STIR is the perfect restaurant to sip a craft cocktail over a dozen oysters, enjoy a night out, or meet for lunch. Located in the heart of Old City, the restaurant is an open-air concept with a large, heated outdoor patio. We are open for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch.Great food starts with fresh, local ingredients. Our kitchen prepares everything from scratch, and our signature raw bar is stocked with fresh oysters and seasonal seafood. STIR is famous for craft cocktails. We freeze and carve 300-pound blocks of artisanal ice in-house, age certain cocktails in oak barrels for richer flavors, and place others on draft for crispness and carbonation. The result: categorically elevated cocktails. Our passion for fine spirits also compels us to find and share rare bottles, many of which are extremely difficult to procure. We welcome Knoxville to enjoy our unmatched cocktails, fresh seafood, and classic dishes in an atmosphere of genuine hospitality

Amazing service. Food was good, but not as incredible as others had made it out to be. Some of the best service I’ve had in years!

If you are looking to experience wild game, this is the place. Although I'm not as adventuresome as my husband, I found plenty to satisfy my appetite. The bison ribeye was cooked perfectly and had a great taste. Cocktails were excellent. Great place for an intimate date night or celebration. It's pricy for sure.

Our server was wonderful -- she was knowledgeable about the oysters, cocktails, and menu. The New York Sour cocktail was amazing. Oysters are delicious --- one of, if not THE, best location in Knoxville for fresh New Brunswick/P.E.I. oysters. Everything we ordered was delicious.
