This was nowhere near as good as we remembered. We didn’t like the queso fundido so we sent it back. The queso blanco was much better- best thing there. Chili Colorado was okay but the tamale was so bland and dry and flavorless. The margarita had no kick and we were super disappointed overall.

Delicious and huge portions! We liked the saganaki fried cheese and Russ loved the steak burger! The gyro platter was huge and so well assembled. The salad was crisp and the rice perfect. Ask for dressing on the side of the salad next time. The baklava ice cream is good but the imported Greek yogurt with sour cherry and the honey/walnut were SOOOO delicious! The rice pudding was decent but don’t need to get again (Indian kheer is better).

The bread and butter was OK but a little dry. The old-fashioned was straightforward and I enjoyed the Caesar salad with Parmesan dressing. I had to send the potatoes back because they were very overdone, but the second batch was much better. Lobster Mac and cheese was good. Russ said the prime rib was OK and the bananas foster bread pudding could be skipped. The ambience was probably the best thing about this place and the fact that it was super close to the RV park. For the same price Cooper’s in Knoxville was much better. Overall, a bit forgettable and we are not rushing to go back.

This place is fantastic! Excellent staff and ambiance, dog friendly patio and delicious food. Great breakfast burrito, fluffy pancakes with a hint of vanilla! Russ loved the chicken sandwich and the mimosa was good but I just wasn’t in the mood. Such good flavors and attention to detail.

Fairly standard but decent for Crossville. Server was rude and scarce. Rice was good and beef enchilada and tamale were edible. Russ wasn’t impressed with the chili Colorado the chips weren’t as good as Los Toritos. Try the pollo loco dish next time.

The yellow curry is good and so are the crab Rangoons and edamame (though a bit over priced). Russ said the Thai tea was a little too creamy. Glad this location is back open!!

The mimosa was okay - very pulpy. The Colorado salad was very basic and felt like it was missing ingredients, plus the chicken was super bland so I switched for a grilled chicken dish. It was better and the chicken was good but the ancient green side was mostly mushrooms and the street corn had a strong lime flavor. Russell liked his steak and the veggie side was cooked perfectly though also not any flavor. He wouldn’t get the chimichurri shrimp app again. The bread and butter is really the stand out here… Phenomenal!!! Best bread of my life.

The chai was yummy, but the quiche was dry and underwhelming. My mom liked the blueberry muffin and the hot chocolate and the ambience is very cute with a large menu so we’ll be back to try again. The Turkish flatbread was very good! Next time get the aioli on the side. Russ liked his Rueben.

The grilled chicken with goat cheese was very good! Loved the broccoli and the white cheddar mac and cheese. Russ said the steak was good along with the creamed corn and he really loved the vanilla old fashioned. Lobster bisque was also a huge hit with Russ. 2025: Russ LOVED the pork chop! Cesar was okay, skip next time. Deviled eggs are good but very heavy. Don’t get solo. 2026: I liked the halibut but not sure it was worth the price tag - didn’t love the wild rice it came with (so many things in it - was more like jambalaya). Pork chop was good for Russell again. Didn’t need the mac & cheese (way too heavy)

We only had entrees but the yellow curry was well executed and veggies perfect tenderness! Russ loved the orange chicken and wants to try other items next time as well. Great decor in a cozy spot!

The magic mountain roll and royal (fried) California were delicious (probably Russell’s favorite too)! Liked the regular Cali as well. Russ did all you can eat for $27 and said it was worth it. Edamame wasn’t great and Russ didn’t love the mussels.

I wasn’t impressed with the meatballs or the pizza or even the potatoes that came with Russell’s steak. The bread and butter was very good, but this place didn’t seem worth the price tag.

Ambiance and service was good but I was surprised how much the food flavor just didn’t come together. The butter chicken was bland and odd, the Rogan Josh was not quite right, samosas were okay but not very flavorful, naan tasted weirdly burned despite looking perfect and the rice was not even long grain basmati and again, had a weird flavor and texture. I’m not sure how this place has such good reviews or how they managed to make everything just a bit off and wrong but I don’t think I’ll be back.

The yellow curry was very good and the peppered beef was cooked to perfection. Eggrolls were decent and sticky rice. Dessert was OK but ice cream had lots of ice chunks in it. They are generous with the spice so ask for mild. The Thai tea seems smaller than average. Chicken fried rice was delicious- excellent flavor. Also loved the side of steamed veggies and crab Rangoons. The pad se ewe is also great! Russ liked the basil chicken as well. We came here many times since it was right next to the RV park. The curry puffs are great!

The tortilla soup had a great flavor but was packed with beans. The berry smoothie bowl was good but a bit tart. Cookies are always yummy.

Loved everything here! Yellow curry, chicken satay, fried rice, fried egg rolls are amazing (way better than the (fried veggie rolls)- all great at an affordable price. Basil fried right is delicious! I’ve had better cashew chicken stir fry and Thai custard sticky rice so skip those. Try N7 next time!!!

Lovely experience, fantastic Apple cinnamon tea!! The baked goods had a lot of thought put into them, but most of the breads and scones seemed dried out like they were not fresh that day. Desserts weren’t my favorite.

The fried egg rolls were perfection!! Excellent crunch all the way through. I got the cashew chicken stir fry and it was really good as well. (Some pieces of chicken were a little too small and crunchy but mostly great). I’d love to try their other dishes sometime.

The chicken taco was delicious and Russ loved the carne asada a bit better than the Al pastor. Neither of us liked the carnitas taco. Side of rice and side of cheese made it a great meal along with yummy chips and salsa. And Otis friendly inside the atrium!

Really liked the beef meat hand pie and stuffed pretzel. Russell’s roast beef was okay but kind of over flavored with chipotle and he didn’t finish it. I wasn’t impressed with the bacon egg and cheese breakfast croissant but the cardamom bun was yummy and would be even better heated up.

The Singapore sweet chili chicken pizza is still the best thing I’ve ever had! A medium is perfect for me and Russ to split. I also tried the seasonal NC sweet potato and it was a good concept but didn’t quite come together- it was dry and needed a touch of Alfredo sauce or something. Russ got spicy orange wings and they were too hot. Next time he wants to get something simple and dryer like garlic lemon pepper. The scone was good as always and it’s such a fun place to eat! 2026: the 3 sisters pepperoni was decent but nothing compared to the Singapore sweet chili. I don’t love their red sauce.

As expected, the chorizo breakfast burrito was stuffed with way too much meat and not enough egg. Russ liked his sandwich but the sweet potato fries weren’t cooked quite enough and the hash browns were flavorless and inedible. And the sweet cream pancake continues to be one of the best pancakes you can get anywhere

The potato soup was very good, but I didn’t love the citrusy flavor on the cauliflower. Russell did and he really liked his chimichurri steak. Dogs are allowed on the patio but they don’t have actual tables just fire pits. The music was blasting and the wind was blowing so it wasn’t an enjoyable time. We should go back for brunch buffet on Sundays before 2 PM
