We're in Knoxville this week for a conference and had been staying downtown, mostly walking or…read moretaking shuttles everywhere. Tonight, we needed to run to the store, and while driving away from the city we actually commented on how there didn't seem to be many restaurants around. A few minutes later, we spotted Ye Olde Steak House sitting off the road on the left and immediately thought, "That place has character." After shopping, we decided to head back and give it a try...and I am SO glad we did. Walking inside felt like stepping into an old rustic cabin full of warmth and history. We were greeted by a gentleman in an apron who welcomed us with a smile and joked, "Well, I don't typically seat people, but let's give it a try." He laughed, found our server, Kendall, and got us settled at a table. From the moment we sat down, the atmosphere felt homey, genuine, and completely unpretentious in the best possible way. The gentleman chatted with us for a moment and mentioned he had worked there for 57 years. When we looked at the menu and read the story on the front, everything clicked...this place is truly a Knoxville institution that has perfected its craft over generations. The menu was refreshingly simple: appetizers, sandwiches, sides, steaks, prime rib, chicken, shrimp, combos, specialties and desserts. No gimmicks. Just great food done right. Kendall was our server, and she was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. So kind, genuine, attentive, and full of great recommendations. We started with the charbroiled shrimp she suggested, and WOW...incredible flavor. Served with drawn butter, but honestly didn't even need it. We could have easily ordered a second round. The salads were old-school perfection: fresh iceberg lettuce, tomato, purple onion, carrots...exactly the kind of starter salad I love. We added bacon and cheese, and the homemade ranch was fantastic. Then came the star of the show: our filets. As a native Texan, I do not take steak lightly. We are surrounded by incredible steakhouses and barbecue back home, so I came in ready to judge. The gentleman who was cooking actually brought the steaks out himself and asked us to cut into them to ensure they were cooked properly. Y'all...this steak was fantastic. Tender like butter. Perfectly cooked. Honestly a great steak...sure kicked the pants off some of those high-end steakhouses that charge triple the price. My baked potato was perfectly cooked and a decent sized potato too. And I have to mention the little touches too...the club crackers and cheese spread they bring to the table when you arrive were an unexpected surprise. I'm not a big bread person so I enjoyed that difference. One of my favorite parts of the evening was simply watching the dining room around us. Prime rib plates were flying out nonstop, and at one point the woman behind us gave her husband a bite of hers. He closed his eyes and said, "Oh my gosh, that is amazing!" You could literally see the joy on his face. Safe to say when I return to Knoxville, I WILL be ordering the prime rib. As the night went on, we realized the gentleman who originally seated us was actually the owner, David. He came back by to check on our meal, and later we saw him bussing tables and helping everywhere he could. When we asked if he does it all, he simply smiled and said one of his servers was out sick and he wanted to help. Kendall later confirmed he's the owner and told us, "He's the kindest man. He does everything...cuts meat, seats tables, helps cook, cleans up... whatever is needed." She also said she truly loves working for him, and honestly, you can feel that culture throughout the restaurant. This isn't a flashy, fancy steakhouse...it's something different. It's authentic. Family-owned. Generational. A place built on hard work, hospitality, consistency, and genuinely outstanding food. If you're visiting Knoxville or even just passing through, look this place up and make the stop. Thank you to David, Kendall, and the entire team for such an unexpectedly amazing dining experience. We'll absolutely be back.

The burger was cooked a perfect medium, and the wedge was fresh, crisp, and exactly what we were looking for. Even though we arrived late, the service was excellent and never felt rushed. There was still a lively crowd, and the restaurant had a great atmosphere. The bar is especially impressive, with towering shelves stocked with an enormous bourbon selection, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. Great food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend.

