Tennessee Tap House makes a flavorful and hearty cheesesteak! I don't know how, but a toasted roll, red peppers, and provolone cheese complement each other. This cheesesteak ate heavy and light all at the same time. It came with great fries. We got a soft pretzel appetizer so we could try the beer cheese. That was a great idea!! The beer cheese was creamy and tasty!! Could a smart person tell me why more places don't offer beer cheese? Dogs stay on the patio. It was a chilly night. The waitress was great. She kept a good eye on us. I liked my beer. I liked my beer a lot!

Cazzy's is snazzy! It's a solid place with a good menu, slightly more upscale Americana…read more I ordered the spicy pork bowl. I liked the sauce on the pork and the sunny side up egg brought a good amount of yolk into the dish. Everything mixed well with the sesame flavored cucumbers and jalapeños. The rice was pretty plain but paired with everything else it was fine. I think I'll try one of the salads or power bowls next time, as they come highly recommended! I also had a bite of the smoked salmon from the power bowl and a bite of the chicken piccata. I normally don't like chicken piccata but the lemon and caper flavor did not overpower and the angel hair pasta was very soft. A bit on the pricier side for a lunch but I enjoyed what I had at Cazzy's. I hear both locations are very consistent as well.

I felt like the food was a very strong 4 but the service was a 10 which is why we gave them 5 stars. Chris was our server. He explained the specials, the new items, gave us very honest and open feedback about choices when we asked for more information. He took a sincere concern for the food allergies we have and understood how cross contamination occurs. He wanted us to be safe. I LOVE that when we told us about dessert options he mentioned one had alcohol but that it was "cooked out " in the sauce. I'm 9 years sober so it's imperative that I know when there's alcohol in or cooked out of a dessert. Not enough serving staff do this. They had just sat a whole bunch of tables so Chris told us right away they were backed up in the kitchen. He gave us a timeline and let us know if we knew what we wanted he'd get our order in immediately to hopefully help with the time. We did that. Food came out much quicker than expected and he kept communicating with us. Food looked good but unfortunately they brought out the wrong food for me. I ordered fish and chips and got chicken tenders. Chris didn't bring it out to us but immediately when we found out he expedited a new order. It was out in less than 5 minutes and was perfect, even with the no seasoning and extra crispy fries. My husband had the bison burger. He said it was a bit bland and a bit overcooked but otherwise good. He really enjoyed the sweet potato fries with it. There was a nice amount of food left over from my dinner and it was the perfect amount for my husband. Chris welcomed us to come back and see him so we could have someone to rely on who knows our food allergies. He encouraged us to become regulars of his. His communicating skills were excellent. So even when we had a couple problems it was easy to smooth it over because he cared so much. We will definitely be back in his section and try something new. Thanks Chris for an excellent dinner experience.

Not a big breakfast fan but I had to find a casual place to meet someone for brunch. Maple Street…read morewas a good choice. I ordered The Farmer, a chicken biscuit with cheese, bacon, and apple butter. The biscuit was warm and fresh, the bacon was crispy, and the chicken patty was quite substantial. The poor thing was drowning in apple butter though, which made it too wet (and too sweet). Even scraping some of it off it was already too soggy. A tad less sauce and it would be perfectly balanced. The smashbrowns had a nice crisp and I enjoyed the kick of the pepper jam. Also, big fan of the cute coffee bar. I could taste the hints of maple in the coffee. If I have to eat out for breakfast, Maple Street seems to be a good choice. And yes, this location is on Kingston Pike not Maple Street.

Unfortunate for me though, I had to sit right under an air conditioning duct. I bet that the gentlemen were wishing that it was my girlfriend who had that seat. (I think you get the points.) Our meals were as fresh as can be, and tasty too. We had no problem cleaning our plates. It was fairly crowded when we got there. But if you don't mind sharing a table, you'll find a spot for sure. There's outside seating if you like. Quick Tip: Get there early, or get there late, cause if you get there during prime chow down, you'll be lucky to find a seat. Even the cold zone will be occupied. You may want to wear a bra....Just in case.

We had a chef salad minus meat and egg (vegetarian daughter in tow), a kids cheese pizza and the abridged cheeseburger. All three items were terrific. The only slight criticism is that the pizza kitchen is separate from the main kitchen so the pizza arrived in 5 minutes along with the salad and then the burger came out 15 minutes later. No knock on the restaurant because all three dishes were terrific and cooked to order. The quality of the ingredients stands out as superior to most restaurants and you can tell they care in how they plate and prepare the dishes as well. We sat at a high top table in the bar and the server was polite and friendly.

Cocktails were well done and the wine pairings recommended astute. Nothing to complain about except some of the items were cold - there was one person serving the entire bar and restaurant and obviously had some timing issues. Also some attitude: after delivering cocktails to my wife and me he forgot her mom's - after I reminded him he said "oh I know" and then proceeded to serve four other patrons' order at the bar and then another two top's before even starting hers. It finally arrived after the cold mushrooms were delivered. I'm chalking this up to a short staffed situation and a specific individual, so if you live nearby or are traveling through looking for a nice spot for dinner or lunch I would definitely recommend. The environment is also very pleasant with a nice bar and dining room of high top tables.

My friend got fish and chips, which was excellent, too. Of course we shared a dessert-the chocolate turtle cake was warm and rich, topped with the perfect pairing of vanilla ice cream.
