Everyone come to town to visit my wife's family we go to J's. It's a true hole in the wall with…read morehardly a place to eat inside but who cares we take it home and love it. What I appreciate is that J's has its own distinctive taste In the barbecued meat and baked beans. I am not sure whether it's Memphis or TN or whatever but it is fabulous. French fries perfect, salad was fresh but could have used more toppings ie not enough onion and tomato. Corn dog was a splurge but it was good as well. Prices are extremely reasonable and I like it's a short drive from our home here in precious E-Town. I also like that they have friendly people working there who are patient and helpful. I wish they would go to online ordering but hey I can live without it. You know a place is good when BBQ places in Johnson City say "compared " to J's Highly recommended or

We were warmly greeted when we came into the restaurant. It was very tastefully decorated, light and airy, and all of the servers were dressed in white shirts and black pants and vests. Our server was excellent, and funny. After he took our order, he assured us he would be back in an hour. We were served warm tortilla chips and bean dip. The salsa bar boasted of several house-made salsas and sauces, and I tried the standard, the tomatillo, and the avocado sauce. All three were excellent. My margarita came out with a bushel of various fruits on top, and was delicious and refreshing to the very last drop. I can't be sure, but it tasted hand-crafted and not from a mix. For dinner I had Pollo Fundido and it was excellent.Cooked to perfection, generous with the cheese sauce, and served sizzling hot. My husband had a fajita quesadilla. Both of us had far more food than we could eat and were only disappointed that we did not have room for the several excellent desserts on the menu. Love this place! We will be back!!

Stopped in today to see this place that was supposed to have awesome hamburgers and chicken…read more Boy, they did not disappoint! The hamburger I had was mouthwatering with the all fixings on it! It came with a side of fries and a drink. The hamburger was soooo good, that I will come back have the same order! The fries were nice and crispy too! The service was top notch as the waitress kept refilling my drink and checking up on me. The place is so cute inside with many small tables you can eat your meal. I love this place! One thing to note, the menu prices are based on cash. They do take credit cards but there is a surcharge in using them. I will definitely be coming back!

Sycamore Drive-In is Carter's County's ultimate diamond in the rough. If you don't know what you…read moreare looking for, you might drive right past it. The once-thriving area of downtown Elizabethton occupied by the Sycamore has fallen to pieces in recent years, but the classic restaurant remains. The former walk-up counter has been closed in with a few tables added, though the main business is take-out orders from locals on their lunch break or looking for an affordable dinner. The menu is general "burger joint" fare with a pretty large selection ranging from bologna sandwiches to chicken tenders, with sides including fries and mozzarella sticks. But the absolute stars of the menu are the burgers. Sycamore's patties are almost literally melt-in-your-mouth fare, juicy but not especially greasy. I like mine plain but ask about some of their specialty "off-menu" offerings to see how creative this hometown eatery can get with an American classic. One thing I have noticed about the food is that it is rarely too salty, likely owing to their attention to the needs of their clientele, many of whom are older folks who have been eating there for decades. That's a welcome change from normal fast-food fare. And speaking of fast food, Sycamore's prices easily beat similar fare in town. A regular cheeseburger will run you just $3.25, with a huge double cheeseburger coming in at $4.25. You can easily feed a family of four here for under $20.00 and be full. Don't let the old-timey exterior and the seemingly out-of-place location deter you: Sycamore Drive-In is truly a local gem in Elizabethton.
