Overall, wasn’t bad, but wasn’t what it was. Since Knoxvilles restaurant scene has improved, Kefi hasn’t evolved. 40 minutes from when we sat to get our first drink. Staff hanging out at the bar with no urgency, over cooked octopus, salad had too much dressing. Waiter couldn’t speak to the wine on a basic level. Probably will need a reason to go back - much better options in the old city in 2026
Food, service, and atmosphere outstanding.
Great place to take your date for romantic dinner.
Our server was new but very knowledgeable.
We were guests of another couple and don’t normally eat at such pricier places, but agree you get what you pay for here.

First time to visit. The food was very good, the bone in pork lollipops were delicious. The potatoes were delicious. The chicken was cooked perfectly. Our wait staff was not particularly friendly and we felt (although we honestly don't know why) that she was not happy to serve us and a bit standoffish and blunt. The drinks are all pre batched, which is not desirable to me. The wine I choose was solid.
I would go back to try again and see if the service was...
