This was around my 3rd trip here - solid 4/5 experience. The outside is awesome, and the inside is very clean. The staff has been generally friendly and helpful each time I've been there without any issues. The food has been a little hit or miss, with some items coming out not fully hot or the meat slightly overdone to what was requested. Not a big deal - I work nearby so I hope to continue to come here and enjoy the experience! My favorites so far are the chicken BLT and the tuna dish they have, both delicious! SYOY! Come try it sometime if you are off of northshore and need a lunch spot! read more

I'm going to review the NorthShore store. I think this is the third and final time that my husband and I walked out of this place. We thought we would give it another try since we had a gift card that someone gave us. No one was at the front to greet us. Finally they sat us and left. No one came by to take our drink order. It's funny because there were about five people gathered outside of the kitchen, just talking to each other and not worried about their customers. Not sure how much longer this place is going to be in business. There were only two other people seated while we were there. The manager needs to do something about this. read more

Food was horrible! Service was great. I ordered fish and chips and it was inedible, no taste whatsoever. Drinks were weak. The establishment was clean but the food tasted like a tv dinner. read more

After three nights camping in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, I took a quick day trip to Knoxville and stopped in at Corner 16--and I wasn't disappointed! I had the salmon salad, which was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I needed to refuel after several long hikes. The outdoor patio was perfect with a refreshing breeze and ideal weather, while the inside décor stood out with quirky, one-of-a-kind decorations. The highlight of my visit was my engagement with Jeannie, a manager filling in for the day. She went above and beyond--giving me a tour of the restaurant, making sure my food and service were excellent, and even sharing a fun detail about the décor. She explained that kids sometimes leave toys behind, and the owner places them on shelves--dinosaurs, tractors, and other little "Easter eggs" for guests to discover. Such a creative touch that made the atmosphere even more memorable. I've also visited some of their other concepts, like Chesapeake's, and the consistency in quality and hospitality is impressive. Whether you're a local or just passing through Knoxville, Corner 16 is a must-visit! read more

Even though we live closeby for almost a year we'd never been to Corner 16. We decided to go there for dinner last night and we were blown away with the quality of our food and the service was great! Our server was Craig and he was very knowledgeable and helpful (also patient) when we asked about some choices on their menu. The general manager Ted came by and introduced himself and inquired about our meal. Ted and Craig made us feel welcomed and wanted to make certain we had a positive dining experience. We did and we will be back often! Thanks guys! PS The chicken and dumplings and the tomato pie was super good.! read more

We visited Corner 16 at Kroger Park Drive. I hate to say it, but it was a very disappointing experience. The only good thing I can say is that the servers were extremely nice and friendly and actually care about their customers. The food, however, is a different story. The "steakhouse potatoes", which we thought would be wedges or mashed ranch style potatoes, were actually like a Kroger brand box Julienne potato mix. They tasted straight from the box, only really watered down. :( The dressing was a generic stove stop stuffing. It had no flavor at all and you could clearly tell that it was a cheap boxed dressing. I honestly could have made better boxed dressing at home. Just not a great visit, especially when you are spending over $50 on a meal. :( Sad to say, we won't be back again. read more

Corner 16 is off my list of restaurants that I recommend. Had some people in town for the game Saturday and took them for dinner after the game. They had never been to a Corner 16 restaurant. I told the waiter when we sat down that I wanted the check for the whole table. The waiter allowed my guest to pay at the register behind my back. Dear Copper Cellar family of restaurants, learn to know your customer and you should have listened to the customer clad in orange and white and not the one wearing crimson. I'm guessing the tab for dinner was about $200 for the table. Good luck getting that again next year, because Alabama won't be in town. In the mean time, you pissed off a loyal customer who has always recommended the Copper Cellar family of restaurants. It isn't a lot of money to you. I probably only spend about $5,000 a year with your chain, but I am done. I will still take lunch at Chesapeake's West because I know the bartender, Suzy Cole, will follow my requests and treat me well when I am there. Meanwhile, Corner 16, which is only a mile from my house, you will lose out the most. I hope the corporate office gives you some training sessions on identifying your client base. VOL FAN FOR LIFE, former Copper Cellar customer. read more

