Stopped at Aubrey's on our way down to Georgia and it was AMAZING!! I had the cranberry chicken salad with honey vinaigrette. My husband ordered the chicken fried chicken and my friends both ordered the mushroom burger. Everything was delicious! We ended our meal with a piece of praline cheesecake! Yum! It was probably the best cheesecake I ever have had! It was a little pricey, but the service was great and the food came out fast! If I could give more than five stars I would!! I only wish they were closer to home.. read more

Traveling through and our hotel suggested Aubrey's. It did not disappoint. It was super busy but we didn't have to wait long. Everything we had was good. read more

Great consistent food & service. Very popular so plan accordingly! Take out is a great alternative.

Stop. Read this. All I can think of to start with is WOAH, and maybe not for the reason you would think. Appetizer was Pizza Rockefeller. It's your basic crispy tortilla with queso and chicken. A little too expensive for what it is, but it hit the spot! I ordered a glass of chardonnay- awesome. Dinner was the Thunder Road burger. If you've been to Litton's, it's the same thing. But slightly less well executed. Needs more pimento cheese, it was a little dry. Great taste though. Husband had the Ragin' Cajun sandwich and that thing was PHENOMENAL. So here's the part where I say that the 3.5-4 star food became 5 star: DARYL THE SERVER. This guy was at the table every several minutes checking beverage levels, asking if he can do anything, and making AMAZING wine recommendations. This guy knows his Chardonnay! I was astounded by his service. This guy needs to be management. Great dinner, I'll definitely be back. (If Daryl is working!) read more

Solid place to eat and grab a beer. Their beer menu has expanded slightly but there's something for everyone. House made dressings are top notch. Salads are always fresh and delish. Don't leave without trying the Pizza Roc as an app! read more

Just want to sing only the highest of praises for the experience we had at Aubreys. We sat outside and were hit with the storm that passed through right as our food came. We at first thought to wait it out as it was light, but it ended up being pretty heavy watershed for about fifteen minutes. Our waiter was so great and continually checked on us and braved the rain to make sure we were well taken care of. We ended up having to leave afterwards as we were soaked to the bone and dripping. The staff boxed up the food for us and made our tab on the house. We always have such great service here and I just wanted to highlight how grateful we are. Thank you, Aubreys! We will definitely be back. read more

Usually, we have a great experience at Aubreys. Tonight we had a raw burger and cold chicken. We also received a dirty glass that had things all in it. When we informed our server nicely about the glass she said it was the dishwasher and didn't tell anyone or management. I understand servers can have bad night, but Brandi E was very unwelcoming and did not seem like she was interested in our table. Disappointed in our visit tonight. read more

Like many others, I came to Aubrey's as a result of propinquity - it's across the (very lightly traveled) entrance road to the La Quinta motel, where I stayed overnight, and so the distance (approximately 150 yards) is easily walked. Adding to the appeal is that they have an outdoor patio, where dogs are welcome, and this means I don't have to leave my dog in a motel room by himself. My waitress was very solicitous of my dog's needs, immediately bringing him a bowl of water, without me even mentioning the fact that he needed one (he's a bulldog, so he's always hot and thirsty). Very kind of her. I was by myself on the patio for about ten minutes, and then, quite suddenly, every table was filled. And, in TN, restaurants and bars that have outdoor seating areas allow people to smoke in those areas. Everyone at the other tables was making the most of this policy - the air was thick with curls of cigarette smoke. They were all smoking, every one. Not what I had in mind; I didn't intend to eat a dinner seasoned by wreaths of smoke from Marlboro and Kool cigarettes being smoked a few feet away from me. My poor bulldog was also not having a good time. I ordered a basic chicken and pasta dish (with red sauce). Huge serving, and average taste. If you're a fan of Olive Garden, Chili's, Applebee's, TGIF, etc., you will love the unapologetically pedestrian food here. In fact, one of the tables near me was raving about their entrees, loudly exclaiming that "it was just as good as Red Lobster". [shrug] I left the waitress a big tip, simply because she was so sweet and concerned about my dog, and that goes a long way with me in this sour and cynical world we live in. And then we (my dog and I) walked back to the motel, reeking of cigarette smoke. I took a shower, but I could still smell it in his fur later that night. Yeah, that made me feel guilty for exposing him to that. Sorry, buddy. read more

Terrific dinner and service, I've only been here twice, but both times the food and service were very good.

