“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.“

“I was visiting Chattanooga for the weekend.. When traveling, I like to try non-chain restaurants. My daughter found Seafood King Gene on line and off we went. When we arrived it was a food truck. I was horrified as I am skeptical about food safety in food trucks. Because we were starving, I decided to try it. OMG this was the best food I've ever eaten. My daughter wanted seafood but they were sold out. We had rib tips, whole corn-on-the-cob, cheese potatoes, and broccoli. Every bite of each food was soooo scrumptious, seasoned perfectly. Portions were huge; I could eat off of it for three meals--worth the $30 per plate. Even though we had to eat in the car in the parking lot, the food was so good I had to go back to give King Gene a generous tip. Fortunately, my concern about food safety was not an issue. Staff (including King Gene himself) was very pleasant and professional. I highly recommend Seafood King Gene Express. The next time I'm in Chattanooga, I will go back. Thanks King Gene, and keep up the great cooking.“

“We love this restuarant and it’s our go-to place for every milestone moments but this review is about a bad experience we had today with our lunch order. We ordered a take out for my husband’s birthday and when we came back home we found one entree is missing. On calling back the restaurant , we explained in details what’s missing and requested them to keep the item ready as we wanted to eat together as a family before everything becomes cold. However when my husband reached the restaurant he was told that they didn’t believe us and then the server went to talk to the chef. After that she was convinced that the issue was on their side and took another 20 mins to give the food. This is outrageous and honestly feels borderline racist. She could’ve checked with the chef before we went back. We love this restaurant but this has left a very bad impression on us“

“We were passing through Chattanooga And we googled restaurants near me with good ratings. We were staying at Riverview Mountain Inn, and decided to go there. I’ll start off with Vicky and Steve were amazing. They gave us a couple of samples to try before we even actually ordered. I got the homemade chicken salad and brussels sprouts with balsamic..amazing! We also got mahi fish tacos with french fries well done and coleslaw and both entrées were absolutely amazing. Atmosphere was very quaint, very personable. We are from small towns in Missouri and we feel the owners gave us that Hometown feeling….. We would highly recommend this place if you’re passing through from anywhere, but especially if you’re staying at Riverview Mountain Inn. I know we have said amazing several times, but it absolutely was! Tish n Smit“

“Stopped for lunch. Our waiter was Curtis. He was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. He’s an asset to your location. Food was good but not excellent. Both of us got tacos - grilled fish, and steak. The steak tacos were full of flavor but way over-garnished to the point that that sauce was overpowering. They were drenched - ended up eating them with a fork and removing lots of the sauce, etc. Fries and tots were good.“

“Pretty good. Not overly crowded, but there was only one waitress. She was good but a bit overworked so difficult to get things just right or timely. The dressing for the Caesar salad is very anchovy heavy. My husband liked it, but I could not eat it. The crabcakes were delicious. We ordered a side, but it never came. We had a lemon coconut dessert and it was flavorless; neither one of us ate it after the first bite. I guess the crabcakes saved our whole experience because they were quite good.“
