After some research into restaurants in Chattanooga, we came across Easy Bistro & Bar and we were not disappointed. From the hostess greeting us to her opening the door as we left, our experience was superb. Our server, Dakota, couldn't be nicer, helpful and understanding. She started by offering sparkling rose to celebrate our anniversary. The vibe is very upbeat and hip!!! The Steak Tartare wasn't like any we've had before, it was so interesting and flavorful, that we might go back tonight, just for that one dish. The Gramigna Psta dish was tasty and creative, well thought out and presented. We would have ordered more, but we had just come from a happy hour, won't make that mistake again, everything we saw looked scrumptious and all the other dinners looked extremely pleased. I give this restaurant and their staff my highest compliments and if we return to Chattanooga sometime in the future, it will be our first stop read more

This is my absolutely preferred restaurant to have dinner with my wife or family if we are celebrating something. The menu changes all the time (even oysters selection) which is fine, this way you are never bored and you can keep trying amazing food. For some people the many might be limited, but trust me when I say this place is really good. Service is always great perfect, at least the five times I have been in the restaurant and ambience is very cosmopolitan and fresh. Give it a shot, ask for recommendations and try multiple dishes to share with your party. read more

We had the happy hour oysters and espresso and dirty martinis. Our bartender was great but I can't remember her name. We stayed for dinner too and had shared appetizers. Definitely recommend this place if ever you are in the Chattanooga area. read more

They open at 4, but don't start serving dinner until 5. They do serve raw oysters and some low priced snacks before 5. You can only sit outside or at the bar before 5 as well. Our server was Reed. He was very accommodating and gave great suggestions. The food was excellent and the drinks were spot on. I really wish I had taken pictures, because the presentation was amazing. I would definitely recommend coming here. read more

I chose the Easy Bistro because it had been included in the new Michelin guide, though it hadn't earned any awards. I was also excited to stop in during the Oyster Hour. I was not aware that you can't order anything other than oyster during this time, except for a few other items (bread, shrimp, olives). Also, you could only sit at the bar or outside. It was a cool evening, but the heaters made it an ok place to sit. We ordered the Murder Point and Little Honey oysters. The Murder Point oysters were some of the best we've ever had, and we ordered two more. The Little Honey were too small to be enjoyable, so I wouldn't order those again. We also ordered some bread and butter. Folks, they brought out 1 1/2 slices of bread. For $6! It was just bread, nothing special about it. I would not order this again. I removed a half star for the lack of value. Luckily we came in at about 4:45 pm, so by the time we finished our oysters, we were allowed to order dinner entrees. I ordered the Steak au Poivre, which I though was good, not great. The steak lacked the peppery crust I associate with the dish. Rather, there were a few peppercorns strewn in a relatively non-descript sauce. I wouldn't order this again. The Steak Fries were delicious and some of the best I've ever had! I would definitely order these again. The service we experienced was not very attentive. The waiter didn't return after we had oysters for quite some time, even though I had told him from the onset that we wanted to order dinner. We lacked for water for long periods during our visit, not having received a carafe that some tables got. I took of another 1/2 star for the mediocre service. read more

Went back to Easy Bistro for a birthday celebration on Saturday 2/7, and was not given the typical Easy treatment that we have loved in the past. The menu is quite a bit smaller and more limited, on top of that after ordering a few small plates, we were told maybe 20 minutes after ordering them that one was no longer available (all fine in the long run, but I would have expected that to have been relayed to the server before service started). Once entrees came out, all but one were brought and our server was no where to be found for quite a while to address it with her. Once the final entree came (steak) it was not up to par with the other steaks on the table. A manager came and apologized, but that was all- no complimentary drink or dessert for the hassle, once again, not what we expect from Easy. We had a party of 8 and spent quite a chunk of money and were completely let down. Truly don't know if we will be back after the experience. read more

Do yourself a favor and have the Chef's Choice. So much easier than having to think about anything. Yummy

Would you plzzz have your bread baked in loaf's and sold!? That SHIT WAS WILDLY GOOD. NEVER BEEN MORE ADDICTED to a bread. Pretty decent spot in general, good ambiance, the dining area is classy and clean, the service was beyond good, and kind. The food was pretty good. Except for one thing The fish/ seafood, had a fishy taste to it. Like most definitely not Fresh or was not handled correctly, the octopus and the shrimp, it can definitely be better. Great wine selection, i did get Cabernet Sauvignon and was served in a Bordeaux glass! but im a snoopy wine ass. Also one more thing, bathrooms NEED ATTENTION! reminded me New Orleans dive bars. that was def disappointing. But aside from that pretty decent experience for a small town. read more

