Reviews for Amber Restaurant in Knoxville, TN
Absolutely horrible. We sat immediately and waited 40 minutes for menus. We were given the wrong order multiple times. One of... those time Becky, the ?manager? gave us the wrong order that I?d eaten off of, SHE GAVE IT TO THE TABLE BEHIND US. ALREADY EATENOFF OF PLAYES SHE GAVE TO OTHER PEOPLE. this place is a joke. Avoid it Read more
Not a fan, took several minutes for anyone to acknowledge us and then the menu was ultra confusing. Had to ask for clarification... on several items and even ordered incorrectly after getting that clarification. Between the service and confusing menu, I'mlikely not to return regardless of food quality. If you do go, do not order the ham. A salt lick is cheaper and tastier. Read more
I would have given 0 stars for todays visit if I could! Waited 25 mins for drinks. Then all our food was wrong. Ordered no... onions due to an allergy and the server/manager said ?CAN YOU JUST EAT IT?? Then everyone else?s was messed up also! Waited foralmost 30 minutes just to have one of the three omelettes fixed. Worst service ever!!! Read more
Food is great. Staff awesome. The country fried steak with gravy is good beyond description. Only on Wednesday and Sunday I... believe though. PLEASE SERVE EVERY DAY! Read more
My boyfriend and I were out and he suggested this restaurant which he had been to several times. This was my first and probably... last time coming here. We arrived about 2:10pm and took a moment to decide were to sit as there were closed sections, un-clearedtables and other guests. Once we found somewhere to sit the waitress came over took our drink orders and handed us menus. Cameback with our drinks we said we needed another minute and she said to let her know when we were ready. Once we had decided Icalled her over, I ordered the Crispy Fried Steak with mashed potatoes and mac and cheese which was all good, then the boyfriendordered the Amber's Pot Roast with Vegetables and the waitress recommended not to get this, so he ordered the Chicken andDumplings to which she responded with no that it was Sunday and they closed at 2:30 pm (which is the first time we were informedof the time they closed, we were under the impression that they closed at 3:00 pm since that is what was on Google which wasupdated 2 weeks ago, there was no sign anywhere with the time and again there was ample time for them to tell us that. We arenot those people, if we had known that we would have been like okay we will come back another time, but I guess that wouldexplain her attitude the whole time we were there.) So then she went on to explain that the Pot Roast was more like soup andsmall chunks instead of big slices, he went with it anyway and ordered double mashed potatoes. Once we received our food the macand cheese and potatoes had no taste whatsoever, I had to add 2 packs of salt and 4 butters to the potatoes to get any sort oftaste and the boyfriends Pot Roast with Vegetables was more like Vegetable stew with 2 tiny slivers of meat. When we commentedabout it to our waitress she went to find someone else who came over to tell him that the Pot Roast was shredded and put inthere, but he could get something else. He ended up getting the Crispy Fried Steak as well. 1. The time r Read more
Service is awful. We sat for 15 min before we could get drinks sat 10 min before we were even greater. Food took 30 more min.... Server never came to check on us or to fill out drinks. We had to do that ourselves. People were walking out because theyweren't being greeted or getting drinks. Servers didn't prebus their tables our first time here was just as bad so we decidedto give it a second try. We won't be back it's just as terrible if not worse. Not even busy and this place is disgusting. Thebusser is the only one working. Bacon taste like fat back. It's like they just drop it in the fryer Read more
Very friendly staff and good country diner food. Don't expect anything fancy, but you will get a cup of coffee set fast in front... of you and a large choice of solid country selections on the menu. The biscuits and gravy were quite good and the Texas toastgrilled cheese, although not quite melty and topped with a pickle circle, was good. The chicken and dumplings was very good andthe pecan pie was as well. The prices were incredibly low. And you really did get your money's worth and more, tbh. All in allit's a good place to go and the staff are honestly exceptionally nice, speedy and helpful. Read more
