Unique name with YUM YUM food. Everyone in our party loved their food. The staff was extremely friendly and very tentative. Not only was presentation great, but the taste was WOW. One of the best chicken sandwiches EVER! Great decor inside. Was able to get a table right away. The place is WAY bigger than it looks. Will definitely stop in here again on my way through Knoxville.

We did not care for Not Watson’s. We were expecting much better food by reviews and recommendation’s by coworker’s. Both our entrees were burnt. The meatloaf had a good flavor. The asparagus not bad but also not very good. I would not recommend the chili Mac burger it was just a no. We ordered the pear cider, not a fan. Definitely suggest keeping it simple with a traditional apple cider. Server was not attentive during our meal. Restaurant was not busy at the time either.

The food was perfectly prepared and tasted fresh. We ordered strawberry pecan salad with grilled chicken and salmon with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Lemon drop martini was also very good. Staff was friendly and attentive. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. I will definitely visit again.

So we were starving after the day that we had. Tried to go to an aquarium that ended in heartache for my toddler, so we opted to go to Knoxville and grab some food before we continued to play on this rainy day. We tried a few restaurants and one told us they seated a party of 3 and were booked for an hour, so we checked out the menu here and it was a hook, line, and sinker for us. Ian was our server and he went ABOVE and beyond for our party. My toddler was being a bit of a handful due to being in a car seat for two hours and not being able to visit the aquarium, but Ian was super patient. At one point he brought back a crayon and some paper (and gave us more) to help keep her occupied, which worked wonders. He gave us a few tips and we ordered French Toast, Burger, Fish n CHips, and another burger…..plus the mimosa pitcher. It was all delicious. I was one of the burger people and it was so juicy (not to much where it made the bread soggy which is a HUGE turn off for me) but was so good. The fries were seasons and tasted great. My wife got the French Toast and it was divine and it was good. The bacon was crispy and tasted so great! Even my toddler loved eating it as well. Mother in law got the fish and chips and she said it was super flavorful, moist, and melted in her mouth, even without the use of vinegar. We liked that the pitcher of mimosa’s was a good mixture….IE more champagne vs orange juice which is a great thing!!! Overall the experience here was awesome. I was super glad the other place had over an hour wait or else we would not have gotten to eat here. I will def go here again!

I don't believe we have every used open table, I'm sorry.

There looks to be a large area in the back, Do they have any local events here? Bands, shows, poetry slam, etc?

No, but you can eat there and directly across the courtyard you might have what you're looking for at Pres Pub or Scruffy City
