Athens Restaurants

I had the Filet w/Creole Blackened Shrimp and the word that first came to mind after the first bite of steak was...velvety! It was the best steak that I've had in my 27 years in Chattanooga. I also enjoyed the Gruyère Potato Croquettes...superb! I can honestly say that it got very silent at my table after the food arrived and everyone enjoyed their meals...not one complaint. The ambiance was great, almost festive, and the service was absolutely wonderful! I'll definitely be back to try other menu options and I can't wait to try their brunch! Enjoy!!!

Been to the restaurant several times. Never disappoints, food, service, drinks, all excellent. Service is always above average, best around. Have celebrated 2 anniversaries and other events, tough to go anywhere else, it is that good. Hope it never changes!!! 5 Star!!!

Dancing Bear has swiftly become one of our most cherished dining destinations, so much so that upon returning to the area, a visit was nothing short of essential. The cuisine (most notably the filet and the pork chop), the service, and the ambiance are truly unparalleled. We extend our sincerest gratitude to our server, Ian, as well as to Nicole and Jameson, whose warm and gracious hospitality has made our experiences unforgettable time and time again. Should you be in search of a reason to dine here, consider this your invitation. We eagerly await our return to East Tennessee, and naturally, to Dancing Bear.

I cannot believe we only just found this place. I had venison, which you never would’ve known was venison, and the rolls and salad we had were both incredible as well. We enjoyed our time and will definitely be back soon!! Very down to earth hospitality.