Easy Bistro - Bay Beauts Oysters - New American Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Best dinning experience in Chattanooga since moving here six months ago. Foodies will love Easy Bistro. Started with the raw oysters from the west coast that were clean, fresh, and firm. Beef Tartare was amazing. Hearth Roasted oysters were sooooo delicious. Felt like we were in France with the Gem Lettuce Caesar and Babette Steak. Au Poivre sauce was to die for. An amazing night and we will return. read more

One of the best dining experiences we've had to date.... Wow Chattanooga you're lucky to have Easy bistro. . We stumbled across this gem & had back to back dinners here. The cocktails are yum, the menu is perfect (innovative yet comfortable). The endive salad, the oyster selection is amazing, and the pasta was insane. The vibe is lively & fresh . We're bummed we didnt have room for dessert... but the profiteroles looked out of this world. read more

Maybe best time we've had in terms of taste. Their small plates usually shine the brightest because of the creativity and obvious heart in them - the sauces are fresh, fruit and herb forward. The tuna sticky rice was just single tear down the cheek worthy gorgeous. Would order that as an entree. Cocktails always way better than your average bear. Keeps us coming back. Beautiful gin cocktails. The pastas are always hands down a reason to come - I have amnesia each time and then recall anew each visit how grand they are. Tonight the grouper entree was just outstanding. Probably best entree we've had here. Beautiful piece of fish and as always the sauces are the star of the show. Bravo read more

Still dreaming about the oysters, fries and delicious drink that I had! I can't wait to visit again.

This is a must if you are in the area! The Oysters are 1/2 off until 5 and they offer a variety with a thorough explanation of the different tastes. The cheese platter was the perfect combination of sweet and savory only to be made perfect by the Manhattans. Very cool/chic vibe!!! read more

Wonderful setting for this Resturant. Very Cosmopolitan However my recent visit was very very disappointing Why. The "new" limited menu. I e NO Salads offered! Entrees feature only 3 Pasta Dishes and four dishes with the only fish being Trout Fix menu with salads and more entrees. Thank you read more

Our family of 4 (two younger kids) absolutely loved tonight's experience. We sat outside and the ambiance was perfect. The uni pasta was perfectly cooked and the drinks were fantastic. The best part of our experience was our server, Katya. She had such great recommendations and honest opinions about everything on the menu. The ramp oysters were the best grilled oysters we've ever had, so we ordered seconds. I've never had ramp onions before, so it was a very refreshing experience. Katya said her hometown used to serve sourdough with a very light coat of mayonnaise and ramp on top, which sounds amazing. We only visit once a year and hope to see that on the menu next time we visit! Also, please make the ramp oysters a permanent fixture because we will definitely order it every time we visit. read more

Oysters and drinks are always amazing. The hosts are helpful and kind and the bartenders are attentive. This is a repeat restaurant for us.

This is a dining experience you don't want to miss. First, the entire staff is incredible and friendly. Russell our server was very knowledgeable and made fantastic recommendations. Everything was coursed out in perfect timing. We had a group of 10 and we had an outstanding time. Every dietary need was met and each person loved their individual meals. Oysters were great. Pasta dishes were very tasty. Strawberry rhubarb shortcake dessert was my favorite. Somebody got up and a staff member immediately came and folded their napkin. This place just has it nailed down! Never waste an opportunity to create a memory around a table at a restaurant that's not easy bistro!! read more

This was our second time visiting here and still out was amazing. This time was a little more crowded and loud but still has plenty of space between bench seat tables. Our waitress was helpful and attentive. We ate the strawberry gazpacho and sour dough bread to start. It was new, fresh, and tasted wonderful. I got the half chicken and my husband got the pork shank. Both were fantastic. My favorite thing was the rice middlins. I'm still thinking about it days later. Drinks were great. I could make myself sick staying here all night eating and drinking everything. read more

An absolute treat of a restaurant. The atmosphere is great - lively but not so loud you can't have a conversation, wonderful and knowledgeable servers, and of course, incredible food. My husband and I came here for our 1 year wedding anniversary. They had a card on the table and the server congratulated us on our one year of marriage. We did the chefs menu and wine pairing. It was four courses/10 dishes, and cannot say enough good things. Every dish was a surprise and everything we had was incredible. Our favorites were the butternut squash soup, tuna sashimi, and both pastas. Honestly everything was to die for and such a fun experience! We will definitely be back. read more

