The patty melt Pizza and calzones Chili (homemade)/all beef hotdog Oh don't forget to order some siracha cheese curds!! Service is great and friendly. The vibe is family/chill, they also have outdoor seating. read more

Oh. My. Word. What a delicious burger!!!! I ordered the "Jimmy Burger" and my husband ordered the "classic bacon burger". You gotta love a place that is specific about what kind of mayo (Dukes) that they use on their burgers. Both burgers were cooked, absolutely perfectly and seasoned deliciously. And oh my goodness, the bacon! The fries were done just right and so was my fried okra. We had our four-legged fur baby with us so we did not go inside so I can't talk about ambience inside, but it was nice sitting out on the front porch although the seating needs to be upgraded just a smidge. Service was fast and super friendly. Definitely a place we will be going back to to try some of the other menu items. read more

It's sweet to know that this is a family owned business where the dad is in the back cooking up a meal patty melt and to die for blt! They were so friendly even brought us out a pizza to try that he's been perfecting. I love this restaurant and can't wait to return. You can tell the dad has a passion for cooking because man that was the best patty melt I've ever had read more

Peter is the BEST cook! Every time I've gone in there I have cleared the entire plate. They make some incredible salads. Angie knows how to make food taste delicious and TJ makes you feel at home. Love coming here. I recommend it to anyone who wants a delicious home cooked meal for a great price. The best part is sitting in the dining room with everyone who came to enjoy a great meal and striking up a friendly conversation with your neighbor. read more

Gg's Restaurant - Delicious Chef Salad - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cleveland, Tennessee

It wasn't there. Deserted building. We found a place around the corner and it was great.

I chose breakfast for lunch. The best thing I can say is their sausage was delicious. Outside of that- it wasn't very good. The service was spotty, and the food (other than the sausage) was just ok. I'm hoping they see this review and recognize it's an easy fix to produce better food. I think they are more than capable of doing so. read more

First time I brought a group of 8, food and service was great. Second time brought a group of 12 food was still good but the young blonde was very rude to some teenagers that were in my group. If a group is spending 200.00 dollars I expect good respectful service. Last time visiting for me. I'll find another place to take my rafting groups. read more

Summer.... summer.... My friend and my daughter, and I -we all took a trip to the Hiwassee River. It was amazing-rafting down the river... it took us 3 hours. Of course our appetite was so big too after water and fresh air. This diner was on our way home back to Chattanooga. We noticed this place on the way to the river since it has a big sign. The early dinner was amazing. We had fresh cat fish, it was a special that day. The fish was flaky and cooked right to my taste. The sides were good too with touch of home. The prices are so good. It was easy to chose. The dinner had many people in , I think local people love this place. We decided to stop there every time we go to the river. We even tried their special dessert fried cherry pie. I love this place! read more

Stopped at GG's for lunch on Saturday with my husband on Harley and our friends with their huge RV - ample parking. Really good, made to order food and friendly service. Clean, cozy place. Loved the burgers, farm fresh eggs, grilled ham and cheese and big fluffy pancakes. Tater tots and fries are crispy and delicious. Even though breakfast ends at 11, owner TJ still made pancakes and eggs for us. We loved the food and atmosphere. read more

Great food & service. Wanted a great hamburger and that's what I got! No long wait to be seated. They have outdoor and indoor seating. Daily specials or whatever you want on the menu. Nice, friendly owners that aren't too busy to say hello. Would definitely recommend. read more

Traveling as I do it's always nice to find a great local place to eat. Lottie's was recommended to me by a local and she hit the nail on the head when she said they had the best hamburgers! I had their cheeseburger with tater tots. The burger was, in a word, huge. It must have been 8 ounces, dressed just right and delicious. The tots were cooked just right, nice and crispy. The service was terrific, as well. Give Lottie's a try. You won't regret it. read more

