The staff is friendly, and it's a place I've enjoyed coming back to for a long time. My only criticism is that the prices seem a little high these days. On my last visit, I paid about $30 including tip for a steak in a sack, while my fiancée got a cheeseburger with fries and a bottled drink. Overall, it's a great local spot with quality food that keeps me coming back.

Our…read morewaitress Kimberly was especially attentive and able to spend a couple of moments holding space as we revealed some current medical stuff ( sometimes life is heavy and it's nice when strangers can offer kindness and empathy) My sibling was delighted with the decor. Good biscuits and gravy are something I can not really access on the west coast so that was fun. I was very tempted by the waffles but that will have to wait for a future business.

We had to try Aretha Frankenstein's while we were in Chattanooga because I kept hearing about the…read morepancakes, and now I completely understand the hype. My husband is the breakfast person in our marriage, so this was absolutely his kind of place. We ordered the famous pancakes with their Blue Mélange blueberry butter, along with scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, and a biscuit. First of all, these pancakes are THICK. Not "slightly fluffy" thick. These things have some HEIGHT to them. But somehow they were still soft and fluffy inside instead of being heavy or dry. The blueberry butter on top was such a good touch too. Sweet, creamy, a little fruity, and completely different from just throwing regular butter and syrup on a pancake. The rest of the breakfast was classic and hearty. The scrambled eggs were good, the bacon was crispy, and the biscuit was huge. This is definitely one of those places where you should come hungry because the portions are not playing with you. I also loved the personality of the restaurant. It doesn't feel polished or cookie-cutter at all. It has this funky, quirky, old-school Chattanooga character that makes eating there feel like part of the trip instead of just another breakfast stop. And coming from someone who is NOT usually running toward pancakes or breakfast food, I still had to keep reaching over to my husband's plate. The pancakes were easily the standout for me. Definitely worth trying at least once while you're in Chattanooga, especially if you're a breakfast person. Come hungry, order the pancakes, and DO NOT skip that blueberry butter.

This place isn't just for a "grilled cheese". It's several unique takes on a grilled cheese. And it…read moredidn't disappoint. At all. I had the Alabama one (I forgot the full name) and it was melty and hot and yummy. Paired with a side of Mac n cheese - extra good. Blueberry lemonade to drink. All their food is made to order. So they're served hot. They have some comfy seating in the front plus bar stools. More traditional tables and chairs in the back room. I came for a Saturday lunch and it was quiet. Plenty of parking in the area. Next time I'm in Maryville I will stop in for another grilled cheese. It was just so good.

The sandwich was pretty good. I prefer a more classic tale with pork and ham versus deli ham and bacon but it was not bad at all. The shop and eating area is really cute. I like that the sandwiches are prepared when you order so you can customize anything if you want to. The cinnamon roll was hugely disappointing. The bottom portion was totally raw dough but the top that was fully cooked was way too dry. I love grilled cheese sandwiches and I liked that they sold cheese curds so I'd probably give this place another try. Service was also friendly, which is a plus.

I really wanted this place to be better…read more Pros: Very sweet and friendly staff. I'd say they all have worked there since the place opened. Just a mom and pops feel. Con: nothing appears to be hand made. I had Philly s cheesesteak which appeared to be made with the frozen steakums and a roll straight out a plastic bag. Fries were also fresh from the freezer. A lot of people are good with this type of food so I hope they continue to serve the community and thrive. I personally can't eat processed foods like that.

On the hunt for another good burger, we headed cross town to Jacob's, a wee grill and deli we've…read morepassed with interest for several years. With a sign out front claiming to offer " the best burger in town," we finally satisfied our curiosity when we sat down to eat the made-to-order $6 burger ($6.99 with cheese). While I can't say it's the "best burger in town" (since I have a few more places to try on my burger quest), it was mighty good and definitely worth a repeat! Jacob's new owner, Kelly, personally welcomes customers and comes by with refill offers and to ensure diners enjoy their meals. While a burger repeat is on my list, I'm stoked to also try their Reuben. Kelly claims my spouse and I won't be disappointed.

