    This was easily one of the worst dining experiences I've had. When we arrived, we were told there would be a one and a half hour wait. While that is obviously a long wait, we understood that it was a Friday night and were willing to be patient. Unfortunately, the problems went far beyond the wait time. The TOAST app indicated that we had already been seated, despite the fact that we had never received a text, notification, or any instruction to go to our table or return to the host stand. When we went to check on our status, we watched multiple parties bypass the long wait and get seated and not even check in with the host and be served. Including parties of two who arrived after us and were seated before us. When we were finally seated, there were multiple dirty tables and several completely empty tables throughout the restaurant. So naturally, the question is: Why are customers being told they have to wait an hour and a half when there are clearly tables sitting empty? There were also multiple employees standing around while one guy was absolutely working his butt off. After finally being seated, we waited another 45 MINUTES for one single pizza. And somehow, basic table service was still too much to ask for. We received no silverware, no napkins, no refills, and no basic table service When we finally asked for napkins, we were given a small amount of cocktail napkins instead of the proper table napkins. A long wait on a Friday night? Understandable. A long wait with poor communication, inconsistent seating, empty tables, employees standing around, another 45-minute wait for one pizza? Completely unacceptable. This wasn't simply a restaurant being busy. This was poor management, poor communication, and poor customer service. We were patient and understanding throughout the entire experience, and unfortunately, that courtesy was not returned. I highly do not recommend this place based on our experience.

    The food was top notch as they prepared the dishes very well, with my crazy specs, and the steak (blue) was mouth watering! The waitress tried her best to accommodate us via the busyness of the night, sweet thing. We chose the roof top spot for our trio date and it was probably one of the best outings I've had in years. Not to mention a great selection of drinks!

    Delicious food and excellent service! We had to wait a while for the food to arrive, but this is to be expected of this type of restaurant. We sat outside on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.

    To start the place looks like a great casual place to hang out with spouse or friend. Negative, The hostess was sitting me at a table on rooftop after it had rained in the uncovered seats that the table and chairs were covered with water (they're actually squeegeeing them as we speak. I asked could I not be seated at a table that wasn't soaked and said thank you when she sat me , no response. Rude when this is your hospitality. I told her I'd never sit someone in wet seats and table. Waitress Ariana was sweet and attentive! Everything was real good will come again!

    They used to have a vegetarian pasta dish here that I loved. Then suddenly it changed. They exchanged the fresh tomatoes with these slimy tomatoes that are the consistency of fishing worms. I was totally grossed out. So I moved in to the New York Style Margarita pizza. It was fabulous and we both enjoyed it. Tonight they brought it out and it had the same slimy tomatoes they ruined the pasta dish with. I'm done.

    Deep dish pizza

    I've had dinner here twice, both times in a group of 6+. The service both times was great. The servers were polite, personable, helpful, and attentive. The cocktails were flavorful, the beers and ciders were cold. The appetizers were delicious and a good deviation from the standard options at other restaurants in town. I ordered deep dish pizza this time. Just a note, try to order early if you know you're going to get deep dish because it does take longer. My pizza came out when the others were mostly done with their meal, but I knew that would be the case and didn't mind at all. The deep dish is like two different meals; the pizza portion, and then the crust, which is like a delicious, buttery, cheesy breadstick. The interior of the restaurant is decorated well, a nice ambiance, however there is no decor that absorbs sound. Often during the meal, I missed the conversation of our dining companions just across the table from us. They would benefit from either paintings or curtains that would absorb some of the sound so it didn't echo so loudly. The price of the meals is on the higher end for Cookeville, but we will definitely be back as it's a good change of pace.

    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! We went for brunch and were so impressed we went back for dinner! The food was impeccable. Compliments to the Chef!! The service was amazing, Braeden was our server and he was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. This is the perfect restaurant for a romantic date, a date night out or a quick brunch before shopping. They also have a rooftop dining experience! We had brunch on the rooftop and dinner inside, so we were able to experience both. The atmosphere was fantastic inside and out.

    Nice atmosphere. Could be for family or friends. It was the night of the All Star game but not on…read morethe tv's. It would be nice if this was a place to go for sporting events as the beer selection is quite good. We ate a pizza and a chicken Parmesan sandwich. The pizza crust was pale - so slightly undercooked but the cheese on top was perfect. It was a bit heavily sauced. The chicken Parmesan was a bit disappointing. Taste was good but it was diced chicken and would have been better with a good solid chicken cutlet instead. I wasn't a fan of the roll as it was a bit dry. We ordered wine - which came from airline style single drink bottles. A bit underwhelming if you like to drink wine - but perhaps this is not the place for wine. Not sure if I'll be back but it wasn't bad.

    Gene's Place Pizzeria has that classic neighborhood pizza joint feel the moment you walk…read morein....solid wood furniture, the smell of fresh dough in the air, and a cozy atmosphere that just feels right for pizza night. I didn't notice an outdoor patio, but there is a small parking area in the back with a rear entrance, which was convenient. We went on a Tuesday night, which the staff said was one of their slower nights, but by the time we left there were still about 7 tables filled. We ordered the pretzel with beer cheese, Philly cheesesteak pizza, meatball sandwich, and a few strombolis. The pizza and strombolis were fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The beer cheese was really good, though the pretzel itself wasn't my favorite....it tasted a bit microwaved. The meatball sandwich was also excellent with a flavorful sausage and beef mix, great bread, and a generous portion. The staff was pleasant, the beer was cold, and overall it was a great experience. We'd definitely come back again!
