"My husband and I ordered takeout on our way to Roan Mountain to do some hiking and birding. We both got the Philly cheesesteak and fries. (We skipped the vegan mayo. Both were hot and fresh and delicious. We don’t eat fries often so when we splurge we want them to be fresh cut and fried right. These did not disappoint. Double fried and crispy. We would definitely stop here again if we are anywhere near Johnson City."

"Let your foodie adventure begin here at Gourmet Co must try! So I’m headed to Johnson City for work and my partner finds this article about 10 best restaurants to try in what was named “little Chicago” (some Capone history here). First on the list is Gourmet Co. Open Table had no available spots for my one free night of dinner, but the restaurant website said to call them if you run into that problem. I called. Dinner for 1? Anytime? No problem!!! 7pm bar seating and away we go! My bartender/server is excellent— busy as hell, but helpful, attentive and a delicious drink slinger. I start w a dirty martini with goat cheese stuffed olives. Wow! Who knew? And he made it just how I like it. The menu had such delicious soy ding options, but I’m dining alone and only have one stomach. If my chosen specials were indicative of the quality of all the dishes, a chef tasting menu here would be phenomenal to experience. But alas, I chose with me ‘literal’ gut— what sounded good to my belly — go local it said! So we start with the locally sourced mushroom cream vegetarian soup 6+ types of mushrooms with lots of mushroom bits to much on while you enjoy. Then, another special grouper, crispy skinned, on a bed of local veggies more local mushrooms, pea shoots, garlic, radish, fennel, and swipe of herbaceous sauce painted on the bowl. Fresh, bright, delish! And can we squeeze in a bit of sweet at the end? Why, yes!!! — Local strawberry hand pie… Local strawberries, goat cheese filling, creme anglaise, and charred lemon sorbet. The crust was light and fresh, with more creamier forward (less than strawberry forward) filling and the lemon sorbet show stopper. Wonderful! I have eaten at gourmet restaurants all around the world and this restaurant stands up!!! Of course I needed to order the oatmeal cookie martini to sip on as I wrote this review for you. And it is a mind twistingly accurate oatmeal cookie flavor! Wow! Again, cannot say enough good things about the talent of my drink slinging mixologist with a heart who apparently has worked here 16 years — speaks volumes!"

"I had the grilled catfish and it was perfect. My wife had the food shrimps and she loved it again. The price and the part were also perfect. They couldn't go to McDonald's and eat at this price. Everything around the great place if you want good food cheap. The bad decoration and environment looks like they bought an old Shoneys and added some fish restaurant essential and said that 'll do! I rarely advise on decor, unless it really interrupts my joy or it is really out of place with the price of food. Just know if you expect a beautiful place to impress a date, this is probably not the best place for it, unless your date is smart and appreciated someone with good taste and economic thanks, then it is perfect to impress! That ugly, honestly, that is one of the few places that muted me with the ugly! I can usually find something for this category even half-hearted, but this is about everything I can say for the ugly one here. Overall taste and price to impress even if it is not dressed for them. We will come back plans for a trip of 45 miles to enjoy it again. It's so good. I'm sure you won't be disappointed."

"Really a find, although it has been there for a while, we finally have to taste the delicious food. The atmosphere is great, the staff are very attentive and good and friendly and the food is excellent. I've tried many Thai food places in my travels, but never Lao's food. And that was incredible. Flavoring is incredible. The vegetables are cooked for perfection. The meat was tender and juicy. I'll be back soon."

"I was visiting the area for a week and sought out restaurants that were vegan friendly. I was delighted to find this small stylish Turkish cafe with a nice outdoor patio. I tried the maze platter so I could taste a variety of appetizers. It was beautiful! It included two things I had never had before. The ezme consisted of lovely chopped tomatoes with fresh herbs. The smoked eggplant was the star, so rich and flavorful! The platter plus some lentil soup made a fine meal. Loved it so much I went back the next night for more smoked eggplant, plus a falafel wrap with green pepper added, kalamata olives on the side, and excellent tabouleh. Finished off with strong Turkish coffee. Highly recommended!!"
