Review:

Foodies looking for the best in local cuisine should head to J.C. Holdway, winner of the 2013 James Beard Award for Best Chef Southeast. J.C. Holdway represents an authentic Knoxville dining experience. Chef Joseph Lenn originates from Knoxville and brings his love for Tennessee cooking to every plate. The restaurant’s name honors the chef’s late uncle, Joseph Charles Holdway or “Uncle Joe”, who had a passion for finding only the freshest ingredients to use for his cooking. J.C. Holdway continues those traditions, sourcing from local farms and vineyards. The kitchen and bar open every evening except Sundays.
