Had looked forward to returning to Sewanee/Monteagle for a couple years, and one of the first…read morethings I did planning the trip was give a call to High Point for a reservation. Unfortunately it was not the same caliber as our initial visit. Wife liked her dirty martini ok. My sazerac was too sweet and a bit hard to get through. The by the glass wine was a small and not particularly interesting selection. Fried lobster appetizer really had a much too heavy coating that overwhelmed the delicate lobster flavor. Still hard to pass on a fried lobster app though. The steaks didn't have that great grill flavor we remembered. My thin cut ribeye was overcooked as well. Though my side of fries were fabulous and the clear highlight of the evening. helpful hint - ask for no truffle oil; nasty stuff, I still can't understand why if shows up on so many menus. The worst part of the evening, and probably the thing that most made us think no on another return visit, was the party upstairs. It involved a lot of very young, very loud, screaming children. I have no doubt that it was a family gathering, but it struck any pleasure from dining in a cool historical space. Gave my wife a headache, and made us bolt to the safe quiet of our car as quickly as possible after the main course was finished.

Absolutely charming! If you're looking for an upscale celebratory dinner this is it. Cabin like…read morehomey feel with excellent service and food. We started w Nola shrimp - Cajun flavor was great, buttery, goodness. They brought out complimentary bread and shared the specials of the night with us. The roll and butter were warm and delicious. I ordered the halibut entree special - comes w soup or salad and sides. A lot of food and everything was cooked perfectly. The risotto was a little under but the flavor was exceptional. My husband ordered the ribeye, cooked perfectly to his liking and the garlic butter gives it so much flavor, also comes with soup/salad and side. You really get attentive staff, basically a 4 course meal, and a really special evening. We enjoyed ourselves!!

The burgers ('Miss Dessie', their bacon cheese burger) were fine, nothing memorable. They're generous with the sides of fries. The regular fries are thick and wavy, and could have used more crunch. Wife liked the sweet potato waffle fries, so much that he finished them off. Got a vanilla shake, which appeared to be a real ice cream based shake, and was really good. Unfortunately, they didn't have any lids, so it was served in a flimsy plastic lidless cup. Not so great to travel. Note that there does not appear to be any sign for the grill, it's just a counter in the golf shop. So pay attention to your GPS, and be forewarned that the driveway is one way, with the entrance being the first turn off of Greens View Road.

They had a nice fireplace going on outside due to chilly weather. Inside was a super cozy southern vibe kind of a place. There were a lot of music memorabilia on the walls. The live music was really good. Randy Finchum kicked off the music and played original and sometimes hilarious songs. He made sure to crack a lot of jokes and stories between the songs. For food we tried fried pickles, fried okra, fried brussels sprouts, and sausage with onions and peppers. Yep...no sight of greens but man was everything delicious. Also, they have cheap beers available but only in bottles. If you're in the mood for some good southern food with a cozy funky vibe then checkout Smoke House.

Common John always impresses me. In a small town, this is not just a brewery, but a restaurant and…read morea community hangout. I stop everytime I head down south from Nashville, usually working in the side room for half the day so I can avoid rush hour in Nashville. From a beer standpoint, this is one of the top breweries in Tennessee. They are well known nationally, as well. The building is a warehouse looking structure on the outside, but they have nicely decorated the tap room. Ample seating both inside and out and they have bands on some weekends. I have tried the flatbreads, a couple of sandwiches, and the Dinosaur wings (only kidding, but they are the largest chicken wings they can buy, so ample sized). I prefer the wings most of the time - except their rendition of Nashville Hot - but this time opted for a meatball sandwich. If you are trying to be an Italian food afficianado, this might not be in, but the sauce works well with these meatballs and there is ample cheese. As one normally focusing on Keto, adding a fork meant I could eat the kibbles and bits and leave the bun. Two thumbs up. As for the beer, they have some of the best IPAs and I finally tried the porter this go around. Many of their beers are rated above 4.0 on untappd and it is not just a local bump kind of thing. The brewery, as a whole, is 3.92 and also well deserved. To my normal "Will I be back" question, I think the answer is already clear. I do return almost every time I pass by.