I think I died and went to pot roast heaven! Our server recommended the pot roast and it was seriously amazing. My daughter ate off my plate it was so delicious. The service was really spot on too. When I ordered the sweet potato fries, I didn't know they were sweet instead of savory. I mentioned it to the server and in a flash they were replaced with another side. First time here and we'll definitely be back again if we pass through town. Highly recommend! read more

Really good experience here recently. Had dinner with a friend and opted for a salad with steak. The salad was huge- I couldn't finish it all. The waiter was kind and attentive and the atmosphere was great for conversation. No complaints! read more

It's gotten to the point where I find the food at this particular Aubrey's in Powell to be very inconsistent. We seem to do much better at the Aubrey's in Oak Ridge. We have even driven from our home past the Aubrey's in Powell to eat at the Aubrey's in Oak Ridge. What's an extra 15 minutes or so of driving if you know you're going to be satisfied. Recently my wife and I ate at the Aubrey's in Powell. We each had the Granny Smith steak salad. Loads of lettuce, with not much apple slices and even less walnuts and blue cheese. The steak was actually pretty fresh, cooked well, sufficient portion and tasty in the salad. But then you look around the restaurant at other people eating salads and it looks like every person got their salad made from a different person at a different restaurant. Its truly mind boggling you would think that somebody is supposed to be paying attention to what's coming out of the kitchen and looking for consistency or in this case lack of. I don't know maybe if you know the Mgr or owner they give you a special card that you show which gets you a better prepared dish. I even mentioned something to the very nice waitress and she said, yeah I agree, it really depends on who makes your salad or dish. Go figure.... read more

We as a family have been here several times and have always enjoyed the food. But this time was different. Not only was the food great but our waiter Chilli provided the best service / experience I can remember in recent memory. The best! I will ask to be seated in his area next time for sure!! read more

You simply won't find a better managed staff in Knoxville. I bring out of town clients here regularly because it's doesn't disappoint.... Lunch or dinner. It's a winner always. read more

The bread was stale. The filet mignon was tasteless. The salad was lettuce, a pile of cheese and shoestring potatoes. The "small plate potato chips" were round flat French fries. We wanted crispy potato chips. Disappointed. Plus we had to listen to kitchen manager or manager talking very loudly at the cooks. Not worth it. read more

This place is never a disappointment. Booth and table always clean. We had a waitress that was training and she was very confident and one of the best waitresses that has ever served me. I always enjoy looking at at the weird and funky art on the walls. Great Job! read more

Aubrey's - Powell - Asian Grilled Chicked Salad. - American Near Me - Powell, Tennessee

My husband and I stayed overnight at the Holiday Inn Express in Powell, TN (Knoxville North) and noticed Aubrey's across the street. We asked the hotel desk attendant if she'd recommend it and she gave it a very high recommendation. So, off we went. I'm SO glad we asked and I'm even more glad that we went to Aubrey's for dinner. It was fantastic!! We were there on a Friday evening and it was packed, but, to me, that's a good sign. A busy restaurant tends to be a good restaurant. We were told the wait would be about 25 minutes and that was accurate. We started with the thick cut potato chips for an appetizer. These, honestly, were slightly disappointing because some of them weren't cooked well - they were floppy. But, the ones that were crisped up were delicious! And the buttermilk garlic dipping sauce was divine! For dinner, my husband had the prime cheddar burger which he thoroughly enjoyed. He's a burger guy and this one hit the spot for him. I had the grilled tuna sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. That tuna steak sandwich was AMAZING!! And, my sweet potato fries were fabulous. We both enjoyed our meals tremendously. It's too bad we didn't save room for dessert because the ones we saw come out looked sooooooooo good! But, I can't vouch for them beyond presentation. If we're ever near Aubrey's again, we will definitely make it a point to eat there. We were very impressed! Highly recommended! read more

Always clutch. Never a disappointment. Quality food quality price. To the negative reviews about service: recognize that you're probably getting served by a high school student at their first job. Over the past 15 years I've probably eaten nearly everything on the menu. And it's always solid. Favorites: haystack pasta, lemon lime chicken, rajin' Cajun, peanut catfish. read more

Very fresh quality food without the wait. Don't pass it by because the parking lot is full. The place is huge and they have the service squared away. The rattlesnake pasta was excellent. A great place to take the whole family or just an intimate affair. The menu offers something for everyone. read more

Aubrey's - Powell - Slowly....very slowly, making our way out west. - American Near Me - Powell, Tennessee

Quick stop for dinner as we passed through town. Wanted basic American food so everyone could find something to eat and Aubrey's offered that. Unfortunately food was mediocre at best. My chicken fingers were super dry and stringy. My husband ordered the tomato bisque soup which was literally Campbell's soup from the can. Ewwww. We knew this because they have Campbell's tomato soup cans displayed in the dining room. We thought it was a joke. read more

