We went for our anniversary. We showed up at open, as in one other table sat before us, rest of the restaurant empty. We told them it was our anniversary and we were sat literally next to the other person who was waiting on 6 others. So an empty restaurant at the time and on my anniversary dinner you put us next to a large group. So I did take a star off for that. The food was mostly great. The fried okra chips were crispy and light maybe could of used some salt but good. The whipped feta with pita was very good. The French onion tartine is a big thick slice of bread with French onions on top with a slice of guyrer on top sitting in a really tasty broth, the bread was really chewy needs a minute in the broth, but really tasty. Ribeye was slightly overcooked not a big deal but for the price you'd expect nearly perfect. The red curry chicken was too hot for my husband but I loved the sauce. It was quite messy though. Ending with cheesecake with blueberry compote was very tasty and a good decision. Overall we will definitely be back to try more food. If the food is as good and the service good next time I will leave 5 stars. I just couldn't hear my husband in a nearly empty restaurant, at the time, on our anniversary for being right against, like the back of my chair touching theirs, this group.

I've driven pass this place so many times when they were closed but never really gave it any real thought. We had a buddy come visit us on their way through Chattanooga so I was looking some new places up and this place popped up. I figured we would check it out and to my surprise, I hadn't realized what i was missing out on until we finally went there. Ryan our server was fantastic, knowledgeable and so friendly. He tolerated our nonsense and tomfoolery very well. Everything he suggested was amazing and truly.. I can not wait to go back there again.

Our table of 4 drove in from Knoxville and Nashville straight to the warm hospitality of the hostess to our server Kyle, the cuisine, ambience, and experience was awesome! Kyle set the bar and took detailed care of us! In the restaurant the lighting was intimate and we could really fall into are conversation at our table, such a plus. The fried leeks and okra are a must as a starter… please do not forget the deviled eggs they are heavenly. The drinks were perfect- old fashioned, expresso martini to the lemon drop- everything was made perfect! Kyle thank for taking great care of us and we will ask for you when we come back.
