Nineteen19 Grill and Bar

Our party of 3 stopped in here on July 4th, passing thru to Virginia. The food was REALLY good. It was 2:00pm and the food still came out tasting fresh.
I got the Honey BBQ Burger, my husband got the Philly Cheesesteak & my niece got and Unagi roll & Tuna roll. We all enjoyed our meals!!
I’m SO glad we found it and I’m so glad they were open. What a fun, unexpected find on a holiday road trip!!

Gabe’s a great BT and the lunch was amazing chicken and waffles, wife had a.spider roll and we sipped great bourbon. Just stop in it’s a must stop and close to Tazewell. You’re missing out if your pass it up.

For anyone commuting through the gap, listen. When you travel down into what feels like 80 years into the past taking a look at the infrastructure of this little area, you feel a sense of community and safety it’s so adorable. Then you find the nineteen19, and when you step into the bar you’re welcomed with beautiful Secretariat memorabilia, a gorgeous bar, and some of the best food I’ve had in awhile! The bartender was an absolute pleasure, the steak teriyaki stirfry was phenomenal and the honey BBQ burger was perfectly composed. It’s crazy impressive how great the food was, you need to stop at this place when you come through!

Atmospheric place with a broad menu - the breadth of food on offer almost turned me off. However, the cheesesteak I had was really excellent with totally fresh ingredients, the staff were professional and kind, and the Hawaiian bread pudding I had for dessert was fantastic.

Excellent!

Excellent I recommend the steak tacos and the dirty potatoes.

We had an amazing experience for lunch yesterday! The food was wonderful and the service was fantastic!! Probably the best food we’ve ever had. I had the chicken stir fry, my husband had the Wagyu burger, and my son had the salmon bowl (sub fries).. We were greeted by the manager/owner personally and he treated us so well and made us feel comfortable having young children with our group - even offered to buy our son dessert! ❤️ Even though our group was a little late and stayed a while we didn’t feel rushed or that the workers were upset with us. (I apologize for that though!) Our server, Stephen, was so friendly, upbeat & kept our drinks refilled and was just amazing! Thank you all for the wonderful experience! ☺️

Excellent food, beverage and atmosphere!

We came in on a whim for my daughter’s softball game, from Ohio. Absolutely delicious food and service! And met the owner who was amazing! Hope to come back for dinner!!! HIGHLY recommend!

Awesome Staff and Food!!! Highly Recommend!!!

5/5. I ate here in September 2024, I remember the phenomenal service! The food came very quickly, it was prepared to perfection. Absolute diamond in the rough. Would recommend for anyone, the menu has enough variation for all pallets.

We had a great experience at the Nineteen19 Grill - food, service and setting. We stopped in for lunch on a picture-perfect autumn day. We were seated and served promptly, sharing a big burrito and salad. This place is a gem in the lovely town of Cumberland Gap. Definitely worth the trip!

Amazing food and drinks, I didn't think I'd find something like that here on the border or Tennessee and Kentucky. The service was absolutely fantastic as well. Definitely recommend.