I'm guessing that this is a nice place for food and beverages. I really don't know because....after entering the bar and sitting in a booth, I waited as waiters and waitresses walked by, stopped to sip their sodas, play with the menus and socialize. If they had asked, I would like to have eaten and had a drink or two. !0 minutes of them walking past me like I wasn't there and I just got up and left. At the front door, as I was leaving, the manager asked if everything was OK. I told him of my experience and he apologized and suggested that I go into the dining room to eat. I respectfully declined. I left unimpressed and am passing this along for your information. read more

Dined there New Years Eve. They were packed and service was still prompt & courteous and the food was absolutely delicious. Hubby ordered end cut of Prime Rib. I started with Shrimp Bisque. Entree was pan seared Sea Scallops over Creamed Corn. Sides of Sautéed Mushrooms, Parmesan Spinach and Mashed Potatoes. Everything was absolutely perfect. Will definitely dine there again and again. read more

Traveling on I-75 and decided to have lunch. Served fairly quickly and the place was clean. Went to order pulled pork for DH and waitress could not tell us if the sauce was sweet. I don't know was the answer. I ordered the burger with pimento cheese and onion straws. We switched sandwiches. The pork was sweet. They had decent sweet potato fries. Large portions, it must have been close to a half pound of pork for $10. All in all a shade better than Applebees. I forgot to mention the burger was cooked correctly a rarity these days even in more expensive restaurants. I would give it another half star. read more

Get the chicken fingers and be happy. Went back a second night and got the lemon lime grilled chicken breast -- cooked perfectly, juicy, tangy, and delicious. This place is a small chain located in Knoxville area. Service can be a little slow but warm and friendly. read more

This is always our go to restaurant to visit when we don't feel like cooking. We always get great service and even better food. You can't go wrong with Aubrey's! read more

The service was very good, the pulled pork nachos were good too. The entres were not so much. The tuna was way overcooked, the grean beans had an odd spice to them and the broccoli was ok. I think I will give this place another shot and hope it was just an off night for the fish cookery. read more

How fortunate that we found a truly good restaurant in Aubrey's Cafe across the street from our motel in Powell. Many times we have asked the front desk staff for a recommendation on where to eat as we have travelled across the country, only to be disappointed by their "kick-back" preferences. Not so with Aubrey's. Not only was the Holiday Inn Express a bargain all the way around (save for a later review) but guiding us to this locally owned restaurant proved to be another winner. I love good fish. But, hard to find if you're not on the coasts. So, a lot of places opt out of that dice game and grudgingly serve some version of Tilapia. And Aubrey's did have Tilapia on the menu; however, I rolled for the Boston Scrod. Yeah, I know, what are the odds? Well, in this instance, very good. The filet was a nice sized potato crusted and perfectly grilled specimen of fish, as respectable as the city where it got its name. Delicious! I won't bore you with all the other details of service, atmosphere, side dishes and silverware. Go. See for yourself. Eat and enjoy. This is a local jewel. I wish we had one in Golden Valley, Minnesota. read more

I love the new place, great layout in the bar area, ample portions, good hot food, great service, and the management is friendly and always greet me when I come in. read more

Great food every time. It never disappoints and everyone we have ever taken there loves it as much as we do. Just great consistent food. One of Knoxville's best family dining experiences. The tomato bisque is the best I've ever eaten! read more

The food and service is awesome! My family and I have not had an issue here once. I recommend the pizza Rockefeller for sure!

The Thunder Road burger was awesome! They have a lot of good beers on tap.

Have had great food and service at Aubrey's several times. Stopped in for dinner tonight and it was good until or food arrived. The soup and two chicken dishes were cold. Very disappointed. They weren't even busy. Will definitely think twice be for going again. read more

Good food! A little pricey, but you get a lot of food for your money! We ordered the buffalo chicken nachos and the chicken strip platter. Both were really good! read more

I hadn't eaten at an Aubrey's in several months but service and food were superb as usual. Great atmosphere. The Atlantic Cod was well-prepared and flaky. The broccoli was steamed perfectly and the portion was appropriate for our lunch. read more

Great every time! Alway great quality, and nice service. Always clean , and fast table service.

Outstanding food and service! Maleia was our server, and she is a bright ray of sunshine and never stops smiling. She made our visit amazing. I had the house salad with sirloin steak, and it was fantastic. Open air seating was terrific. One of our favorite restaurants! read more

Nice casual dining place with a variety of menu options. The portions are huge - I don't think we've ever entirely finished a meal here. Everything that comes out of the kitchen and passes our table looks delish! We've never been disappointed with a meal here. read more
