Visiting from out of town to see Hamilton; if this is one of the best restaurants that Knoxville has to offer - I'm sorry - they have a long way to go. The Good: the ambiance and environment is wonderful. The upfront service was impeccable. If you have a chance to be seated on the second floor, overlooking the bar area, do that. The Elk Sliders - I could eat an entire plate of these. They were fantastic. The Texas Red (chili). Solid flavors, incredibly well balanced. I wish it would have been served at a hotter temperature (more on this later); but it was still delicious. The fried artichokes on the mac n cheese were easily one of the best things we tasted all night. The Bad: The server was not explicitly clear on what to expect regarding portions. She explained that most of them usually come in portions of 3 - but you can order 1 or 2 instead. Highly convenient if you're only a party of 2.

Great food & Service! We had the Bison Ribeye, which was very good. The Brussels sprouts side were delicious. The churros for dessert were top notch. Everything was delicious!

Sad there were no beer fries as listed online, but our server Ashlynn was very knowledgeable on the menu items and had been with the restaurant for 5 years.

As for cocktails: The Willie and the Jalapeño Cucumber margarita were our faves. We also tried the 1888, Crystal Land and Beez On Thyme. SO much food. We made the mistake of getting too much. Corn, okra, cucumber and tomato salad was excellent and the chili was perfect. We were told 7/10 on the hot scale, but it was not that spicy. Let us not forget the fresh focaccia bread and jalapeño cornbread muffins. By the time the entrees came we were stuffed however, the beef tenderloin was cooked to perfection and could not be wasted. The rabbit enchiladas were v
