The Drawing Room - Knoxville

Food was bland and unseasoned. Not worth the price at all. The drinks and bartender was good. Shrimp and grits were sitting in a pool of liquid butter AND bland.. And avocado toast was bland and I might as well go to panera for more flavor. Worst of allwhen mentioned to the chef still wanted me to pay for the shrimp and grits smh. Some chefs are not good at recognizing thattheir food is lacking.

Not recommended. Food is subpar for this price point, access is difficult, and there are no actual tables and chairs to speak of. The restaurant just consists of a small bar, and then couches and coffee tables which make eating a very hard task. Thestaff also seems to always have an attitude about them as well.

As a couple of out of town/state travelers, we thought both the food and service was amazing. The service and bartender (Daniel), was the coolest dude. We would come back just to dine and drink here again. It was very slow paced while we were there(which is how we like it), and it has a speakeasy vibe.

I was blown away by the exceptional customer service at this restaurant. From the moment we walked in, they knew our names and greeted us by name throughout our entire visit. They even offered to drive us to and from dinner. The panoramic view from the suite was breathtaking. We will definitely be returning, even though we live in the same city!

My husband and I spent our wedding night at this restaurant and we absolutely adored it!! Laura and Josh went above and beyond to make the evening extra special for us. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a complimentary bottle of champagne and a charcuterie platter. The room was stunning and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The room service exceeded all expectations and was truly fantastic!
