My parents were visiting for the weekend and treated me to dinner at Gourmet & Co. Despite living in Johnson City for nearly two years, this was my first visit, and it did not disappoint. The restaurant is tucked away off Mountcastle Drive and has an upscale but welcoming atmosphere. All three of us ordered the catch of the day--the halibut--which was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Our waiter was very helpful for navigating the extensive drink menu. We also tried several cocktails, and the Bee's Knees was easily the standout. The lavender notes made it light, refreshing, and unique. Great food, great drinks, and a wonderful spot for a special dinner with family. read more

Gourmet & Co - Catch of the Day: Halibut - New American Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Walked in and met 3 hostesses. We explained we would like to sit at bar. One explained they had reservations for the bar so let her look. We thought fair enough however there was only one couple at bar and a lot of open seats. I went to restroom and when I came back my husband was still standing by hostess stand. Once she saw me she sat us at the bar. However we were sat in front of servers computer and drink station it felt very tacky. They had 3 seats reserved and a lot more open. We decided to let that go. Our server Cassie was very sweet and helpful. She explained the specials and was very attentive. Drinks were good, the food was phenomenal can't complain about it. Flavors were delicious everything cooked perfect. We ordered a coffee to go was perfect. Hostess made the review a 4 instead of a 5. read more

Gourmet & Co - Chicken, tenders and fries - New American Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Hands down this is the best restaurant in the tri-cities. We have been going for years because of the attention to detail, perfect service and cleanliness. The food is absolutely terrific and unlike most places these days - the staff REALLY cares. Do yourself a favor and give it a try. read more

Best dining experience in the Tri-Cities. Got the filet with root vegetables and it was so good. We live in Kingsport and there is a local steakhouse that ever told us to go to...not impressed. Gourmet & Co delivers with fine dining and food that matches. Our server was attentive and kept us informed why our meal took so long (they overcooked our steaks the first time) so they remade the entire meal and it was fantastic. The atmosphere was very nice and we will make this a regular for our special occasions. read more

Gourmet & Co - Angus Beef Filet - New American Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Love this restaurant! Their hummus is so delicious and all their salads are so fresh and delicious! My favorite is the grilled pimento cheese. I love their apricot tea and oatmeal raisin cookies. You can also purchase Colombian coffee that's extraordinarily delicious. The ambiance is amazing and incredible. The wait staff go out of their way to give you an excellent dining experience. I would highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Let your foodie adventure begin here at Gourmet & Co - must try! So I'm headed to Johnson City for work and my partner finds this article about 10 best restaurants to try in what was named "little Chicago" (some Capone history here). First on the list is Gourmet & Co. Open Table had no available spots for my one free night of dinner, but the restaurant website said to call them if you run into that problem. I called. Dinner for 1? Anytime? No problem!!! 7pm bar seating and away we go! My bartender/server is excellent-- busy as hell, but helpful, attentive and a delicious drink slinger. I start w a dirty martini with goat-cheese stuffed olives. Wow! Who knew? And he made it just how I like it. The menu had such delicious soy ding options, but I'm dining alone and only have one stomach. If my chosen specials were indicative of the quality of all the dishes, a chef tasting menu here would be phenomenal to experience. But alas, I chose with me 'literal' gut-- what sounded good to my belly -- go local it said! So we start with the locally sourced mushroom cream vegetarian soup - 6+ types of mushrooms with lots of mushroom bits to much on while you enjoy. Then, another special - grouper, crispy skinned, on a bed of local veggies - more local mushrooms, pea shoots, garlic, radish, fennel, and swipe of herbaceous sauce painted on the bowl. Fresh, bright, delish! And can we squeeze in a bit of sweet at the end? Why, yes!!! -- Local strawberry hand pie... Local strawberries, goat cheese filling, creme anglaise, and charred lemon sorbet. The crust was light and fresh, with more creamier forward (less than strawberry forward) filling and the lemon sorbet show stopper. Wonderful! Of course I needed to order the oatmeal cookie martini to sip on as I wrote this review for you. And it is a mind twistingly accurate oatmeal cookie flavor! Wow! Again, cannot say enough good things about the talent of my drink slinging mixologist with a heart who apparently has worked here 16 years -- speaks volumes! read more

Absolutely the best place to eat in Johnson City, Tennessee. It's clear that the owner and the staff care about the patrons. It has a beautiful atmosphere, very relaxing and the food is always excellent. They always bend over backwards to meet my specific dietary needs. Thank you gourmet. read more

My wife and I just had the worst experience at Gourmet &Co in Johnson City. The peach scallop salads that we ordered were tasteless and overpriced. $29 per salad was a joke. The fried chicken dinner was also a bust. Undercooked Mac and cheese along with a piece of breaded chicken also for $29 dollars was what we were served. The staff didn't seem to care when we brought up our concerns. I'd avoid this overpriced restaurant at all costs. read more

