   The Copper Cellar Down in the Cellar never disappoints. Excellent food, service and wine. We especially appreciate the ambiance that has remained over the years. NO NEED TO UPDATE! Some things are classic and need to be kept intact. This place is one!

   Restaurant was amazing. My wife and I went for our 5 year anniversary and I had some special requests for our table before we got there. Richard (the manager) was extremely helpful in helping me get these done and even went above and beyond by having a custom menu printed up for us that congratulated us on our 5 year anniversary. All of the staff was amazing. The food was even better. Highly recommend the ale steak and peanut butter pie.

   Been driving from Charlotte to eat there since we discovered it 20 years ago. Go 2 or 3 times a year. It was excellent from the food to the service. Two meals and bottle of wine for less than $100 before tip. Great value.

   Great everything! We had 6:30pm reservations Down in the Cellar and got right in. I had a fresh fish special, Halibut with green beans and a cup of crab bisque. All very good! The boys had steak and fries, and they loved it! Free Parking is easy, and service is nice. It made our vacation extra special!

   The restaurant was out of sweet potatoes and calamari. We had a 4pm seating. How are you out of food? The crab fingers were fresh frozen at best and had no flavor and the bone in 28 oz. Steak was 50% fat, 20% bone and the meat you could eat was chewy and gummy. My wife’s stuffed shrimp were so bad she took one bite.

    Food was okay. We paid $15.50 for 1 crab cake that a piece of shell in it. Ordered a cheeseburger with bacon when it came had no cheese. Another 5 minutes to get that fixed. Asked for bread at first and it never came, asked again and received it after the meal came. Needed more ketchup it took asking twice and then receiving it 10 minutes later.

    We enjoy dining at the Cellar. This experience could have been better. My steak was overcooked (I like it Medium Well) and the service was a little slow. The meal was expensive for what you receive.

    Once sat down, our waitress left menus, and did not return until we waved her down. We waited for at least 15 minutes. There were very few tables around us with people seated. We ended up leaving, not wanting to have this service for the entire dinner.

    Don’t waste your time and money on this establishment. The restaurant has the potential to be good but fell way short on food quality.

    The Copper Cellar Down Under never disappoints. Been dining there since it opened during my UT undergrad days. My one suggestion would be to add more sides and add French Onion soup to the menu.

    Great Calamari appetizer followed by one filet and one strip steak. Filet was great but the strip was tough with too much gristle.

    We arrived at 6:00 on Thursday for dinner before attending a play at the Carousel. Our waiter was super! There were very few patrons at that time, so there was no noise whatsoever. The food was top-notch. We had a Marvelous experience.

    While the service was fantastic and they did a lot of wonderful personal touches to make us feel welcome, the food was not up to the price and expectations. One of our meals was almost inedible (They were out of the prime rib and ordered the scallop scampi, which truly was awful). The stake ordered was fine, but not exceptional for a restaurant that is known for stake. Have to say the overall, we were very disappointed.

    We got engaged at the Cellar 41 years ago as college students and it was such a joy to be able to celebrate this Valentine's Day there. The personal touch and ambiance was awesome; the staff was very attentive and the service was great. The food was perfect. The greeting card and the personalized menu was very impressive. We traveled in from Atlanta and it was well worth it.

    We had a great time at Copper cellar. Our server was a little new to the job it appeared, and will do great with some more experience. All of our food was really good I had a New York strip and she had the scallop scampi. Surprisingly well we both had the spinach Maria one was not very good and the other was delicious.

    Great steak. I think Copper Cellar May be overlooked as a steak destination. Very tasty and prepared as I like. Service was disappointing on my recent visit. Large groups seem to throw the staff into a tizzy.

    We had a reservation for 5:30, but with Garth Brooks concert it was packed. They said the wait would be additional 30 mins, but they were able to get me and my wife seated within 10 mins of our reservation time. Our waiter was great and the food is delicious and very good size portions!

    It was our first visit to Knoxville. We wanted a nice dinner for my wife’s birthday while in town. A friend suggested Copper Cellar, specifically the lounge in the lower level. It was perfect!!! The service was great, the atmosphere was great, and the food was beyond great! I told my wife later in the weekend that I just found my favorite steak joint in the country. We WILL be back. (We’re from Columbus, OH)