I had the brisket tacos and street corn. The street corn had no chili powder - it was not good. It had absolutely no flavor. The brisket tacos were advertised as having a "poblano" sauce - it had no poblanos in it - it was straight grease. It was disgusting. I've had better tacos from the frozen section of a gas station. The brisket had zero fat and was flavorless. No salt, no spice, disgusting. Will not be going back. read more

Corner 16 has amazing vibes, especially at sunset! The brisket is hands-down the best--so flavorful and perfectly cooked, we got our food within 10 minutes service was outstanding. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

We love eating at Corner 16. The food is always delicious, if something isn't just right - they'll make it right. We had the BEST service with Bella yesterday. She was thoughtful, engaging, professional, with great customer service skills. It was sad when we learned that Corner was no longer offering the tater tots. Are you kidding? Their tater tots were the best in Knoxville. Maybe with prayer, they will bring them back. read more

Corner 16 is a gem! This is my third time going but my first review. The food, service, and ambiance of this restaurant is great. They also have a beautiful indoor/outdoor space perfect for the summer time and heated and cozy during the winter. We will be back soon for more good eats. read more

Food was good but overpriced, service was terrible. Manager was aware of the order being wrong and did nothing to fix the issue.

Went there for the first time yesterday and was really happy with the food. Waitor realized we would be there for a bit to chat/catch up and allowed us to leisurely order. I got jalapeño poppers (kind of greasy but still good - highly recommend) and 7oz sirloin and onion rings (best sirloin I've had in awhile). The steak was very tender, great flavor, and nicely marinated. Didn't require A1 sauce which was great. I wish they would have gave appetizer plates for sharing appetizers. That would have been helpful for the jalapeño poppers since they were on a hot plate and greasy/sizzling. We got extra napkins instead. Would definitely go back! read more

Stopped here on our drive back home and had a wonderful lunch. Our waitress, Sami, was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the Seared Ahi Salad. The tuna was delightfully spiced and seared. The salad was very fresh. My wife ordered the meatloaf with blue cheese slaw. The slaw was creative and just amazing. This is definitely becoming a go to place for us. read more

I have been a lover of onion rings for the past 50 plus years, but I've never found onion rings quite like these in both substance and taste. Corner I6 onion rings are indeed, hands down, positively, absolutely, unequivocally, unquestionably, unreservedly the best I have ever tasted!!!! These are not your run-of-the-mill oily or greasy kind. They are not the kind where you take the first bite and the entire onion slips out of the ring, leaving you with nothing more than a breaded ring in your hand. They are delicately breaded in a wonderful battered mixture of spices that is guaranteed to tantalize even the blandest palate. I could go on and on in my description, but you get the picture. To complement my onion rings I ordered the Wedge Salad which also belongs in a premier category all its own. The serving size is at least a third of a head of lettuce with outrageously tasty bleu cheese dressing and bleu cheese crumbles topped with delicious bacon pieces. Micaela was our server who was pleasant and attentive throughout our meal. She is a positive asset to this restaurant. read more

I met a friend here recently for dinner. I really like this place! We chose to sit in the bar area and ordered dinner and some drinks. It has a great atmosphere - relaxed and friendly with plenty of outdoor space for kids as well. It really feels like a neighborhood hangout. For us, it was a great place to catch up on "life" and we also ran into some other friends we hadn't seen in quite some time. I had the grilled chicken sandwich, and my friend had a cheeseburger. Everything was so tasty, and our server was conscientious as well. read more

We went there for a early dinner. We got there around 4:15pm on a Friday evening. There were maybe 4 other tables being served. It took forever to get a waiter. When we did, he wasn't prepared to take our order. The food was good but the service really needs work. What was a early dinner turned into a late night. read more