The cookies here are phenomenal so definitely don't skip dessert. I ordered a couple of items to go and really enjoyed the chicken salad on croissant. Highly recommend ordering that sandwich if you want something fresh and filling (the croissant is huge). I wasn't as impressed with the buttermilk fried chicken salad. The chicken tenders were a little dry and seemed over cooked and the little biscuits that came with it seemed gummy instead of flaky. I didn't dine in, but I came inside to pick up my order (and got distracted by the baked goods inside) and the interior seems like a great atmosphere to dine in and enjoy the space. Service was friendly and I'll return to check out the rest of their menu items. read more

Made a reservation on graduation weekend for the patio. When we arrived we were told that the patio was closed, and our reservation did not specify the patio anyway. Our specified indoor table was a little too close to the other patrons, post COVID, so we left. Don't imagine we'll ever be back. read more

I am not quite sure about the hype. I realize that Gourmet & Co perhaps used to be the bees knees, but it left me wondering why I paid so much and enjoyed so little. I would be willing to give it one more go -- but even our waitress left something to be desired. The decor felt like your mom's 90s kitchen but attempting to be sleek and relevant. read more

Stopped in for the first time this weekend. Food was delicious, service was on point, and the atmosphere was very nice. Will be back!

I would like to consider myself somewhat of a salad connoisseur so when I say this is the best salad I have ever had, that's huge! Everything about this salad was amazing. The goat cheese, the dressing, everything was absolutely delicious. The truffle fries were also so good! We got the cheese and charcuterie board as an appetizer and I really enjoyed all the cheeses that they chose to feature. The waitress we had was also so nice! read more

One star ONLY because of the requirement. Waiter was nice, we didn't know tips were going to be automatically written in BY HIM though. Rude rude RUDE and unprofessional manager or whomever. Smaller bald man. Never have I EVER had an employee at a restaurant come up to us after 20 minutes of being seated "we need the table..." and keep looking at your watch. For the price we pay yall need to step it up! read more

The food is phenomenal! We had fast friendly service. I was surprised when first entering the building. The exterior is more industrial. But the interior is very upscale. Almost like stepping into another world. Very classy ! Well done! Will definitely be coming back here when in Johnson City read more

I just hosted a bridal luncheon for my friend's daughter at Gourmet and Company. Everything was wonderful. The food, the service and the atmosphere were perfection. It's so refreshing in this day and age to have your expectations met and exceeded!! I highly recommend Gourmet and Company for your special event. read more

Gourmet is my go-to when I have customers in town for business and they never disappoint. The menu changes frequently based on local seasonal meats and vegetables. When available, the mushroom soup is outstanding....easily the best I have had. I would have to say they feature some of the best food in the Tri-Cities. read more

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at this restaurant. The inside was very clean, modern, and intimate. Our waiteress was very friendly, informative, and attentive. The food and ingredients were fresh, local, and simple, yet elegant. We ordered the charcuterie and cheese board, locally forged mushroom soup with shaved truffles and truffle oil, shrimp and scallop grits, 60 day dry aged ribeye, and a dessert. Wow, amazing! Will definitely be returning! read more

We had a lovely lunch. The Truffle fries are fantastic. I recommend the tuna melt with cranberry bread. The service was excellent. The relaxing atmosphere is very enjoyable. read more

I have passed by this restaurant so many times and not realized what a gem it is. My evening at Gourmet and Co. was simply fabulous. From the hostess who sang "fabulous" with us as we waited for our table, to our waitress Andrea, to the owners who made sure to connect with us as we left, the evening was picture perfect. My date chose this restaurant as our first date. He couldn't have made a better choice. We ate outside under a full moon and exquisite mood lighting. The food was phenomenal. He had mushroom soup followed by fresh grouper. I started with the duck confit and was so pleased with the shrimp and scallop entree. The restaurant boasts a robust wine list. We ordered a bottle of Riesling and it was a perfect complement to everything that we ate. I can't say enough for the professionalism of our server Andrea. She knew that this was our first date, but managed to give us space as well as check in on us at exactly the right times. She was cheerful and so pleasant. We will be back. I hope before our one year anniversary - but definitely then. read more

It's been hit or miss lately....not the exquisite food and service from the past. Tonight they were out of summer peas....didn't mention it, didn't serve it, didn't offer an alternative. If I'm paying $28 for a chicken dish, it needs to be amazing, not missing a third of the dish. So I am disappointed....it used to be a fun place for high quality local food. read more

This is a tough one. Food is great. Ambiance is great but they have one staff member that will make you never want to come back. She's been there for yrs and people keep coming back so I guess management is ok with the exception of her. And if you live in the area you know. I used to keep coming back but the last time with the same nightmare I can't go back. Sorry chef your food is great but you know who I speak of that's straight out of the villain chapters of a Disney movie. I'll keep on passing and spend my $ where even if the food were bad the staff shores up the ends. This ain't it. read more

It was my first visit to this restaurant. I was taking my daughter there for her birthday. As soon as we stepped into the restaurant we were greeted. Very cool atmosphere. The service was good and the food was excellent. Can't wait to go back. read more

Hands down the best restaurant in the tri-cities. The food is amazing, the ambience second to none and the owners personal touch on everything. They truly care about each customer's experience. read more

