It was really nice and clean, classy and beautiful views. The food was outstanding and we really enjoyed the egg salad and chicken salad plus a couple of turkey sandwiches. The desserts - strawberry cake and chocolate peanut butter cup cake were outstanding. The establishment offers lists of things to purchase and take home/to the hotel for heating up or eating at home too. This is a cool place that was very enjoyable and I highly recommend it (despite the 86 or so health score on the last inspection).

We subbed mashed potatoes for cut fries and broccoli and this was the way to go! The broccoli was so delicious, I love the char taste + Parmesan. We had two glasses of wine and finished off the meal with their chocolate gelato. I'll be raving about this meal to anyone who chooses to visit Chattanooga. Very great service, indoor and outdoor seating, and no wait (waitlist available if there is).

My husband and I were in Chattanooga for the weekend and decided to try River Street Deli based on…read morethe great Yelp reviews, and I'm so glad we did. The deli is tucked away in a cute little neighborhood center. When you walk in, it's fairly dark and the dining area is very simple, no frills, no nonsense. Which was fine! But we didn't come for the decor, we came for the sandwiches, and they absolutely delivered. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and high quality. I ordered the tuna salad on wheat with a side of bow tie pasta salad, and my husband got the club. Every bite was delicious, honestly, dare I say perfect. It was exactly what I was craving. The cute older gent at the counter said we gotta try the prosciutto and mozzarella with fig and gave us more reasons to come back! Looking forward to our next visit.

The vibe is relaxed and social, great patio energy, easy place to hang out with friends, and it feels lively without being overwhelming. The food was solid. Tasty, well prepared, good portions, but nothing that blew me away or felt dramatically different from other brunch spots I've tried. That said, the pricing felt fair. I had the breakfast sandwich and my wife had the Mexican Omelette. The Bloody Mary was actually really good, balanced and flavorful. I was a little surprised they didn't have any stuffed olives (my go-to garnish), and the server wasn't familiar with them, which caught me off guard. Not a big deal, just unexpected. The only real hiccup was at the end. Our ticket got mixed up and I tried having the server correct it. He said he would at the computer, he took our cards and I get a receipt where my card was charged on another ticket. So I ended up paying for someone else's food. It wasn't intentional and these things happen, but it was a frustrating way to wrap up the meal. Overall, I'd come back. Good atmosphere, fair prices, solid food. It's not a "must plan your whole weekend around it" spot for me, but it's a dependable option if you're in the area.

Order at the counter and find a table to dine at. All the tables are outside. Great views everywhere you look. Purchased Catfish tacos to share with my fabulous bride. It was pricey, but it was quite tasty. Actually, everything on the menu was pricey. Guess it is to be expected at a touristy place with awesome views. Make sure you clean up after yourselves. Don't want any trash flying away. Rock City Gardens and Lookout Mountain is too lovely a place to allow trash to ruin its beauty.

The views you get to enjoy from your dining table are hard to match unless you are at a ski resort or other mountaintop establishment. Rock City is on Lookout Mountain so as far as I know this might be the only place in the world where you can look out over 7 states as you eat and drink so that is worthy of having a beer and some food at this establishment at least once in your life.

I was hesitant when we arrived, seeing a line out the door and around the corner. However that line moved so fasts Nied did amazing getting people in and out. They had a huge selection of merch that was themed perfect to their mission and goals. The "We're all bread inside" design was probably my favorite. For meals, I got the Niedlov's Breakfast and my friend got the Ham and Gruyère Skillet. I loved what I got, but when I go again I think I will try a skillet because they all smelled amazing! I also got a Gruyère Bacon Chive Scone and a Orange Pan Suisse to take on the road. Both were outstanding. For my drink, I got one of their Blueberry Basil Matcha. I was a little nervous about the basil, but I can genuinely say it was my favorite drink of my entire trip. Lastly I want to say a special thank you to the staff. We thought we weren't going to be able to find a table, but when we found one at the last second, they actually offered to switch my meal to a skillet since they can't do those to go. Absolutely a five star experience and I am already anticipating my next visit.

That was so good, I went back the second day and ate in. That day I tried their breakfast plate, and that was excellent. High praise for the bacon, which comes from the butcher shop next door. The fried potatoes were also great! I opted for their sourdough toast, and enjoyed it so much I got a loaf to take home when I left. Their coffee drinks are very good - I enjoyed my latte both days. Service was very prompt - you order at the counter and they will bring food to your table. I was there mid-morning on a Friday, and it was packed! It's a really nice vibe, with an outdoor patio and the indoor seating area. After eating here, I can understand why they were nominated for a James Beard award. If you are ever in Chattanooga, this is worth the effort! 5/5, would absolutely go back!

To be frank, we did not start off our morning with plans to dine at Kenny's. We were headed to a…read morecompetitor on Chestnut but didn't know they only operated M-F! We had heard of Kenny's from our neighbor but hadn't taken the time to try. What a happy accident! It wasn't busy, due to the weather so we found a seat right away. We were greeted almost immediately and had coffee within minutes, which is crucial! ;-) our waiter was super friendly and was very helpful with comments and suggestions when we told him it was our first time. I ordered the croque madame and my wife ordered the EC Sammy with egg whites, bacon, and cheese on a biscuit. We split them. Both were excellent but I think the next time we'd just split the croque madame! It is a very big sandwich! So the food was great overall but as I alluded in the beginning the service was what makes this a 5-star rating! We will go again.

The servers were very helpful, friendly and very attentive. It took us 20 minutes after we ordered all four of us to get out food. After getting our food, the only conversation we, 4, had was, How good and fresh and flavorful our sandwiches were. Tell your friends highly recommend

I haven't been here in a couple years, I think the last time I've been was like 6 years ago. It's…read morebeen a long while and I loved it back then. I also know from friends that it hasn't changed and it's been just as good. I don't come through this area often, but my friends wanted to meet up and have dinner here. Also the ambiance is so cozy and home-y! It felt like something out of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, some kind of fantasy tale. They were quick to seat us, because we were a group of 5 we had the bigger booth upstairs in the back corner. Though we were seated quickly and our group trickled in after a few minutes, it took a long time for us to put our orders in. I feel like part of it is the booth placement in the corner. We spent a couple minutes trying to look at a server for eye contact haha. I ordered the Veggie Burger, which I loved as a college student years ago, and a cup of the Butternut Squash Soup. Everything was absolutely delicious. The Veggie Burger was so tasty, it came with a side of chips and a pickle slice. The burger was hearty, flavorful, and had veggies like sprouts and avocado that tasted very fresh. For me, it was a hit back then and it still is a hit now. And I wasn't planning on getting the soup, but I saw on the menu that if it was the soup of the day then the Salmon Chowder would be priced differently. And Salmon Chowder is probably my favorite soup of all time. However when we asked, the soup was Butternut Squash which was a good one too. We got a round of 4 Butternut Squash soups for the table lol. I just got the cup and I loved it. And the bread too! I wish I had another slice because I finished that in a couple bites. Anyways the soup was so delightful, it was so cozy and great. I loved the added nuts sprinkled on top, it gave a nice texture with the soup. I feel like with Butternut Squash, people have their preferences about savory and sweet soups and sometimes Butternut Squash tends to be more sweet. But I feel like Yellow Deli nailed the balance between the two. Also I had a bite of my friend's waffle ... and I have to say that was definitely a Top 5 Waffle I've ever had in my life. It was just one bite but it was extraordinary. I'm not trying to exaggerate, it was just that good. They have great quality food here and nice service. I had to dock off a star because we were waiting for a good 25-30 minutes just to order when we were ready. Other than that, we had a wonderful time.
