Hey friends! I went out with some new coworkers to this cool spot downtown…read more This spot is the rose that grew from concrete. Bristol is a rural town but certain areas are becoming more chic, such as this rooftop bar. I ordered a brown sugar old fashioned to start with. It was AMAZING. I would definitely recreate it at home, the flavors balance perfectly. For my entree, I had the chicken sandwich. The batter was perfectly crispy and seasoned well. I like that they use chicken thighs, which are juicy and makes for a delicious sandwich. Fries were okay, I wish they weren't steak fries. +Our server was friendly! She recommended great menu items. +Limited parking +Outdoor seating with a beautiful overlook of the city. Indoor seating as well. +Prices are a little above average. +Restaurant was clean and well stocked. I hope enjoy!

Hands down, people, this is the best bar in Bristol. Why?…read more Happy Hour! M-F from 2-5pm, all the Shareables are 50% off and drinks are really discounted! It's a really great way to try the food! Food (5/5): Elevated bar food! The kitchen from the downstairs restaurant, Vivian's Table, makes the food and it is really delicious. We tried the popcorn shrimp, which are breaded and crispy. Really great. We of course, had to try the Mountain of fries - these are matchstick fries and the best part was the three different sauces that come with it. The chipotle ketchup was my favorite. We also tried the wings, which were good..I am not a huge wing fan, though. The jalapeno poppers (wrapped in bacon with a cheese filing) were great, as were the steak nachos. And of course, the hummus with the fry bread was great, too. My hubby liked the hazy IPA that was on draft. Even better at $3.50 a pint during Happy Hour. I really liked the cocktails - some of my favorite was a new espresso based tequila (for the summer menu) and the creamsicle. Service (5/5): Everyone up here is super nice - the manager Landry, bartender Raine and all the servers were really fantastic. Ambiance (5/5): Location - This is the top of the Bristol Hotel, and one of the only rooftop bars in Bristol. From the top you have a lovely view of the famous Bristol sign, great when it lights up at night.

Then he didn't do anything regarding my order for 25 minutes even though he literally walked past me 6-8 times. After a 25 minute wait without my order being taken or getting any service whatsoever, I walked out to find someplace that actually wanted to serve me and wanted my business. I will not ever go to The Corner again. There are tons of places on State Street and the surrounding area that will actually take an order, serve you and want your money. The Corner is not one of them.....go somewhere else. I will.

Stopped at Southern Craft Barbecue while passing through VA and it's a hidden wonder not too far…read moreoff the interstate. Wasn't expecting much, but the food was fantastic. BBQ tends to blend together after a while, but theirs stood out, good flavor without being overpowering, something for everybody. I got the smoked turkey sandwich and the turkey was so tender and juicy I almost ordered a second one, even though the first was plenty filling. I'd be back here in a heartbeat if I'm ever down this direction again.

All-in-all, it's an okay place to go. The service was very good and the decor was as expected for a BBQ joint. It would be a plus if they had a wider variety of sauces to make the meat more interesting. I'd rank them on par with Mission BBQ at a higher price point.

I've been going to State Line at least twice a week since 1998 and…read more "Never" had a bad meal, poor service or found a dirty bathroom.Their food is exceptional and I've never experienced bad service. I love their pulled pork sandwich, chicken plates and their food has always been fresh and just delicious. In 27 years of going there I have NEVER had a menu pick that wasn't very tasty or poor service. I was a high school music teacher and corporate pilot for 20 years and know what bad food and poor service really are! In addition to their great food I love their Thursday night karaoke. As a pilot who has traveled the world I always tried to find the best karaoke bars in wherever I was spending the night. I've been to karaoke bars from Oslo, Norway to Athens, Greece. Hundreds! Looking for the best karaoke bars in town that also serve food. And what I found and come to the conclusion was that State Line, in GOOD OLD BRISTOL TENNESSEE, has the best KARAOKE shows along with the BEST FOOD that could be found around the world. My apologies for this long missive. I'm retired now, my rabbits foot had no more hair on it, and have an armful of grand babies to entertain!

