Okay, YUM! Loved everything we got. Katie gave us exceptional service with the best recommendations. The margarita was clearly not a mix but a high quality alcohol. Appreciated the ice. The poke bowl is something myself and the whole table would get again! Everyone around us got oysters that looked top notch. Great prices for the quality. Highly recommend making a reservation since it got busy quick for dinner on a weeknight. Free parking nearby but requires a little walk. Can’t wait to come back especially to try brunch!!!

We absolutely loved this place! The atmosphere is wonderful and the food is high quality. We had brunch and everything had ample portions and was delicious. It was also super fast. The service was also great – McKenzie was our server and we adored her! So attentive, helpful, and kind!

Went on a Saturday night and was surprised at how quick our food came out considering the restaurant was packed. Some of the best salmon in Knoxville!! Super delicious, the truffle fries were a generous portion as well. Mahi in my sushi bowl was a little dry but still had great flavor. Drinks were a highlight for sure. Definitely recommend a cocktail or two. Make a reservation because they were super busy.

A fantastic experience and wonderful first impression. The cocktails and food were superb. Roxana was a particularly wonderful server. I will be dreaming about the tuna burger and plan to come back as soon as I can.

I had eaten at their Chattanooga location. I admit that I was impressed with the cocktails (Sangria), food, and service. I love the Old City and this restaurant is a great addition to the area. My personal recommendations include the truffle fries as an appetizer and for your entree either the chicken caprese or the fried green tomato burger.

I couldn’t wait to try STIR after hearing it was opening in Knox. Gosh, it did not disappoint. I’ve been twice for dinner so far and eager to try brunch out.

The atmosphere is amazing. Dining inside or out, I love the vibe. Good for a dinner with someone special or just having drinks at the bar. You can’t miss with the food selections but, they are most popular for their oyster selections.

Fresh food and made from scratch. The vibe here is amazing and the staff was great. We arrived a few days after they opened and they were already hopping! The food was good. The tuna salad was strange and didn’t have the best flavor. The fried fish was more like popcorn fish nuggets Delish but not as I expected. The shrimp salad was good. Homemade drinks from the bar were delicious!! Even the strawberry lemonade for my son was made from scratch!

This place is incredible. The concept is extremely unique starting with their “shaved ice” drinks apart from having over 300+ spirits. They are able to create your drink not only on the rocks and shaved ice but many other different ways, you just ask. We went for saturday & sunday brunch and the mimosa and bloody mary’s are only $5!!! The oysters are OUT OF THIS WORLD! The woman that serves the oysters is incredible and was able to further explain all of the different variety oyster as well as why is flavor taste like it does, her name is Neidi! Chef sebastian also stopped by and intoduced himself and explained the beautiful concept of restaurant and we just loved it all! Excellent attention to detail and very experienced chef and workers! I give it 110%!!! We will be coming back every week!!!!

When you go, you gotta ask for my man Joseph and trust his recommendations. I let him know I’m a fan of scotch, and he recommended the scotch cocktail (The king’s gambit I think?), and he recommended to pair it with the filet and ravioli. EXCELLENT CHOICE! His recommendations were amazing for our experience.
