I drive from Chattanooga to eat here as often as I can! The food is delicious and the serving sizes are ample. The turkey bacon is so delicious! Normally I don't like turkey bacon. The fried chicken is what my husband always gets!! It is crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. I can not tell you enough good things about Jessica's Place. Don't waste your time on the chain restaurants where you get the same thing all the time. Try the homemade food that never disappoints! Also don't forget to get some fresh banana or strawberry bread for home. The strawberry bread is so good. Chocolate brownies are my usual desert to go and they are delicious!Family friendly, great peaceful atmosphere, and the staff are wonderful! I will admit it the place looks kind of questionable from the outside, but inside provides a welcoming table waiting just for you!

Stopped here on our way through Tennessee for lunch and was very delighted. Jessica's Place has a large Southern menu and this country feel food hit the spot. The sandwiches were hearty and filling. Would definitely recommend dropping by for a bite.

Food and service was amazing! And the desserts by the register are so good and fresh.I’ve read other comments on here about the wait time and yes the wait time was long but people have to understand that homemade food is not quick to make. If you want quick unhealthy food, go down the road and get fast food.My personal experience at Jessica’s place was amazing and I drove 40 minutes there and i would drive 40min again.Also stop by Amish farm market when you’re done if you love fresh homemade ingredients. They’re all good people.

Cute atmosphere minus all the junk piles around the outside and “hidden” in every corner of the inside. Other than that it is a quaint, clean (in the entry way, dining areas and restrooms), cute place to eat that will remind you of your Grandmother’s house. Friendly service although would have preferred the waitress to check on us more frequently. Had to go ask for a to go box and for our checks as it was our first time visiting and had no way to know you pay at the counter. Very affordable and the food was delicious!

AMAZING!! Discovering this little jewel of a family owned and operated restaurant is a treasure! Wonderful and very friendly atmosphere with wonderful & delicious food with hearty portions to fill anyone. Must try the dessert, omg if you have the room to share their "largest in Tennessee" banana splits!! It's so big and the 4 of us couldn't finish it!We returned for breakfast and our meals are so affordable for our group of 4. So satisfying and tasty.It's owned by Jessica, Rick and their daughter Rebecca. Absolutely wonderful sweet people who have the best smiles and friendly conversations.We will return on our next trip!Kid-friendliness: They have a nice selection for children.

We have passed this place several times but always on Saturday when they are closed. So glad we went in today. We had the best meatloaf that either of us have ever had! The fried okra was very good as were the biscuits, and Mac and cheese. The potato salad needs some work though as does the mashed potatoes. They literally mashed a potato and put it in a bowl lol no milk or butter or anything but it was still good. The dessert though won the night. The strawberry cheesecake is by far the best cheesecake I've ever had and my bf said the same of his peach cobbler! It was very price friendly. Can't wait to go back! The menu is very large.

The food and service was excellent, the prices were fair, and the atmosphere was also great. The waitress was kind and accommodating, and the food didn't take long to come out. They had relaxing music, the interior was warm and it had comfortable lighting. The only thing that bugged me was the booth seat was uncomfortable. It was old, so wear and tear caught up to it. Not worth a full star downgrade; more like a 1/2 star. But it overall it was a pleasant place. I highly recommend it. (Try the Mac N Cheese burger)

The outside of this place leaves you wondering about the inside, for sure. Its a pickers dream come true but not a good look for a restaurant. Glad we gave it a go bc everything was awesome. Food tasty and seemingly fresh, clean atmosphere inside the building, and very friendly service. The menu is large... nearly too big to choose from, if that's a thing.

Great Restaurant. Great food. Great Staff. Amish like Restaurant. The folks that work there to include the owners are very friendly people, always making sure you're having the best time and experience. Yes, the place might be a little crowded, but that is due to construction on the back, but they make sure it doesn't affect the quality on the food. Love this place, we'll definitely be back.

Jessica has an energetic and loving radiance that makes every meal at her restaurant wonderful. Her menu offers diverse options with fresh and wholesome ingredients. We eat here often, and we've never been disappointed. I highly recommend this restaurant to everybody!

Last time we visited we waited 30 minutes before our order was taken, the server was rude and ignored us. (She was also the owner Jessicas daughter.)We couldn't even get drink refills. So we haven't been back since. This was a couple years ago. Today I drive by, and the place looks like it has become a dive. There is a 48' trailer in the parking lot which they have covered with wood siding. There is a giant tent covering what looks like an entire household of belongings. And so much junk in the parking lot, theres hardly room to park. I have always thought, if a place can't keep it clean, inside and out, I wont eat there. So this evening, we ventured on down the road to Steel Wheels.

My husband and I drive about 30 miles to go to Jessica’s Place about 3-4 times a week! It’s a peaceful drive with breathtaking views of the mountains! It’s a homey/family atmosphere that you don’t get in the cities! Food is great and worth the drive and it’s very consistent. The sweetest family with great family values! FIVE STAR food, service and atmosphere! This is our favorite breakfast…it’s a work of art that is absolutely delicious!!! 😍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I stopped in here on 10/17/21 after hiking at Benton Falls. I ordered the grilled salmon without the seasoning, a baked potato, creamed corn, and I got one Texas toast & one biscuit. My coke was a little watery, but the food was awesome! After seeing the strawberry cheesecake in the pictures, I got a slice to go. It was also delicious, but smaller than the one I saw pictured. My only other complaints, were that the floor was a little slippery, and the employees could have been a little more friendly & attentive. But if I'm ever in the area again, I'll definitely pop in.

Do not be deterred on what the outside looks like. This business is family owned and everyone has their own part. Jessica was our server. Not only was she friendly and kind but also prompt with our order. Out of our group of 8, 5 had the All You Can Eat Chicken (Friday's Special) which they raved about. My personal favorite was the sweet potato fries which were the best I have had in a long time. Stop by and check this place out, there are so many delicious options on the menu.

Nice family owned restaurant with decent prices and very good food. We tried their Fajita and Club Paninis with home made potato chips - both very good! Their banana split was AWESOME!

We stopped here to eat lunch on the way to Tennessee. There was 12 of us & they did a great job getting us our food fast. The food was absolutely delicious! We sat outside because we had dogs traveling with us & they even took good care of our dogs bringing them water & dog bones. Jessica & her husband were super friendly! We will definitely go back!