I asked the waitress to seat us outside but one party had taken all of the chairs and having a good drunk time. I would go back but would never try to sit inside during Karaoke unless you have ear plugs. All in all it was a great place except for the loud music and make believe want to be singers. My head is still throbbing. Advice to management = TURN the music down during dinner. Let it go as loud as possible after 9 pm.

We sat…read moreoutside on the balcony overlooking the Tennessee hills, with the sunset in the background, and the scenery alone made the visit worthwhile. I ordered the Lavender Lemon Honey Tini, made with Tennessee Hills Lavender Lemon, lavender syrup, honey syrup, lemon juice, and soda water, garnished with a lemon wheel. It was delicious--sweet, refreshing, and easily my favorite drink of the night. My date had the Raspberry Kiss, made with Tennessee Hills Lemon Vodka, raspberry purée, lemon juice, and pineapple juice. The flavor was good, although it tasted a bit diluted as the ice melted. The biggest drawback was the service. We had to ask three separate times for water, and it ultimately arrived from a different server rather than our waitress.

I ordered a burrito with shrimp, octopus, a whole poblano, avocado, shredded cheese all inside the burrito. I also asked for a lot of limes on the side. They came out after we took our order to go so he could check on it because he asked me numerous times about the cheese I wanted. I had said I do not want anything on top of my burrito and hate the liquid cheese. The person who made my burrito used the liquid cheese, similar to nacho cheese consistency on top. No shredded cheese inside. So they didn't give my bf his cheese sauce he paid for. My burrito was nasty. They didn't put a whole poblano, the first half of the burrito had a few small pieces of poblano, barely any octopus, no shredded cheese inside, they didn't give me any limes. I HATE this crap cheese sauce that "mexican" food places use in Tennessee. Legit Mexican food places don't use this fake liquid cheese. My bf said his nachos were good. Problem is.. I was on the toilet all night because of this cheese. I say this because it was the same cheese they put on his nachos and... he was sick to his stomach for the rest of the night and then he had his turn on the toilet.

As we wend our way to Florida, we spend the night in Bristol for one main reason. This restaurant!…read more (The Hilton Garden Inn hits all the marks too, but as I have nothing to add I'm not updating that review.) My husband ordered five enchiladas each with a different stuffing. While delicious, unless you haven't eaten since last Thursday, who can consume so many enchiladas?! I shouldn't talk. The house special quesadilla -- always excellent -- is a lot of food. Ever resourceful, I took half back, put the chicken and peppers on a bagel and ate it for breakfast! (Note to self AND my husband: next time let's split one and maybe forego the steak and chicken. Chorizo and shrimp?!) Moving on, the salsa bar is great with smooth, chunky, mild and spicy salsas. That's not counting the warm bean spread brought to the table with their thin and crisp chips. Our margaritas -- $6 each -- are not only good but pretty, topped with berries and a flower. Here it is, Monday night -- not a typical going-out day of the week -- and the place is busy with locals. Pretty good testimony to what's become one of my favorite Mexican restaurants.

The last time, nobody was in the location and after 5 minutes I had to grab my order. Today, I saw no one on the floor. The TO Go area was empty, and the shelf was moved behind the counter. I walked behind the counter to get my order. An employee screamed and yelled, at me aggressively from the bar area, then glared at me and stomped over. She was very confrontational. She later gave a very unemotional apology. It appears the pick up survey was disabled, out of concern of a bad review. So I will leave one here. Pretty concerning an employee screamed at me...I see why this place is always empty and never staffed.

The waitress was surprised when we said we weren't. Don't let that stop you, it's a beautiful setting with great food. Helpful hint: Wine tastings don't start until noon. So, if you want to do that plan for a later breakfast.
