Review by Lulu Kris

September 12, 2024

Lonesome Dove Knoxville is a hidden gem for a fine dining experience!

We celebrated a birthday here, and I was impressed by the cozy, romantic atmosphere. Our server was attentive, guiding us through the impressive menu.

We started with the blue corn lobster hushpuppies - super tasty! For the main course, I chose the bison ribeye, which could have used more seasoning, but the elk loin my partner had was melt-in-your-mouth wonderful.

The cocktails were skillfully crafted, and don’t skip dessert - chocolate lava cake was divine! Definitely a place to return to for special occasions... 🎉
