Irish Point oysters are absolutely outstanding. From the moment they are served, you can tell they are fresh and carefully selected. Each oyster has a beautiful deep shell filled with clean, briny liquor that captures the true taste of the ocean. The flavor is perfectly balanced with a crisp saltiness followed by a smooth, slightly sweet finish that makes you want another one immediately. The texture is firm yet delicate, making them incredibly satisfying to eat. Whether enjoyed on their own, with a squeeze of lemon, or a light mignonette, these oysters truly shine. Irish Point oysters deliver a fresh, refined seafood experience and are easily some of the best oysters you can have. Highly recommended. read more

You're definitely paying for the scenery because the food was underwhelming. We ordered six items, and three out of the six lacked flavor. The gumbo tasted like canned chili. The stuffed mushrooms did not taste fresh and also lacked flavor. The calamari lacked flavor as well and was a big disappointment. The server was nice and set our expectations, advising that some of the items we ordered were more of an acquired taste, but we were still disappointed. There was a server change at one point, and the new server was not careful when delivering the food and spilled the gumbo upon arrival. Considering the price and value, this place is definitely a one and done. read more

Usually restaurants are known for the food or the view, not both. Scottie's for lunch offered both as well as excellent service! $10 for a cup of gumbo seemed high, but it was well worth it for the deliciousness I received. Deep, complex flavor, smoky and full of shrimp, okra and sausage with just the right amount of rice. Accompanied by a well-dressed side Caesar (the dressing oozed with garlic flavor and just a hint of anchovy) with perfectly crisp Romaine lettuce. This was a simple meal, elevated. Can't wait to return! read more

Found Scottie's on the River while looking for waterfront dining in Chattanooga. The restaurant had very limited parking and quite a long wait, despite a fairly open dining area. The people managing the front did not appear to have the process very organized so we waited a bit for. Table after 2:30 in the afternoon. Once seated, our waiter was very attentive and food was served quickly. We ordered wedge salads, fish and chip and chicken Marsala. The salads and fish were very good, but the chicken Marsala was not my favorite. It is served "airline style" as my waiter put it (wing attached to chicken breast). Overall, the food and service were good. Would have given it five stars if not for the check-in process and wait. Ate by the water and enjoyed the view. read more

The outside seating was perfect! There were 3-5 tables with their dogs at any given time. This is a very dog friendly restaurant. Seeing the server bring food out and bowls of water for dogs was ... different. Moving on. The food was shrimp salad was very fresh and flavorful- definitely recommend! I could eat the spinach crawfish dip and naan by the bucket. Order. This. lol! read more

Scotties On The River was great. The spot right on the Tennessee River is relaxed and pretty. Our server was friendly, explained the menu, and their suggestions were perfect. I ordered the shrimp with Brussels sprouts with pork belly. I loved the seasoning on the shrimp My sister had the salmon, cooked just right and very tasty. A friend went with a fresh fish that was sensational. The food is very well made, the chef deserves congratulations. I highly recommend going there to try the food, and the prices are very good. read more

My husband and I spent 4 nights in Chattanooga when we were visiting from Winston-Salem, NC. We ate dinner 2 nights at Scottie's and both times were fabulous. The first night Luke was our server and he was knowledgeable about the menu and very friendly. He made some great suggestions. Our entrees and my cocktail were great. A few nights later we had Kim as our server. They don't serve a Riesling wine so she went out of her way to make sure I had a wine I would enjoy. Totally above and beyond what she could have done. Loved her! We also stopped in one night for dessert. Everything we had there was wonderful! It's on the river and their covered outdoor space was gorgeous. Totally recommend this place. read more

We visited today for the first time and had dinner, drinks and dessert on the patio. Our server, Luke, was warm and knowledgeable. I had the blueberry mojito and my wife had madam president for drinks - we'd order both again in a heartbeat. For dinner, we had the chop marsala and the black and bleu steak salad respectively. We enjoyed both and had leftovers to bring home. Our desserts were decadent: the crème brûlée and coconut cheesecake. The only thing that could have added to this experience was a nice view, and we even got that! Scottie's is located right in the river and we were able to take a walk along the river after. There was ample parking (pay by app; cost was about $7 for 3 hours) and the prices were fair. We'll be back! read more

Probably the worst fish and chips i've ever had. The restaurant is in a cool location, that's about it. Service is not great. Would not recommend. read more

Decent place but very irked that they added 18% tip to a party of 5 without informing us. I will NOT return! And you have to pay to park.

This place is amazing! Right in the river. I see and outside seating. Can eat at the bar. TVs for sports viewing. Winner was the dinner. The pork chop with Marsala mushrooms with pimento mashed potatoes couldn't have been better. Omg! Bonus- awesome fellow Hoosier waiter to help us celebrate win over Oregon! read more

Scottie on the river next to the Marriott was the perfect stay for a quick visit. The drink selection and food items were excellent. Nice view for a group by the river. Our waitress was excellent and attentive. The drinks were delicious. The passion fruit margarita was my favorite. Calamari's were light batter and does not come with marinara sauce. But I still think they should add some sort of dipping sauce. I enjoyed all my breads and entrees here. read more

Great vibes outside, immediate seating with open seating for outdoor spots, no bugs seen just heard. We couldn't see the sunset from the angle of the patio, but the vibes were high regardless. The food was great - our waiter had lovely recs and even brought us free hush puppies! So sweet! The steak salad is perfect, especially paired with a side of seasonal cherry ribs and a glass of sauvy b. Perfect spot for a nice summer night out!! read more