I really try and not post bad reviews but this is one is needed after our experience last night…read more Please know that we have been to Stock and Barrel many times during our visits to Knoxville and always enjoyed our experience. After last night I'm not sure if we will ever return. We were seated outside at a table that was right in front of the in and out doors. We waited almost 15 minutes before someone came to wait on this. Honestly this would have been longer if my husband hadn't gone in to ask about a server for our table. Mind you, there were plenty of servers walking to help the other tables around us as we were waiting. Finally a server walked up, her name started with an A, and she was very flippant with helping us. I ordered a beer and my husband ordered water and son ordered a soda. We also went on and ordered since we had no idea when she would return for our order. She brought the water and soda but no beer and then we didn't see her (at our table) until our food came out. My beer came out with the food, a good 10 minutes after I ordered it. I know you may be thinking that the bar was backed up but her other table (that arrived after) got their drinks right away and also a 2nd order of drinks before I received my beer. She never came to check on us with our food and spent more time at the table that arrived with her friends. Her attitude and personality was vastly different with our table versus her friend's table. When it came time to get us our check. I saw her roll her eyes and walked towards us. I let it slide instead of calling her out on her actions as I just wanted to leave. We paid our check and left. I truly feel like this will be our last time here because of the service we received. We have many friends who travel to Knoxville for various sporting events (since I'm in that industry) and I always recommend Stock and Barrel. After last night, I'll be recommending some other place.

Of the 5 night we were in town, we visited The Appalachian 3 times - not just for the quality of…read morethe food, but also for the quality of the people. From ensuring they source fresh, seasonal ingredients to creating a welcoming atmosphere, it's obvious that everything is done with passion and attention to detail. The night we came in for dinner, we had the joy of having Mariah as our server. We had the fried chicken skins, the à la carte ribeye and sirloin, mashed potatoes, broccolini, and summer squash, and then the cobbler for dessert. The drinks were strong pours, everything was seasoned perfectly, and the service was impeccable. Another night, we came in for drinks and dessert and had the goat cheese cheesecake and Pots de Crème. If you're looking for a restaurant that's the perfect combination of great food and great vibes, this is absolutely it.

First off, the restaurant is truly stunning! Service was excellent too. We started with the Fried Chicken Skins. My friend had heard good things for a friend, but we weren't particularly impressed. I had the Hanger Steak as my entree, and it was delicious. I especially loved the potato dumplings! My friend had the Kansas City Strip, cooked medium rare, with broccolini. Initially, the steak was overcooked, but the staff quickly cooked another steak and made it right. Overall a really good experience! Downtown Sevierville has really evolved, and we enjoyed walking around and exploring after dinner.

So I went, they were not wrong. When I arrived I was met by a gentleman (I did not get his name ) who directed me to a table overlooking the restaurant, the atmosphere is inviting. My server Tyelo was delightful, very friendly and attentive, she familiarized me with the menu. I asked her what would be the restaurant's signature meals. I decided on getting the elk sliders with blueberry jam as an appetizer I've never had elk before, so this was definitely going to be new and it was delicious. Then I got a bowl of Texas red. Avocado, corn salsa. Smoked Gouda, crema, crispy tortilla. This is basically a chilly bowl with no beans just meat. I personally don't care for hot spices, but although this was hot for my taste, it was delicious and worth it. The main course, Elk loin, Swiss chard, hen of the woods, salsify, candied blueberries. The elk was delicious and the candied blueberries really enhance the taste of the meal. Along the meal I had an old fashioned. At the end of the meal a gentleman who introduced himself as Steve came over to the table and offered me a digestif in a chilled cordial glass it was great. All in all, a great dining experience Food-excellent, service - outstanding Ambiance also excellent. Thank you Tyelo and Steve for the experience.

A server will come around with one choice at a time. Either take some, or not. The small tongs are for picking up your serving from the server. Do try the pineapple, it's very good.

When we arrived on a Saturday night it was pretty busy, with quite a waiting list. When you walk in there is a board you add you name and number in party to. There are two doors - door on right leads to the bar area, door to left leads to the more dining like room area. While we waited I decided to go to the bar and grab us a few beers, very reasonably priced. The place was packed so it did take a minute to get served but not a big deal. We waited in the "hallway where we walked in" and it maybe took about 15-20 minutes before we were seated. We ended up being seated on the bar side at a high top. Our waitress was quick to come over with menus and get our drink order. We ordered a Pete's Ribeye (rare) with baked potato and onion rings and a Pasta Alfredo with a baked potato as a side. Everything was very good. The ribeye was a little gristly and I should've ordered it medium rare rather than rare since it is a little more of a fatty steak and needed the few extra minutes to render the fat. Onion rings and baked potato were good. My husband had the pasta and he said it was good. We will definitely go back and try it again! Pricing was overall very reasonable too, I think both meals, and a few rounds of drinks we were under $50 not bad at all!
