Restaurants near Roaring River Recreational Area

We've been here several times and are never disappointed! It's a hidden (literally) gem in Cookeville. I love to bring our out of town guests to 1854. It's a warm, inviting spot to enjoy some delicious appetizers and well crafted cocktails.

This is the first Christmas that I didn't get to be with my whole family for a home cooked meal, so I thought I'd try going with my boyfriend. Thank you, we enjoyed it.

Alberto’s is one of our neighborhood restaurants and is dependably good. The food is always good and the desserts are outstanding and alone worth the trip.

Our waitresses were attentive and helpful, the food was great and the atmosphere was quaint.

A hidden gem! This small family owned restaurant tucked away across from Gallatin High School. They said they’ve been here since 2008, and it is family owned and operated. The ambiance is unique, and you feel like you’re transported to Chicago. They serve very authentic Chicago style food. Hotdogs, Italian beef sandwiches, homemade pasta and pizzas. This should be on your list! It’s a hidden gem!
