own the parking lot? Possibly this isn’t the best policy!“

“My son and daughter in law and I ate at Hello Monty last night. The atmosphere was very nice and the host was great. Our waitress was outstanding. She took care of us the whole time we were there. The food was excellent. We had fish, rip eye and salmon. The rib eye and mashed potatoes was excellent vi would highly recommend eating here“

“Wonderful service, atmosphere, and food!!! highly recommend!!!“

“Celebrating birthday. Great food. Enjoyed the birthday dessert perk. Plenty of food left over to take home. Some minor issues with service, waitress had some issues packaging our take home correctly. Actually I don't like my food being taken back to the kitchen. In the future just bring me boxes. My water glass went dry. At first, ok, then long periods of time between table visits. Ordered coffee when we got our desserts. Never came. Didn't say anything, as we'd been there well over an hour and a half, time to go. Waitress very nice, maybe having a bad evening, or new, could do better. Was still tipped well. I'd expect perfect service at JA's.“

“Highly recommend this place, outstanding food and service and fair prices.“

“Victoria Rose is an excellent server. She has a great personality and strives to provide a great dining experience.“

“Had a fantastic meal and wonderful service. The only negative would be the hostess. Not the most attentive when we checked in and then she took us to our table. We were given option of a two seater right between the only two occupied tables in the dining room or a two seater against the wall near the restrooms. Given it was early I thought maybe the 4 seaters were all booked but at end of night they were still fairly empty when we left.“

“Love the vibe, service and food! Always a great place to take friends!“

“Very dog friendly! Love the patio! Great drinks and fantastic food!“

“Amazing place to dine and eat. Great alcoholic beverages and the staff is always so friendly.“

“You are missing out on the best barbecue in the Chattanooga area. The ribs will be your last stop on your journey to find the tastiest, fall off the bone, most delicious meat you have ever put in your mouth. Go! Now!!!“

“We came tonight to see our friend play and we walked out back to smoke and the bartender Colby covered our drinks as we walked outside and in my 37 years (Sunday is my birthday ) I have never had this happen before! Thank god for Colby!! He was wonderful!!!“

“Delicious food and atmosphere!“

“We had an out of the blue date night last night. My mom came over and we asked to go to dinner with no idea where to go. We decided to give Lakshore Grille a try and WOWWWWW. We were so happy with our decision to come there. We will be back over and over again. The food was some of the best we have had and the entire service staff was so friendly. The cocktails were also yum. You definitely get your monies worth. It seems like a great place to work and a wonderful atmosphere. We can't wait to go back. Great job!“

“We had planned a trip to the Lodge Museum and store. I honestly didn't know about Big Bad Breakfast when we pulled in. Lucky for us, because we were hungry. We certainly weren't hungry when we left. I had the cathead biscuit. I'm so glad that I did. I thought it was wonderful. The chicken was super crisp and flavorful. The biscuit was easily the top of my list of best biscuits EVER. Now, I will warn you if you like soft bottom biscuits. This one wasn't. It was crisp, with a perfect cust like texture on the bottom. Just the way I like them. I'm just sorry there isn't a Big Bad Breakfast closer to home.“

“Service was fantastic! Great food and a very nice atmosphere.“

“Enjoyed the wonton nachos and bloody marys for brunch. Delicious!!“

“Best service as I’ve become a regular. The chicken fried rider is sooooo crispy and with the lettuce creates a one of one flavor! The hummus with pita is otherworldly. The flavor depth is what keeps me coming back truly. If you crave something sweet try their original baklava as it’ll have you scrambling back for more. I love that they are inclusive and each time I dine whether to go or eat in I feel like I’m apart of their family. If you get onion rings ask for them extra crispy it’ll blow your socks off so make sure to wear two pairs! I’d go as far to say this is a Chattanooga must visit! This is Chattanooga’s hidden gem hands down!“

“Fantastic view,food and beer!“

“I'll keep this simple, as I just came in from the rain to have a glass of wine while it passes: do not get the rosé! Don't. It's... well it's a horrific acidic, bitter, cheap-tasting mess of a wine. I'm seriously laughing to myself at how much garbage it is.Otherwise, the place has a cute vibe and the bartender is friendly.“

“We absolutely love STIR! Impressive food and cocktail menu, beautiful ambiance, and excellent service. Don't miss out on this place if you're visiting Chattanooga!“

“Love this place! They are fast and friendly and it doesn't matter what I order that day-I am never disappointed!“

“One of the best local spots in Chattanooga. Ive been coming here since I was 16, first fried pickles I ever had and they are the best 20 years later. Pickle barrel is a staple for the fellow natives.“

“Holy crap. We only came to Chattanooga for my daughter's graduation and stopped here for lunch because it was near the venue, but this place... BEST BURGERS I've ever eaten! The staff were all super friendly and they even made a delayed to-go order so I could take a fresh lunch back to my kiddo when she got out of her practice. The aesthetic of the place was wonderful and people from all walks of life gathered there as if they, too, knew about the magic in the food. 12/10 will absolutely come back on my next visit to Chattanooga.“

“We went to The Big Chill a little early on a Saturday evening, so it wasn't crowded. We sat at the bar, and all of the staff working the bar area were very friendly. I had a frozen concoction that was perfect for a hot summer day, and my husband had a beer. We shared the southwest chicken nachos, and it was plenty for 2 people. And very yummy! Neither of us had been there in years, but we agreed we will be back again soon!“

“I’ve only been into this establishment twice and although I was irritated because I was unable to place a call in order so that I could walk in and grab my order, pay and then walk out, I understood that the server was by herself both times.

She completely made up for it all because she was a very kind and professional lady and I was not only impressed with her work ethic but also equally impressed at the fact that although she was overwhelmed she pushed through it all and was a server and a cook that made things happen for the customers.

This woman deserves not only a raise but also some sort of recognition from the company because it isn’t her fault that nobody wants to come to work.

Keep up the good work whatever your name is. I will be back just to see her in action again because she completely knocked it out of the ball park both times that I’ve been into this establishment.“

“The food is so fresh and delicious. Great healthy option. Wish they didn’t have such limited dine in hours but love this place“

“The restraunt had a cozy vibe like a lounge. The combinations of ingredients in the tacos set this place apart from others. The 3 tacos I had were excellent. Whatever sauce was on the brussel Sprouts, upped the dish to another level. I will definitely visit again when I travel to chattanooga.“

“Clean, calm, welcoming atmosphere. Absolutely delectable dishes with perfect flavor combinations and Top Notch ingredients. Highly professional staff, friendly and helpful service. Elevated and comfortable dining experience of five star dishes. Highly recommend.“

“My fav breakfast place in Chatt. Absolutely luv it. Get the Southern Benedict with a “You Got Jammed” cocktail!!!“

“Wings are seriously good. Owner was extremely friendly and polite. We will be coming back soon.“

“We love Ankar’s Hoagies. The BEST onion rings! The sandwiches and steak in a sack are great too. Take the time and dine in. That’s part of the experience! I’ve been eating here for years. My parents loved it too. There’s not many places like this left around town.“

“Always love going. Though the K.J. was new and wasn't very good at keeping with the rotation it was still fun.“