We stepped inside, and we were kindly greeted by the hostess. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and had a warm feel. The bar in the corner was both beautiful and extremely well stocked. J greeted us promptly at our table and gave us a thorough walk through of the menu. The offerings were creative and well thought out. We ordered the pimento cheese and grit chips appetizer. A great suggestion from J. It was surprisingly flavorful and super well balanced. I knew at that point, we were in for a treat. Even the iced tea was out of this world. My wife thought it was perhaps the best tea she had ever tasted. My bride ordered the Chicken Spiedie with fries and I did the beef and cheddar with onion rings. The beef and cheddar was absolutely delicious. It was piled high with juicy smoked brisket, smoked cheddar, blackberry bbq sauce and pickles. The order of onion rings and fries were more than enough to share. They were also just fabulous. I have a feeling, everything on the menu is delicious. We finished things off with the Mama's Brownies. Just bonkers. That is all I have to say: Warm cookie dough layered with a vanilla cheesecake center topped with vanilla bean ice cream with a caramel and fudge drizzle. It was an outstanding suggestion. The food was excellent. The service was top notch (thank you J). I plan on spending a significant amount of time here trying everything on the menu. Do yourself a favor and head over for dinner tonight. You can thank me later.

I have been going here for a very long time. I experienced the best version of this restaurant when…read moreBecky was cooking and making 12/10 burgers. This place is still great, but it's not on the same level as it once was. Food: 4.5/5 I got the Monster Burger with Pepper Jack cheese and a side of French fries. The burger was cooked very well but could have used a bit more seasoning. The Pepper Jack cheese could have been a little spicier, but I understand that each brand has a different spice level. Today's fries were just good, but most of the time they are great. You will learn quickly that I am a French fry connoisseur, and I will always say that crinkle-cut fries are the best in the game. This place serves crinkle-cut fries, and most of the time they absolutely hit. ‍ Service: 5/5 I went around 11:20-ish on a Wednesday, and it was packed! It's great to see the business still doing well, but it did take some time to get my meal. However, it was worth the wait, and the service is fantastic. The staff works extremely hard, and they make the experience enjoyable even during busy hours. Atmosphere: 4/5 The restaurant is absolutely clean, and they take great pride in keeping it that way. I will say there isn't much table space, but that's due to the size of the building. I honestly wish they would move to a bigger location because they deserve even more business and additional staff to help support the incredible team they already have. Value: Cannot Judge I can't fully judge this category since my dad treated me to lunch and paid for it. That said, the portion sizes for the prices seem fair and fitting. Final Thoughts Like I said before, Becky's is not on the same level it once was, but I still love this place! It's always a pleasure being served by a great staff while chowing down on a good Monster Burger. If you're a burger fan, then you should absolutely make a trip to Becky's!

Yup, right there anchoring down the corner of Mulberry and Grove Sts was ANGIE'S KITCHEN. Wow...they offer several menu items but I bet you 9 out of 10 people choose the scrumptious OLD TYME BUFFET. It had everything you possibly could desire. The salad bar featured beets and locally grown tomatoes that had the taste from years ago. Fried Chicken, Pasta, Potato Salad, Cole Slaw, Fish, Soups (2), .....ohhh my I cannot remember all the delicious items. The only thing exceeding the scrumptious buffet was the attentiveness and spirited attitude of the server. Her name was Leslie or Lindsay ... let her choose which name but she married into the family. She was such a memorable person that one remembers. Thanks, Angie's Kitchen. Hope so much to come thaty way again.

The burgers are consistently delicious, and the menu is packed with satisfying Southern comfort-food favorites. A lot of the menu features fried items that appear to be frozen then fried fresh just before they are served. That is not a criticism at all; the food comes out hot, crispy, and full of flavor. The chicken-fried steak is a great example. It is not a handmade steak prepared from scratch in the kitchen, but rather a prepared patty--and it is still absolutely delicious, especially when you order it as a sandwich. Be sure to try the fried squash or fried okra. Both are crispy, flavorful, and among the better versions I have had around town. They also serve some of the best sweet tea I have tasted anywhere. Breakfast is another reason to visit--their morning food is outstanding. Add in the friendly, welcoming atmosphere and a serving staff that is always top-notch, and you have a place that is easy to recommend. This is one of my favorite local spots and definitely somewhere you should go if you are looking for a casual, tasty meal.