First visit to this location. We were seated right away outside since it was a beautiful night. Service was quick to see us and took drink order then on to dinner. I decided to try the turkey and dressing with a side of cream corn. The dinner was great and loved the cream corn. The outside area is unique with a large pavilion area in the middle with roof and garage type doors that can be closed if it rains or cold. Three sides are extra tables and play areas for adults and kids. Corn-hole boards set up in two of the areas. Also have a couple of fire pits outside. Inside is very nice. Great place to bring friends or family when in the area. Also good if you have younger kids cause you can turn them loose outside in their area. We will be regulars here. read more

Went with a big group for a friend's birthday party. We got there and everyone else was already seated. The hostesses had no idea if our party was there and were like "just look around". We found everyone outside. Ordered our beverages after about 15 minutes and ordered some appetizers shortly after. The rest of the group had ordered appetizers prior to us getting there and those still took a good while. They were delicious (the fried green tomatoes were good, stuffed jalapeños, cheese and sausage appetizer and the loaded tots) and I ordered an avocado awesome burger not realizing it was a veggie burger. It was underwhelming when it arrived. 3 tiny slivers of avocado and giant pieces of onion not even fitting into the bun. I even tried to fix the onion before I took a picture of it and it still looked sad. It would probably have tasted better if it was hot and not mildly warm with congealed pepper Jack cheese on it. The macaroni looked like it was stacked on top of another and flat on the top and pretty cold too. Fortunately my kids were too busy playing outside with the big exercise balls and some other kids that were there so they didn't notice it was squished and cold. (I tried to mix it up a bit so in the picture the flat part on the left is what it all looked like when it arrived at our table.) Overall, the appetizers were good. My dinner was mediocre so I am giving 4 stars (rounded up from 3.5) for the benefit of the doubt since we had a large party. If it was just us and my food took that long and my meal was so mediocre I would give it 3 stars. Even though I don't eat much meat and usually like vegetarian options, I would definitely not order the "awesome burger" again. read more

Came here Sunday after church and man o man, let me tell you what we ordered. Appetizers Stuffed jalapeños Tater tots Brisket with bacon All three were a hit for 7 of us. The portions are great and will definitely fill you up. Main courses Waffles and let me tell you I'm super picky with waffles but these were amazing. They were crispy outside and fluffy when you took a bit. Avocado toast won't order that again. It wasn't bad but not worth the $12.50 The build your own burger and sweet potato fries were excellent. Our server was very kind and paid attention and to our drinks. Water and juice! Anyways I I'll definitely go back to Try different items. read more

All I can remember is the onion rings are thin and not circles; more like strings. They have a light crispy coating. They are delicious!

The rating on this restaurant boggles me. This was clearly a 5-star shindig for me. The steak was perfectly cooked, the fried green tomatoes were crispy (and not greasy) and the potatoes had a wonderful smoky flavor and creamy texture. My wife's sandwich looked awesome as well, it was packed full of high-quality deli meats. They have Smoky Mountain Brewery selections here, and my IPA was great. Our server was friendly, attentive, and the food came out as fast as could be expected for a table of seven. Everyone at my table enjoyed their meal, even my picky 6-year-old. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

I was really excited for some Southern food, but I was a little disappointed here. The restaurant had a little bit of a "chain restaurant" feel. We ordered fried green tomatoes, tomato pie, bacon cheddar grits, wings, and smothered chicken. The entrees were better than the appetizers/side in my opinion. It was my first time trying fried green tomatoes and it was more fried than tomato. We asked our waitress when we first sat down if there were any happy hour deals and she told us not in our seating area. When we asked if there were happy hour deals in the bar area she told us not today. It was a Wednesday..we kind of got the feel she just didn't know/didn't feel like checking. read more

