Located next to the Bijou theater in downtown Knoxville, the Bistro At the Bijou offers a warm ambience and excellent food and service. The restaurant serves American cuisine, with dishes like salmon, peppercorn pork chops, and salads that are highly recommended. The atmosphere has a cozy, speakeasy vibe with Tennessee music flair, especially on weekends when live jazz music featuring local legends and UT students creates a lively setting. On busy nights, there may be a wait, but the experience is worth it. Guests can enjoy specials and delicious desserts like coconut cream pie and peanut butter chocolate pie, which are highly praised. The restaurant also features a small vegan section with flavorful, freshly made options such as tofu scampi, beet and tofu bowl, and Brussels sprouts. For convenience, there is a parking lot nearby. Whether for a nice dinner, drinks before a show, or to listen to jazz, this spot is a must-visit in Knoxville.
