    The female owner or manager was so attentive and caring. The restaurant is clean, organized and has a beautiful presentation of the food and topping options. We tried the falafel an it was light and flavorful. We also tried the lamb and beef bowl. Delicious!! It isn't cheap but you get what you pay for!!

    Really good people but the food is so nasty I love middle Eastern food to death but this is just so bland and flavorless and I ended up throwing it up and very expensive, I'm just so bummed that I spent $20 for a bowl for it just to end up in the toilet

    Many choices to get exactly what you like. Friendly staff & so glad to have this as a food choice in Fountain City.

    Headed to a Smokies game, we chose to stop into SmashCity for a pregame burger…read more The service and burger came up quickly. I opted for the truffle smash and large fry. My buddy opted for the Spicy Smash. The burgers were mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm great, Juicy and the bun held up. Fries were fresh and would like to see maybe a topping or poutine option for them. Cool spot to get some AC and great burger before a Smokies game or a night in the old City.

    We already had 250 miles under our belt for the day. 4 more hours to home. I was sick of fast food…read moreand we were making good time so we decided to venture off the road, but just a little. SmashCity wasn't far off of the interstate, it had good ratings and although we'd been eating burgers and fries quite a bit on this roadtrip, a good burger and fries really sounded good. All of the reviews were right on - this was absolutely NOT fast food - it was fast, really fast, but the speed was just bonus. As we usually do, we split. We chose the Carolina BBQ smash. The burgers were juicy - if you're not careful, I guarantee you'll be wearing it. Two critiques, it definitely needed more sauce - I just added some of the SmashCity sauce from our fries and it worked but I really would have liked to have had more BBQ sauce. Second, the fried onions were quite burned. I pulled off most of them. The hand cut fries were piping hot, just the right amount of greasy and seasoned perfectly. Splitting the burger was a good call - I'd never have eaten the whole thing myself. The burger and fries were just over $20. When you consider a Big Mac meal at that clown place is $14, SmashCity is almost a bargain. Paul, the owner was like the energizer bunny - he was everywhere at once. Personality oozed from his pores. Make sure you tell him Sue said hi! (He won't remember me but just say hi anyway!) Now I wouldn't say SmashCity has the best burgers - that award goes to our friend Jerry. He makes a pretty mean smash burger on the blackstone. If you have an extra half hour, skip the fast food burger joints, get off that highway, and go let Paul fill your belly for the rest of your trip! You'll appreciate it!

    My first Yelp review is inspired by an adventure that led me to The Kraken's Cup. This is a…read moreheartwarming and inspiring tale though it is not without its troubles (and it is quite long but I hope you'll find it worth the read). Our story begins with a bad day that just seemed to keep getting worse. Our hero (me, hi) decided to go out and procure a little treat in order to feel comforted in a way only a good cup of tea could accomplish. What better place than to The Kraken's Cup? Our hero had never been and was interested in a takeout order. On the drive over, our hero's journey took a turn for the worse. It was around rush hour which meant Road Ragers were abound. Our hero mistakenly offended the delicate senses of one of these dastardly creatures and took a golf ball to the side of their sedan! Once our hero made it to The Kraken's Cup they were quite distressed and distraught and, on the way in, nearly considered turning back. But no! Our hero was persistent. And thankfully too, for as soon as they entered The Kraken's Cup, all their worries began to melt away. The little rectangle of modern rentable space The Kraken's Cup resides in has been transformed into a lovely getaway from the outside world. The leafy decorations, antique wooden furniture, and bright pops of blue (or red, seemingly dependent on which side of the tea house you are on) all come together to create a welcoming, playful, and soothing environment. The old-timey music that played over the speakers was romantic and nostalgic in such a way that one could not ever be too miserable in such a place. Our hero began to settle in and asked the lovely host, Elizabeth, if the take out order they originally came for could become a sit down experience. From there, our hero ordered The Power "T"ea, consisting of a scone (that came with mock clotted cream, honey, and apricot jam--all very delicious) and tea (our hero originally chose Blackbeard's Treasure which they unfortunately were out of--Elizabeth swooped in with a clear knack and knowledge for tea and suggested the Irish Rum which was quite lovely, sweet, and fruity in a way that reminded our hero of bananas which they told Elizabeth. Elizabeth then boasted an impressive knowledge of bananas that astounded and amazed our hero, who may return if only to discover what else she knows). At this point, our hero is feeling much better. They began to feel thankful for the Road Rager and his golf ball projectile if only because it revealed to our hero the true healing power of a cup of tea. Our hero is beginning to think this experience can't get much better until Elizabeth, with a delightful trick up her sleeve, brings out a dish of The Kraken's Cup very own strawberries and cream! Our hero thanks Elizabeth profusely and then heartily digs in to what turned out to be their favorite part of it all. Strawberries and cream? More like strawberries and dreams... because it's so good.. it's like a dream... get it? Heh. Anyway. The narrator struggles to figure out how to wrap up this yelp review. It is my first one after all. Thank you to Elizabeth and The Kraken's Cup for restoring my faith in humanity and providing me such a lovely experience. I will definitely be back and will highly recommend to anyone seeking whimsy and/or really good tea.

    What a lovely little tea shop. It is a bit hidden away, a few doors down from Food City, tucked…read moreinto an alcove between stores. My daughter and I came on a Sunday at noon for an afternoon tea and were seated right away in the garden themed room by Christian. He explained the menu and the expansive tea list (SO many options and well-organized and explained via menu). He mentioned that an afternoon tea experience typically lasts around 1.5 hours. My daughter ordered the Picnic at the World's Fair kid tea experience and I got the Old City Socie-Tea. We ended up waiting about 35-40 minutes to receive our tea but after that, the scone and finger food courses rolled out quickly. The scone (with clotted cream, preserves, and lemon curd) was incredible. The scone was fresh, warm and incredibly soft and crumbly. It was even heart shaped! As for the savory sandwiches and bites:The chopped ham sandwich my daughter liked a lot, but she did not care for the cheese sandwich, which was a stacked slice of sticky, and slightly sweet American cheese. I liked the mozzarella and sun-dried tomato bite, the deviled egg, and the cucumber sandwich. I did not enjoy the chicken salad, which was very celery and onion heavy on an unfortunately stale croissant. I do with that we were given the option of mix and match for finger sandwiches. There were a few other items that I couldn't determine what they were. I would have loved a description card or quick walkthrough as to what was on each tray. We both loved the pastry bites dessert option. The brownie, raspberry cheesecake, and the lemon tart were so tasty! Aside from the experience aspect of the tea service, I loved seeing the staff interact with regulars and treat them as family. The manager was greeting and checking in with each table which is a nice touch. There are conversation cards on each table for tech-free chats and we also loved the special touch of the heart shaped sugar cubes. We had a great time and can see going back for tea, scones, and maybe one of the salads and the dessert bites.
