Not the place for me…read more.. I would guess this is a good place if you are someone from the neighborhood or a regular but it was not friendly and the service was bad. The food was OK, but i expected some English pub type food, but it was just the same type of sandwichs prepared differently. The service was bad. I ordered my food and had pay for it right there just like at a Burger King. They dropped the food on the table and left. Nobody ever checked back to see if it was made correctly or if I needed anything. So many other places with better service and food - definitely a hard pass on a return visit...

We really enjoyed stopping here for breakfast. Yelpers came…read morethrough again. A nice menu of traditional American and Mexican dishes, specials, and attentive service. Don't let the strip mall setting and location fool you, this place has the vibe of a family restaurant. It's totally on our "come back" list!

It'll get busy and crowded during a UTK game but it's an amazing atmosphere if you're looking for a good place to party. For $11 you can get a huge helping of boneless wings. Mac n cheese bites are also really good! For drinks, I'd suggest the Tennessee Dream. It tastes like a creamsicle!

Cool beans is a great college bar. The weekends get crazy, especially after game days but that's…read morekind of the whole point. The drink specials are great and cheap just don't come with the expectation of getting a table and a chill conversation because this place gets LOUD and PACKED unless you come on a weekday around 5.

I came on a weekday, right at 11am before the lunch crowd rushed in. I was really excited for the…read morecream of mushroom soup that they had on their online menu for the day. But instead, the bartender told me that it would be a chicken mushroom soup today because that's what was left over from the day before. A little bummed out, I ordered that soup and a BLT. The BLT came out just on naked bread, with no mayo at all. As I was in a bit of a rush today, I ate it the way it was. I really loved the ambiance of the place with the dark wooden bar and the oil painting of Miss Lil at the center of the bar. In the end, I just kind of wished that the food matched the ambiance.

We were going to a show at the Bijou next door and were pressed for time. The place was full but…read morewe were served in time to make our show. Wait staff was friendly and timely. I had the pasta pomodoro. It was an ample portion but bland. My companion had the salmon. The salmon was cooked perfectly. The chimichurrie on top really made the dish. The fennel really came through. It was served with chickpeas and broccolini. I highly recommend the salmon dish. The Bistro is highly recommended. If it hadn't have been for the bland pasta, I would have given it a 5 star rating.

Great spot! Wow!…read more While passing through Knoxville, we stumbled upon the Preservation Pub. We had seen a band was playing, so we figured we would drop in and check it out. Not a bad spot on a Tuesday night! Band was lively, and the crowd was friendly. Didn't realize at first that there were three(+) levels, so finding the arcade on the second floor (as well as another bar) and the roof patio (with yet another bar) made this place super fun. Lots of different settings depending on what you are looking for. The rooftop was great though - giving a view of the city, as well as a lot of interesting built in art. Also loved the artistic (signed decorated) washrooms - that was a hilarious and unexpected touch! If I lived in Knoxville, this would definitely be one of my go-to spots!

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.

Our server, Kimberly was awesome. Her satirical sense of humour was right up our alley. The food…read morewas excellent, especially the pancakes with blueberry melange. The atmosphere was a blend of Punk Rock meets The Macabre. - a kind of Iggy Pop kind of vibe. The biscuits are exquisite - big and flakey Cats-head type of biscuits that Grandma would be proud of. They pair well with the apple butter that is available on every table. The spicy grits can't be ignored either - not just heat, but amazing creole flavour. I liked this place, you never know what to expect when a restaurant gets hyped up but here, at least, the hype is well lived up to.

I wanted to grab a delicious breakfast this Valentine's Day, and since I was right across at Fisher…read moreTire, I was watching all of the people flooding into Rami's Cafe. At around 11:00 am, I walked over and grabbed a seat at the bar, because all of the other tables and booths were filled with happy diners. On one side of the menu you have your breakfast, and the other has everything you'd want for lunch. I started with my usual cup of coffee, and then opted for the two eggs, toast and bacon. For a place that was packed, my food didn't take very long to come out. Everything was delicious, and I especially loved that they had an option for marble rye toast. Sally, my waitress, was the sweetest. She took great care of me and made sure my first time here was perfect!! I also loved their hanging lights and sweet Valentines decor, which was a nice touch. I will certainly be back, and hats off again to you Sally!!

There is sufficient quantity within the meal and for the price its a very good value. Parking is limited (BUT it's an old neighbourhood bar) and so patience is required. Its clean and bright inside. Well worth a return visit.
