    We went on a Monday. Got seated right away. The piano player was there tonight which was nice. The…read morearomas in there were smoky and delicious. We had turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes with collard greens. Loved the turkey, stuffing and potatoes. The collards were good. Pies were amazing too! Loved the butterscotch and coconut cream pies! Will repeat! Allison was a great waitress.

After someone mentioned Dean's, everyone else nodded so this was the unanimous choice. We got two orders of pot roast. Mine was accompanied by collards and his sides were deviled eggs and mash potatoes. Absolutely no complaints. Food was fantastic. I do love Southern food! Since this was also a bakery, I had to try some of the desserts. At first I didn't know what apple fried pie was. Our server said it was just apple pie that is deep fried. I mean, is there anything bad that comes out of deep frying? The server did ask me if I wanted the pie warmed up and I said no. I suggest you say yes if asked. It really would have been much better warm but it certainly wasn't bad a little chilled. I loved the small bits of chopped apples. The pie was filled with so many applies and sprinkled with sugar. This was definitely a winner. Service: Extremely friendly. Tip: Bring cash or else pay the credit card fee. Parking: Plenty in the small shopping center.

Lots of tables , booths and bar tables. Big TVs in the bar with the games on. The food was amazing. Had grilled salmon tacos and I was there was more. My friend had a pizza and it was great as well. The chips were so good too! I will be coming back to try more of the menu .

    Aubrey's is almost always packed, which makes it seem like a standout spot in our small town. After…read morevisiting a few times, though, I've found it to be... pretty average. They do offer outdoor seating, which is nice, although I'm not sure yet if it's dog-friendly--something I'll have to check out next time. We usually sit at the bar, and one thing I've learned is that you need to be very specific with your drink order if you have preferences. For example, if you order a dirty martini without clarification, be prepared for a glass that tastes almost entirely like olive brine. Asking for "light" on the olive juice is a must. Even a standard vodka martini doesn't automatically come with a lemon twist, which feels like a small but noticeable miss. Service has consistently been solid--friendly and attentive, about what you'd expect. The food, however, has been hit or miss. I tried the FGTs twice, hoping the first experience was just an off night, but they still weren't memorable enough to order again. The steak tips appetizer has been the one standout for us--really flavorful--but if you're planning on ordering a steak entrée, doubling up on steak feels a bit redundant. The salads that come with the meals are reliably good, and the steaks themselves are decent, especially with the loaded baked potato on the side. That said, I ordered a fish dish on one visit that was forgettable enough that I can't even recall exactly what it was--just that I wouldn't order it again. Overall, Aubrey's is perfectly fine, but it hasn't wowed me. At this price point, I think there are better options around town. We might stop back in from time to time if we're in the mood for something different.

    I love the food here, it's one of my favorite fast food places in Oak Ridge. The fried cheese curds…read moreand fries are on point. When first coming here, no complaints. Everything was amazing. However, recently there has been a dip in service. Side note, all of the problems I have experienced have been with the drive thru, so it could be just that. They've been slower than normal and onetime had a hard getting the order right. The biggest instance though was when we were told to pull up and wait. When someone came out, he asked what was our number, but we didn't get one. Trying to figure if it was our order he got very snappy and was very rude about the whole the situation. I can understand new people or busy days but attitude is something that's avoidable. The ladies that I've interacted when first going blew me away on how nice they were, so dealing with this gentleman was shocking. Overall great food, service (lately) is hit or miss.

However the costumer service really needs some help, we were ordering and the cashier just looked at my wife not even asking "what do you want" that would've been better than just looking at her. I get that people have hard times sometimes but if you have a job you must take care of it. Place was clean and with a good environment which is a good thing and again dinning in there doesn't feel like a fast food place.
