The waitress came over and asked what we would l like to drink. I asked for a drink menu and she went ahead and brought us a water. Once she came back with the waters she stated she would be right back to take our drink order. We looked over the food and drink menu and then sat there watching them cater to the bar for at least 15 mins. At that point we realized that no one was coming to take our order for a while, so we politely left.....

We were in town visiting the area with friends. They took us to Borderline Billiards (see their…read moreown review), and wanted to get some lunch. State line bar and grill is just a few doors down. This grill, it appears, to be in a converted warehouse space. It is likely the whole block was a warehouse which was sectioned into separate commercial properties. It has 20' ceilings with tin ceiling tiles and nice industrial wood flooring. They have live music and karaoke nights. They have a nice selection of food. Seafood, burgers, quesadillas, wings, salads, wraps ... I tried their mushroom Swiss burger which was huge, juicy and delicious. I needed to cut it in half to figure a way to attack it and a lot of napkins. A fun fact: it is the State line grill because it is in Bristol TN but you cross the street and you are in Bristol VA! If you are in the area, I highly recommend stopping in to try it out.

Located on the corner of a large row of building, it is easy to find. Parking is on the street so…read moreyou should hope for the best or plan to walk. Sidewalks are partly covered so weather is not an issue, but crowds would make the trip more difficult. There are also several street buskers which can draw crowds, so just be aware and not in a hurry. You enter on the corner into the main seating area which is sort of separated by a hostess stand and the back of a booth. We were greeted right away and told to sit wherever we wanted. Seating is a mix of booths and tables and we selected a booth next to the window. Our server came right away and took our drink orders. There is also a board next to the hostess stand with listed specials. Looking over the menu, these were just regular menu items at regular prices. Our server returned and took our food order. The food took about 20 minutes to arrive, which was a little longer than expected. The bbq pork sandwich was dry and did not have a lot of flavor. The bun was fine but the dry meat made it harder to chew and took a lot of water to finish. In addition, the homemade chips were very crispy and salty. This plate left me parched even after drinking three glasses of water. The burger, however, was good. The meat was fairly juicy and toppings were fresh. The same homemade chips accompanied the burger and were also crispy and salty. The bathroom was in poor condition and appeared not to have been cleaned in some time. This was brought to our server's attention, who did not seem too concerned. Maybe this is a good place if you are seeking out music and alcohol, but there are many other options if all you want is lunch.

Hey friends! This was my first time in TN and I wanted some good southern cooking. This spot was…read moreclose to my hotel and had great ratings on Yelp. This spot's menu surprised me! They offer a wide range of cuisines. I opted for the ribs and shrimp. Everything was delicious. Only distaste is that I could taste the generic BBQ sauce on the ribs.

I wouldn't say this was authentic southern food but it was good enough. +Customer service was amazing! +Plenty of free parking +Walking distance to a nice shopping center with great selections +Price points are affordable I hope you enjoy!

She was knowledgeable of the menu, intuitive to our needs before we even knew we needed it, and so very friendly. As for the food ... our party had many different items from the menu; from their steaks to seafood to soups. EVERYTHING we ordered was absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. As many have stated in their review, the restaurant is slightly pricier than the norm around this area, but is SO WORTH IT. I would whole-heartedly recommend this restaurant for the delicious food, over the top staff (especially Taylor), and atmosphere. Thank you, Council Oak and Taylor, for a wonderful evening.

I had come in a bit early and the kitchen hadn't started up yet. They happily let me know it would be a few extra minutes. At no time was I made to feel like I was being a bother. The burger was a decent size cooked to perfection. Put together well with the fixins I requested. Toasted bun is always a nice touch. The fires were great, just the right amount of season, and cripsy outside with fluffy inside just like they should be. I would like to reiterate how personable and comforting the staff were. This is def a great place to go.

Plus a "Southern Board of fresh baked breads and chef's dips" that was ritz crackers, pimento cheese and little room service jars of jelly.

We canceled our reservation at The Tavern to have a meal in our hotel and it was awful food and terrible service - after almost 3 hours we had 3 glasses of wine, terrible cold yucky food and mostly negligent service for which we paid 200 dollars and left hungry and feeling sad that we chose this as the place to have our family birthday. We are not picky people, this was just extraordinarily disappointing.
