Last night, we ate for the first time at 201 Cafe and the food tasted great! My husband had the 201 Burger and regular fries. I had the Alfredo Pasta with Steak. He said it the burger was very flavorful and the fries were seasoned and cooked perfectly and that he would order it again. I have been known to be a slightly picky person. I was a little apprehensive about my order because the description of the Alfredo sauce mentioned garlic. I was worried that it would be too garlicky….but it was not….it was excellent! And, the broccoli was just right (not too firm, not too soft). We are headed back on Saturday to take my mother for brunch. We cannot wait to try the Stuffed Challah French toast and the Louis Armstrong Eggs Benedict-style breakfast!
I had the Charcuterie board and the Sweet Chili Ahi Tuna. Cheeses were really good, the meats, not so much. One reminded me of eating spam. The Tuna was ok, I think next time I would try something else. The wait staff is really something to rave about. They are amazing, as was the live music. The place overall just has an amazing feel. One thing I would like to see is a larger wine selection. The selection offered is a little small for a wine bar.
Went there for brunch and the food was so good. The atmosphere is amazing and they have live music on some nights. The servers are so nice and attentive as well. So glad Oak Ridge has a great option for brunch. Drinks are good too.
Best Veggie Reuben! Draft Local IPA Beer! Clayton, Warren & Josh work hard to make sure everyone is happy. Outside dining too. Excellent all around experience.
Classy place great for a date night a little pricey
A pleasant break from big chain eateries: cozy, elegant, sophisticated, and yet with a distinctive small town feel. A delight. (I hope Oak Ridge supports it and it can thrive as it's a needed addition.)First impressions on lunch: tasty and enjoyable! I'm an occasional vegetarian, and their Southern Reuben, essentially a Collard Greens sandwich (Lol I know!!!?) was quite good. I suspect this is no small feat. My complements to the Chef.The music venue seems to be FANTASTIC. I'll most definitely check it out this weekend.Recommend??? Absolutely and without reservation! (Great nations support the arts & music venues such as this one are badly needed.) The food is good. The setting is as cool as cool gets. Cool as JAZZ. Service was cordial and prompt. Cost, a bargain as it offers so much to our community .... Five stars and five thumbs up! Glad to have it. HM(Update: the live show was the BOMB! The band was tight, and in the pocket all night long. What a GREAT performance!!! (And their song selection, ????)Fellows rocked it. Had the young ladies dancing. Great show.)
Great food.besting tasting ever..but for a wine bar it's way to over priced. At 44 for a bottle . I have been to alot of wine bar never paid this wine bars are big on getting you to drink more so they have half price for second bottle.but this place is nice..will go back but not buying wine.
Staff at the 201 was just absolutely amazing the food was very good the Ambiance was perfect it was not a lot of noise. If you want to enjoy something out an upscale with a little bit of a throwback 2 yesteryear I would wholeheartedly recommend this Cafe.
Went for lunch. The food is fantastic. Price is on point. Service was great. Handicapped accessible. Military free drink. Outside seating. Live music on Friday and Saturday nights. Nuts on menu but not in cooking process. Vegan options.
Just what the Dr. ordered...a nice place in OR to hear music, drink wine, & have some amazing appetizers. They also have full dinners but we chose to have a few small plates (Feta Bake, Panzanella, etc.) When you see the total makeover the owners have done inside this place, you would never believe it was once an ice cream store! Well done!
