10 Best Knoxville Dining Experiences.

[MontereyVol]

Where is the best bar scene? I haven't been up there in over a decade when the Old City was just starting to get business.

market square/gay street or the old city (that's assuming you're older than your mid-20s).

Mid 30's, I still cant get over Market Square being the place to go, last time I was there it looked like a homeless shelter.

I think Dead End BBQ is the best BBQ in the city.

I think Rouxbarbs may have the best food.

Orangerie is still tasty as well.

Went to The Copper Cellar tonight after deciding against going to the Downtown Grill and Brewery as was suggested by the staff at the Hotel. It was okay, but I found the microbrews to be heavy on the sweet side. The food was good.

 

[bigdaddy]

never been impressed with the Knoxville micro brew in general but the food at the Cellar is pretty good for the price.

I agree with all these statements.

Walk into a Smokey Mountain Market and say...

"Give me a ROOSTER...and run him through the garden!"

Dad grew up in Knoxville, parents had their first date at Regas, named their dog Regas. He was incredibly sad to see it go.

I never liked Regas...

Regas Brothers, where presently the Brazilian Steakhouse is located, was fairly decent. I still remember a filet they served called the Carpetbagger Filet that was out of this world.

It had a filet topped with a fried oyster? remoulade? steak sauce of some sort? and a few other things that when all put together was incredible.

Regas was the only 5* dinning place in Knoxville for years. I am not sure if there is a 5* in Knoxville now. I ate there over 100 times and we celebrated my Mother's 90th birthday there over 20 years ago. Bill Regas demanded the best of the best for Regas and he got it. One of the top 10 dinning establishment in which I have eaten, including those in NY, Atl, NO, Chicago, SF, Denver, Houston, Dallas, etc. I already miss them.

I've never eaten at Cheddar's, but have heard a lot of good things about them. One is getting ready to open in Knoxville on Clinton Hwy close to Merchants. Supposedly they have really good food, and their prices are very reasonable.
