Restaurant of the Week

This was a tough choice…

IL Primo takes it. I have been here multiple times and it never lets me down. The food is bomb and the service is top-notch. They have 2 locations here in the Chattanooga area which are Northshore and Ooltewah. You can check out the website/menu here Italian Restaurant Chattanooga | Ooltewah | Il Primo Restaurant.

Check out a few examples from the website. I was so excited to eat there againthat I left my phone in the car…

Have you tried IL Primo?

A place we want to try Grabel’s Bagels! Locally owned and proud to offer hand-rolled, NY-style bagels made with high-quality, non-GMO ingredients right here in Chattanooga. 

They keep several coffee shops around town stocked with all the favorites — Everything, Plain, Cinnamon Raisin, and more! Check out the website grabelsbagels.com/locations to find a place near you.  Have you tried it yet?
