Going to Knoxville for BassMaster Classic next month, 13th to 18th. Looking for great places though fine dining is not necessary.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner. $20-25 entree maximum for dinner.

Thanks

Ye Olde Steakhouse. Trust me. Best Prime Rib I have ever had. Its where Peyton Manning goes when he is in town.

Bingo. Really good burgers. But make sure to get your name in.

I went there when I arrived in town for a vacation with friends. Great location and views, but I found the BBQ to be very average to below average.

I also agree with Tupelo Honey. Great brunch.

I really enjoyed the beer and burger at Blackhorse Brewpub... then someone recommended Stock and Barrel so I got a burger there... awesome.

Pretentious Beer Co is awesome, and so is Postmodern Spirits.

I had several people recommend Lonesome Dove for a nice meal but I didn't get a chance to go.

Stock and Barrel is as good as everyone is saying. Hell of a whiskey menu there too.
Bunch of different good Mexican places, I like El Mezcal.
Roosters is a cool bar, their smoked wings are legit as hell, $2 tallboys and half off wings there on Tuesday nights
Balter Beerworks has some top notch brews and a solid menu. Just don't get the jambalaya there

Apparently not. I got 3 downvotes for suggesting it.

Where are you staying first of all?

Stock and Barell and Abridged are both good, I think Abridged is better because the atmosphere.

Not Watson’s has never disappointed

Sweet P’s BBQ there is one downtown and it’s way better than Calhoun’s.

Cruze Farms for Ice Cream

Litton’s is a landmark in Knoxville it’s upgraded diner food good burgers etc and huge portions and the cakes are wonderful. It’s off the beaten path.

JC Holdway is pretentious I wasn’t impressed
Lonesome Dove was good and service was outstanding but both are out of your range unless Dove opens up there patio dining menu.

Nama is good sushi

Balter Beerworks, Elkmont Exchange and Central Flats are in a close corridor and all are good too.

A Dopo pizza is outstanding and use their online seating sign up or it’s an hour wait.

Ye Old Steakhouse is overrated IMO

Going further out west to suburbs is Water Into Wine is a neat tapas place with an excellent bar

Litton’s is way more overrated by people in that area than what people think of in and out and whataburger combined.
