We had a couple of friends visiting us from RI so I decided to make reservations for dinner last night. Our company commented on how nice the restaurant is and the 4 of us were seated at a large booth which gave us plenty of room. We were promptly greeted by Bree, who brought us waters and took our drink order. We ordered the spinach dip which everyone devoured. On to dinner...I have been here several times and asked Bree to help me decide between the Chef's pasta or the buttermilk chicken. She recommended the pasta if I was hoping to have leftovers. I had it with the Cajun cream sauce and blackened salmon. Absolutely delicious!!!! The other dishes were blackend salmon with Pomodoro sauce and the sea bass. Ordered a side of brussel sprouts and garlic parm fries for the table to share. Bree was outstanding and our meals were all delicious. We prefer to eat at the bar but we're very happy with our table and the service. read more

Label Restaurant - Well done burger...almost medium well but very dry, like all the juice was pressed out during the cooking. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Recently visited Label for the first time in years and the experience didn't disappoint. Love that they have sushi options along with steaks, pastas, salads, and sandwiches. On this occasion I had a spicy tuna roll, which is my go to. We also ordered Firecracker Shrimp and Crab Rangoon for the table. The sushi and crab Rangoon were both great and I would definitely get again. The shrimp was ok but I've had better at different restaurants. For my entree I ordered the Chef's Pasta and opted for the Cajun cream sauce with blackened salmon. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce and salmon made it the perfect combo. Would definitely get this entree again. The service was great and our drinks never ran dry. Our waitress made several suggestions for the table and was super attentive and kind. Overall we had a great experience at Label and will be back. read more

Very casual and nice place to dine and enjoy while in Downtown Johnson City! Our drinks were served quickly and food came out fast, hot and delicious. We had ordered the Crab Rangoons, Firecracker Shrimp, and Hand Cut Garlic Fries. The aioli sauce was addicting that we started dipping the fries in it too! For my main entree, I had a Classic Cheeseburger with a side of Truffle Mac & Cheese, which was very creamy. Our server was great making sure our drinks were full and would check on us to make sure we were good. read more

Disappointed is an understatement. After reading mixed reviews, I decided to make my own decision. Now I wish I had opted for a different restaurant. This was the worst $100 I've spent on a meal in my life. We had the fried pickles for an appetizer and they were very good, although I was charged for extra ranch, which I thought was absurd. I ordered the filet with mashed potatoes and corn. And my sister had the same but with asparagus instead of potatoes. The steak had ZERO flavor, the mashed potatoes were dry and bland. The asparagus was mushy. The corn was good. This was my first and last time at this restaurant. Our server was very good, pleasant and friendly. The place appeared to be nice and clean. I only wish the food was worth it. read more

This place is amazing. Have been here before and I had ordered a burger, I just remember it was exceptional with cheese and bacon. This was a couple years ago now but I still recall how flavorsome it was. I also had the killer yummy Brussel sprouts with a great wine selection (Caymus On the menu!) Tonight I ordered the sea bass, Brussels again and a Side of risotto! Absolutely delicious. Had a red blend to accompany the combo, Conundrum. Not common that a Bar & Grill has a good wine selection, where here a lot to choose from. I wasn't forced to order a beer which was nice. Although I'm sure their beer is just as good. Again, everything was exceptional. Definitely recommend coming here. read more

First night in Johnson City and wanted to find a local spot for dinner. Label proved to be an excellent decision. As a party of 1, I skipped an appetizer but did get a side salad with my entree. It was a very good salad with balsamic vinaigrette. I asked about the bourbon vinaigrette and the face my server made didn't sell me on it. For my entree I got the pork chop with the maple Brussel sprouts and truffle Mac & cheese. This entree would cost much more than it did, if I were at home in Florida. It's not often that I find myself concentrating eating the sides more than the protein. The maple Brussel sprouts were so good. And let's face it, many restaurant macaroni & cheese is subpar. This one was very good. The pork chop was cooked perfectly. While I enjoyed the strawberry jalapeño bacon jam, it was sweeter than most bacon jams (yes I know it has strawberry) so reminded me more of a bbq sauce, but a very good bbq sauce for sure. I was too full to try dessert. The old fashioned I had, was a solid one. I've had better, I've had worse. I will definitely come back here if in the area and would not hesitate to recommend it. read more

