Focusing on burgers, Bourbon, and beer, this Knoxville restaurant is practically a mecca for masculinity. In fact, the only more manly substances on the planet would be Chuck Norris' beard/chest hair or Mike Ditka's mustache. I'm pretty sure my chest hair instantly started growing soon as i walked through the door. You get the idea.
We started with the white cheddar pimiento cheese dip, which also includes tomato jam and goat cheese; served with house made pita chips. Mind blowing. Maybe the best appetizer I've tried; which is quite the endorsement.
Also heard the opa (flash fried feta, local honey, and a baguette) is incredible; but I was already getting full after practically dumping the whole serving of pimiento cheese directly into my face.
Then came the burger. All beef is locally sourced, which is usually a good sign your burger will be amazing. I ordered a special that came with pimiento cheese (there can never be too much pimiento cheese) and Bentons bacon (which is a treat all its own). Almost too much goodness. ALMOST.
I didn't have a drink, but they sport a nice tap list and Bourbon selection.
Why go?
Better question: why would you NOT? Food and drink are incredible. Atmosphere is great. Like almost every restaurant in Market Square, its extremely busy after dark. You really can't go wrong. Make sure to not miss a pilgrimage to this manly mecca. Just go.
