If you're looking for a local restaurant that truly has it all, this is the place! From the moment…read moreyou walk in, you can tell they take pride in serving fresh, high-quality food. The pizzas are absolutely incredible with perfectly cooked crusts and generous toppings. The wings are some of the best I've ever had--crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The burgers are out of this world, juicy and packed with flavor, and the salads are always fresh, crisp, and loaded with ingredients. Their sandwiches are HUGE and made fresh to order, making them a great value and guaranteed to leave you satisfied. What makes this place even more special is that it's a hometown, locally owned restaurant that genuinely cares about its customers. The service is friendly, the atmosphere is welcoming, and every meal feels like it was made with care. It's the kind of place you'll find yourself coming back to again and again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing food and outstanding service. Support local--you won't be disappointed!

My friend had the stuffed baked potato which was like two meals. I had the pork sandwich, which was good but not wow. We ended up coming back the next day also! I forget what we had the second time, but I remember we enjoyed it. Parking tip, the lot for the incline is a short walk away and you can avoid the crowded little parking lot for a few bux. Worth the visit!

The service was good overall, the staff was very attentive. The portion sizes were excellent, but the food itself, just average. The smoke was too light for my liking, the sides just average, and I cannot believe there weren't even greens offered. Their take on chicken was interesting, it was a sliced breast as opposed to the traditional pulled chicken. The children were even less receptive to the food offerings than I was, just an eh experience.

The team was incredibly welcoming and shared that they're part of the same restaurant group behind Easy Bistro and Little Coyote, which immediately raised my expectations--and they delivered. For our picnic, we were sent off with a fantastic selection of cured meats accompanied by mustard and giardiniera. The combination of savory meats, tangy mustard, and the bright kick from the giardiniera created the perfect balance of flavors. I love businesses that take simple ingredients and execute them exceptionally well, and Main Street Meats does exactly that. Whether you're building a charcuterie board, grabbing lunch, or looking for quality meats to take home, this place deserves a visit.

Absolutely amazing. This was a standout steak dinner…read more Ordered the Niman ribeye and filet. We preferred the ribeye but both were so delicious, the ribeye just had than extra oomph for us. We subbed mashed potatoes for cut fries and broccoli and this was the way to go! The broccoli was so delicious, I love the char taste + Parmesan. We had two glasses of wine and finished off the meal with their chocolate gelato. I'll be raving about this meal to anyone who chooses to visit Chattanooga. Very great service, indoor and outdoor seating, and no wait (waitlist available if there is).

Some places allow dogs. State of Confusion feels like it was designed for them…read more During our Chattanooga trip, we ended up coming back more than once because it checked every box: great food, a massive outdoor patio, and a setup that makes dining with a dog easy and comfortable. Dogs aren't allowed inside unless they're service animals, but honestly, the outdoor space is where you want to be anyway. The patio is huge, with covered sections and outdoor heaters that kept us comfortable even when the weather turned rainy. We visited on a wet day and never felt like we were settling for "the dog section." The food was consistently excellent, and the happy hour menu made it an easy choice for a casual meal or drinks. My humans were happy with their food, and I was thrilled when they ordered me a side of chicken. It disappeared almost immediately, which I consider the highest possible review. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between lively and relaxed. There is plenty of room to spread out, and the outdoor space feels welcoming rather than crowded. Dogba's verdict: Great food, a fantastic patio, weather-proof outdoor seating, and chicken that disappeared faster than anyone expects

Order at the counter and find a table to dine at. All the tables are outside. Great views everywhere you look. Purchased Catfish tacos to share with my fabulous bride. It was pricey, but it was quite tasty. Actually, everything on the menu was pricey. Guess it is to be expected at a touristy place with awesome views. Make sure you clean up after yourselves. Don't want any trash flying away. Rock City Gardens and Lookout Mountain is too lovely a place to allow trash to ruin its beauty.

