My husband and I went in for an early Valentines dinner. Our first time and they did not disappoint! The ambiance was so romantic! Food was delicious, I’ll be thinking about that chocolate bowl until I can go back and have it again. Our server, Cherie, was amazing and really talked us through the menu. The manager, Deontre, stopped by mid meal and checked on us. My husband and I are both in the service industry so we were both so impressed by everything and everyone. The staff made you feel so welcome and really cared about your experience. We will definitely be back again!

The food was delicious! I'm only giving it 4 stars because we went on a Saturday night at 530 Pm and the service was horrible. N one gave to our table for 15 minutes and barely had anyone check in on us. The potatoes bravas, the shrimp and the crab dip were all delicious

Used to be my favorite restaurant in Knoxville. We went tonight and the appetizer guacamole was enough to feed 1 person, not a group of 4. The salmon was so bland & the sweet potatoes were still raw. The flour tortilla tacos were barely warm/cooked for the fish tacos. Pretty expensive for mediocre food. Our waitress however was really great.

Flavorful food and balanced cocktails in beautiful surroundings. I especially loved the pebbled blue velvet cushions. It makes an interior designer’s heart happy for the ambiance to match the care and thoughtfulness that goes into the food. Our service was outstanding as well.

Restaurant is beautiful. Hostess and waitress were kind and understanding. But the wait time was past our reservation and food was not good or cooked properly. They seemed short staffed and tables were left a mess. I felt bad for the staff. Hopefully it was just an off night.

The decor and food are just top-notch. Deontre the general manager runs around taking care of everything for everyone and made sure we had a wonderful night. Highly recommend!
I reserved this place for my birthday dinner with a party of 9. It had great service, top tier food, and a beautiful upscale atmosphere. The only thing I would have done differently is sat us in the main dining room to experience the music and ambiance. They placed our somewhat larger party in the “VIP room”. I sort of felt that we were stuffed away, apart from all other society in there, and I felt that they had room to accommodate our party in the main dining room.

We caught the tail end of happy hour and boy are we glad we did. They only have one special but it was such a fantastic deal that we'll be back again. Two steak or fish tacos and a cocktail for 15.00. We got an order of each and they were both delicious. The steak was tender and juicy and the fish was crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. They didn't skimp on the alcohol in the cocktails, which were amazing . An elegant atmosphere topped it all off perfectly.

They don’t accept same-day reservations, even when the dining room isn’t full. The bar was open and had a pretty relaxed vibe for a Friday night, and the bartenders were attentive and friendly. I had a delicious mocktail.
What disappointed me was the lack of visible diversity among the staff—very few people of color were working there—and even more so to learn that the place is owned by white restaurateurs.
The menu was “fusion” inspired, which to me felt like it watered down the classic, full-flavor experience I was hoping for.
