    Fried chicken, green beans, okra
    Craig Z.

    I'd like to start off and say how Grace was absolutely top notch, and made my decision to bump my visit to 4 stars. She was friendly, super attentive, and overall just in a great mood. This was my first time to Tennessee, and my first time trying southern food there. I'll try and break this down quickly. The restaurant was cool and super clean. The cornbread and okra were probably the worst I ever had. The cornbread had no sweetness or flavor at all, and the okra was just hard, cold and rubbery. The sautéed squash was ok, with no flavor or seasoning really. I really enjoyed the green beans though. The macaroni and cheese wasn't that great at all, and the grilled catfish was decent. Now for the star of the show, the fried chicken. It was absolutely terrific! The thin and crispy batter and the juiciest meat! Yummy! We took home three desserts. Cobbler a la mode, banana pudding and bread pudding. The cobbler was great, the banana pudding was awesome, but the bread pudding wasn't that good. It was very dense, and the vanilla sauce was missing. That might have helped it a bit. Overall, we had a great visit and the service was completely top notch! Thanks again Grace!

    Just wow! Excellent service! Sarah is awesome! The food is amazing! I haven't had a homemade meal this good in years!

    Great diner we like to stop at on Fridays to open the weekend. Right near to Kroger, convenient, and fast. Classic American staples along with weekly specials. Very much enjoy the pre-meal cornbread and biscuits, as well as the fried green tomatoes. We've been a few times and will be back again.

    Yummy! Local place in Bartlett that was very delish. Went with family to dine last night. Some of the best southern comfort food I have ever eaten. I had the beef liver and onions which brought back childhood memories for me. The mac and cheese was legit. Squash was a tad over cooked for me. My nephews ordered catfish, country fried steak and fish and chips. They enjoyed their meals as well. Everything was delicious. We were too full for dessert. Everyone was very nice and accommodating. Wes, our server was attentive, pleasant and helpful. Our food came out quickly and was hot. The restaurant is decorated with a variety of decor which reminds me of a country home. It is warm and comforting and feels just like home. The place is quite large and can seat several people. There is plenty of parking for patrons. I will come back to try other dishes at this local gem in Bartlett, TN.

    Allegedly Pot Roast
    Ana M.

    I will say, this place absolutely hates seasoning. Salt and pepper even. I ordered the catfish nuggets, pot roast, country fried chicken and there was absolutely nothing good about anything. The pot roast is so tough and flavorless. Not even the broth or carrots and potatoes have flavor. The French fries have nothing on them but my 3 year old like the catfish nuggets. Everything, even the country fried chicken tasted old as heck. I will never buy 80 dollars worth of food for my family from here again. I'm sure they're nice people and it's a nice place to be at but let's do better on cooking the food before we worry about service and ambiance. I am just very upset I can't be refunded.

    Catfish meal with mashed potatoes and broccoli.

    Went in at 12:30ish on a Sunday and the place was already crowded with people so there was a bit of a wait. The menu was a little exhaustive and it took some time to read through. I ordered the Sunday special and the person with me ordered catfish. I was disappointed with the Turkey and dressing (the dressing was crumbly and the was large chunks of dry meat). The gravy was served on the side but could not be poured on because it was like jelly. I was given a choice between tender cabbage and crispy cabbage). I chose crispy and immediately thought maybe I should have chosen tender. The cabbage tasted like it had been pan fried in burned butter. Though the waitress was friendly and attentive, I probably would not visit again.

    Fish and chips
    Elayna D.

    First visit was to go via Ubereats- I went in to place my order via ubereats (had ubercash to spend), but I went in so they could explain to me why I needed to select a side if the fish and chips meal states it comes with fries, hushpuppies, slaw, and tarter sauce? Anyway, the young man helped me with the order after I explained why I didn't want to order with him directly. No biggie, food was ready in about 15mins and no I did not find out why I still needed to "order" a side with the meal. I also ordered the peach cobbler that comes with ice cream. They were fairly busy with patrons and plenty to go orders. It is located next to Kroger on Kirby-Whitten/Stage. Great spot if you want a meat and veggies, the fish and chips were pretty basic, not my best decision when ordering food, the fries are sidewinder fries(not my favorite), slaw was bland and the tarter sauce tasted weird(tangy..not in a good way). I would not order fish and chips again and based on the menu I may come back for a veggie plate. As for now, 3 stars. The cobbler was not made that day, it smelled like it had been prepared a few days before, I warmed it up the next day and had the ice cream with it, definitely not made the day of ordering, but was ok.

    Gravy
    Gary T.

    Gravy/mushrooms tasted terrible and was cold. Texture like jelly. Turnip greens were sitting in a brown liquid... threw away. Caramelized cabbage... over cooked. Bad taste, threw out Pork chops were acceptable... Okra ok

    Southern food doesn't get any better than this!  Pop's Bow tie Spaghetti ,Turnip Greens ,Northern Beans & Hushpuppies.YUM

Seasoned well, lots of protein and the pasta was tender and well drenched with sauce. This was my first time at Smackers and I WILL be back again!! My family had the salmon club and grilled chicken club sandwiches and they were pleased with their meals as well! Customer Service: My brother-in-law and I arrived 30 minutes prior to closing and they were quite busy. The cashier was normally in the kitchen (from my understanding), but she handled the Christmas Eve crowd gracefully and didn't get unnerved. Ambiance: The ambiance was casual. It gives the vibes of a nicer deli (mainly due to the window display of cake slices that were available) but modern enough to bring a group of friends or family for a filling meal.

The honey hot were better than the regular hot which was bone dry and lacking flavor. However, my sliders were inedible. I bit into a single one and couldn't take any more bites. It tastes like a dirty grill and grease. That is it. Grill residue and grease. I went to try to see if maybe the second slider would be fine and even just upon smelling it, I couldn't take a bite. Drink was also completely flat. Overall, waste of money.

    I just have a couple of suggestions to help improve my next experience…read more We have eaten at McAlisters for many years and today was a big let down. They have changed the bread on the McAlisters club sandwich to a very thin style and are using less meat and other fillings. The sandwich is nothing like it used to be at all. Go back to using a decent bread to improve what used to be a great sandwich. Also, we used to brag about how great the sweet tea was, but recently it's been the worst part of our meal. It's very weak, almost water and it's hardly sweet at all. You need to go back to making the tea like you used to. Actually, install a drink station like the one in Wolfchase, it's always perfect. Overall, they make this location look bad on all accounts, we've never had a bad experience at Wolfchase. Please make improvements so we can enjoy the Bartlett location again.

    Edited to say the manager has reached out to me several times through email, which is much…read moreappreciated. Everyone has an off day. Should have paid attention to the 2 star review before I ordered. Got the Honey BBQ Nachos because they looked so good online! I get putting stuff on the side for to go orders, but when they aren't included, it's a problem. Here are pics of what I ordered and what I got. No rotel, no onions, no barbecue sauce...for barbecue nachos! And grayish chunks of pork, not pulled pork which works best for nachos! Complained online and someone replied with "I do apologize for any misunderstandings. When the nachos are ordered to go the sauces that would make the chips soggy are on the side for you to add when you are ready to indulge. I did check with the manager on duty this evening and he confirmed the sauce and dips are on the side. Maybe come try them eat in style and you will then see them as the picture looks." So apparently it was my fault for not dining in or not knowing how to put together nachos with missing ingredients, not the managers fault because he confirmed they were there. Right.
