Restaurants near Big Spring Park

This was our first time at Firebirds. We came to celebrate our anniversary and we enjoyed everything! The hostess was friendly and very nice. Our waitress was very thorough and thoughtful. We loved how they helped us celebrate today. The food and the atmosphere was great! We will definitely be back

We enjoyed an early dinner. The restaurant was quiet with excellent service and wonderful food.

My thoughts after 4 visits and multiple conversations with friends who've also enjoyed meals at Judith: Go now before foodies make this destination dining. Owner Julia Sullivans seasonal menu is straightforward, yet every seemingly uncomplicated item is the best fill-in-the-blank you've ever tasted. She is personally invested (her physician father attended Sewanee as an undergrad, she grew up spending time here) and ever-present, often delivering food to the table herself. And she knows her business down to the last parmesean-dusted-crisp-heavenly french fry. Just ask her legions of fans developed over a decade of running the ever-popular Henrietta Red in Nashville. Those of us who spend on the mountain are pinching ourselves for having the good fortune to watch a culinary star in action while savoring every bite.

Both of our waitresses were very friendly. We got our food in a timely manner. The only thing that would be negative is hearing the waitstaff complain out loud about low tips. Maybe talk somewhere else away from customers.

What a great place to visit on Christmas Eve. From staff to entrees everything was top notch. The scenery out on the deck is amazing!
