I don't mind waiting a little while for my order if they are busy. My only disappointment is that they are closed on Sundays because that is the best day to relax with a frozen dessert.

This place is BEAUTIFUL! We took so many pictures both inside and outside because there are so many…read morepretty spots. Definitely come ready to take some photos. Spinach Artichoke Dip - This was actually really good! The pita was crunchy on the outside but still fluffy, and the dip was creamy and flavorful. Definitely a good appetizer to share. Half Rack of Ribs - Delicious! The meat came off the bone so smoothly and was really tender. My only complaint was that I couldn't substitute the side dishes. I had to get baked beans, and I HATE beans. Luckily, my boyfriend's meal also came with a side, so he gave me his mashed potatoes and ate the beans--which he said were delicious. The mashed potatoes were lovely, so I was definitely happy with that trade. We came with a HUGE party, and I was really impressed with how smoothly everything went. Everyone received the correct order, and they split the bill without us even having to ask. They had no problem accommodating such a large group, which I really appreciated. Overall, this is a beautiful restaurant with great food and excellent service. We had a really good experience, and we'll definitely be coming back the next time we're in Tennessee!

This was our first experience at Aspire. We had driven by a few times on the way to Norris Lake,…read morebut we were finally in town (not in our swim gear), so we decided to check it out (knowing NOTHING about this place). We were in T-shirts and jeans, so not fancy at all, but while the space itself presented as "fine dining", the vibe was casual and welcoming. We didn't feel out of place at all, and as the after-work crowd started showing up, there was a wide variety of guests. And honestly - after understanding why this place was built- it seems that's exactly how they want it. All welcome. But don't get me wrong - casual dress or not - this place spared no expense! It's a beautiful building, and you have an outstanding view from any seat in the house! The bathrooms are even gorgeous! After exploring all the seating areas, we opted to sit at the bar. Brandon was our mixologist that day, and he was really great! All of our cocktails (The Jade Martini, The Tulip) were well made, and the off-menu cocktails he whipped up were equally as good. Love when they want to get creative. He had good recommendations for food. He was also training someone new and had a great attitude toward them, which was nice to see. Food (Ribs, Pork Chop, Salad, Soup) was all good. I'd get any of them again. And those Boursin mashed potatoes ... addictive. We even tried dessert (Strawberry shortcake). I was hoping for a more delicate, airy shortcake, but overall it was decent, but I'll try something else next time. I felt everything was priced fairly and was comparable to other places in Oak Ridge offering less desirable dishes. So we will be back for sure! I'm excited to know there is 22 miles of hiking trails and pups are welcome on the patio! Sounds like a post-hike win-win there! Plus, they have some live music nights I think we'd like to check out! Overall, super happy this place is here! I hope the next visit is just as good!.

In the past the serving staff has not been the warmest or friendliest (we've eaten here dozens of times) and I'm not sure if we're just regulars now and they're nicer or if they've heard the feedback from others and made a concerted effort to rectify things. Either way - really solid little cheeseburger and while I'd love to try their daily specials that I hear everyone rave about I can't pull myself away from a standard cheeseburger and seasoned fries.

Even though it wasn't a huge amount, it would've been nice to have been informed before fulfilling the order.

LOVE that there's finally another ice cream spot downtown, more accessible on the Old City side…read more This spot is awesome. The owners are incredible people- they also own Seoul Brothers across the way inside Marble City Market. Their ice cream is locally made ''super premium" because of the quality of ingredients they use. I love the flavors- honeydew is so refreshing and unique. Tastes like melona! The best thing though??? The CHERRY it's sooo much better than the basic red maraschino, you'll never want to go back to it after this cherry. Their ingredients, sauces, toppings, sodas, everything is so thoughtfully curated. All the menu items are named after family, significant events and meaningful things for the owners and I just think that's so cute. Love this spot.

I've been to this sweet spot twice now and it is impressive with both the unique menu selection and…read morethe super thoughtful intent behind the treat creation (a blend of the sibling co-owners' Korean heritage and TN upbringing). I also LOVE that they use local vendors for their ingredients and partner with other MCM booths and neighboring small businesses to fabulously collaborate. I have gotten sundaes both times and there are unique toppings that they layer so that you don't have a bite without a fun and tasty texture. I can't say enough good things about this shop and it's ownership.
