“Love the vibe, service and food! Always a great place to take friends!“

“We visited the area for the first time since this gem opened. We had such an enjoyable experience and meal at the chef’s counter Friday night that we sat there again for Sunday brunch. We really enjoyed the staff and how committed and excited they are to put really great food out of the kitchen. We will definitely come back when we visit the area!“

“A brunch all day restaurant is the perfect addition to the southside. I walk here, but there is a nice free parking lot adjacent. The bagels are the real deal, the tots are delicious, great options for everyone. I have loved everything I’ve tried. So far, my favorites: the French toast, the avocado toast with egg, and I love their thin crust pizza. Drinks, coffee drinks, great service - all the things that make me happy!“

“Fantastic food, really delicious! Homemade pimento cheese and soups, everything on the menu is great, I've never had a bad meal there.They have a small staff and do get busy so be patient with them.“

“Delicious food, excellent service. Will definitely go back.“

“Food and service were amazing, as always. We were shocked to have to now pay for parking!! A $300 dinner and we have to pay for parking! We were told by the staff they have to pay for parking as well! And don’t the owners also own the parking lot? Possibly this isn’t the best policy!“

“Very dog friendly! Love the patio! Great drinks and fantastic food!“

“What a lovely experience with friendly staff and amazing food! We’ll definitely be back!“

“We had an out of the blue date night last night. My mom came over and we asked to go to dinner with no idea where to go. We decided to give Lakshore Grille a try and WOWWWWW. We were so happy with our decision to come there. We will be back over and over again. The food was some of the best we have had and the entire service staff was so friendly. The cocktails were also yum. You definitely get your monies worth. It seems like a great place to work and a wonderful atmosphere. We can't wait to go back. Great job!“

“The food was fairly good, and the service was great. Tip: have an idea of what food you are in the mood before you open the menu. Ample options and a wide variety of food -> a little something for everyone! Our server was very knowledgeable and offered great recommendations. Pictured is the buffalo chicken wrap and butterfinger pie.“

“Service was fantastic! Great food and a very nice atmosphere.“

“We had dinner at Nic and Norman's on Friday night. December 9th. Food and drinks were great. Service was good. Some wonderful person paid our tab. We thank you so much.“

“Today my mom and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Southern Star. We both had your food bar, and it was filled with healthy as well as good, old fashioned comfort food. My husband loves chicken and dressing, your special today, as well as cornbread, so I bought him a portion to go. When I got home, I warmed it up for him, and of course, he loved it too! I was glad that I grabbed some of your baked goods, and so far, we have devoured the HUGE ginger snap cookie!!! It takes me back…thank you all for being so kind and attentive, especially Donna and another sweet lady but I failed to get her name. Thank you all for this great experience!“

“Wonderful service, atmosphere, and food!!! highly recommend!!!“

“Not only was the food delicious, the service was excellent. We had a party of ten and the waitress was definitely on top of keeping us satisfied. If you have a chance, ask for Marla. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Loved my burger, chips are great ..so fresh and crisp, my mushrooms were hot, crisp and delicious“

“Holy crap. We only came to Chattanooga for my daughter's graduation and stopped here for lunch because it was near the venue, but this place... BEST BURGERS I've ever eaten! The staff were all super friendly and they even made a delayed to-go order so I could take a fresh lunch back to my kiddo when she got out of her practice. The aesthetic of the place was wonderful and people from all walks of life gathered there as if they, too, knew about the magic in the food. 12/10 will absolutely come back on my next visit to Chattanooga.“

“The atmosphere is wonderful, but the food is definitely the highlight!! Everything we had was exceptional!! We'll definitely be back!! I'm looking forward to trying everything on the menu!!“

“Love this place! They are fast and friendly and it doesn't matter what I order that day-I am never disappointed!“

“10/10 recommended. I didn't get our servers name but she was the kindest gal. The food and drinks were on point and because we were there for a late birthday celebration she brought me out the best chocolate custard.“

“The place is awesome. It's brightened the downtown scene for the past 40+ years...that's difficult to achieve in the Chattanooga market where the majority of new businesses are unsuccessful which causes them to shut their doors within their first 2 years of operation. CBC has powered through all the diversity to create a unique atmosphere which invites everyone to enjoy quality dinning while playing some pool or throwing darts. It also houses an array of fine cigars to smoke following your meal. It has 2 full service bars which allows you to choose which environment you prefer, downstairs has sports bar feel while upstairs has 12 pool tables with an on-demand jukebox to blast your favorite music. You need to check it out sometime“

“I’ve only been into this establishment twice and although I was irritated because I was unable to place a call in order so that I could walk in and grab my order, pay and then walk out, I understood that the server was by herself both times.

