The Grilled Salmon BLT was amazing! You can taste that it was made with quality ingredients.

You have to pay to park, thats annoying. I got a 15 dollar salad with rotten tomatoes. My salad came out with my entree... I sat there and watched my hubby eat his nachos while I just sat there with no salad. Then my entrée came out.. potatoes dry and tasteless, green beans still frozen!! The Brussel sprouts were good. We will not be wasting 100 bucks here again. Save your money and go to Petros for vegan gluten-free options! This place is overpriced and you get rotten food for extravagant prices! Yum!

This place is a little gem in Knoxville. My mother said her shrimp and grits was best she ever had. I loved my blackbean burger and broccolini. Great choices for vegetarians! I love that you can get delicious vegetable sides here with your main. One star lost for atmosphere because the lighting is a bit dark. Great service from the ladies.

Very popular place!! The food is SO good. My 3 friends and I came here on a Friday night probably around 7pm and ended up having to wait an hour 10 minutes. The wait time makes sense with how many people were in there and the sorority event taking up the upstairs seating. We were able to get seats at the bar to have a drink/s while we waited which was perfectly great (their blackberry or blueberry mule I can't remember which is literally the best drink I've ever had). With this being said, I would HIGHLY recommend making a reservation, especially if you are coming on a weekend. Other than the wait time, this meal was great, such a fun spot to spend time with friends!

Great food in a nice atmosphere. Server was personable and attentive. Although we did not partake, it looked like there was an extensive bar. Looks like a fun place for the more non typical Tennessee food offerings

Our party came here for lunch and drinks before a University of Tennessee football game. We thought the food was good. It's not the biggest menu, but I certainly enjoyed my burger.

They have some interesting drinks available as well, including a boozy cold brew drink for those who want to party but didn't sleep well. There's an upstairs bar with an outdoor balcony and additional bathrooms.

Food- The rattlesnake past was delicious. Very filling but not too heavy. My favorite was the shrimp and grits. It was my first time trying shrimp and grits and it did not disappoint! They practically drown the grits in some heavy, flavorful sauce and there were so many toppings. The portion sizes were huge too.

Service- We apparently went when there was a football game which we didn't know about at the time, so the restaurant was packed and the service was terrible. It took us about 20 minutes to be seated and another 20 minutes to get our food after we ordered. It took way too long so we were frustrated but the food made up for it.

I used to love coming here. Sat with the bartender Tuesday night who had a terrible attitude so we asked to sit at a table.
He was on his phone and when we tried to order he snapped at us yelling at us to give him a second. When we moved to a table we were told we were denied service from the bar and couldn’t order drinks. We asked to speak to the manager and very respectfully explained the situation. She took my ID to the office to check it with the “black light.” When she returned she told me my ID was invalid because it wasn’t the new Tennessee state ID. It was a valid 21+ red
box ID. It wasn’t expired or anything. If that’s their store policy, okay.. But if it’s policy why did she even take my ID to check it if they didn’t accept any vertical IDS ever?? I felt like she was just looking for a reason to deny me. I felt like we weren’t being served out of retaliation for moving to a table. My ID wasn’t an issue until i moved to a table THEN the bartender denied service. He then proceeded to loudly trash talk us to the servers l for everyone to hear. While we were still in the building. Such a disappointing visit.
