    Sweet and Sour Chicken
    Neil T.

    When one goes out for Chinese food you always run the risk of authentic or imitation Chinese. This is much like what one would want from a Chinese restaurant IMHO. Owners still seem a bit concerned about COVID as they are shielded behind hanging plastic sheets. We ordered sweet and sour chicken and a Kung Po Chicken (after I was assured that it was spicy). My daughter enjoyed her sweets me sour, my Kung po chicken was tasty but not at all spicy. Nonetheless we'd stop back again to try something else

    Mold in Egg Drop Soup

    Don't eat here. First they are not friendly. Second, they are serving bad old molded food. We got some last week. The egg in the Egg Drop Soup was molded. Never again!!!

    Roast pork Lo mein lunch special
    Ken G.

    I think my fellow Yelpers are correct in awarding this restaurant with 3 stars. Service was friendly and prompt. The lunch specials are numerous and include a canned soda OR Eggroll OR soup and fried rice. For $5.59, it's a fair deal. Portions reflect the lower price and my Lo mein dish had slightly more rice than Lo mein. Food was tasty and unlike many of their competitors, they have a FEW actual Chinese dishes. (Roast pork yat gaw mein soup, shredded beef Szechuan style, etc.)

    Orange chicken and fried rice

    Really good Chinese food! We've been here twice with great and fast service both times. Sesame chicken has been our favorite so far and the steamed dumplings are really good. Exactly what you want from Chinese food!

    This was on my list to try while visiting Chattanooga. I love trying vegetarian places that aren't…read moreall about fake meat. I just got a burrito to go and lucked out with parking in front. It was pretty quiet (early on a Friday evening). I only saw one employee while I was there and she was very nice. She brought me a glass of water while I waited. The burrito was DELICIOUS. I added tofu to it, which probably wasn't necessary, but I love tofu. I guess I was a little disappointed they didn't really do anything to it. I should not have eaten the whole thing, but I couldn't stop. The chips and salsa were also really good. The chips were very crispy and the salsa was fresh. The prices are really reasonable too! I would go back if I visited again (and I don't think I'd say that about anywhere else I ate).

    Parking: Street parking is conveniently located right out…read morefront and usually easy to find. If those spots are taken, there's additional parking behind the building. Just be prepared for a short walk up the back stairs or around the side to reach the entrance. Seating & Restroom: There's both indoor and outdoor seating. The restroom is gender inclusive and wheelchair accessible. Service: Over the past 10 years and many visits, including celebrating multiple birthdays here, service has sometimes felt a bit inattentive or stretched thin. That said, on my most recent solo Sunday brunch visit, the bartender/server was genuinely warm, friendly, and attentive, which made a noticeable difference in the overall experience. It was refreshing and their kind and caring energy was so appreciated. Prices: Prices are very reasonable for the generous portion sizes. Menu & Food: The menu covers a wide range of offerings, which is ambitious and gives plenty of options. I've returned several times to try something new, hoping to discover a standout dish. I haven't quite found anything to write home about yet as most dishes land in the "just okay" category for me. They're filling, but not especially bold, flavorful, or memorable. As someone who really enjoys vibrant spices and layered flavor, I keep hoping the next dish I try will shine, but everything I've had thus far tends to be a bit on the uninspired side. The pancakes have been the most reliable item over the years. They aren't over-the-top, but they're consistently good and comforting. The kids' stack is especially generous and more than enough for most adults. The only French toast option is peanut French toast; a classic version would be a nice addition for those with peanut allergies or folks just looking for regular French toast. On my latest visit, I ordered the migas, which come as four mini tacos with a small side salad. It was decent, though nothing particularly memorable. I ordered a side of hashed potatoes, which were a bit dry. I also ordered a side of the cheese grits, which were unfortunately the low point for me. They were thin and more brothy than creamy. It was a bit like eating nutritional yeast slop. As a Southerner who absolutely loves grits, I'm honestly hoping there may have been a mix-up that day. I'd hate for anyone unfamiliar with Southern cooking, or vegan grits, to think that's the standard, because they can be incredibly rich and satisfying when done well (Sevananda in ATL, for example, has amazing vegan cheese grits), but these were very disappointing. With a little more creativity in the kitchen and perhaps some bolder seasoning or new sauces, the menu could really shine. I truly hope Sluggo's continues to thrive and considers adding more explicitly organic menu options. Just a bit more flavor and flair could really make it a standout.

The restaurant can be found on the lower level just below an ice cream shop. Muscadine vines climb a staircase to the right. On warm days there are a few outdoor seating options which I'm sure are hard to get. In doors were cozy filled with greenery. Seats and table had an American folk feel. I was interested in the beet burger. The day I went, I ordered the special any patty with mushrooms and Gouda. Great flavor! I expected the beet patty to be closer to beet texture. It wasn't very beet like in texture or flavor. It was pink like beets. If you don't like the earthy flavor of beets, you'll be able to handle this patty. I didn't try something new for my sides. I ordered tots-always will choose tots! They were good. My only complaint was that the bathroom lights were to dim! I look forward to coming back here, the next time I need an escape from N AL!

We were waiting for the server to process our checks but they never came. I had to ask where we paid. I personally would not come back but we really only went because my friend is gluten free.

The sauce was on the sweeter side, but still tasty. - Teppan Tofu Bibimpak: Came out sizzling! The tofu was crispy on the outside, almost custard-like on the inside.

Also, if you spend $30 in one transaction, you get $10 VG cash for next time (no minimum purchase necessary, expires within 10 days). Honestly, I wouldn't hesitate to go back and try other dishes if it was a bit closer to my house. 10/10 would recommend!