2023 review update... An absolute jewel in the Chattanooga restaurant scene. Perfect for so many options. Large room for events, good for groups with large table. Excellent outside scene when weather permits. Cozy tables making one of the best date night feels in town. Raw bar area for customers too. My home is the bar bar. Fantastic bartenders like Rylan, Allie, Garth, Manu & Joe. Always feel at home here. That's on them. Tremendous people. Knowledgeable about the cast bar offerings and always spot on with wine pairings. It's the place to be. Tonight was an inventive tartare dish that included peanuts, figs & crispy okra strands. Fabulous. Paired it with lovely champagne. Learned tartare & bubbles from Michelin sommelier. Great call. The food is always exquisite. The atmosphere lively. You feel like you are somewhere special. The people put it over the top. Can't say enough good things of people like Rylan, Allie, Garth, Manu & Joe. Manager Miles is always on the front foot as well. Just a fantastic option. read more

Was in town visiting and My SIL took me here for our "Fancy Date night dinner", while we left all the kids with my brother! Super cute trendy little place, we started out at the bar and the Atmosphere here is GREAT, Friendly, Lots of whiskeys and bourbons and I felt soo out of place ordering Vodka, but hey, Im not a Whiskey girl! Drinks were good!! Bartenders were fun!! Ordered some oysters and my SIL didnt like them (Until I forced her to try one - She was making he try Foie Gras, so I told her she had to try some) and guess what?! She loved them so we ordered more and more!! Moved to our table, it was a super cute little one in the window where we got to people watch, and this also started the ordering of the entire menu - I swear we ate everything on the menu. Ok, so Foie gras, it wasnt something that made me say "OMG I NEED THAT EVERY DAY", but it wasnt bad, I didnt expect to like it at all, It was good - the bread it came on, OMG that was INSANE! The steak was one of the best I'd had, We got truffles on EVERYTHING we ordered, The pasta we shared was literally one of the best pastas I had ever had also! I drool when thinking of that sauce.. Mushrooms on the side were over seasoned and not my fave, but the Brussels salad was good, the fries were good. The Shrimp Cocktail was also really good for being JUST shrimp cocktail! Im from New England and we have great Oysters and all shellfish and I really didnt expect it to be soo great in Tennessee, but it was!!! Service was seriously the best around, Food was great, Drinks were great, I cant wait to come back to visit because this will be the first spot we go for Girl's night! Ooh and on the receipt when I got home I noticed they named us the "Truffle Girls" we literally ordered them on everything we ate!!! It was cute, so thats what I need to be known as here! read more

Let's start with.... I made reservations for 4 on Google which was pretty cool. What I didn't know is the locations had changed. This wasn't my first experience with Easy Bistro. The first time I went for brunch when it was down next to the Mellow Mushroom, and at that time I had a Bloody Mary that was untouched. The owner was tending the bar that day and I was impressed. Well this time I was surprised that the new location was simply beautiful. One of the first things I noticed was the open kitchen and bar. The next thing I noticed was the huge picture the Genesis painted. That's so dope. I of course ordered the Bloody Mary that they make the mix in house. Delicious. And the home fries and A la Carbonara. OMG! Mind blowing. I'll be back. Even if it's just for the Bloody Mary's... read more

We were visiting Chattanooga and Easy Bistro was recommended to us by someone we met at a local breakfast spot. We decided to take a chance and I am so glad we did. They have a broad selection of amazing cocktails, a fantastic wine list, phenomenal food, wonderful environment and terrific service. I had roasted oysters and my wife, Gnocchi with Morel mushrooms. Both dishes were delicious. If you are visiting Chattanooga go ahead and make your reservations. We will be vacationing in Chattanooga in July and are planning to visit again. read more

Knowledgeable bar staff made drink selections fun! Summer salad with burrata and assortment of fruits with heirloom tomatoes was memorable. Highly recommend. read more

Opened up the laptop for this one. Simply put, this place is consistent in flavor with depths of quality and true excitement in every bite. Lets start with the 6 varieties of oysters. They all vary in flavor but wonderfully consistent in size flavor and pallet descriptions. Top notch oyster flight. Show up before 5 if you want a killer deal Try the sides at the bottom. The pastas are legit. Asked about the spirits and with both food and drink, Try something new tonight. Great staff and atmosphere. read more

Rigatoni all' Amatriciana made with strawberries as part of the red sauce? Oh, hell to the yes! That pasta dish was so good. And, the glass of Barolo was tasty too. This place has really great food. I am going to attempt that strawberry sugo at home. Yum. read more

This was such a gem of a restaurant. We actually tried to get reservations at other places last minute and it was all booked so we (luckily) landed on Easy Bistro and it was probably one of the best meals I've had in a very very long time. Everything was so flavorful and we practically licked each plate clean. I forgot the name of our server but she was such a doll and added to the positive experience. We loved the whole mood of the restaurant--very nicely decorated and really enjoyed seeing all the staff wearing Hawaiian shirts. This place was great for our date night but definitely would recommend for special occasions! We will definitely dine here again when we're in town. read more
