We ate there on December 26th. We were celebrating 2 birthdays…read more We could not have picked a better place! It was my inaugural visit but it will not be my last. From the time we were greeted at the door until we returned to our cars to go home was festive, warm and delicious. We had as our appetizer the flambé cheese, truly as much fun to watch being prepared as it is to eat, with the fig jam the perfect salty sweet bite! Destiny, was our waitress and she did everything possible to spoil the birthday girls! Thank you Destiny, you were awesome. Our entrees were Strawberry Spinch salad, I added grilled chicken. It is served with a strawberry vinaigrette. The birthday girls got the flash fried shrimp. The shrimp was not heavily covered in breading and the perfect Carmel color. One had a side of fries, the other had the potatoe trio. Seriously you could not go wrong with either option! Beautiful brown skin on French fries or the baby potato's baked and shredded melted cheese on top. Fork tender and delicious. The restaurant is over the top decorated for Christmas, the drinks are served in different holiday drinkware. We had sprite in a grinch cup, coffee in a Christmas tree mug and sweet tea in a gingerbread nutcracker glass. It was such a fun experience!

I'm going to do a 2 part review on this one. So I tried The Burgers in Lenoir City for the first…read moretime and in a total coincidence, friends took me to the other location in Powell the very next day. What are the odds?? In Lenoir City, with such a clever restaurant name, I had to try the burger. I ordered the Knox Burger, which has Swiss cheese, Mayo, pickles, caramelized onions, and mushrooms. I thought the patty was substantial and very well seasoned and I loved the light, fresh bun. However, there was so much grease it ended up being the soup I never ordered. I enjoyed the side bean salad even though there was a very strong raw onion feel to it. Solid burger overall!

Tonight, my hubby and I each had the "blackened" tilapia with 2 sides. (More like Cajun seasoning, but still really good). As a storm was rolling in, I opted for an after dinner drink (not on the menu, but, oh, SO good!!!) chocolate martini. Just one more reason to love this place!

People need to realize this is a Marina with a restaurant and store. The place is way out as they…read moresay in the south "in the country"! They have customer WiFi but it doesn't work so your cell service is very limited and that is very aggravating. Searching WiFi and it says they have it for customers. Click on it and it isn't available. Restaurant was recently remodeled and has both indoor and outdoor seating. The service was good. Our young waitress did a great job and checked on us a number of times. The food wasn't over the top like I expected. The restaurant was out of many things on the menu which included salad dressing. My wife got the salmon and baked potato and said the salmon was just ok. I could tell the baked potato was heated in a microwave and my wife said it wasn't completely cooked. I got the bacon burger and home fries. The burger had two small pieces of bacon and they give you a pack of mayo. The patty was a frozen patty and I expected the bun to be toasted and it wasn't. I love a good bacon burger and give this burger a 4 out of 10 score. The home fries were from a bag and heated, not really that good either. We sat on the deck overlooking the water and marina. That was the best part of the whole visit

The parking stalls are…read moreparallel to the road and there is a wide paved area between the restaurant and the road, so it is easy to pull into the stall. There are also stalls on the back side of the building. There is one ordering sign between each pair of stalls, so you make sure you are on the correct side if you do not have passenger. The menu is pretty extensive. There are several burger options along with hot dogs and chicken sandwiches. The prices are very good, especially for the baskets which include fries. Oh, and they only take cash so make sure you stop at the ATM before you drop by. When you are ready to order, push the green button. The server answered immediately and read back out order afterwards. Our food came out in about ten minutes. It was served in a bag with lots of ketchup packets as well as some salt packets. There was only one carhop and she was quite busy but greeted us with a smile and made sure we had all we needed. Unfortunately, both burgers were average at best. The double cheeseburger had two thin meat patties which had little to no taste. The veggies were fresh and crisp and the bun was fresh and soft, but the meat simply did not add anything to the sandwich. The Carl's Fat burger was no different. The meat patty was thicker but really did not have much taste. The curly fries and regular fries were pretty good. Both were hot, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. While they were certainly busy and seem to have a large local following, the burgers were a disappointment. This would be a place to stop for fries, and the milkshakes sounded delicious.