She completely made up for it all because she was a very kind and professional lady and I was not only impressed with her work ethic but also equally impressed at the fact that although she was overwhelmed she pushed through it all and was a server and a cook that made things happen for the customers.

This woman deserves not only a raise but also some sort of recognition from the company because it isn’t her fault that nobody wants to come to work.

Keep up the good work whatever your name is. I will be back just to see her in action again because she completely knocked it out of the ball park both times that I’ve been into this establishment.“

“Nolagirl’s Gumbo prepared the food for a party I had last night and it was nothing short of amazing! Not only that, the personalized service provided to help me ensure my event went off flawlessly was exceptional. I highly recommend!“

“The staff are great and so friendly. We so enjoyed our meal, food was great.“

“Delicious food , great coffee ☕️“

“Very friendly atmosphere, I ordered the CT skillet Hash and was blown away with the food and friendly customer service. Highly recommend and will come again.“

“Dinner was wonderful and they made it very special. Our server was amazing. We got to try new food that was spectacular. The server recommended so many good items from the menu. We will certainly be back for more!“

“Clean, calm, welcoming atmosphere. Absolutely delectable dishes with perfect flavor combinations and Top Notch ingredients. Highly professional staff, friendly and helpful service. Elevated and comfortable dining experience of five star dishes. Highly recommend.“

“Wonderful atmosphere, servers and food: can’t go wrong 😊✅“

“We went there for our Anniversary dinner tonight. The food was exceptional. Our server Jonathan was very friendly, knowledgable about the menu. He was also great at making sure our dinner needs were met. All the staff checked on all guests also. I would highly recommend this restuarant.“

“The food is consistently good. However, that store needs a serious cleaning. Our table had a very large wet/ dirty floor, probably an area over 3 foot in diameter. This was at our feet! The credit card scanner was grungy and is desperate need of wiping it down away well. The waiter did a good job.“

“Ordered tamales and didn't realize they would be twice the size of "normal". So I ended up with leftovers for lunch the next day. I got the pork mole ones. Packed with pork. Masa soft and yet firm at the same time. Not dry at all. Perfect. Literally only thing I'd change would be to ask for extra red sauce. I like the filling a bit more wet than these were. But not an actual complaint, just my personal preference. I will definitely be coming back for more & to try other menu items.“

“Atmosphere would be less if it could be....we frequent this location lately as my MIL has had multiple surgeries nearby.....and there's nothing else to say except that it is HOT ? INSIDE THE RESTAURANT....ITS MISERABLE AND that is really unfortunate because of the fact that the service and even the food has been above par especially for huddle house....but it makes trying to enjoy a meal impossible when you are sweating as soon as you sit down .....even the employees have commented that it's ridiculously hot ......“

“You are missing out on the best barbecue in the Chattanooga area. The ribs will be your last stop on your journey to find the tastiest, fall off the bone, most delicious meat you have ever put in your mouth. Go! Now!!!“

“Really one of the best in Chattanooga. Not only is the food phenomenal, the staff is really what sets it apart from the rest. Everyone we encountered could not be nicer and more attentive. It is now in my regular rotation.“

“I love these burgers so well and make it here so infrequently that I bought 3 cheese burgers with every thing and they reheated very well over the next 2 days. Impressive! And I had forgotten how good their fries. Next time I will order 3 of those too.“

“We came tonight to see our friend play and we walked out back to smoke and the bartender Colby covered our drinks as we walked outside and in my 37 years (Sunday is my birthday ) I have never had this happen before! Thank god for Colby!! He was wonderful!!!“

“Home cooking at a great price. Love their breakfast special…… its no less than a legendary restaurant loved by Chattanoogas locals.“

“I had the veggie sandwich and the maple bacon brussel sprouts back in 2021 and I remembered how good it was to come back here in 2024 and order the exact same thing. Still amazing! And Brian is a great server.“

“Daelynn was our server and she was AMAZING!! So were the lemon ricotta pancakes! I love the incredible fall menu and the super friendly staff.“

“My son and daughter in law and I ate at Hello Monty last night. The atmosphere was very nice and the host was great. Our waitress was outstanding. She took care of us the whole time we were there. The food was excellent. We had fish, rip eye and salmon. The rib eye and mashed potatoes was excellent vi would highly recommend eating here“
