50 Best American Restaurants near Hixson

“Great hamburgers and salads!“

“This is a very nice place to go and shoot darts or pool with excellent food.

The only reason that I gave it a 4 out of 5 was I had some slight issues with my service dog.

Steph was grossly under trained with the actual Ada law. With one employee denying access because the dog was not wearing a vest. The manager then I stated that the dog cannot come in because I did not have paperwork.

I did however go and print out the Ada law which clearly stated that these both points were incorrect. I also left a copy of the law so that they could have that to reference for future use.

This falls back primarily I would say on ownership and management for not giving proper training concerning the law and service animals.

That being said once they did get the law they did read through it and we're very good about being understanding I've been there since with absolutely no issues whatsoever.

As far as a place to play pool or darts in Chattanooga this is the place to go.“

“So delicious, wonderful service!!! Kristen took great care of us!!“

“We had a pleasant experience at Applebee's in Hixson, thanks to our server Gary, who provided quick service. The food arrived promptly, and although the queso was a bit runnier than we prefer, it still tasted okay. The Tex-Mex shrimp bowl and chicken quesadilla salad were both tasty, and the triple chocolate melt was a delightful dessert. Just a friendly tip for servers: if you smoke, please make sure not to smell like it when serving customers.“

“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 food was exceptional but the experience was top notch bc of our server Ray. She was very friendly, very knowledgeable of the food, went above and beyond for us and her fellow servers to help when things got busy. Best service we’ve had in a long time. Overall, one of my favorite spots we have eaten at in Chattanooga. Highly recommend and ask for Ray!“

“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.

“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!“

“I contacted Fresh Burger Grill to talk about accommodating a large party as a part of my father’s celebration of life. They were gracious enough to take on the task, never having doing anything like this. Tanya was communicative and helped me work everything out in very short notice. Everyone the day of was so accommodating and kind.“

“Today my mom and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Southern Star. We both had your food bar, and it was filled with healthy as well as good, old fashioned comfort food. My husband loves chicken and dressing, your special today, as well as cornbread, so I bought him a portion to go. When I got home, I warmed it up for him, and of course, he loved it too! I was glad that I grabbed some of your baked goods, and so far, we have devoured the HUGE ginger snap cookie!!! It takes me back…thank you all for being so kind and attentive, especially Donna and another sweet lady but I failed to get her name. Thank you all for this great experience!“

“Great dinner tonight! Carson went over and beyond and then some waiting on us! Never had a better waiter than Carson tonight in all my years of dining. Prompt service, filling glasses before asked, asking every detail to make sure everything was perfect! Unreal and exceptional service! Thank you Carson! Hope this goes to and above your manager plus corporate too! You need to be congratulated on your talents! Thanks again!“

“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 dinner at Nic and Norman's on Friday night. December 9th. Food and drinks were great. Service was good. Some wonderful person paid our tab. We thank you so much.“

The staff is always friendly and makes you feel valued as a customer. The menu options are varied and meet key food items across the board from great steaks to seafood with great sides, salads and soups. All in all, Firebirds is a great value for the dollars spent and management strives to ensure you will have a pleasant experience.“

“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.“

“Excellent restaurant, great food and wide variety, friendly staff with quick service. Cheddars is my favorite go to place to eat“

“Love the food and atmosphere. It’s like coming home to grandma‘s house and having a big hug. However, I hate the changes in the newly remodeled restaurants I have been in also, the side/vegetable portions have become so small they often look more like a child’s portion, leaving me having to order more or add on a child’s plate of vegetables. Oh yes, in the bathrooms are universally, dirty, smelly, and disgusting no matter how far or near I travel. I should know I eat 2 to 3 times a week at Cracker Barrel.“

“Nolagirl’s Gumbo prepared the food for a party I had last night and it was nothing short of amazing! Not only that, the personalized service provided to help me ensure my event went off flawlessly was exceptional. I highly recommend!“

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

“with my busy schedule lately I have been stopping in and grabbing healthy salads and meals. It is so much better than fast food. The sesame noodle salad last week was epic! I'm stopping in today to pick up a salad and some fresh tuna salad. please make the chilled shrimp salad again, it's fabulous! 5- Star *****“

“A True Chattanooga Staple

The Chattanooga Billard Club is everything you want in a classic bar and more. This place has serious character — housed in a historic building with a chill, laid-back vibe that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time (in the best way).

The food is classic bar fare done right — satisfying, flavorful, and available late (kitchen’s open until 1:30am!). The whiskey selection is solid, and their Old Fashioneds are on point. Whether you're a local or just visiting, you owe it to yourself to eat and drink here.

What really makes the place shine is the bartender — super attentive and genuinely welcoming. It’s rare to find service this good anymore.

Bonus: drinks flow until 2:45am, and yes — smoking inside is welcome, which adds to the old-school lounge feel.

Absolutely love this spot and will 100% be back. Eat, drink, and smoke here.“

“Great place been many times well worth the money which isn’t much. Highly recommend do your self a favor and stop in. If your in to trains you’ll love this place. Convenient location. Right time of year right up the road you can see row teams. If your in to breakfast try the break man.“

“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.“

“I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Marriott hotel due to a winter storm that prevented me from commuting to work. The hotel's management kindly provided accommodations to ensure my safety. When my car battery died on the last evening, the front desk staff, including Katie, were extremely helpful and notified Jordan, who assisted me in jump-starting my vehicle despite the freezing temperatures. I am deeply grateful for the exceptional customer service displayed by the staff, who truly embody the spirit of hospitality. Although my stay was brief and work-related, I was impressed by the hotel's amenities and my comfortable room. If I find myself in Chattanooga, TN, in the future, I would certainly choose to stay at this Marriott property again. The staff's dedication to providing outstanding service is what sets this hotel apart. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Katie and Jordan for their kindness and assistance.“

“I really enjoyed 212 Market Restaurant the food there was magnificent and the soup was great as well“

“Wonderful atmosphere, servers and food: can’t go wrong 😊✅“

“We love this place! It is a hidden gem! The food is great and deserts awsome. We go by boat once a week by boat. Going tomorrow for breakfast for the first time. Will miss the deserts.“

“I have to say that this morning was the busiest I have seen it when we have been there! The cook did amazing on the food, it was hot when we got ours. The waitress’ kept on top of our drinks and still stayed on top of the other tables! That place has come along way and seems to be thriving! The past few times we have been in there have been great and have had no issues!! Shari and her staff are doing a great job there and I hope it stays that way and continues to thrive!!“