Located in a small town, it is a typical small local restaurant with a small counter and a room with a number of tables. It has off street parking and a small deck for a couple of outside seating. I was there on a Saturday afternoon on a motorcycle ride with some friends. We sat outside and it was a busy place with lots of locals coming and going. We did not get waited on but one of the guys riding knew the workers/owner so he got a pad and took our orders. The people/staff are friendly but the food was below par, at least what I had and one of the guys had. My burger was small and the bun was huge which was disappointing. Fries were just OK. The other guy with us had a pork chop and it was very thin and overcooked/tough. Oh yea, no alcohol; just saying. It may be a great place for locals so it is probably a good place based on the number of people coming and going but my experience was less than average so I have to give it a 2. read more

With biscuits and gravy on the brain one dreary weekday morning, I head to this top-rated hole-in-the-wall. The quintessential diner setup excites a sucker for chintzy diners. Walk in and the first thing you see is a couple of chatty old men watching the news at a dining counter. Then you notice the hefty waitresses juggle orders in front of large stoves. Classic. The menu boasts a "cathead biscuit" - one so big it's the size of a cat's head. I order eggs and bacon with a cathead biscuit and gravy, then squirm impatiently in my stool, anticipating what is sure to be the southern diner breakfast of a lifetime. In no time my food arrives. Two large biscuits slathered with gravy, an egg fried to my liking and three strips of bacon share a plate. The egg and bacon are gravy, but the gravy is not. It is so thick and fatty that it's seconds away from congealing into a solid clump of lard. When cut in half, the biscuit reveals a uniform checker print of butter squares indicative of store-bought freezer biscuits. I could deal with this if the biscuits were tasty, but they are not. They are dense as bricks. Combined with the gravy, the result is a sure fire stomachache. If you find yourself in the area and in want of a good diner breakfast, maybe take a pass on Lottie's. read more

So far everything I've had at this local diner has been good. My only complaint is if you're going to prepare a wonderful burger with all the great flavors and quality go the extra mile and pair it with real French fries. I was looking forward to eating some fresh homemade fries and they were the frozen mushy ones. I really enjoyed my burger but huge disappointment when it came to the side. The staff are friendly. A little slow with getting what you ask but it gets busy and that's understandable. I recommend stopping in. The owner is very nice and talks with everyone. read more

The staff and food at GG's were one of a kind. My friends and I, were in a wedding later that day and we decided to stop by for some breakfast. Each of us loved our food and almost all of us got some tea, which I highly recommend. TJ, one of the owners, was kind enough to even give me some advice on running a business. 10/10, great place to go read more

GG's has the most amazing garlic burger. Wonderful customer service and great quality food. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants.

Great place to eat! Food was delicious and everyone was so friendly. Don't miss the chance to try this place.

Hard to believe no place open on Saturday morning in Etowah to eat breakfast. (Sorry, don't like Waffle House due to all the grease). Drove to GG's and it was really good! Homemade grits and the omelet was good size with lots of ham and vegetables and NO GREASE! We will go back next Saturday! read more

Friendly folks and I crave their breakfasts! They took the required precautions the last couple of months to make sure everyone stays healthy. read more

A tasty roadside diner. The ladies behind the counter were charming and their cookin' was authentic and yummy. Meatloaf special, the fried okra, and greens were awesome. Go early for the cathead biscuits. My kid ordered the last one and loved it. The ambience is highlighted by a fine collection of John Deere decor. Definitely worth the stop. read more

