She was on top of everything and had some great conversation. The place was packed but she wasn't rushed. (ask about the tattoo on her leg. LOL) Had a nice bottle of Cahors (French Malbec) which was probably the most reasonable on the wine list. We had Escargot, Mussels and finished with Foie gras (excellent and pretty good side).

We had excellent service from the time we entered the restaurant. We started off with the cheese board. The selection they had of two cow cheeses and one sheep cheese were delicious. My husband had the croak, madame and he said it was average, with the sandwich tasting a little dry. I had the French onion soup. I have to state my bias upfront - my favorite French chef in the world is chef Ludo and I have gone to several of his restaurants. I rate every French onion soup to his. The way the restaurant prepares the soup is they put the soup and cheese in the bowl and then drown it in some type of liquor like a cognac or brandy. Then they light the top of the soup on fire, which is supposed to present the melted cheese while at the same time burning off the alcohol. The soup I got tasted so much of alcohol. I could not eat it. And it was a little bit skimpy on the cheese.

The cozy, café-style atmosphere makes it perfect for a relaxed brunch or a casual lunch with friends. It's charming without feeling pretentious -- just simple, welcoming, and full of great smells coming from the kitchen. The crêpes are the real star. Whether you go sweet or savory, they're thin, perfectly cooked, and generously filled. The savory buckwheat galettes are hearty and flavorful, while the sweet crêpes hit that perfect balance of light and indulgent. Pair one with a good coffee and you've got an easy, satisfying meal. If you're in Knoxville and want something a little different from the usual brunch spots, The French Market is absolutely worth a visit. It's a local gem that keeps you coming back.

We…read more(party of four) stopped in for lunch on a Friday and had the mushrooms stuffed with artichoke and spinach, meatballs (with spicy ginger sauce), pulled pork nachos, polenta cake, and a short rib sugo with bucatini. Cocktails were well done and the wine pairings recommended astute. Nothing to complain about except some of the items were cold - there was one person serving the entire bar and restaurant and obviously had some timing issues. Also some attitude: after delivering cocktails to my wife and me he forgot her mom's - after I reminded him he said "oh I know" and then proceeded to serve four other patrons' order at the bar and then another two top's before even starting hers. It finally arrived after the cold mushrooms were delivered. I'm chalking this up to a short staffed situation and a specific individual, so if you live nearby or are traveling through looking for a nice spot for dinner or lunch I would definitely recommend. The environment is also very pleasant with a nice bar and dining room of high top tables.

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.

We had draft Sapporo. Man, Japanese beer is easy to take! Fried eggplant and tofu appetizer was delicious; love that sauce! Curry, chilled noodles and "salaw....." which was described as Cambodian sweet and sour soup, very delicious with a large catfish piece in it as well. The waitress told us that the menu changes seasonally and we were there the first week of this season, so some of the dishes were new. Will love going back to try other dishes in other seasons.

Here we go. Multi-trip vet here…read more Inside is tight but nice and gives you a semi-casual / semi-fancy vibe in the room. The live music that is there when we have to listen is a really nice touch. Parking is limited right around the building itself, but there is plenty behind it - just keep driving a few more feet, and you'll see it. The service has been generally great, but our last trip was a bit of a miss - I suppose the difference between brunch/lunch and dinner service. I believe part of the reason was that our 2.5 YO kiddo was ruining the vibe for couples (and the staff as well). If you don't want kids there, then say so. And even if you didn't say it with your words, your actions did. Part of this showed up when we were trying to get a high chair for what felt like 5 minutes - I could see i,t and they went to seat others and had us wait...which created squirming and an unhappy kiddo. After this point, all of the ordering we tried to do in this same sitting was met with a mostly poor attitude and delays from not coming over. The food was delayed and was cold. Again, not going to fight for it and have to wait longer with a little with us. We've not been back since this, and I'm unsure we will try again with a kid. Now that this is out of the way, the dinner experience is night and day different - great service, food, and drinks with little to no issues. So, TL;DR - dinner experience 5/5, lunch/brunch experience 3/5, taking the average of 4 for a 4/5.

It was about 3:00 and the restaurant was on a 45 minute wait. We decided to sit at the bar and have an appetizer while we waited for our table. They were unusually busy because of college graduations. We had a shrimp appetizer which was recommended by the bartender. It was delicious! It had the right amount of spice for us. Our table was ready right as we finished our appetizer. The hostess was very polite and asked us if we were celebrating anything special.. We were promptly greeted by our server Elisabeth who was wonderful. She told us the specials and inquired if it was our first visit. We ordered the espresso rubbed ribeye w/ a baked potato & Caesar salad. We decided to share a steak and ordered an extra wedge salad. Everything was delicious. The steak was a perfect medium. The butter that is served with the bread is heavenly. I was thrilled with my Caesar salad that had anchovies on top. My wedge salad was amazing. This was one of the best steaks we have ever had. We would highly recommend the restaurant for lunch or dinner. 5 ask for Elisabeth if you want a wonderful dining experience!

I chose the Mix & Match entree for $16.69 -- a multi-cheese grilled cheese with a house salad. While the sandwich was the cheesiest and so good, the salad was a bit disappointing with lettuces, a few cold cherry tomatoes (a couple whole and a couple cut in half), a few cucumber slices and croutons. No cheese, no onions, no nuts. It did come with ranch dressing. My Arnold Palmer, while tasty, cost $4.29 -- a bit pricey for a mix of lemonade and iced tea. My friend enjoyed a tuna melt that looked delicious and tasted so (she said) that came with a ramekin of soup and French fries. The soup and fries were okay. The restaurant is decorated pleasantly, and has a full bar to the right as you walk in. Overall, I think the prices are a smidgen higher than a few of the comparable eateries in Turkey Creek, although prices almost everywhere have increased.
