Highly recommended, tart with a little sweetness and kick. For apps I went with the crawfish and shrimp cake and smoked chicken wings. The crawfish and shrimp cakes are a great idea. The fry was great on the cake. The flavor was a little lost. I thought initially it was the tartar that overpowered the cake and that is partially true. I did try a bite without the tartar and it was still a tad on the bland side. The wings had a great fry and smoke flavor as well. They were a bit overcooked and dry. The Alabama sauce was real good and added needed moisture to the wings. The breading appeared to be fairly heavy, ie the bread to meat ratio was on the bread side. The service was good and very fast, there were just some execution challenges for the food. The menu is real interesting and I'm willing to try some of the other offerings on another visit.

I've eaten here before and wasn't thrilled. Tonight, however, was a complete 180…read more We spent the afternoon at the VBC. We weee hungry and it was pouring buckets. Co/Op was close. I decided to give it another shot. Saturday night, 6pm and the restaurant was nearly empty. I asked for a gluten free menu. They didn't have one. But what they had was even better. Emma, our server, went through every menu item and told me what was safe, what could be modified and what to stay away from. Her knowledge of the menu was stellar and something that's lacking in most restaurants. One of my hang ups during my last visit was being served an old fashioned when I ordered a Sazerac. I asked Emma, who apologized as she told me they were out of absinthe. She not only knew the food menu but also the drink menu. Emma, you are a light in a dining arena full of mediocre. I ordered the scallops and risotto. The plate arrived with 4 large scallops. It's not uncommon for large scallops to be gummy with a soapy, not sweet flavor. My scallops were the exact opposite. They were perfect. The creamy, slightly sweet/slightly salty risotto was the perfect accompaniment. The accompanying broccolini was a miss - it was extremely bitter. Unpleasantly so. My husband had the pot roast ragout. He said it was alright - everything was hot but the potatoes. They were cold - he said it threw him off and just wasn't very enjoyable. He did enjoy the cheese biscuits and the bit of mine that I was willing to share. One way I judge a restaurant is by whether I'd come back. I posed that question to him. He said it was worth another try. Service was on point - Emma was a rock star in my book. The wine and beer were at a perfect temperature and the wine pour was generous. Co/Op is in the Embassy Suites. Parking was easy and free tonight; but, depending on what's going on in town, you can't count on that. Two entrees, two drinks and tip was upward of $120. Expensive? Yes, but the scallops and service were so good that I didn't even blink. Will I be back? Undoubtably.

They probably need to put that on the plate before sending it up. I would definitely come back. This was very reasonably priced as well.

From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm, welcoming, and exactly what you hope for in a neighborhood spot. Our server Anna was AMAZING--attentive, friendly, and genuinely made the experience even better. On top of that, the owner Kara stopped by and was so kind and welcoming, which really says a lot about the heart behind this place. Let's talk about the food: the meatballs are superb--flavorful, perfectly cooked, and clearly made with care. And honestly, after seeing the rest of the menu, there's so much more I can't wait to try. This is absolutely a place you come back to again and again. And the drinks? The pomegranate martini was perfection--smooth, balanced, and dangerously delicious. Great food, great drinks, wonderful people, and a cozy atmosphere.

Not far from where we were parked we found the Wooden City conveniently across from it all (dare I say a brisk walk's worth) with Mellow Mushroom and Ben & Jerry's establishments at both corners. We were given the options of staying inside or being placed outside and we chose (biased a lil) the opportunity of eating outside. We were taken care of accordingly by Jonathan, who is a perfect example of someone that makes tourism worth it, we chitchatted back-and-forth and came across some great options on our appetizers and drinks. While we waited for drinks, we were served water with ice as the weather outside was pleasant but a little too hot for the afternoon... When the appetizers arrived, we were greeted by not only demonstration, but taste above what I've had as of recent. Wife enjoyed the freshness of the tomatoes and cheese whilst I was mesmerized by how subtle and uber smooth my Old Fashioned was. We unwinded and talked about our day here in this city and then our next meal plates arrived. I had the very unique and well presented Beet Ravioli and the wife had the exquisite Spicy Lamb Rigatoni. Immediate upon arrival to our table my wife and I exchanged a bite of each other's plates to give a chance for our taste pallets to experience one another. The Beet Ravioli took back my wife to a time where she made something of similar taste and the Rigatoni took me back to California when I tasted something familiar then. Towards the end, I saved the location at the name of the restaurant, as I would like a near future to come back and visit with more time. Jonathan was an absolute help for our satisfaction in Chattanooga and we are thankful.
