    Fish, hush puppies and roasted corn
    Derek C.

    Stopped in Ringgold because they have a fast charger across the street. We went into Jefferson's to grab a quick lunch. There appeared to be a bit of a wait for tables but bar seating was open so we got right in. It's not exactly earning a Michelin star but, as far as eating along an interstate, this was a better option than most. Some of the options are reasonably healthy as well and portion sizes were not excessive. I got the fish and tried the new roasted corn. The fish was slightly more than nuggets which meant that I didn't even need a fork for that. Total time in the restaurant was about 20 minutes so they were super fast and we were back on the road. I would definitely stop here over any fast food option.

    Finally something other than a meat and three in downtown Ringgold. The menu is somewhat large but its all "bar food". I love the atmosphere but if you are trying to avoid carbs its pretty hard to eat dinner here. I found one item the hamburger steak that met the dietary requirements and it was good. Service was outstanding too. I just wish they offered a few more options for someone not wanting to eat fried everything.

    Excess of the spinach artichoke dip that is on the oysters Rockefeller.

    Oyster Rockefeller was barely warm. Had to send back to be heated. If you like spinach dip then you might like them cause that is all you taste and the water. Waitress was quick to get payment but never asked how things were or refill drinks. I won't be back. For the coat I'll drive further and pay the same for much better quality.

    First time and will become a regular! This awesome atmosphere was perfect for a Saturday afternoon walk around Ringgold. Loved the staff who was right on with service and food. Spot On for any day!

    Buffalo Shrimp & Sweet Potato fries. (Photo color not so good)

    SO happy to try this newish restaurant in Ringgold... we were really pleased as the place is closeby. The friendly service is top notch, always checking on you and refilling drinks. Timing of the dining experience is perfect too from drinks to apps to main course to dessert.... spot on! The decor is awesome... sports and lots of TVs! Polished bar and liquors displayed really well. Outside eating area too.... not sure if they allow dogs though? We started with a glass of Cabernet and Jalapeño Cheese Bites. These were really great, crispy on the outside and the homemade sauce was killer good. We had a Buffalo Shrimp Basket with sweet potato fries and the Shrimp Poboy with fries. Both meals were wonderful! Plenty of food and delicious! The sweet potato fries were definitely sliced and made from scratch... served piping hot, crunchy outside and tender inside... with a side of sweet dippin sauce. WONDERFUL! Buffalo shrimp were great flavor, but the crust was a bit soggy... still nice flavor. The Shrimp Poboy was served with a nice stack of lettuce, fresh tomato and pickles... really delicious. Dessert was a Blondie Brownie! We devoured it... scrumptious with a scoop of ice cream. Definitely will go back again... great place you should try!

    Food was okay, onion rings over cooked and greasy, tasted like cooked in old oil. Business very slow, no alcohol service for a sports bar type restaurant. Sign said temporarily could not serve alcohol. Most likely will not return.

    We first started going to Jefferson's when there was a location in downtown Chattanooga. That location closed and we thought we had lost our favorite wings place. My husband found out through a friend that a NEW Jefferson's had opened in Ringold and we took off to try it out! Man!! They topped any and all expectations we had! Ringold is only about 20 or so minutes from us which is farther than the old location but we'd take the new location any day! The delish wings and really nice new location make it an easy drive to commit to! Lauren was the first person we encountered and she is THE BEST!!! We love visiting her! She makes a good visit, a GREAT one! The entire staff is really friendly and FUN! Jefferson's is still our FAVORITE wing place! They have a full selection of flavors. Our favorites are the garlic parm and the hot yaki So if you're looking for great wings in a fun, new location, I recommend taking the trip to the charming town of Ringold and enjoy!! And oh, if you enjoy the sports ball, they usually have a few TVs programed to games.

    Great spot to relax, enjoy a cold one and the wings are on point!! Great crisp and flavor! My wife is not a huge chicken wing fan but loves the crispy double dipped wings! The turbo charged are fire! Just the right amount of heat!!! The service has always been great!!

So on my first mainland trip in a couple years, I have been trying different burger shops. Jack Brown's had really high reviews, had a super fun vibe, and a really creative menu, which I love. Service was on point. Let's get the elephant out of the room right now - the size. lol I was prepared for a small burger from all the reviews, but, Shake Shack has a small burger, Jack-in-the-Box has a small burger. It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight and the dog. But I ain't gonna lie, that is one tiny burger! It's like...five bites? One for each corner, and then the middle. lol They might be better off coring the middle, and marketing them as hamburger donuts. The easy fix is just order an extra patty for a few bucks more. Same as Shake Shack. The other thing I have a problem with is the, "we don't do lettuce or tomato..." line. Sorry, that's like a pizza with no toppings. Really, it just sounds like they found a way to reduce overhead by not having to prep and pay for vegetables. But whatever... if great burgers can be made without lettuce and tomato, and without a big patty...let's get it on. I'm sorry, but that patty was charbroiled to the point of no juice. This is where a tomato might help with moisture. lol I don't see how this is actually Wagyu. A Wagyu burger should be melting in my mouth. I don't know what happened, but it reminded me of my first job at Burger King, running whoppers through the flame broil conveyor belt. If you got one that just came out, you scored big time. But if you got one that just sat in the warmer for 10 minutes, you got a dry burger. It was a very disappointing burger. Then again, I just had a Shake Shack burger yesterday, and it was nomnom greasy goodness. Of course I was going to be disappointed. It's like Ozzy Osbourne following up Slipknot as the opening act. The fries were great. They came in a huge basket, and the price was very reasonable.

We tried a few beers from Five Wits and per her recommendation got the creamsicle shake as well. Solid beverage choices. The shake tasted part float part milkshake and it was absolutely delicious. Would order again. The food on the other hand was a bit eh. We ordered the Asian q burger and the mushroom melt burger and it took quite a while for them to come out and when they did they had unfortunately been left on the grill for way too long and were charred and crunchy. One set of our fries was cold and the bun to burger ratio was extremely off. Luckily, the staff agreed that our burgers were accidentally overcooked and they remade them no questions asked. The remade burgers were moist and better but still not fantastic. They were just burgers with minimal toppings on them. Not really seasoned and the flavor came from the toppings themselves. The buns were still too big for the burgers so there was a lot of extra bread and they have potential to be great but they were just average. Would have probably been a three star review but the staff and drink selection really earned the extra star. Would go back to drink and maybe snack but probably not order a burger.
