We didn't know that there was another one in Kingsport but the one in Johnson City was the one we needed to go to regardless. Staff here was absolutely friendly and was knowledgeable about their food items. The vegan section is absolutely comprehensive and the portion size and as well as the prices are absolutely incredible with fair prices and big portions. This place stays open pretty late as well. Done again was a blast though the interior needs to be remodeled in some way or shape. Restrooms weren't too bad at all either. Be careful of one of the steps because it's a steep step where you might fall. Overall, I was very satisfied with a visit here and I left absolutely full. This place also has great kids deals too.

Seriously, this is the best Jamaican jerk sauce and jerk chicken I've had--no exaggeration. Every…read moretime we visit, I leave with bottles of the sauce and their spice because it's that good. On our most recent trip, we sat outside and had excellent service. The food came out quickly, which was a nice surprise, and everything was on point. I ordered the jerk chicken grilled sandwich with pub fries--both were really good, packed with flavor, and cooked perfectly. The place has a very cool, eclectic vibe with a unique atmosphere, plus a solid beer selection to round it out. Great spot overall--highly recommend.

The outdoor area can be loud due to its close proximity to the busy street. Not really much of a view; just the parking area and passing cars. Plenty of parking in front and to the side. They do have an inside dining area, but the host didn't give us that option. Our waitress was nice but wasn't very knowledgeable about the food; I asked her if the shrimp poboy came on hard or soft bread. She said soft so I ordered that. It was toasted to the point of being rock hard; actually cut my lip on it. Otherwise the poboy was pretty good, just hard to eat. The wife enjoyed her burger, but it wasn't anything special. And neither of us cared much for their side of chips; it's clearly their attempt to be different by not serving the usual French fries. But in our opinions, it's a fail. They were neither a tasty potato chip nor a fry, but something in between, that even ketchup couldn't make tasty. Interesting place to visit once, but I doubt we'll be back.

The vibe, the food, the service - all of it was perfection. Kudos to the chefs, I'm beyond impressed with the Appalachia flair in each dish but also THE FLAVORS and mixing other ethnic cuisine with the local goods. A true farm to table with a flair! DO NOT SKIP the hand pie, I don't care what it contains as it changes daily. Try everything and go hungry! I'm still thinking about that meal and trying to decide if it's crazy to drive all the way back to Johnson City from Nashville just to eat there again soon. Iris, you are a gem and thank you for taking care of us. I will be back!! Also, apologies I took hardly any photos. It was too difficult not to devour the dishes right away.

The service was very friendly and the food was tasty with ample portions. The cost was very reasonable. If I were to be in the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to stop here for breakfast again. After the food and conversation, I continued on my way to Elizabethton for a round of golf.