Seth was the most amazing server! On top of the best service, we had delicious drinks, apps and dinner! We enjoyed the Hazy IPAs, the exception, strawberry margaritas and great food- sushi, lamp pops, chicken with pesto sauce and Bison chop steak. As visitors with newly relocated family members, this was the best food and service by far in Johnson City! Seth shared his local knowledge and Aloha! Reservations recommended! read more

Food, service, and ambiance were all great! Excellent food at local bar prices. I had the goat cheese salad and drunken goat burger, and they really did not skimp on that goat cheese! read more

I usually love this place a lot! The vibes are good and the food is good. A few complaints one, about 90% of the time the staff is so rude and unwelcoming. I do love the times that I go and the staff is so friendly and fun. Which is very rare. On another note and this may sound silly but I decided to order a glass of prosecco and it came out in a white wine glass. I wasn't upset until I noticed the table next to me also order prosecco and receive their drink in the correct glass (a flute). I of course know this sounds silly but I would suggest for Label to either order more flute glasses or just hand out all the same glasses to each and every guest. The out come is I will be returning but won't be ordering any sort of wine or champagne again. read more

Disappointed. I was looking for Southern-fried chicken, as I always do when traveling in the south from my home in California, and the "buttermilk-fried chicken" sounded like what I was after. But this wasn't it. I got two pieces of boneless chicken, both white meat - OK, but not the authentic Southern feel of pan-fried white and dark chicken pieces. One of the two pieces was about 1/4" thick, so it was tough after frying. There was little seasoning, so not much flavor - I added a generous amount of salt and dipped in the BBQ aioli sauce just to add interest. The garlic fries weren't crisp or hot when served, and I hardly tasted the garlic seasoning. I left about 2/3 of them on the plate. The restaurant is an old bar and grill in downtown Johnson City. Parking is limited - I had to park in a lot 1.5 blocks away from and walk. If back in town, I might try Label another time to see if other menu items are better. But I won't be ordering the chicken. read more

Label Restaurant - Bar Area - Sushi Bars Near Me - Johnson City, Tennessee

Label Restaurant in Johnson City is the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. The moment you walk in, you're welcomed into a warm, rustic environment where repurposed materials, tasteful wood textures, and thoughtful lighting work together to create an atmosphere that is both inviting and elevated. It's stylish without being pretentious -- relaxed, but still very intentional. General Manager Bailee sets the tone beautifully. Her leadership shows in the way the staff moves -- confident, attentive, and genuinely proud of what they're creating. It's a young crew, but their professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail are impressive. The restaurant was spotless -- from the dining floor to the glassware to the bar. Cleanliness was clearly a priority, but it never felt forced or sterile. It simply felt well cared for. As a food photographer, I had the chance to taste and visually study over 25 dishes, and this is where Label truly shines. The kitchen -- led by a chef who understands both flavor and aesthetic -- delivers plates that are visually composed with intention. The color contrasts, the balance of textures, the careful garnishing -- everything appeared camera-ready the moment it hit the table. But behind the beauty is real freshness and flavor. The ingredients tasted vibrant and high-quality; nothing felt processed or heavy-handed. Plates had depth, but also clarity -- the kind of food where you can identify every flavor note, yet still enjoy the harmony of the whole dish. The sushi was bright and clean, the proteins were handled with skill, sauces were well-reduced and thoughtfully paired, and even simple sides carried their own character. Label delivers an experience that feels remarkably close to fine dining, but without any of the stiffness or exclusivity. Instead, it's approachable, warm, and confident -- the kind of place where creativity meets comfort. Thank you, Bailee! read more

This is a consistently great place to eat. Always amazing food. Everyone we take here, loves it!!

Sushi was ok. We have the best sushi in AR, so it's tough to beat. Didn't taste super fresh. Potstickers and lamp lollipops were good!!! Edamame wasn't great. Service was good and atmosphere is awesome. Great to come watch at game or Olympics (like we are). read more

We ended up at Label for a birthday dinner since no other places had reservations, but it turned out to be a bit of a mixed experience. My boyfriend ordered a steak, which was unfortunately very fatty and disappointing. The rest of the food was okay, but the standout for me, as always, was the sweet potato waffle fries--they're consistently delicious! The service was good, though, and the staff was friendly and attentive. While it wasn't the best dining experience overall, the fries, service, and ambiance were definite highlights. read more

