The fried green tomatoes with grits , ginormous homemade biscuit with jam with a tall glass of stout is a good as life gets. Except for the blueberry cheese pie . Oh my, my!

Rebekah Nyenhuis

So amazing! The free biscuit is big and yummy with their honey ! I ordered the Cheese Grit app with Brussels sprouts and sweet potato fries (kids size ) and it was more than enough. I want to go back!

Lily

You're mostly coming here for the biscuits and jam or honey , and that's going to rock your world. What you don't know is the veggie bowl is ridiculously good (and I'm mostly a carnivore).

Gerardo Canavati

They know chicken and they will make you beg for more, great place with a prime downtown location, park in the garages 2 blocks away and have a nice walk to your new favorite chicken place.

Christine Ha

Southern food + cocktails . Blueberry jam , fried chicken with biscuits & gravy , fried green tomatoes pretty good. Can be a long wait but bar & chef 's pass are full service. ???? ???? ???? ????

Rob

I had the smashed cheesy cauliflower and it was amazing. Ask for an extra biscuit too, you can thank me later.

Joseph Bracco

Overall Great Experience. The wait was about 30 minutes which is expected for a Saturday night Downtown. From the hostess to the waitress , great service and to top it all off AMAZING Food. A+

Nikki

Third time was the charm...you really can't go wrong with the Southern Fried Chicken Saltimbocca with Country Ham and Mushroom Marsala . The cheesy smashed cauliflower complimented the flavor.

Ashley Morris

They give you biscuits with the brunch meal, and an incredible jam . You really could get away with getting a small meal and going to town on the free biscuits !

Neal

Came here again for dinner on a Tuesday. $3 house martinis all day were good. Got the meat loaf , mac and cheese , and brussel sprouts . Licked my plate clean so I guess I liked it!

Amy K

I'm not a Bloody Mary person but thoroughly enjoyed it here. Food was excellent, oh and great service!

Vincent Lowe

What's good? Possibly everything! Definitely the skirt steak , and definitely the shrimp and grits . You can trust this kitchen. #knoxville #dining

Unique and tasty food. A really cool vibe and atmosphere. Service was exceptional. A little on the pricey side but all in all a very enjoyable experience .

Lydia Salnikova

Don't be surprised if there's no silverware on your table. Don't be surprised if your toast comes without butter. Don't be surprised if "salsa " in your omelet is just diced raw veggies piled inside.

Sam Romines

You can sit at the cooks window and watch them work. It awesome and they are really nice and totally earn their tips. Yes they have tip jars so be sure notice!

Neal

Had the fried chicken blt sandwich for lunch there. Pretty good but hard to eat as a sandwich , ended up using my knife and fork. The free biscuit was really good.

JL

The most recently updated menu has gotten rid of some of the best items and seems pretty limited now. Very disappointing for one of my favorite restaurants !

Mark

Maybe brunch is a better way to go. The fried green tomatoes were a little too thick and therefore too hard, the grits less than fully flavored.

Manny

Seriously amazing food. Plan ahead since it gets busy, but well worth the wait. Try the honey ! The crab cakes were amazing.

Kelley Best

I ordered fried green tomatoes over goat cheese grits & 1 sweet potato pancake - I have a to-go box w/ 1/2 pancake & biscuit for breakfast tomorrow ????

Bill Powers

Great place to eat. However, I've tried 3 times and eaten here once. 2-3 hour waits on weekends. Reservations only after 8pm. I say don't bother on weekends.

Natalie Merritt

This place has amazing food no matter what it is! My sister and I ordered something we would of never ordered at any other place. The fried chicken biscuits & gravy

Alyssa

Amazing food! The biscuits were large and in charge. If you want good southern comfort food , this is the place.

JenKudu

The meatloaf is insanely good! Fried green tomatoes aren't the best I've ever had, but still delicious. Blueberry pie is ok.

Stephen Perle

Fried green tomatoes and shrimp and grits . Amongst the best I’ve had anywhere in the south.

Jody Nelson

fried green tomatoes and Wan Tons. ..bartenders were great. friendly atmosphere . I'll be back!

Lisa Allen

You'll have to come several times and try everything. The best biscuits .

Jim ???? ????

Listen to Erika, she has the best recommendations & service. Tupelo's food is incredible ..... banana pudding a must try ......

TOB

The jumbo lump crab scramble is delish!! Pair with homemade hot chocolate and you've entered heaven on earth.

The lunch combo is awesome! The Spicy Avacado sandwich is highly recommended!

Their biscuits are to die for! You really can't go wrong with anything here.

Woody Wommack

The free biscuit that come with your meal is worth the stop by itself.

Heather Green

The okra and green beans on the sides menu are total perfection.

Carter Alexander

Moonshine Bloody Mary with jalapeños and a bacon strip . Yumm!!

Ashley Taft

Love the fried green tomatoes , tomato soup , and the Uptown grilled cheese .

Eunice Hernández-Hudson

Food was delicious but I found it very loud . Not the place for a romantic date . If you're looking for large servings & generous drinks , this is a great establishment.

Zachary

Root Beer Molasses Glazed Pork Tenderloin with Green Apple Salsa with Southern Popcorn is unbelievable!!!

By far the best biscuit I've ever had! Add honey and its perfect!

Anne Mayka

It was a busy Sunday, we sat outside, took a long time for a server to come to our table, when we finally got our meals (hamburger was dry and tasteless) I felt we were rushed out of the restaurant .

SaintLoopey

I've always had excellent service, but Kristi was exceptionally helpful tonight.

Nicholo Blahnik

The Venerated Veggie Bowl is outstanding!!

Ben Ward
