I ordered the Nashville medium chicken, but it appeared to be missing the sauce. When I brought…read morethis to the staff's attention, I was told I was wrong and that the chicken already had sauce on it. I was then given sauce on the side. After comparing it with my chicken, I asked someone else whether my order had actually been sauced. At that point, I was told to lower my voice and "chill out," even though I felt I was speaking calmly and simply asking a question. Missing sauce is an easy mistake to fix. The dismissive response and the way I was spoken to made this a frustrating experience. I would appreciate management reaching out to discuss what happened.

Visiting Farmacy for date night was a special treat. Parking is limited out front, but there are…read moreplenty of spots behind the building or in adjacent lots. We had a reservation and were seated quickly at a cute table for two. Unbeknownst to us, it was taco Tuesday, suggesting $3 tacos of various proteins. We ordered three as an appetizer and were amazed by how tasty they were. Don't skip the tofu- that was our surprise favorite. My wife ordered the pork belly and I, the enlightened bowl. The pork belly was incredible- the best we've ever had. Tender, soft, rich, and a generous portion. Plenty of leftovers there. My enlightened bowl felt extremely healthy and fresh. I felt like a horse in a pasture. I stole many bites of pork. I might suggest adding a protein besides the salmon crumbles (it comes with those, but think tuna packet texture). Overall, we had a fantastic experience at Farmacy and look forward to our next visit.

High Hopes, Flat Landing…read more I'd had this place bookmarked for ages, and when out-of-town friends came for brunch, I thought, "finally, my chance!" Lesson learned: scope it out solo before bringing guests. We all left underwhelmed, and honestly, I was disappointed. Let's start with the good: it's an adorable spot, the service was stellar, and the cocktails were genuinely great. But the food? A real miss for me. I'd consider giving it another shot -- just not with the same order, or at least with some specific requests in hand. We kicked things off with beignets, which, in hindsight, was a bold move in Tennessee. As NOLA regulars, we know our beignets, and these weren't even in the same ballpark as Café du Monde. Instead of that light, pillowy pull-apart texture, they came out dense and crispy -- more funnel cake than beignet. The breakfast mains were a visual triumph and a textural letdown. I tried all three dishes, and my fellow diners agreed across the board. The "Sunny" had great flavor on top, but the bread underneath turned to mush almost instantly -- we ended up scraping the toppings off and eating it like a salad. If you order this, ask for the bread toasted. The biscuits and gravy had real potential, but the candied bacon overwhelmed everything with sweetness -- it completely took over the dish and made it hard to finish. Dave's eggs were fine on their own, but the hash alongside them wasn't much to look at, and the flavor didn't redeem the presentation.

I loved the vibe of Tupelo, the hanging lush green plants on the side of the bustling kitchen, the cheerful staff and the lively music. Lizette was our server and she was just a darling. It was our first time here, and she was so helpful with her all of her recommendations. One of Lizette's favorites was the "Peach, don't kill my vibe" sangria. Which I just loved. I nice mix of peach and pineapple in a sangria. For our mains, we had the grilled harvest chicken and the chicken tenders. Both mains came with two sides. With my grilled harvest chicken, I got the mashed potatoes and the braised bacon green beans. The green beans were to die for, even my hubby was saying he should've ordered that as his side. The harvest chicken I loved--especially the sautéed spinach, red peppers and tomatoes on top. But if you can't handle spicy, this dish does have some heat to it. And we ended my birthday celebration with the heavenly banana pudding. It was heavenly in every way. Made in house, and so delicious that even my hubby ate it and he never cares for this dessert. If I could've licked that little bowl, I would've. We already cannot wait to come back and try some of the brunch items on their menu. We loved everything about Tupelo and hats off to Lizette for making our night even more special!!

We ordered the fried chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries, grilled chicken sandwich with avocado, 3-piece chicken tenders and kids chicken and fries.

This is the place that officially made me a fried chicken fan -- and no fried chicken has ever come close to Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken! Address: 126 Lovell Rd, Farragut, TN 37934 Food: 6/5 My go-to meal is the 3-piece Chicken Tenders with French Fries and Baked Beans, with an added Chicken Breast. Gus's chicken is the best fried chicken I have ever had. It's perfectly cooked with an incredible crunch on the outside, while staying moist and juicy on the inside. The spices are absolutely delicious! I've been here over 15 times, and the consistency has always been amazing every single visit. The baked beans are also the best I've ever had. The French fries are seasoned perfectly with a great crunch while still having a fluffy texture inside. ‍Service: 6/5 The service at Gus's is top tier. Every server treats each table like they're the most important customers in the building. Special shoutout to Daisy -- the last few times I've visited, she has been my server, and she remembers me every time. She even knows my order by heart now! She is genuinely one of the nicest and best servers I've ever had at any restaurant. Atmosphere: 5/5 I absolutely love the vibes at Gus's. I always feel right at home whenever I walk in. The design and menu perfectly match the restaurant's personality, and the place is always clean with plenty of comfortable seating. Value: 5/5 The prices and portions are both an A+ for me. I ordered extra food this time, but you can easily get a fantastic and affordable meal here. Final Thoughts I absolutely love Gus's, and it will forever be one of my go-to spots before going to a movie. This is some of the best fried chicken you will ever have -- if not #1, then easily Top 3 of all time. Bring your family, let Daisy take care of you, and enjoy an incredible meal!