Whoo Hoo! What a find. We started out with spinach dip. It came out piping hot the cheese was just oozing all over the top. Entrees included pork chop with corn and Mac and cheese, shrimp and grits, grilled salmon with grits and grilled asparagus, and Sea Bass with risotto and carrots. We also got a side of Brussels sprouts. Pork chop cooked well the jalapeño strawberry bacon relish was delish and a great accompaniment. The bacon sweet corn was sweet and creamy with a full depth of flavor. The mac and cheese was creamy. Salmon the cheese grits were good and the asparagus were cooked nicely. Sea Bass with cream sauce was flavorful. The risotto was basic and could have used some other flavor. The maple carrots were tasty not oozing with maple but definitely good. My opinion the shrimp and grits was the show stopper. The Cajun cream sauce is absolutely wonderful. It has so much flavor and the creaminess blend well with the grits and offers a really nice base for the shrimp. Dessert was drunken cheesecake. The blackberry sauce was generously applied to the huge wedge of cheesecake. It was not too sweet but a perfect blend. Drinks Bloody Mary as spicy and the toppers enhanced the flavor. Brown ale beer was smooth. Our server Alli was very attentive. She listened and paid attention. The restaurant was very clean and has a lot of woodwork. The vibe was relaxed. If you have a chance to eat here take it. read more

This place came highly recommended by their sister restaurant Southern Craft! I had just enough time for lunch before heading to the airport. The bartender at SC said that Label had an amazing bourbon selection so I had to check it out. First off, I had to try the Colonel EH Taylor since I hadn't had it before. It was super smooth and delicious. Then the bartender pointed out a special bottle of Blanton's that I'd never seen before - game on! It was also delicious! I ordered the goat cheese burger form my lunch. The fries were incredible and the assembled burger was amazing except for the patty - it resembled a frozen patty that comes in a 30-pack. It still tasted good but not what I'd expect for this restaurant. Overall, Label was a great experience and the service was above and beyond. Their bartender was kind and helpful and perfectly engaging - attentive but not overbearing. I'd like to eat here for dinner, I imagine it's fantastic. read more

Second time here and it's definitely earned a fourth star. Their Happy Hour on Saturday is great. Love the service, prices, drinks, and appetizers.

Nice place and the service was very good. We ordered an appetizer (fried pickles) and each got an entree. My son got the Smokey Mountain Roll and loved it. I got the Drunken Goat: a good burger, lots of goat cheese and a blackberry jam, it had bacon and spring lettuce. Our server, Hope, was very attentive. She was also apologetic as our food arrived without side salads: she brought us salads several minutes later. Overall, a positive experience and we would return. read more

Service was great. My server was so sweet. Unfortunately my sushi was not. I mean that had to be the worst sushi I've ever eaten. I love sushi so i might be coming off harsh. Although, i ordered the spider roll (my fault for not reading the description) and there was lettuce and... red bell peppers? Never in my life have i had red bell pepper in sushi before. I give the sushi 0 out of 10. Seriously terrible. That cheese cake caramel thing tho. Absolutely fire. read more

I am sorry to say but in my opinion this restaurant is overrated, the food isn't that good to wait 30 or more minutes to get sit. The service is good, very attentive to their customers. The ambience is very nice and comfortable. Prices are good as well. I was maybe expecting more from their food because of the reviews. read more

I brought my wife here for our anniversary, and everything was perfect. I had the Firecracker shrimp ( from the appetizer menu) and a house salad. There was enough to bring some back home. My wife had the crab rangoons and potstickers, and both were excellent. The waiter we had never let our drinks runout, quick service, and very friendly. Sadly, I don't remember his name. The manager came by the table to ask how everything was. I told him it was great and he went and brought back a card for an appetizer for our next visit. Really excellent experience, and will definitely return. Great job Label! read more

Lively atmosphere. Shrimp and grits are yummy. Need to make reservations , we sat at the bar in comfy stools.

