I'm a sucker for a great reuben 'n' beer. I've finally decided I'm not that nuts about the Downtown Brewery offerings, though. I just tried Yazoo Pale Ale on tap last night, though, which Tomato Head now carries (yea!), and it is excellent. It could use more hops, but that's true of almost all pale ales. Sierra Nevada is an exception, but it's getting hard to find on tap around here, for some reason.

We also loved the Reuben, all the pickled veggies, and the cashew pate, but the chili dog tasted like propane or gas, and the tab was steep for basically fancy lunch fare.

I'll try it again after they work some more of the kinks out and expand the menu.

I've not been in yet, but there always seems to be a good crowd. Nice addition to neighborhood.

I head down that way every few weeks or so for another doctor appointment. I will have to make time to stop in for lunch one day and try it out. I wish there were some vegetarian places out here near Halls. At least one grocery store with an extensive section for vegetarians would be nice. [/Sigh] Ah well, maybe someday...

Just don't order a sweet tea.

This place has a great vibe. Nothing like it in Knoxville. I went there for the first time last week. I had a pate plate. It might be just a little more than I would spend at a chain -- but I got alot of good healthly food.

If you like local restaurants and want them to thrive -- make a point of checking this one out.

Saw a place with a great name.
King Tut's Grill.
Anyone eaten there?
Is it good?

Went to Veg-O-Rama Saturday with an optimistic attitude. Loved its vibe and decor. Unfortunately, several disappointments. No wine. Solved that by sending hubby to downtown liquor store. He was back in no time. Great. Then they ran out of veggie burgers. Then they ran out of reubens. And chili. Waiter explained that "since it's Saturday and we aren't open for the next two days" they were running out of things. It was only 7:30. Surely there is a smart solution to this. Will give them another shot in a couple of weeks and hope they have figured it out. Would love to see them make it.

Me and my sister ate there today for the very first time. I had the veggie burger and the coleslaw, she, the veggie burger and the potato salad. I thought the veggie burger was very good, good consistency, nice flavor. The slaw was great, had that balsamic flavor. My sister, at first, really seemed to be enjoying her burger, but not a vegeterian, suddenly could not fathom the texture. Would be more of an aquired taste for her. We plan to check it out again on a Wednesday night, we heard they have great specials on Wednesdays. She said that she will give it another try. She hopes to try the chili next. I think they need more dessert items.....
