We were passing through Knoxville, but saw high recommendations for this restaurant. I enjoyed their clam chowder, and an appetizer of Tuna. Most of all the view was beautiful, you could see the lake from the table we were seated.
Definitely recommend. Food, drinks, view and people are great. We've been twice and loved it. Will be going back for sure.
great! !!! waiter was outstanding! !! food was outstanding! !!!
Waitress forgot 2 bring bread. Crab cakes needed 2 be a little more done & 2,much nutmeg in sweet potatoes. Appeared 2 be an average meal.
Awesome food, great price and outstanding service, ask for Tori she is the best !
Great food, excellent service, nice libations at reasonable prices. Nice Lakeview sitting on covered patio.
Beautiful view... of the food!! And the lake was nice too! Well worth the stop off route
40 en route to Nashville. What a gem!!
Our waitress was awesome, but my food was a way too salty. I was really disappointed with the cleanliness, had to brush off the seats and the table was dirty...wine glasses were really spotty and the whole party commented on that. Always felt this was a high end place as we have been going there for years.. not sure what happened but feels more like going to a chain restaurant now. What a shame!!!!
Cannot beat the quality or service! Lots of reasonably priced lunch options with great salads!
Best Sunday brunch around! Great choice of dishes, desserts, and ambiance! Views of lake and surrounding areas are wonderful.
The view is lovely and the bar/bartenders are great. I've never had poor service the times I've gone. Basic American fare with a Gluten Free menu that is nicely varied. The food, however, is not 5-star: the burgers have gristle/bone bits, the fries are just ok, and the chicken is tough.
Great atmosphere but a bit sterile. Wait staff at lunch are not seasoned.
Food was very delicious, and the service was great.
Excellent food and service!! Trey was super!! He made us feel very good and was very good with his service!!
Always good. Good atmosphere, good food, good service
Probably the best views in West Knoxville. The steaks are good, the buffalo cauliflower is excellent. The seafood is usually good as well for a land-locked city. Great place to meet up with friends or colleagues.
This time of year the restaurant was crazy busy! We got lucky and found a seat at the bar, so no wait. The bartender's were awesome! The food tasty! We'll definitely be back!
I had black and bleu salad. I really liked it, but would have liked it better without balsamic vinegar. We ate with a view of the water. It was really beautiful.
Decent food just priced a little higher than the quality.
Nice place, fair food prices, but.... food wasn't great. My blackened tilapia was so salty I almost couldn't eat it. Luckily the cous cous and the broccoli were bland enough to make up for it. There were 16 in our party and the general consensus was similar. They need a better cook. Drinks were 7.50....ouch! Seems high. Spinach dip was pretty good. But it really is a nice location. So there's that.
Aside of the fact that the food is delicious and the view and service are top notch, the people went out of their way to help me find my purse. They all went the extra mile for me. Thank !!
I always have a great time when I go to Lakeside Tavern. They have great menus with lots of diversity. And the view is incredible! Be sure and ask for Madison T. She's a great server and is entertaining.
What an incredible spot! The food is as fantastic as the views. You truly cannot go wrong with anything on their menu. I highly recommend the bang bang shrimp, as well as the Hawaiian steak!! Keep up the great work
Nice atmosphere. Good food and good service. We were here at lunch time and lunch prices are very reasonable.
What a tremendous restaurant great food great service killer views!
Very nice restaurant, food is excellent. Staff is very friendly and professional. Pricing is average for the area, the view of the water way is a treat. Won't be disappointed.
Awesome atmosphere, worth the price, huge variety of food.
Amazing food, my drink was very good. Very pleased. Will visit again.
This resturant overlooks the Tennesse River. Delicious menu
Good good food but you need to add to your very basic beer collection pilot has a better section of beer
Great view. Very friendly staff. You can eat keto friendly!
A wonderful gentleman named Mark waited on us this afternoon and he was warm, friendly, polite, and swift with service. The food was just as good, and all-in-all a great experience.