Says they are open on maps but they aren't actually open. Drove over to eat breakfast fast just to be turned away. Interior is cute but probably wont ever return. read more

My wife surprised me with a birthday dinner at Gourmet & Co. When I saw the exterior I was a bit apprehensive since it was located in a small strip center and very understated. She kept insisting that the interior would surprise me and she was 100% correct. Don't judge a book by its cover. The restaurant was quaint, very beautifully decorated and sophisticated. From the moment we were seated to the end, the service was spectacular. Our server Lindsey was amazing, so attentive and very pleasant. The food was exceptional and did not disappoint. It was very well prepared gourmet food that you would experience in some of the best restaurants in NYC. I cannot wait to go back and try their lunch menu. Thank you Gourmet & Co for making my birthday dinner a special one and thank you to my wife for surprising me. read more

Johnson city gem! Really good, fresh food. The tomato and basil soup is outstanding and matched perfectly with the grilled pimento cheese sandwich. The pea humus is also delicious, with plenty of cumin and a little bit of heat. All washed down with some delicious, unsweetened peach ice tea. Great service and great value too!! Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more

This is the most overpriced restaurant in Johnson City. A 5 ounce pan-seared haddock for $38.00 in a bowl of boiled vegetables with little taste. My wife's salad with salmon was done well. My first and probably last visit. May try lunch sometime. read more

Lunch and dinner are always delicious here it is a nice place to be it's a little bit on the fancier side. But overall just a nice place to eat. read more

Best seafood dish in town was the lobster & scallop dish w gnocchi. They change the menu every season so it will prob be replaced soon w their upcoming winter menu. One of the few chefs in a 100 mi radius that would be a James Beard contender! Yes, it's that good and creative. We also tried the wagyu beef dish that was perfection. Beet Salads were excellent w the apple butter smear--will try that at home! Loved every morsel. See photos as you can almost taste it that way! read more

My wife and I had a random lunch here. Food was excellent and the staff was extremely accommodating by setting up a table outside for us since we had our puppers with us. We will be back and look forward to a nice dinner when we didn't just finish up a hike. read more

Yes!!! Yes!!! Yes!!!! The foie gras (how do I show the fingers to the lips to make the kissing motion???!!!) Also had the oysters, and the heirloom tomato salad. My husband had the tenderloin which was exceptionally tender. The chocolate mousse cake added the finishing touch to our meal - this stop definitely didn't disappoint!!! Great food and great service! Do yourself a favor and visit here! read more

I have been wanting to come here for a while now, as I've heard such good things about it. Finally made it in today for lunch and tried a few different dishes. I have to say.... the food here is absolutely SUPERB! We were dressed very casual and noticed while we were there that most of the other patrons were slightly dressed up. Regardless, we were treated very nicely and nobody looked at us funny haha! Anyway, I'm guessing everybody in this area have already been here. If you haven't, make sure you DO! read more

Gourmet & Co - About to bite into heaven. - New American Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Had lunch with 10 people today and one of the ladies brought cupcakes. I ask our waitress for 10 desert plates and she charged me $15.00. She never said a word about the extra charge. I will never go back. Totally ridiculous. read more

I can see why this place has such great reviews! This is my first time in Johnson City, and I just picked one of the nearest restaurants from where I was at and came here! It did not disappoint either. First off, my server was absolutely wonderful. I travel for work and usually order in because I hate going to restaurants alone, but Luisa made me feel so welcome and didn't make me feel so alone! She even convinced me to try the amazing apricot tea, and made sure my glass was always full! Thank goodness she told me to get the BLT becuase I never would've ordered it without her suggestion! The tomatoes were locally grown and I could definitely taste the difference! The truffle fries were also top notch! Even if the food wasn't 10/10, I'd still be back just to see Luisa! read more

What a spectacular find. First the ambiance..I will describe it as comfortable and welcoming upscale modern sophistication. Next the food. Gourmet & Co. has one of those menus where it is tempting to order one of everything! We started w the truffle fries and they were absolutely divine perfection. Next up..a garden salad filled w vegetable treats -this was not a run of the mill salad! I had the mountcastle sandwich..delicious..w a side of fresh fruit that came w a delightful surprise of a dollop of what seemed to be homemade ricotta cheese. My husband had the burger and it was just a juicy wonder! We wanted to try the desserts but we were too stuffed. Next time! Last but not least..The service was helpful, attentive, friendly! We will be back...frequently! read more

Great food and great service. Loved the Jillton Vegeterian and the Steak was amazing.

This is a wonderful place to go for lunch and dinner. During nice weather they have patio dining. I recommend their tea- it's apricot tea and fantastic. They have one of the best cheeseburgers. The appetizer menu is delicious. The salads are good too. Oh - the goat cheese salad is fabulous. Truffle fries. Best in area. They use locally grown and raised ingredients. Just go - you won't regret it. read more

Wonderful! Elegant atmosphere, fabulously delicious and beautiful food, and the most attentive staff around. Make dinner an occasion, or enjoy their scrumptious lunch menu as well. read more
