    I tried FryDay Fish for lunch today. Let me tell you about it! I met the owners Donell and Felicia (they are the sweetest). Felicia helped me figure out what to order. She made suggestions. I landed on the 1 piece fried catfish basket with fryz (I added an a la carte piece of fish). The fish came out hot....steaming hot actually. Felicia had me check my order before leaving so when I opened the container I could feel (and see) the heat. The catfish was flavorful....the seasoned breading was on point. Fryz were hot and crispy. Now I LOVE a good hush puppy and these were delish. I highly recommend FryDay....something new to The Ville. Note: they are take out only right now.

    Loved it! It's a very small place and quite new. Mom and pop. It's inside of the L shaped strip mall at the intersection of 72 and Chaney Dr. Everyone is super friendly! Met a few folks that are repeat customers. We tried all the things they suggested. The food is simple and strait forward, cooked just right. Great collard greens and spaghetti. The sauces were especially good! The remoulade and tartar sauce is good on everything! Hush puppies are sweet with corn inside. My favorite items on the menu were the fried tomatoes, fried salmon sandwich, and the blueberry lemonade. Be aware that there will be a wait because it's a smaller location. You can order ahead, I saw a few people doing that. We just enjoyed the time to chat!

    We recently tried FryDay fish for dinner. We all loved it. Fish was fried to perfection and seasoned well. We had greens, waffle fries, and Mac n cheese as sides. We tired both catfish and buffalo fish. We will definitely be back. Excuse our pictures, we started eating before thinking to take a picture

    I love Jim's Place! This restaurant is a gem and I've always enjoyed dining here. In the past, I…read morewould visit with a group and have dined in their private dining area as well as their semi-private dining area. The service has always been great and the food is always good! My husband and I decided to visit after securing an available reservation on Opentable. We were seated in the bar area, which was fine. The bar area was pretty lively that night and there was a game on. I ordered the Bourbon smash drink which was soooo good! I enjoyed it so much that I made note of the recipe so that I could make my own version at home. The bread that we started out with was very good! I ordered the petit filet and my husband ordered the Norwegian Salmon. My steak was cooked as requested, but the flavor was just okay. The Brussels sprouts, however were excellent! My husband's salmon was a nice portion and was greater than 4oz, which he truly appreciated. He confirmed that the flavor was great too. Overall, great dinner, great drinks along with a friendly and prompt server which made this a great night out. Rating 5 stars because of the amazing meals I've had here over the years. I highly recommend!

    Such a Generic name that doesn't hint or celebrate its Greek heritage or menu, why? If not a local,…read morehow many more looking for a twist on your American grill/steakhouse, might try you on for size? Owner's Yelp About Business info doesn't clue you in either that the Grille has Greek roots and menu influence. By digging to see the names Taras, Dimitri, and (Jim) Katsoutes, the original owner of Jim's downtown 1921 would you guess, and as a 3rd gen family business they obviously have a following. And after that buildup, just not us, albeit that we all ordered fish. With ribs in town, limiting the week's caloric uptake was a check for the ticker ;) Shrimp cocktail $21 comes with 1/2 doz long & large, grilled with a steak like pepper seasoning, ie Grecian, served warm in cold cocktail sauce edged by bibb lettuce that looks great in a stainless cocktail stem, but no one was eating haha. 3.75/5* but my BIL who is a local, person always gets. For him it's a 5. Greek Salad $24 with salmon aok but again BIL loves this place. Norwegian Salmon entree $27 was overcooked, ordered rare and blackened, and not spicy at all. Entree comes with 2 sides; hubby chose a side salad which was just blah spring greens, tomato, cuke and croutons, but a cloyingly sweet balsamic dressing didn't help either despite 3 lemon wedges. Better option would be if they offeres a Greek side salad. Mash, the other side was fine. 3.5/5* Halibut fresh catch of day $37 is about 6-7oz asked for chargrilled, it was more delicate like cod, lacking the flakey firmness and oilier flavor or halibut. Select your sauce: a Mediterranean-- feta roma red onion, but a light hollandaise? & bacon??..is that a TN thing to add bacon to everything lol. Or the Creole with Parmesan, again why add Cheese/fat to a sauce that should be perfect without? the Lemon Garlic is butter based so whileI hoped for 2 great sauces, I steered to a heart healthier olive oil & oregano blend on the side. But it was just kinda oily without fruitiness or burny polyphenols of EVOO; the Lemon wedge was best. Turnip Greens cooked with ham hock, was not noticeable--fine by me, cooked down to texture of canned spinach and not at all bitter. Liked this the best, shockingly lol. Really wanted to try the Grecian rice but it's cooked in yes, butter, that fat suck again sigh, with Chix broth topped with a tomato Greek spice. So stuck to a plain Baked Idaho tater dressed down skinny sans bacon n cheese. 3.5/5* Good pour of Sazerac Rye in Old Fashioned. Full glass of little rocks suck though vs the signature big block ice for pro's, that waters it too quickly and visually no comparison. 3/5* $14.42 ok, but sticker shock another $4.20 additional Liquor Tax for 2 drinks, damn. I am sure the full duty Hickory n Oak grilled Lamb Chops & steaks are great but nearing $60 I'd choose elsewhere based on our fish dishes, while edible were not worthy of the billing and nothing we'd crave, ditto for the sides. Too bad because the true Greek influence has been buttered, cheesed, and baconed out. Dining Room is busy and energetic which is always good, lots of waitstaff, moody medium and dark brown decor, quite inviting. Jason did a great job on our table, but the proof, not in this pudding today. Thanks anyway, now moving onto those Ribs, Charlie Vergos :D

    As an international traveling food critic and unbeknownst to the staff, the following is what I…read moreexperienced: - The hostess failed to read the request inside the reservation for requested seating location. + Server Jayla, was outstanding throughout, especially for being her first day and maybe her first table. Her situational awareness and attention to detail are spot on. Her positive and upbeat attitude instills that back into the establishment and the people around her. - Took over 40 minutes for our meal to arrive from ordering and it was cold. - Asparagus was puny and old, tasted like twigs, and had the consistency of it. Had to spit it out. - Very overcooked egg on top of the hamburger. If you are in the area DO NOT waste your time dining here!!!

    The first weekend in March, my entire family showed up to celebrate my mom's birthday. Overall…read moredecent experience. I made the reservation via OpenTable and when calling to increase my headcount, I was told I had to speak with the GM. Unfortunately I was never able to catch up with him until the day of my event. To ensure everyone would be seated (~20 people), I had 2 reservations, which was frowned upon. Luckily we were all seated in close proximity. Even though we had a reservation, we still had to wait almost 30 minutes to be seated, which I found interesting because I had to confirm more than once. Due to the size of our party, we had 2 servers. The one over my table was Lin, not sure the name of the young lady. Lin was very attentive and ensured we were taking care of in a timely manner. Service with the female server (from the what I was told) wasn't as great. My food and drink were great. Tasty, Warm and Delicious. I also ordered Philly Steak Eggrolls but ate them too quickly to snap a picture. I was not a fan of the new sauce that comes on the side.