Had a great lunch on the water at Scottie's. We sat outside on a beautiful day. Our server was Gracie and she was one of the best servers we have ever had. We started with some Not Your Ordinary Cheese Balls which are fried pimento cheese balls coated with sriracha honey glaze. They were delicious. I had the blackened salmon and broccoli and my wife had the Florentine Chicken. My salmon was cooked perfectly and was so light and flaky. The chicken was delicious and packed with flavor. I highly recommend stopping by Scottie's if in the Chattanooga riverfront area. read more

I had five star service at this beautiful restaurant right off the river, hence the name. Kayleigh contributes to this wonderful service making our experience a delightful one. Kayleigh was knowledgeable of the beer menu and was able to suggest just the right beers for our pallets. We led with Oysters Rockefeller which was fresh delicious. I also had a cup of She Crab Soup, some of the best I've ever had. I also enjed the Brussel Sprouts. This is a lovely placw to come and hang out and have great food. read more

What a fabulous New Year's Day lunch! Gracie, our server was super informative and on point with amazing service. My husband started with the she crab soup and went onto the lobster Reuben and enjoyed both immensely. I did the oyster special and tried three northern oysters for only a dollar each on Thursday and they were just great. I followed this with the potato crusted pan seared trout- it was exactly what I was looking for and delicious! read more

Picked this restaurant because we wanted to have lunch with a view. The view was great but the food was just OK. The service was worse. Our server Zack did not appear to be having a good day. He wasn't friendly or pleasant - both skills I expect from those who choose hospitality. Our soup was lukewarm and the server seemed put out by fixing it. After being obviously heated in the microwave, it was delicious. (But Zack still seemed just as put out when he brought the soup back, which always makes me nervous.) My first and last time here. If the management doesn't see its staff attitude as a problem, there are plenty of other riverfront restaurants I can visit. read more

Had a great time at Scottie's after a long, hot and humid walk on the river walk. Took some friends there that had not been before. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The day we went they had $1 oysters and of course I had to partake! Their wedge salad is wonderful and the staff and our waiter (maybe Kyle ‍) was amazing. Everyone said they are coming back with their husbands lol read more

The atmosphere on the river was great as well as the service. My meal was really delicious as well, though a couple of the shrimp needed a bit of extra cleaning. Other than that, this was a perfect dinner for one while I was on a work trip. A cute older couple nearby was celebrating an anniversary and they were treated so well by the staff, also. Great place no matter what the occasion! read more

Restaurant was cold and the hostess and server were not very pleasant. I am a Mississippi girl so was surprised to see Mississippi catfish on the menu!!

First time I've ever sent back food. Got the blackened mahi poboy. It tasted old despite it being "fresh." They handled it well. Took it off the bill. Server was understanding. View is ok. Food is mid at best read more

I'll admit I'm a little skeptical of restaurants that are attached to chain hotels (in this case a Springhill Suites). But the location and menu looked good, so we decided to take a chance. And we were glad we did! Not only is the the location along the Tennessee River, near Ross' Landing and the aquarium, a great place to enjoy a meal with a view (especially on a pretty day), but the food and service are excellent as well. We were having a late lunch so opted for sandwiches, although the entree selection was tempting, too. This is the only place I've ever seen mahi offered in a po boy sandwich (it's almost always catfish or shrimp), so I had to go for that. There was a really good sized serving of the fish, blackened and very nicely grilled, served in the traditional po boy format on a grilled hoagie bun with tomatoes, lettuce and banana peppers, and topped with an outstanding remoulade-like sauce (a chipotle aioli). We also had the FABB sandwich, which is fried green tomatoes, charred avocados, banana peppers and candied bacon with firecracker sauce. The whole sandwich was great as a novel twist on a BLT, although the candied bacon stood out even more for pulling it all together. Both sandwiches came with fries, which were good but made even better by their dipping sauces. If you like cocktails, try their blueberry mojito. The service here friendly, helpful and timely. Great location, food and service make this an excellent choice when in downtown Chattanooga. read more

Had an amazing meal at Scottie's on the River! I started with a dozen oysters--super fresh and full of flavor--then had a wedge salad and the firecracker shrimp. Everything was absolutely delicious and perfectly prepared. The portions were generous too, which is always a bonus. Others in our group got the fish and chips and raved about them. The fish was fried just right--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside--and the house salad was fresh and plentiful. On top of the great food, the view is spectacular. Sitting right on the Tennessee River made the whole experience even better. Great atmosphere, friendly service, and a perfect spot to enjoy an evening. I'll definitely be back! read more

I'm surprised this place doesn't have five stars. Their oysters are never frozen, and are incredibly fresh. The FAAB was amazing! Perfect combination of flavors that falls apart in your mouth. The ambiance is super relaxed and very group friendly. I love that dogs are allowed inside. Oh, did I mentioned it's women owned and operated? Flawlessly, I might add. Dog friendly. Kid friendly.

The view of the river was beautiful and the food was delicious. I had sole with Brussels sprouts and broccolini and my friend had the mussels with French fries (it seemed like a strange combination, but we were told it was a French dish. Either way, the sauce on the mussels turned out to be a great dipping sauce for the fries so my friend really enjoyed it.) Our server told us the calamari appetizer was delicious so we ordered that as a starter. He was right - it was fantastic! read more

Not my favorite environment. Loud music, drunk people, even a girl dancing on the table. Couldn't have a conversation because of how loud it was. Thankfully the live music stopped half way through our visit. Why did we stay? Because we had already paid for parking and all our friends with kids were already there and we just wanted to grab some food and feed the kids before the game. Food was ok. Took a long time to arrive. The hush puppies weren't too good, too oily. Just not for me. Visited in June 2024, maybe things have changed, maybe it's better. Maybe we went in a bad day. read more
