    Six of us went to their Sunday brunch. Dan and I ordered from their regular menus and everyone else ordered brunch. Everyone was happy. My grandson got an unusual dish, which was a cinnamon role made into a waffle. He loved it. Dan and I got BLTs with goat cheese, fried green tomatoes, and arugula added to the bacon and tomato on sourdough bread. It was delicious. I got brussel sprouts and Dan got French fries. His fries were better. I thought the Brussels were too salty but that's personal taste. I like less salt than most people. The atmosphere was quite nice. The decor is casual. It's located near the UT campus. The service was excellent. I am disappointed that no one got our server's name so we could mention the wonderful job he did.

    Very popular place!! The food is SO good. My 3 friends and I came here on a Friday night probably around 7pm and ended up having to wait an hour 10 minutes. The wait time makes sense with how many people were in there and the sorority event taking up the upstairs seating. We were able to get seats at the bar to have a drink/s while we waited which was perfectly great (their blackberry or blueberry mule I can't remember which is literally the best drink I've ever had). With this being said, I would HIGHLY recommend making a reservation, especially if you are coming on a weekend. Other than the wait time, this meal was great, such a fun spot to spend time with friends!

    Herbed chicken was gluten free and very delicious! Sweet potato fries are a must always.

    Looking for a quick Sunday brunch near the UT campus so we can give our stressed out granddaughter a break from prepping for finals. Promptly seated and waited on. I had the BLGT sandwich which is a different take on the BLT. It has goat cheese and a fried green tomato it was tasty. Son in law got the falafel burger and pronounced it good. Elsewhere at the table were breakfast tacos and waffles. Good campus corner vibe top heavy with Vols.

    the food was great. The Rooftop on a Wednesday is also very nice.Drinks were good so happy they have Happy dad! The bartenders were great and friendly as well

    Within walking distance from hospital so prior reviews led me down this way. Fried green tomatoes were on point with a crisp fry while leaving tomatoes tender. Party of 5 with multiple entree and salad choices. Found the jerk chicken a little dry but flavor and toppings compensated. Burger was cooked perfectly to order and sweet potato waffle fries were well seasoned and fried nice. Salads were a bit small for price as an entree but did include quality ingredients. Waiter was attentive and conversational without over injecting himself into our table conversation. Oddly enough maybe the best bites came from Chicken tender taco and the Brussels sprouts my daughter got as a side.

    If you're looking for a thick juicy 10 oz burger, this is the place! The service was welcoming and steady in this great "feel good" bar/restaurant. I will return! This was the best burger I've had in months.

    BlackBerry mule!

    Best food and drinks in Knoxville for the price! Everything is such amazing quality- they always have such fresh ingredients and perfect execution of menu items every time we go. Definitely one of our favorite spots. The drinks are also delicious.

    Salmon BLT and sweet potato fries for brunch - YUM! The sauce that came with the fries was great too Good service as well

    Grilled Romaine Ceasar (add chicken and avacado)

    So good! I got the chips and queso as an appetizer. SOOO good. And I got the Grilled Romain Caesar and added chicken and avocado. It was really good too! Waitress was really friendly also!

    Did a to go order and didn't have time to take pics since we had alot of food (grabbed food for 6…read moreppl total) and people started digging in at various times. Got their bacon jam burger, their daddy Mac and cheese burger, boneless BBQ wings, potato skins, a buffalo chicken wrap and some regular Mac and cheese orders. First things first, my bacon jam burger was sloppy and awesome. The aioli was a bit strong, but it tasted well. I didn't know how the Swiss being added would change the flavor, but it paired well with the heavy patty that was handmade. I think any of their burgers would be great honestly just based on how the patty was seasoned and the cook was perfect. Side of fries weren't bad...were a bit overcooked, but they tasted well. Other takeaways...... The boneless wings were good...not overcooked. The sauce paired well with their ranch, which by the way, tasted decent. Did have some tartness to it, but it tasted good. Potato skins were crispy and full of flavor. I forgot we did order some of their version of mozzarella sticks and they were crispy and quite tasty as well. According to my brother in law, the Mac daddy burger was very good...it looked quite impressive I'd admit, but he raved about the taste as well. The only underwhelming item was the buffalo chicken wrap. Was told the wrap itself wasn't warm and the flavor of the chicken with the buffalo sauce wasn't ideal. FYI we stayed less than 10 minutes away from the restaurant, so everything outside of the wrap was fresh and was prepped well. Will keep them in our rotation whenever we visit the area. Probably the best burger I've had in awhile.

I had a couple of beers, paid my bill, I went back to my hotel to get some work done, then came back for dinner. Monday night's special is any po'boy and they throw in a cold beer for free! I can't pass that up... I got the roast beef drippings po'boy with horseradish mayo and a side cup of pimento cheese grits; everything was excellent, but the sandwich was really messy. Still tasted really good, though. Three beers, a great sammich (although I'll probably get the oyster or catfish option next time), and a side of creamy grits for $40 total between two visits (that includes tips). I will definitely be back to this place next time I'm in Chattanooga. It looks like there are great specials each night Monday through Friday; I just happened to be here on Monday. Service was very prompt and able to offer some insight on the po'boys, which was helpful. *NOTE* the walk is through apartments and townhouses so pretty safe but no sidewalk for part of it.

It might be maybe 20%-23% but not 25%. They should just say on their menu they round down but it's not the case, I'd check your receipts the next time you go just Incase based off the principal. Small percent but honestly feels mischievous.

We visited during a snowy day in Chattanooga, which normally would have meant sitting on the patio. The patio is heated and dog-friendly, but with the weather being particularly unpleasant, the staff graciously allowed me to join my humans indoors as long as I stayed in my carrier. From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly welcoming. Several servers stopped by to say hello, compliment me on my excellent restaurant manners, and generally make me feel like an honored guest. The food was excellent, and my humans enjoyed their meal while I was treated to a side of chicken that disappeared surprisingly fast. The service was attentive, friendly, and genuinely warm throughout our visit. The restaurant itself has a comfortable atmosphere with plenty of character. One of my favorite features was the giant cow mural, which provided excellent entertainment while I waited for my chicken to arrive. I spent several minutes making sure none of the cows planned to leave the wall. What stood out most was how accommodating the staff was. They didn't just tolerate a dog--they made us feel welcome. Dogba's verdict: Great food, wonderful service, heated patio seating, emergency snow-day hospitality, and cows that thankfully stayed inside the paint.

Each oyster has a beautiful deep shell filled with clean, briny liquor that captures the true taste of the ocean.

There was a server change at one point, and the new server was not careful when delivering the food and spilled the gumbo upon arrival. Considering the price and value, this place is definitely a one and done.
