Excellent experience for this New Yorker. Service was great, food excellent, and wine recommendations from our server hit a home run. I am a rare dessert person but the butterscotch something or other was too notch. 5 stars all around and really made for a special night for our 4some!
Just ate here tonight to celebrate a birthday. The food was cooked very well. We tried a big variety of dishes and I would say everything ranged from above average to excellent. The salmon was phenomenal, the best main of the three that I tried. The tiramisu was good, but the ladyfingers could’ve used a little more rum/coffee—personal preference. Great ambiance. Very nice layout for the dining area. All in all a solid restaurant. I’m glad Knoxville has this in its repertoire.
Looking at the reviews thought this would be an ideal place to meet my family since we were from out of town visiting. Looking at the reviews you couldn’t go wrong , so I thought until I had my experience and it was disappointing especially the food . The steak I ordered was EXTREMELY SALTY even the waitress agreed . I Reordered my steak again and came back a little less salty but still not to my expectations! We will not be returning back and hopefully they can get this issue taken care of since my whole family agreed that the food had WAY TOO MUCH SALT, to the point you really could not taste the food!