Great food. Awesome views. Very friendly staff. Strawberry cake is excellent. Steaks are top quality. Buffalo cauliflower was surprisingly very good. This place is one of the top 3 restaurants in all of Knoxville
Great food, very friendly staff and the views are beautiful! We'll be back
A little too upscale for my family but the view was nice.
Grandpa's birthday dinner with the grandsons. Great view and good food.
Delicious Sunday brunch! I think it starts at 10:30 am. We got there a few minutes before and we are glad we did because it does get a little crowded. But it is worth it even if you have to wait!
Always good always the best bread and the best dinners and you have to try the creme brulee cheesecake the best dessert in the world!
Had a great lunch with friends today! We came in on our boat and enjoyed sitting outside. I had the cheeseburger and fries and it was delicious! Will definitely return!
This place was great I think our waiter was Thad or Chad his service I would give 10 out of 5 stars if I could he was amazing would definitely go here again!!!!
Great food and awesome happy hour. Lakeside also has a nice atmosphere with beautiful views of the lake!
I've always had good experiences at Lakeside... the food and service is great, and the view is awesome, especially in the summer when the marina is at full swing. You can visit by car or boat, and on a hot summer day on the lake, its nice having a place where you can dock and grab a bite to eat and have a cold one.
My husband and I had dinner there tonight. Our server, Tanner, was great. He offered suggestions at our request and was dead on. I ordered the Hawaiian Sirloin and my husband had the Salmon. We shared and both were amazing. Great atmosphere as well.
Good food with a great buffet. Just packed with people though.
Fantastic steaks, bread is superb, and the views are close and relaxing especially for tonight out on the town.
Madison our waitress was very rude and acted like we wasn't good enough. She wasn't friendly and literally would stop for two seconds to drop drinks off and leave before you could ask a question. She was really friendly to a table of 4 behind us. I wish she treated us as nice. This was our first time recommended by a friend and my last time. I have no time for snooty waitresses. This was our anniversary/Christmas dinner totally ruined by just the way someone acted. It changed our evening from delightful to unpleasant. I always give the waiter or waitress a $100 tip at Christmas but this is the first time I didn't.
We ate on the patio with a breathtaking view of the lake. Our server Jamie was amazing. My husband and I shared the Mediterranean Pasta with shrimp & a house salad. Everything arrived promptly, correctly & at the perfect temperature. Hubs and I both ordered drinks and both were fantastic. Best dining experience I've had in a long time.
It was great. Food was delicious, and our waitress was sweet.
Vegans beware. I was here for a group business lunch. The facility and views are beautiful! Ordered strawberry salad without meat and dairy. Salad arrived without dairy, but with several pieces of chicken. I sent it back. They removed almost all the chicken, and brought it back to me. Sickening.
First time for us from Maryville..waiter Jimmy was excellent good food great atmosphere..we will be back thanks
Service and food is impeccable,and the manager is awesome
We're from out of town and went here for my mom's birthday. Chose it for reviews and fairly reasonable prices. Was not disappointed! The service was great with friendly and very competent staff, the meals were delicious, and the view was beautiful. I was blown away at how quickly our food came out of the kitchen especially for a party of 10. No reservations but had 30 minute call ahead seating which still worked out well for us. Would definitely recommend.
Love this place! Smoked salmon appetizer is awesome!
Seated quickly on a very busy night. Food and service were great.
Fantastic place for late afternoon lunch. Good food and atmosphere. Would definitely go back.
Excellent food, wonderful ambiance, beautiful views of the lake, and decent prices. Servers are well trained, very professional. Thank God we're back in Knoxville where there are still good restaurants
Love the bread never had a bad meal you won't be sorry if you stop in!
This place is a little far out for me but worth the drive. During busy times best to make a reservation. Food is good and service is good. Prices are worth the food given. It is a few steps up regular daily places to eat..
Food is typical American fare, but you can't beat the views! Service is always good and attentive.