The views you get to enjoy from your dining table are hard to match unless you are at a ski resort or other mountaintop establishment. Rock City is on Lookout Mountain so as far as I know this might be the only place in the world where you can look out over 7 states as you eat and drink so that is worthy of having a beer and some food at this establishment at least once in your life.

The wife,…read moreAnna, stated "if you want a good cup of coffee and an excellent pastry, this is your morning stop!" Even a little after 10am on a Saturday, you can tell this place is a very popular hangout. I waited in line for about 10 minutes, but the line moves fast. I concur with other reviewers that the staff is so friendly, helpful and energetic. I ordered a Cafe Au Lait with a shot of caramel syrup. Once I looked at the pastry items, I knew the Blueberry Lavender scone had my name all over it! I sat outside on a sidewalk bistro table and enjoyed both items immensely on a gorgeous Chattanooga morning. This place also has inside seating as well as a nice patio setup. So happy I got to experience this place! (P.S. The line is still out the door when I left!) :)

You enter into a broad space with merchandise and tables with a counter of breads and dessert…read moretreats. The idea is to order and pay at the counter and to receive a number for your table. We didn't know and went straight to outdoor seating, which worked out because we got a table and about a minute later we figured out the ordering process. I ordered the chicken salad croissant for my wife, then the California club for myself and then I had to order quiche Lorraine for the table. I had filtered tap water for my drink and my wife had a can of Diet Coke with a slice of lemon and ice in a cup, provided. Service was pretty quick, between our order placement and table delivery it was 7 minutes. The quiche was custardy inside with a delicious hint of caramelized shallots to go with the bacon and cheese/egg filling. The bacon did not overwhelm. The crust was perfectly baked and a nice flakey crust. The accompanying arugula and onion salad dresses with oil and vinegar and seasonings was an excellent pairing of freshness with the richer quiche. This is a big hit, as expected when advertised on the menu as "available until sold out." The California Club was on 6 grain toasted bread with an avocado spread and aioli, bacon, turkey, tomato and lettuce. I really liked the balance of each component in this sandwich, such that nothing dominated the flavors and each distinctive was individually identifiable in the contribution to the whole sandwich. The portion was just right. The chicken salad was also good, but was the bronze medal winner compared to the other two. The croissant was flaky, but not too much. The chicken salad had just a hint of lemon and was not overwhelmed with aioli, just the right balance. This was a fantastic meal. We liked this so much, we chose to buy two loaves of bread to go, a Chattanooga Sourdough and a garlic Parmesan and also a 5 lb bag of in house ground bread flour. I need one of these in Greenville, SC, my hometown. Last thing to note, you bus your own table and there is a dish basin nearby the outside dining area in which to place your dishes. This was an excellent lunch spot. The staff were also friendly and patiently helpful. This is a must visit spot when visiting or living in Chattanooga!

We had heard of Kenny's from our neighbor but hadn't taken the time to try. What a happy accident! It wasn't busy, due to the weather so we found a seat right away. We were greeted almost immediately and had coffee within minutes, which is crucial! ;-) our waiter was super friendly and was very helpful with comments and suggestions when we told him it was our first time. I ordered the croque madame and my wife ordered the EC Sammy with egg whites, bacon, and cheese on a biscuit. We split them. Both were excellent but I think the next time we'd just split the croque madame! It is a very big sandwich! So the food was great overall but as I alluded in the beginning the service was what makes this a 5-star rating! We will go again.

I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup, and it absolutely hit the spot. The sandwich was loaded with gooey melted cheese and had an epic cheese pull that every grilled cheese lover dreams about. Paired with the rich, comforting tomato soup, it was the ultimate rainy-day meal. The food came out quickly, and everything was hot and delicious. As a sweet surprise, they brought me complimentary birthday beignets with strawberry sauce. They were light, fluffy, and the strawberry sauce was the perfect finishing touch. Great food, fast service, and a thoughtful birthday treat made for a wonderful experience. I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in Chattanooga.
