We've yet to find a favorite entree there but we'll keep trying.

The interior was a little too dark. The dinner rolls basket that comes with our pasta is tasty, but I'm shocked to see the rolls were just swimming in butter. The salad is the only 10/10 highlight. I got the sausage spaghetti with their home made sauce. After I had three bites, the sauce already separated, with a pool of clear liquid at the bottom of the spaghetti. The flavor is on the very plain side. And the sausage was just ok.

Our favorite Clinton TN restaurant…read more... Takes a while to adjust to the Orange. Tennessee-Ohio State not played often, when the Vols defeated the Buckeyes 20-14 in the 1996 Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida. The game featured a pair of huge stars. The Vols were led by then-sophomore quarterback Peyton Manning, who went on to became a Pro Football Hall of Famer and one of the greatest passers in NFL history. No. 8 Ohio State defeated No. 9 Tennessee 42-17 in the 2024 College Football Playoff first round on December 21, 2024. The Buckeyes dominated early, leading 21-0 in the first quarter and 42-10 by the fourth, led by Will Howard's two touchdown passes to Jeremiah Smith and strong rushing performances from TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins. Clinton has many Knoxville fans, and nearly all are wearing Orange Ball hats whilst dining. I goto my XT5 to retrieve my OSU National Champs hat. At any rate Gondolier is full and most folks are having Italian or pizza. Caveat: This place is too good to order pizza.

We were welcomed upon entering, seated promptly and the waitress, Victoria, came to welcome and take drink orders right away. We received prompt and very courteous service. Victoria was a pleasure to have as a waitress. She engaged in conversation and smiled. Things you would expect when giving your money for a service but are rarely afforded anymore. The food was delicious!! There was a good variety to choose from. We ended up with the gyro plate and sandwich. The flavor was great and everything was toasty warm upon receiving. Thank you, Victoria, for the outstanding service and kindness!

It then it took AN HOUR AND A HALF for our food to come out. And when it came out we only got 2 entrees and got the other 2 entrees 15 minutes later. We then wanted to get a dessert and we ordered it immediately when we got our entrees. We asked how long it would take and she said "5 minutes," well it took 20 minutes. Let's just say we couldn't have got our food any later because we were there till close, and we were the only table there. It was like pulling teeth to even get the check from our server and was just a dreadful experience overall. Ridiculous and horrible service!

However, the place next door Brother Wolf ( a cocktail bar) is connected , so you can walk through that way as well as the front door that looks closed :-/ The ambiance is great, loved the jazz music playing in the background ! A table for 2 is a bit too tight for fitting everything on it which takes away from the feeling of being relaxed . They missed out on selling a $250 dollar bottle of wine because even though it was on the list , they ran out. The focaccia bread was top notch !! My husband ordered the ribeye which was poor quality , lots of tendons & fat , tough and chewy . I ordered a pasta dish with " wild boar"!? It was beef for sure, like some sort of pot roast with noodles. It was tasty, but I'm not convinced it was the meat that was described.? Overall it was a nice experience and a decent meal.
