Farmacy - Knoxville

“Excellent restaurant in Knoxville. I went here and was going to order off the menu, but realized they were having Taco Tuesday so I purchased a five dollar margarita and three dollar tacos. Popular restaurant and I would come back here again. Great menu with items such as Garlic Chardonnay chicken, French onion short ribs, Spicy chicken meatballs, and Hot chicken. They also have lots of vegetarian options, such as salads and bowls. Jenny was my server and she was friendly and professional.”

“I was traveling for work from out of town, and this place was highly recommended. I also love farm to table restaurants. This place did not disappoint. The food, service, and atmosphere was top notch. I highly recommend making a reservation. My waitress, Caroline, went above & beyond!”

“I liked the fresh menu selection with a focus on locally sourced products. Everything was pretty good. Recommend getting a reservation! Restaurant definitely got a “glow up” since it’s some Google map pictures seem out of date.”

“I was in Knoxville for work and wanted to grab a bite before heading home. I was in the mood for brunch, and this spot came up on Yelp. I sent a few options to my wife, and she chose this place. When we arrived, we were told there would be about a 30-minute wait, but it ended up being closer to 15 minutes, which was a nice surprise. The ambiance and décor were beautiful—very cute, cozy, hometown vibes. While waiting for our server, we looked over the menu. There were tons of unique items—definitely different from what you normally see. Even though I thought I wanted brunch, I ended up going with the beef dip, while my wife ordered the burger of the month. She also chose the goat cheese hot honey as an appetizer. When the appetizer arrived, I wasn’t sure I’d like it, but it turned out to be surprisingly delicious, especially paired with the crostini. My beef dip came with seasoned brisket that was incredibly tender. Some of the brisket juices soaked into the fries, giving them an extra layer of flavor. The au jus was perfectly balanced and didn’t overpower the brisket. My wife really enjoyed her burger. Her only minor complaint was that the fries were mostly short pieces instead of longer cuts, but they were still crispy, hand-cut fries. Overall, this is a solid spot, and if I’m back in Knoxville, I’d definitely return.”

“We genuinely wanted to love this place. It came so highly recommended, and we walked in excited. But my husband summed it up perfectly: underwhelming. Not terrible by any means, just… far from what we hoped for. I ordered the biscuits and gravy. The gravy arrived lukewarm, and the biscuits tasted strongly of raw flour. One of them was so tough I actually had to work at it with my knife—never a great sign. The chicken itself was tender enough to cut with a fork, but the biscuit beneath it was bland and dense. The “candy bacon” turned out to be more like crystallized sugar than bacon—just sweet crumbs that made the whole dish even sweeter. I mentioned to the server after the first bite that it was overly sweet, and she simply acknowledged it and moved on. The dish really needed seasoning and balance. My husband ordered the Brekkie with brisket, and he said it tasted more like pot roast from a crock pot than smoked brisket. No smoke, no seasoning, just a very earthy, monotone flavor profile. The whole dish was one, boring palate. The restaurant itself is charming, and our server was friendly, but her attention was almost entirely on the large table beside us. We didn’t get drink refills, and she didn’t check back in after the initial drop-off. The food also took about 30 minutes to arrive, so even though we were disappointed, we didn’t say anything—we didn’t want to wait another half hour. We might give it another try someday, but breakfast won’t be what we order if we do. With all the glowing recommendations we heard, it was disappointing to walk away feeling like the experience was barely average.”
