Great food. Great service. Props to Kevin he was an excellent server
I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to 1885 Grill - Ooltewah and the kind of people behind it.
A few months ago, I bought a gift certificate they donated to a fundraiser. I paid full price for it because it was supporting a good cause, and honestly, I knew I’d end up eating at 1885 anyway. I had it sitting in a file folder on my table… and then my dogs decided it looked like a snack.🐶🤦🏼♀️

I have tried 1885 twice and had a terrible experience both times. Management is unprofessional. It's disappointing because I was hoping to try most of the items on the menu. Thankfully there are plenty of delicious restaurants with exceptional service.
