“We had a fantastic evening - first we were proactively moved from a table next to a large group and therefore noisy to a quieter space in the restaurant- where does that ever happen - secondly our dinners were exquisite- creativity and quality above the price - one of the best meals we’ve enjoyed in a while - had the tuna crisp - burrata salad -osso buco - chicken and trout - financier and olive oil cake - we would happily order any of those again - thank you for a wonderful evening - we will be back !“

“I come just for the short ribs and collard greens. It is some of the best that I have ever had. Inside is really nice but I also love sitting on the patio when the weather is nice.

“10 out of 10 experience! The chocolate covered strawberries were huge and so very sweet. My family finally had the opportunity to try the viral Dubai chocolate cup, and we wish we lived closer to go back for more. The best part of the entire visit was the owner and her staff! They made my girls feel at home and gave them lots of assistance with picking out the best treats (so many to choose from). What a hidden gem 💚“

“We had our son's 13th birthday party. The kids had a great time and the staff was amazing. We had to plan it last minute due to the weather and the manager made it happen. The menu is from Bit Burger so you won't be disappointed. I do recommend to bring kids only during the day.“

“Been here several times and every visit has been exceptional! Will continue to eat here and the staff and owners are very helpful, nice, kind people. A must do for all.“

“We went here for our annual office Christmas dinner. The food was incredible- but the service was TOP NOTCH. All the servers were great but our main server Grace was knowledgeable as most of us had never been there before, our guys can get obnoxious and she handled them great and she was on top of everything. We didn’t feel rushed or like we were waiting for anything even though we spent over four hours enjoying our experience. 5 out of 5 stars would def recommend and am going to personally bring family back for celebrations. Great times were had by us all.“

“This place is AWESOME!! From the cleanliness of the place as well as indoor and outdoor seating, courteous staff to the incredible flavors of ice cream, donuts and I especially love the pretzel. The best I've ever had! the ice cream is so creamy and fresh every time I've been there! My whole and extended family love this place and my 16 year old granddaughter says the ice cream is the best she's ever had...and that's saying something! Everyone..please come and see what all the hype is about!!“

“Yassin's catered the most amazing dinner for 100 guests and everyone was satisfied, even the gluten free people! they even took the time to garnish with hearts for our big day. they also delivered it, over an hour away, and arrives right on time. thank you so much! love you and your spirit“

“Great Food, great workers, friendly and fast too“

“I love this place! Healthy choices and a unique menu with plenty of options to customize your meal. I typically order the kids meal which is an afforable option for a light lunch and comes with a drink. The cucumber mint is my favorite drink and I always get the pita chips with crazy feta and skhug sauce. We tried the cinnamon pita chips today with honey. Perfect ending to a great meal. Thankful to my daughter in law for introducing me to CAVA.“

“Shout out to the bartender, Tara. You were absolutely phenomenal during our visit! Keep making those amazing White Russians!!“

“Oh downtown Knox where do I begin… ever since my days at UT back in ‘96 I loved going downtown. Of course back then you would catch me at the hill or one of the other bars the fellas would be at. But now I come for a different reason… ICE CREAM. My wife’s boyfriend reccomended this place to me a while back, and ever since then we’ve been going at it nonstop (and I’m not talking about just the ice cream😉. He’s actually a really cool dude and, he hits the spot just right. At first I didn’t tell my wife that I was going out with her boyfriend, but when she found out she wasn’t actually that mad. She even lets me watch from the closet sometimes when Im good. Other than that, the ice cream is delicious and they always have fun flavors. I love the Santa’s cookie!!!! Local guide level 5 signing off!“

“Cava has a great variety of items to select from. The restaurant is clean and the staff is very friendly. You can build your own bowl with fresh ingredients. However if you know what authentic falafel tastes like skip their falafel.“

“Absolutely delicious! We didn’t have one thing we didn’t thoroughly enjoy. I will be dreaming about those Brussel sprouts for days! Very very delicious food, the atmosphere is very inviting and cozy. Big plus that it was an LGBT friendly environment! ❤️“

“Love this place! I get tacos hybrid street & American, with a mix of the salsa’s thrown on top. It’s amazing.“

“This is my first order with them, & they did not disappoint! It is SO delicious! The placement of the fruits in the bowl are even great! They sure did a great job. I didn’t know where they were located & they’re actually close to my home! Heck yeah!“

“super good food and even better customer service“

“We needed a burger and a quick old fashioned! This place was packed and they still turned out our food and drinks fast! The well whiskey was good too. I should have gotten the whiskey flight! Buffalo trace , welled reserve, Blanton’s, and to finish it off with some Taylor! Man, that sounded like a great choice! This is place is on my Must revisit!“

“This is by far my favorite ice cream stop in the whole world. No kidding they are the best. This location is really unique and friendly. Located in a large Victorian style house, Cruze Farm East Knox has plenty of parking, lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and a drive thru! The staff are attentive, friendly and enthused for ice cream. Make sure to sample before you decide and they have pints of their amazing flavors to take home.“

“Delicious food, helpful staff. Had a great experience!“

“The banana pudding cookie was probably better than any actual banana pudding I ever had. I was going to only eat half, but couldn't stop! The dog loved the crumbs!“

“Delivery is usually rocking, but not today. I’ll usually give a little slack when the order’s not right but I think you would want to know how your food is being represented. I ordered my favorite, the Farmhouse Hash. Maybe I’m being picky but I’m only comparing it to the same meals I’ve had before, which were excellent. First, either Avocado’s have shrunk to the size of a Kumquat or the cook could care less about what this meal would taste like. I got 4 pieces of avocado about an inch big. And they still had the peel on them. Second, I ordered Sour Dough as opposed to wheat because of nutrition guidelines I have to keep. I got wheat anyway, which was very tempting. My eggs were fried, not basted. I got cheddar cheese instead of goat cheese. We also received smucker’s packets instead of the home made jam, that we expected. So it just boils down to the quality for the price. I basically paid $30 for my meal. I don’t mind paying restaurant prices but I also expect better than fast-food. One more thing I would like your business to think about. I am a disabled, immune-compromised customer. I order delivery more than the average customer for health reasons. I don’t appreciate the lack of consideration from your kitchen staff. Just because I’m not there to ask the server to correct my order, does not mean it’s ok to slack off on your duties. It more than likely was oversight but still, I felt you needed to know what was going on. I do hesitate now, to order from First Watch. I’m just not sure I’ll get what I expect.“

“Very accommodating to make new juice. Sample too. Friendly.“

“Everything we ate was absolutely delicious! Yassin’s is a special treat restaurant for my son and me.“

“Best Thai food in Dubai, always a pleasure to dine here ☺️“

“Fantastic establishment. All employees are phenomenal“

“Excellent dining experience! We had a group of 6 for happy hour drinks and food. The hamburger was seasoned and cooked perfectly! Zucchini fries were crispy and delicious with the dipping sauce. The crab stuffed mushrooms were big and full of crab meat. Spicy shrimp was glazed and served with a spicy cucumber salad. All super delicious. Our servers were attentive and friendly. The desserts were really good. We will definitely be back!“

“Great atmosphere and menu! First time visiting - excellent salad and building our own pizzas. Will return!“

“Great atmosphere and delicious food!!“
