TENN

I really enjoyed the chicken and waffles, craft coffees, and friendly service . Cute little boutique restaurant for those staying at the Hyatt or passing by. Brunch wait is longer than some, but worth it.

TENN located in the Hyatt hotel which is walking distance from all downtown hotels. Love that this is a brunch spot so my husband and I decided to check it out. We walked over and waited for a good amount of time before we were acknowledged to get a seat. I was surprised since a handful of employees walked by us. We finally got seated and it took awhile for a server to come and greet us. Once we were greeted, we got our waters, ordered coffee, and food. There was a wait for our coffee. We were right by the coffee bar so I watched when our order would be up. The baristas were hanging out so I figured our waitress didn't put in our order yet. Once we saw our waitress hanging out she noticed we didn't have our coffees and started making them. Not sure why the service was so slow all around except with the food. Overall, everyone was really nice but didn't understand the lack of acknowledgment and slower service when the restaurant wasn't busy. For brunch, my husband ordered the loaded bowl with steak. It was great! Steak was cooked medium and came out just right. The bowl was topped with a paprika aioli. Diner vibes. Loved the colors. Would come back for the food but not the service.

Visited July 22, 2023.Honestly food taste is about a 4/5. The Avocado toast is 5/5, absolutely recommend. Also ordered the chicken biscuit. The chicken was flavored beautifully but the biscuit and potatoes was dry.The price was 50% more expensive than other places in the area with the same items and portion. TENN's ambiance is scaled nicer so I wouldn't mind paying the price if the food was perfect and service was better.Arguably my table asked for more time with the menu when I was ready to order but our server disappeared for 15 minutes before coming back to take our orders. I was getting impatient because I brought my toddler & worried she'd be hangry. I'm not sure if there's a pooled tipping system, but when our food arrived none of the staff came to refill our water and there were a lot of servers before they slowed for their mid-day staff meeting.The manager was so kind to let us know that they are about to have a staff meetings so we weren't feeling some type of way when everyone disappeared.There is a parking lot across the street BUT they validate Valet Parking so please use the service! It's much more convenience and will save you the stress of finding cheaper alternatives!

I came here Friday night for the Flower Power bar, and the experience that's marketed is a lot different than the actual experience. The Tenn website and Open Table both note there's a free valet for two hours. When I arrived, I was asked by the valet if I was staying at the hotel. I said no, but I have a reservation. He pointed me to the paid lot across the street. I asked if the information on the website was incorrect, and he responded that the lot was full. We fortunately found street parking, but because it was raining and we'd planning on valeting, we were soaked. We went to the bar to check in, and after about five minutes someone acknowledged us and asked for our order. I told them we were there to check in for our reservation, and he told us they don't do reservations, but it's open seating. I asked if I had come to the right place, and he reassured me that I had, but they don't do reservations. Our reservation was for a table, and we ended up having to grab a seat at the bar. This happened to another patron about 30 minutes later. The drinks were good, and I enjoyed the food. Bar staff were friendly and appeared to be doing the best they could with what they had. (For example, serving wine in champagne flutes because they were out of glasses.) They were incredibly patient with all of the bachelorette parties.

The Baby Biscuits are the best we've ever had. Loved our Cappuccinos and the food was amazing. Our waitress, Ne Ne, was a delight. Great service and food, everyone makes an effort to make sure you are a happy customer.

Loved this spot! It's a quaint restaurant, and the food was amazing. I got the breakfast sandwich, and the biscuit was probably th best I've ever had. My friends and I got bottomless mimosas, which were great, and the staff were super attentive to when we needed a new one. They even let us stay past closing to finish up, when we were unaware that they had closed. Great experience overall!!

Not great! Food is very average. Service was slow because there wasn't enough staff. The staff that was there was working very hard.

This is connected to the Holston House so it was an easy breakfast location since they are connected. We had a sampling of everything with the our choice. Everything was great except the biscuits. They were quite dry and there wasn't enough gravy to counteract the dryness. Overall, a good experience. We would be back.

My wife & I went for breakfast , the blueberry pancakes were amazing. My wife had the biscuits & gravy, eggs & potatoes, all fresh and delicious .

Some seating is a bit cramped, some of the staff would rather be somewhere else.......other than that an interesting offering of breakfast/brunch plates. Might try again......or maybe not.
