FOOD WAS HOT!!The wings were sauced perfectly, the flavor of the smash burger was pure deliciousness and even the fries were hot and crispy. My Daughter has various allergies and they had no problem checking the type of oil or the ingredients in her staple, chicken and fries! WELL DONE! THANK YOU!“

“Great service and AMAZING wings! Easily the best in the area.“

Excellent!!“

“Food is good, good crowd never rowdy. Playlist for karaoke is extensive.“

“Just popped in for takeout. My friend and I both ordered off their lunch special menu, our check was only $22. The food and service was good. The bathroom was out of soap. Also we tried to order through the app but we were unable to get the dishes we wanted, that were on the special lunch discount list. So we had to wait for our food, instead of taking 5 minutes it took 20-25 minutes.“

“Doesn't look like much from the outside but the food is fresh and delicious. The staff have all been friendly and helpful. Great place to play pool during the day.

Vegetarian options: We loved the veggie wrap and fries.“

“Excellent food and service“

“Ben served us and he is literally the best. Shoutout!!!! He listened, checked in on us, was just so kind. We mentioned playing pool right when we walked in and at the end of our meal, he noticed we were finishing up and went ahead and brought us sticks and pool balls. Like….the best service I’ve gotten since I moved here to Knoxville. Not to mention the wings were so great! Definitely coming back again!!!“

“Service was great, food was delicious and prices are good! Highly recommend!“

“It's football time at the steelhouse free wings on Sunday a good atmosphere most of the time owner is a great guy staff does a good job on keeping your beer full and fair price. They have great western chicken / pork rolls and that's an honest review“

“I really enjoyed the set up and it wasn't very pricey like I expected it to be. There were plenty of tables to sit around and a few board games to play while you drink. Neat set up. You pay with a card and they give you a wrist band to walk around and scan at different taps to choose whatever drink you want and they charge per ounce.“

“Yes great food and cold beer. I recommend eating here. The staff was on it.“

“Love the food, drinks, and the lake view. What’s odd is the amount of employees hanging at the bar when I go in. Half the bar is filled with employees eating and just hanging out. Most bars/restaurants don’t allow employees at the bar on or off schedule. I assume they were employees because they all had the same shirts on as the servers and bartender. Bar seats around 10-12 people and I counted 5 employee looking kids. Every time I go in this is usually happening.“

“Good food and friendly service.“

“Amazing okra Roosters wrap“

“Went with a friend at lunchtime. Ordered the tuna sandwich and Brussels sprouts. The sandwich was superb! Brussels spouts were mushy and burnt at the same time. I asked for a replacement, and it was quickly brought out. I highly recommend this restaurant!!“

“Best place for live music!!“

“It's one of the only mexican restaurants I will eat at in Knoxville. The staff and family are amazing. It's probably the most authentic I found locally.

Parking: Parking is plentiful and easy to maneuver around the parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: My children love it here. They are always happy to see and sit on the donkey outside. We miss the fountain ⛲️ though ?

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to get in and out plus the staff would be more than willing to assist if needed. Couldn't ask for better people in an establishment.“

“Best karaoke bar in all of Knoxville!! Great DJ, Bartenders, and staff.“

“Always have a good time. Waitress are always friendly and efficient.“

“Neat little bar near West Hills Mall with a good beer and food selection.

They have indoor and outdoor activities pretty much every night of the week and live music on the weekends.

I mostly just go for free roll Texas hold'em on Sunday night so don't know much about the other nights.“

“Great place good food great atmosphere“

“I've lived/worked in sevierville/gatlinburg for the last 10 yrs. I don't drive to Knox bc the drive socks. Today was my best friend's birthday and I wish we would've made this our first stop bc we would've spent time here instead of trudging through a poor gauntlet of sub par bars. The fried pickles were great, the fried SMOKED GOUDA Mac and chz bites were also delicious!!! The cool bartender also entertained my shirt.....hopefully she reads this and knows that their demeanor and the overall atmosphere ensures that my friends and I will be there again. Thanks again!!!!“

“The name says it all. OUR PLACE“

“First time eating at this restaurant, great service, Jose Guzman was our server, very kind, efficient and knowledgeable. The food was really good, great margaritas! Wish they would play Mexican music, would really liven up the place. Mariachi music would be awesome.“

“The crowd was minimal this Thursday.... But Cool Beans was definitely cool as it gets!!! Staff was inviting and kind... quick service and good conversation!! This place is Amazing and packed full of party people on WEEKENDS!!! Rock on CoolBean Captains!! We appreciate the atmosphere!!!!??“

“JesusChristHeals. JesusChristHeals. Jesus Christ Heals?“

“Ordered the chicken and shrimp plate.... after waiting over an hour for food the chicken and mashed potatoes were tiny servings. The food and drinks tasted amazing.... just disappointed that the picture in the menu was no where near what was served. Alex was amazing and we will happily go back to see her“

“The service provided during my visit was satisfactory. Our server, Mya, demonstrated exceptional customer service by promptly addressing our concerns regarding the saltiness of the fries. She promptly replaced them with a fresh batch prepared according to our preferences. I intend to revisit the establishment in the future based on this positive experience.“

“Jake was the absolute best bartender and server I've had in a long time. Super nice very competent. He put up with our loud obnoxious group with a smile and a pep in his step and got every single thing we ordered right and quickly was super pleased with our experience“

“Always a great time and the pretzels are great!“

“Wonderful place. I refuse to write a bad review so I don't write many. But I will 100% make sure that people know where to go.They accommodated the crew last minute. And we are fortunate to find this place. I will be back the next time I'm in Knoxville.“