I have been on the search for a month now for the best hamburger /cheeseburger in east tennessee. I have traveled far and wide on my motorcycle looking for this perticular meal. Still haven't found it. Lotties is a great place to eat. It's a older diner style environment with country garb on the walls. A very clean restaurant with super nice staff. Today as I was driving through Benton looking for the good junk stores and I thought, why not try Lotties. The menu showed they served crinkle fries on the pics and that already had me a happy man. When we walked in we were immediately bombarded with hello's and welcome to Lotties greetings. We were seated and the waitress wasted no time taking our orders. I had the double cheeseburger with fries and a cola. The wife had the single burger with fries and a drink. The order came within about 8 minutes which made me happy. Can't beat fast service.... The meat was thick and hand pattied. Fried on a flat diner griddle was a plus. When I took my first bite I was expecting fireworks to go off in my brain but sorry to say it was more like a scratched needle on a old record. The meat had NO seasoning and was just that. Plain tasting meat. UGh!!! I was very disappointed in the fries because they weren't crinkle fries like I had hoped for and seen in the menu pics. Just plain straight cut fries. The meal was good but a disappointment in a lot of ways. If I returned I wouldn't try the burger again. I give them 4 stars for the awesome atmosphere, kindness and clean business. Note to anyone that reads these post. They advertise a very hard to find Cat Head biscuit for breakfast. I will be returning for breakfast soon. I really hope with the Cat Head biscuit they serve a Red Eye Gravy. Haven't had Red Eye Gravy since my mom passes away in 2000. read more

This is a home town diner where the locals go for a good meal at a fair price. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. Nothing fancy, but a great place for one to six people to go and enjoy each others company in a small country restaurant. Handicapped folks will have a hard time using the restroom facilities, but will be able to enjoy a meal easily on the front deck. read more

Yuck. This food was greasy and we thought it was very bad. We won't recommend it and the biscuits are not that great either. Actually we didn't like them at all. Sorry. read more

Stopped in with my 86 year old dad (he's very picky about his food). We went with the cheeseburger and onion rings for lunch. Burger was very tasty and large. Rings were delicious . As good as the food was - the service was what really stood out- love finding these kind of places. We will definitely be back!!! read more

The atmosphere here was rustic. Like, very rustic. It's sort of a trailer with a little dining room addition. Don't let that scare you away, the food is the honest American truth. Everybody in the place seemed to know each other and they all looked like they were on break from farming or building roads or something. They all made fun of each other. I took this to be a good sign. I got the pulled pork. It came in a massive mound. I bet there was a literal pound of it. I almost ate the whole thing and I'm usually a vegetarian. The sauce was good, but this is the pig's show and he made the best of his time in the spotlight. Rich, tender, delicious. I got the black-eyed peas and greens for sides. They were fine backup singers. The cornbread was sweet, northern style, which I thought was strange for such a quintessentially southern place. Fine dining it ain't, but good eatin' it is. read more

Don't order a platter! The staff doesn't read the menu and know what all comes with a platter meal. After being given all of two seconds to read the menu, I ordered a cheeseburger platter. I received half of what it was supposed to come with and was then charged for each item I got individually rather than for the price of the platter meal. The atmosphere was loud and it was impossible to hold a conversation because of it. The waitress spoke to us and other customers from across the restaurant rather than walking back over to the table. This was a very bad experience and we will not be returning! read more

Great food and value. Not the cleanest place or the most attentive service but not insulting either. The food was worth it all!

While traveling to Townsend,TN we were looking for a place to have lunch. This place is FABULOUS. If you are looking for great food at great prices this is the place. Food is fresh made and several items are made in house. We'll worth the stop read more

Biggest dang biscuits ever! The home town cafe is the place to go if you are hungry for breakfast. The egg, tenderloin and smothered biscuit was definitely more than one person could eat, as well as delicious. The coffee is good and free flowing. If you come before nine on a Saturday morning, you can find out all the news and gossip from the locals. The entire place seats around 25 people and everyone knows everyone. For local flair and good food try Lottie's. read more

Amazing food!!! Good country cooking cooked the right way by ladies who know how to get it done!!!

Fantastic food and friendly service. THE best (and biggest) burger I've ever eaten. If you order a double cheeseburger, you'd better be prepared to down 16 oz of beef, plus the fixings. A must-stop after a great day rafting the Ocoee! read more
