Old Gilman Grill

“We went to Chattanooga for our anniversary and boy did we get pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. The food was spectacular. Steak and frites - 10 stars. Juicy, delicious. Ribeye was one of the best I’ve had. Beat the big steakhouses in Nashville. Get the burnt Brussels with the aioli dipping sauce . It wil change your life. Lemon and blueberry cheesecake was on point and The Nashville Pirate was WOW. Connor provided excellent service. His expertise, care and perfect timing of our meal was outstanding. Seriously I think he wrote the book on service and hospitality. Go here. It’s delicious. It’s relaxed. Priced right.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ While staying at Hotel Clemons, we decided to try Old Gilman Grill since it was just a short walk away, and I’m so glad we did. We ordered the pork belly appetizer, the salmon, and a couple of cocktails, and every single thing was delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly, the pork belly was a great starter, and the drinks were well made. What really stood out was the service. Our server, Kate, was fantastic. She was friendly, attentive, and gave great recommendations without ever making us feel rushed. The restaurant itself feels upscale and polished, but not stuffy. It has the atmosphere of a fine dining restaurant while still being comfortable enough that you don’t feel like you need to dress up. We were also surprised by how much seating they had available. I would absolutely come back and work my way through the rest of the menu next time I’m in Chattanooga. My unofficial ratings: Date Night: 9/10 ❤️ Girls Brunch or Dinner: 9/10 👯‍♀️ Family Friendly: 6/10 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Husband Hunting Spot: 3/10 😂 We actually asked our server, and she agreed it’s more of a place people come with their partner, friends, or family than somewhere packed with”

“We’re so glad to have discovered this restaurant which manages to be relaxed and classy at the same time. The food is delicious & perfectly prepared, and the service is friendly & gracious. We were initially seated near a party with several very loud guests of the shrieking variety. I knew my husband, who is hard of hearing even with hearing aids, would not be able to carry on a conversation, so I requested a change in tables. The host & hostesses were so kind & understanding and found us a new table like it was an everyday occurrence. Fortunately we got the same waiter because Hunter was excellent. He gave us good wine recommendations & did a top notch job. One touch that exemplifies the classiness of this restaurant is that when he cleared off the appetizer, some crumbs were on the table. He promptly pulled out a napkin & removed them. This is such a different ambience than your usual chain restaurant, & we appreciated the attentive service. We will be back! 🥰”

“Had a delightful and educational Chattanooga Whisky Sour making class! We sat at the bar while our outstanding bartender gave us very detailed instructions on how to make this delicious drink like a bartender. Very fun time for all. Look for the "Candles and Cocktail Crafting" class. Highly recommended and worth every penny!!”

“The service was top notch friendly, attentive, and fast. I had the Gilman Pasta with extra protein (blackened chicken breast), and oh my gosh, I can still taste that amazing sauce! Everything was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The whole experience felt warm and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back for more, highly recommend!”