We loved so much about Label. The decor was fun. The music was great and the right volume. The staff was ver accomidating. Now let's get to the food. My husband had the shrimp and grits, and he knows his shrimp and grits. He loved it. I had a simple salmond salad which was much more than simple. The fish was hot, moist and delicious. The greens were fresh and crunchy. We were so pleased and will be back there soon. read more

The vibe is really fun at the Label. I had bison chopped steak with mushrooms, onions and gravy over a large helping of mashed potatoes. $16. Added a delicious side salad for $2.50. The California sushi roll was delicious. The fried salmon roll was not my favorite. I don't like fried sushi. My kids had good size cheeseburgers and fries and drinks for only $6 each. We were passing through on our vacation and would definitely go back. The servers and staff were all great! read more

When I was visiting my bf, we went to Label based off of a recommendation and all of the awards they've received. My intention was to get my sushi cravings satisfied, but my boyfriend ordered the lamb chops and we split the spinach dip for our app. The spinach dip came out piping hot with tricolor tortilla chips. The dip itself was a bit bland, but the thick layer of cheese on top was really nice. My boyfriend loved the lamb, as it was tender and seasoned well. As for the sushi, it wasn't very good. The fish they used was definitely frozen and old. I also asked for a side of spicy mayo for my roll, but the chef put the sauce underneath my roll for some reason... not ideal if you were to take unfinished food to go. My stomach started hurting not even 30 minutes after having lunch here and I was visiting the toilet frequently for the remainder of the day. For a business that's received awards for "best sushi", I was expecting a lot better than it was. The fish selection for sashimi and nigiri was just sad... the most you can really get was probably salmon, tuna, and yellowtail. Please DO NOT eat their sushi items that contain raw fish! After this experience, I've learned to only trust Asian owned businesses for sushi. Overall, the service was great but it seems like they're trying to do too much here and should just stick to American foods. read more

Everything is great service, food and ambiance. Love the shrimp and grits are to die for. Great selection of Bourbons.

My wife and I like to try new places as we travel around. The Label did not disappoint. They were busy but we were seated right away. It was fairly open and spacious but not super noisy. Our server was awesome and gave great recommendations. We started with chips and spinach dip. The dip was amazing, great flavors. I had the Reuben sandwich...I've had a lot of Reubens around the US and this one is at the top of the list. Wife had the Caribbean Chicken sandwich and really liked it. Will be back whenever we are in town. read more

5 stars all the way around! Enjoyed the Prime Rib and a Godzilla roll! The Lamb Lollipops and Truffle Burger was good too. Both were excellent! The place was hopping and on a Wednesday night too. Seating was comfortable and the service was fantastic. The rest of my group enjoyed their meals as well. Service at the bar was also great! Lively atmosphere and fun. Our server, Kaetlan was also fantastic and on the spot any time we needed anything. I recommend making reservations ahead of time. Parking was fine but I could see how at times on the weekends it may be more challenging. The variety of sushi rolls was good but I don't recall seeing any sashimi. Probably because the variety was so good they can't have everything! LOL. read more

We stopped by on a Thursday evening. I made a reservation because we have tried to dine here before and were turned away. So glad we stopped by ! We had a most delicious (drunken goat) burger. The flavors went together just right. Gotta love TN and their happy hour time. We had 22 oz beers for only $5. We also had a sushi roll for an appetizer and crab Rangoon. Hubby especially liked the crab Rangoon. Service was friendly and helpful. Can't wait to stop by again when we are visiting our son and his wife in Kingsport. Give them a try - you will be glad you did. read more

I can't believe I am just writing a review, maybe it's good I did wait because my earlier visit I was rubbed the wrong way by the hostess who kept overlooking our reservation and seating people before us with no reservation. I almost vowed to not return until one day my team asked me to dinner and they are from the area and was GunHo on this place so I went. Well the service was amazing on this visit (could've been the company I kept since I was the only person who was ME in the group) and I shared my stance with the manager that evening and was assured that that would not be the case if I came back anytime in town. It took me a LONG TIME to go back but one my husband and children came in town again with me for work we went and things were okay. Our boys enjoyed their mac n cheese (that is the only thing they get) and the Mr. enjoyed his Chicken sandwich and I enjoyed my impossible burger. We decided to come back again and then another time and the food was consistent and the services as well. We even got a server who know us there now and know our orders and come with items before we can say it. I like it even more now with the plastic separators between the booths for COVID. It's a cool place in DT JC read more

Food and service was exceptional. I was in Johnson City staying after the Hurricane and decided on Label for my Birthday dinner based on the reviews. I tend to be picky but I had absolutely nothing to even remotely complain about. Potstickers for the appetizer were yummy. I had the ribeye, and the husband had the filet. Both were cooked perfectly and our side dishes were amazing. I had the Brussels and the mushrooms. Deserts were divine and probably had the best Dirty Martini in a long while. Highly recommend and be sure to make reservations as they filled up quickly. We definitely will make the trip back just to eat here again!! Loved everything about our experience. read more