All these reviews..and finally stumbled upon my severe pet peeve. Modern, clean..but no restaurant gets a 5 when seated at a outside table that severely rocks...not even putting a menu down there saved it. Heading out we saw it wasn't the only one. So the TYPE A people may want to check before sitting. Lovely weather, ate under a HUGE patio with fans. Service was cheerful, quick and knowledgeable. BLT...THAT sandwich gets 5 stars! Homemade lemonade for the Arnold Palmer, fried pickle appetizer served hot..yummy! Console games, cool bar and indoor dining. It appeared outside dog friendly, kids had a small playing area..all on turf. Worth a trip back, as long as I check for rocking tables. read more

Website advertises meatloaf family packs. Called to order in advance. Was told by JT (the manager?) that meatloaf is a specialty item and they do not sell it now. Asked if JT could make some meatloaf and he said no, it will take away ground beef from those ordering burgers tomorrow. I reminded him that Food City is across the street and he could get enough to make meatloaf. I was going to pay over $150 for two meatloafs and 2 sides. JT could have made it happen, he just chose not to. He not only lost his sale, but my family will never eat there. Have supported the Copper Cellar family of restaurants for many years so this is extremely disappointing! read more

Absolutely love the atmosphere here! I had the fried pickles as an appetizer and fell in love with them. Most places do the pickles disks. Not Corner 16, they do pickles spears! Yum yum yum. For lunch I ordered the brisket nachos and unfortunately was very underwhelmed. The chips themselves were over salted, the beer cheese was pure liquid, and the brisket was in just giant chunks. I eat nachos almost everywhere I go and these were definitely not worth the money. I wish I had known and I would've gotten something else. If I hadn't had the pickle spears (and they were delicious) then I probably wouldn't come back. I'll give it a second try though. Stay tuned. read more

Corner 16 - Brisket Nachos - Southern Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

I'm obsessed with the kid friendliness of the gated in turf, but the food doesn't do much for me. The onion rings are excellent and the wings are decent. Everything is just so unhealthy, even the salad options, and the Caesar was repellant in odor and flavor. They need to go back to the drawing board with that dressing. Service has always been great and every once in awhile it's worth it to come here to relax while the kids play, but I wish they'd do some extensive work on the menu. read more

Food: 1. Batter on Onion rings so thin it falls off when grabbing and greasy. 2. Brisket Nachos had A LOT of fat chunks everywhere. GROSS. 3. Sweet potato fries, chicken fingers, and burgers were excellent. Service: 1. Server stands near watching the tip get entered. 2. Device to pay with starts tips at 18%. Just an example of restaurant putting the wages for servers (entry-level job) on the customer instead of them paying higher. Knowing servers will watch if you click "other", makes me as a guest feel uncomfortable (big no-no in today's service economy). 3. Drinks/Food came out really fast. Ambiance: 1. Great environment for kids/family. Although, some people bring animals and after experiencing a dog hair fly into my food I purposely avoid places that allow animals. Fortunately, today's crowd didn't have animals with them. 2. Awesome space for kids to run around. Restaurant also provides a few balls, corn hole, turf grass, etc... for convenience. Great space. In summary, gave 3 stars for the tipping and food experience. Otherwise it would have gotten 5 stars. read more

Service was excellent, they have a Sunday Brunch that offers breakfast foods - sausage biscuits, etc. 30 min after opening they didn't have any biscuits cooked! When we asked for jelly for the toast they said they don't have jelly! Very questionable management! read more

This place just can't get it together. I just left from there on a Thursday evening with my 13yo son. We waited over an hour on 2 burgers and that was after waiting for almost 15 minutes just for them to take a drink order. The restaurant was not full at all but they have very limited parking so we had to park in the back and walk around to the front entrance. I can't begin to imagine what it would be like if they were busy. This is not the first time going here and experiencing this type of service. I guess it will be another 6+ months again before I try to give them another shot. It sucks to want to eat at a neighborhood spot and them aways turn out to be a let down! read more

Been here a few times but Yelp only recently added this off-Northshore location so unable to review. This Chase property is in the massively-remodeled Ruby Tues bldg just off Northshore at Pellissippi, around from Kroger. Plenty of parking and seating. Great food ---try the tomato pie!!
