Great experience! The food and drinks were delicious. Neat atmosphere. They have hookah on the patio, so we sat inside with our children. Inside was family friendly. The waitress was very helpful with the menu options, too.

I’ve been here twice and both times I was served by Kimberlie, she’s amazing! We came for dinner with a party of 16 and she took very good care of us. She’s friendly, patient, and attentive. The food and drinks were delicious both times I came and I will be coming back. Also, at 10:30pm a DJ comes in so we stayed for the music and to enjoy some drinks at the bar. Chris was our bartender and he made some great drinks and was very friendly! I recommend coming and enjoying the beautiful decor and delicious food. Don’t forget to ask for Kimberlie!

Went for Sunday Brunch. The vibe was definitely dope. DJ was spinning a fire set. The decor is amazing. Food portions are very small.

Earlier this year I went for drinks on a Saturday night, everything about this place is on top. Service, starting from the host, to waiters, the manager who was always very attentive, dj, atmosphere.. Drinks were really good and price is very reasonable.

On the cusp of a 3.5 stars. There is potential here. I decided to take my wife here for a birthday dinner. We had a reservation on a Saturday night. The restaurant entrance kind of on the side and you could miss it if you aren’t paying attention. When you first walk in the front section is where they have hookah. The restaurant definitely have a chic lounge vibe and I feel they cater more to the lounge parts then the restaurant part. The tables are too small to hold any much food or drinks.

Our large group had a wonderful experience on their shady patio on a breezy summer evening. Our waiter, Chris, had great recommendations on a variety of options during happy hour. The cocktails were amazing. Everything from an Empress Gin to a smoked Old Fashion were available. Our group kept ordering appetizers til we worked our way through most of the menu 😉

The location and decor have a speakeasy or high-end exclusive feel to them but the food was mediocre at best. I had high hopes for this restaurant but was not impressed frankly. The view is over a pond (hard to call that a lake) but I do appreciate very high quality heaters in the outdoor patio area during winter! The decor is beautiful and our server Rena was so attentive and patient with us (we were a handful) she made us feel very welcome and explained the brunch menu options clearly. Pretty affordable for brunch appetizer and entree plus unlimited mimosas only $55 per person. Not a bad deal! The food looked pretty but seemed stale, tasteless, or low quality ingredients. I think they could put a little more love into some of their dishes. I had a nice time here but I cant say it was worth the drive out to Loudon county. Thanks again Rena for making us feel special for our birthday!

Not a place that you’d come for food, but for a few pics once every couple of years.
