Petro's Chili & Chips - Farragut — Restaurant in Tennessee

This specific Petros location is formative and integral to my very existence and who I am as a person today.

You see, I grew up coming to Knoxville each and every summer from the time I was a wee youngin’ (appx. aged 4 to 20) to see my grandparents (who lived on Sallings Rd., which is a stone’s throw from this steadfast Petros) and would gleefully look out for the unmistakable Petros sign while driving down Kingston Pike, after 10 hours in the car from Central Florida, to turn right and speed downhill into my grandparents’ driveway.
