Experience Through Their Eyes

I left here hoping that the staff is celebrated for being as wonderful as they are. I took the elevator down with a member of the kitchen staff and he was just as pleasant and courteous as the front of house, when nobody was looking or listening. It's consistent and that's so rare. I have yet to leave the hotel for a meal because I know that I'll have decent food served by a wildly courteous staff bright downstairs. Many thanks to them all.

I recently had to get to the airport ahead of a winter storm for fear the road conditions would deteriorate. So, this place was my primary food source for a couple of days. I was served and greeted by Abby and two different Brittanys, I believe, as well as a host of other ladies, whose names I didn't get, during my stay. They embodied southern hospitality, checking on me regularly with smiles and kind words. Each one of the dishes were delicious, the salad bar and adjacent buffet were kept neat and clean, and I even ordered room service once. Pace yourself and save room for dessert, as the portions are rather generous. Prices were fairly reasonable for the items I ordered. Excellent experience all around!

We stayed at the hotel after a late flight before continuing on to our holiday. We were more than a little peckish after flying from the UK to Atlanta, then on to Knoxville and were very happy to see that the restaurant was still open. The food was so good that we made sure to stop back in for breakfast the following morning where I had my first ever biscuits and gravy! The food and salad bar in the evening were a delight, but the breakfast buffet was something else. There was a little something for everyone, and you will definitely not leave hungry. A well deserved five stars, and I would stay at the hotel again just for the food!

My wife and I had a bit of a long wait for some family that was coming in after us. We did not have hotel reservations but the staff not only in the restaurant but also the hotel was extremely friendly and nice. Allowing us to have an amazing meal and a place to relax while we waited. Allowing us that being said, I would especially like to thank our waiter. He was extremely patient and friendly with us. If I could give more stars than 5 I would.

After an unfortunate accident during my drive from California to Philadelphia, I became stranded in Knoxville waiting for my flight for 2 days. My was low and I had my cat with me. The staff was very understanding and hospitable. They offered milk for my ,and allowed me to eat and relax until my flight without equivocation. The food was delicious and the bartenders were awesome. I literally would fly back here just to eat...lol This was an gr8 experience for someone who has never been to Tennessee.
