    Best onion rings in Tennessee. Maybe the world. Great atmosphere. Good beer selection on tap.

    My family came here for my birthday and I was very impressed with how well they accommodated us. We…read moretried to book ahead of time because we know things fill up during the holidays as well as it being a weekend. Unfortunately we got our days mixed up and our reservation was the following day. However the hostess told us it was not an issue and still seated us right away moving our booking to the correct day. The food came out in a timely manner and our server was very helpful as well. I ordered the seafood lasagna and it was very flavorful. Personally if I were to come back, I'd order another dish that was more filling. The server raved about how good it was and she was correct. It did have a lot of flavor to it. However it lacked seafood in the shells. At some points, I felt as though I was only eating shells and sauce with tomatoes unfortunately. Upon finishing our meal, unfortunately my father became ill after sipping water and going down the wrong pipe. We were so embarrassed seeing as though we were sitting in the middle of everyone dining. However the staff were so kind resulting us that it wasn't the first and dropping everything they were doing to tend to us with wet napkins and checking on my father. While we were deeply embarrassed, it really meant a lot to us that you all made us your priority in that moment and I greatly appreciate you alls service!

As for the food, it was honestly pretty underwhelming considering how hyped this place is. The crab dip was okay, nothing memorable. The steak and lobster was disappointing- the lobster had that soft texture that overcooked or not-so-fresh crawfish can have. The baked shrimp wasn't bad, but definitely not something I'd order again. Strawberry shortcake was decent enough. Ironically, the bread basket ended up being my favorite part of the meal-absolutely delicious. The service, however, was genuinely warm and hospitable. It was a bit slow, but the staff was kind, friendly, and personable enough that it made up for it. That was honestly the highlight of the experience. Was I excited to try this place because of all the hype? Absolutely. Would I personally recommend it? Probably not.

    Not every restaurant earns repeat business because of the food alone. The places that truly stand…read moreout are the ones that understand hospitality at a higher level (true attention to detail), professionalism, and how they handle the moments that don't go perfectly. I have frequented this restaurant regularly with friends and clients and have always had great experiences, which honestly made last night stand out even more. Without getting into specifics, an issue came up during dinner. What impressed me was that before we even had the opportunity to mention it, Madison (our rock star waitress) had already noticed it from across the room. She approached the table discreetly, acknowledged what she observed in a professional way, immediately involved management, and the situation was addressed promptly and respectfully. That is the difference between a place that is simply "nice" and a true 5-star experience. Anyone can deliver good food on a good night. Real customer service is measured by awareness, urgency, discretion, and how a team responds when something is off. Madison's attention to detail and the way the staff handled the situation reinforced exactly why I will continue coming back with friends and clients. Mistakes happen everywhere. Professionalism like that doesn't.

    A Memorable Evening at Raven Steakhouse: A Refined Gem in Downtown Maryville…read moreAs a person with a particular appreciation for establishments that elevate special occasions, I recently had the pleasure of dining at Raven Steakhouse (211 W Broadway Ave, Maryville, TN 37801), and I can confidently say it sets a new standard for fine dining in the region. From the moment of arrival, the experience was seamless. Our reservation was honored promptly, and we were escorted through an elegantly appointed dining room that strikes the perfect balance: sophisticated and refined, with beautiful linens, soft lighting, and an atmosphere of quiet luxury that feels welcoming rather than intimidating. The space exudes timeless sophistication without a hint of pretension--a rare and refreshing quality. Our server, Alene--who doubles as a skilled sommelier--approached with genuine warmth and effortless grace. Her deep knowledge of both the menu and wine pairings proved invaluable, guiding us thoughtfully through an impressive selection of dishes. Attentive without ever being intrusive, she anticipated needs with remarkable precision, creating that ideal sense of being cared for rather than merely served. Alene's charm and professionalism elevated the entire evening. We began with two Raven Salads, which immediately demonstrated the kitchen's commitment to quality and restraint. The artisan mixed greens were impeccably fresh and crisp, serving as an ideal foundation for the other components. The bright acidity from pickled onions and the house vinaigrette was masterfully balanced against the rich, unctuous egg and perfectly portioned Benton's bacon--a locally revered ingredient that is too often overused. Here, it was handled with exemplary subtlety, allowing each element to shine. For entrées, my companion selected the Chilean Sea Bass, paired flawlessly by Alene with an unoaked Chardonnay, while I enjoyed the Prime Rib Eye. Both preparations were executed with precision: the sea bass moist and delicate, the rib eye richly marbled and cooked to absolute perfection. That first bite prompted the kind of involuntary satisfaction that only truly exceptional cuisine inspires--eyes closed, a contented lean back. The wine pairings did more than complement; they elevated and transformed the dishes, creating a harmonious whole that felt greater than the sum of its parts. An unexpected highlight came with dessert. We had initially ordered the signature 10-layer chocolate cake, only to learn the chef deemed that day's batch imperfect. Rather than disappointment, we were met with gracious transparency and a complimentary replacement. We chose the Bananas Foster, a dish new to me, and it proved transcendent: warm, caramelized bananas nestled alongside creamy house-made ice cream delivered pure indulgence. I now find myself wary of ordering it elsewhere, lest it fall short of this benchmark. To accompany the meal, we enjoyed an expertly crafted Old Fashioned and a pair of Espresso Martinis, each presented in ideal glassware and demonstrating true mixology artistry. In a year just beginning, Raven Steakhouse transformed our first "date night" of 2026 into an unforgettable celebration of culinary excellence and impeccable service. The drive home was filled with conversation about when we might return--proof of an experience that lingers long after the last bite. For anyone seeking a luxurious dinner where outstanding food, thoughtful wine and cocktail pairings, and genuinely gracious service converge, Raven Steakhouse is wholeheartedly recommended. This downtown Maryville treasure not only lives up to its elevated reputation but surpasses it. I eagerly anticipate my next visit.

    hi guys my first time coming, here's my experience - best…read morehush puppies I have ever been graced with - serve drinks in big jars, but too much ice - gave us hush puppies, beans, pickles and coleslaw as an appetizer we didn't order--not sure if it was free or not but still yum - atmosphere is cute decor, but barely audible but good music. It's too quiet - there is a sign in the dining room that says where the toilets are, very amazing I am overjoyed - ordered food around 12:20, was served by 12:31 - fries are golden and crisp, but bland. Not much flavor, no seasoning - server was Mo, he is very nice, kinda cute. My sister asked if he was British (he was not) and idk if that was offensive so very sorry mo, you can have her firstborn child as a peace offering - grilled cheese is very nice, would be better with American cheese rather than cheddar. But that's just my preference. - I kinda changed my mind, the fries are pretty good - the water is flavorless, which was very disappointing. Uncrisp, but still good cold water I suppose - Kind of cold in here, wish I brought a jacket man - bathroom is clean - cute gift shop 9/10, I'll be back.

Customer service was good the food and it came out so fast I would definitely come back here. Yes huck Finn. lol.
