The Lucky Rooster — Restaurant in Tennessee

It's a hole in the wall, so while I ranked 4 stars don't expect Ruth Chris'. I called ahead to make sure they would have the BBQ they advertised on socials, but when I received my order I was more than disappointed because the trays (two in total) did not LOOK like the quantities discussed. Once I got it home and plated it, for 4 smaller appetites, it turned out it was actually enough food with no leftovers. We received (per 3 piece tray) 1 sausage, 1 small rib rack, and a portion of pulled pork on bread, with two sides. The beans, though dry, were my favorite. I didn't mind them being dry, but someone else in our party did so I figured I'd mention that. The mac was also dry/not creamy but I didn't find fault in the flavor and would order again. The slaw is standard and the potato salad was unique with pieces of pickle chopped into it, along with what appeared to be a fruit but I couldn't tell what. The sausage tasted grilled and the ribs had curry seasoning which was unique. Overall, I was both surprised and happy with this purchase and will return if they offer this again. Service for our to-go order was quick, food was good, restaurant appeared to be clean, parking lot in front could use some work, but it is near a lake and I hear they've had a rough couple years, so again not a complaint just an...

We went for our first time last night. My dad has not left the house in a long time due to covid and wanted to try a restaurant 2 minutes from his house. I will first say this place has potential.

They tell you to sit wherever you like. The seating is packed. The staff don't wear masks and the paper towels are served on a roll that appears that other customers have handled before you. I'm giving this place 3 stars because location and food is great. But they could practice social distancing better and have more...

Surprisingly pleasant roadside tavern offering good food options not of typical bar food. The rice and shrimp bowl was delicious as was the black and bleu burger . The fries could be crispier but they were tasty. Reviews of slow service were unbounded at our visit. It was super busy nor dead. Servers didn't move quickly but the vibe was more relaxed and we enjoyed our beers while we waited 20 minutes for our food. Noteworthy is the clean bathroom and contrary to another reviewer, the servers did wear masks and they were extremely accommodating. Worthy stop after a MTB ride. Outdoor seating with a lake viewx across the street was an extra bonus on a beautiful 80°...
