We decided to return to Knoxville from Nashville via US 70 South instead of our usual route using I-40. When it came time for lunch, Laurie got on her smart phone and searched for possibilities in Sparta Tennessee. We were excited and hopeful when she located a Greek Restaurant as decent Greek food has eluded us since we moved to East Tennessee.
Upon being seated we immediately checked the menu for Greek options. Actually, there weren’t very many…no surprise given the restaurant’s location in the middle of Tennessee. However, Yanni’s menu does feature a Greek Gyro Sandwich…something that we’re always looking for and the item that we miss the most.
We asked our very helpful and friendly waitress a couple of questions. Is the gyro meat carved from a loaf on a split? (No) Does the house-made tzatziki sauce have any noticeable garlic flavor in it? (Some…but not a lot) Our waitress loves garlic but she said that their customers don’t like too much of it. She did say that the gyro meat is grilled and that the sandwich is good…
Based on her input, we both ordered the gyro sandwich with extra tzatziki sauce and a side of chicken rice soup. ($6.99 each plus $.50 for extra sauce) The soup was very nice and so was the gyros sandwich. While not as 'garlicy' as what we enjoyed in Chicago when we lived there, this was best gyro sandwich we’ve had anywhere in Tennessee! We will be back!

Take the back road to Burgess Falls though Sparta so you don't miss Miss Marenda's! Excellent, unique atmosphere, food and service. Don't miss this one if you like great food and unique, local restaurants!

Drive up or walk up to Mountain Sno for a cool refreshing shaved ice! Lots of flavors available with additions of crème makes it really great.

these are by far the best doughnuts, they are dangerous because you want to keep eating, had to stop going since I just couldn't stop at 1 or 2, just kept eating.

okay Italian style food, our family ordered three different items with drinks and salads.
Italian style, flavours not particularly authentic. pasta average at best, large house special pizza was big and thick, a lot of cheese, light on flavour, salads uninspired, bog standard, small for the price, dressings outta a commissary bottle, only fair. value average wouldn't rush back, though service was friendly and the place is clean, parking free n easy

We are a home cooking restaurant. Hand patted burgers, homemade veggie soup, all of our BBQ is smoked in house. We have a variety of salads and subs. Daily plate lunch specials all listed on our website.
We stopped here for dinner and the food was really good. I had hamburger steak with mashed potatoes and pinto beans. The beans were excellent. I really liked the steak as well. My only complaint is that the service was a bit slow.

We enjoyed our meal. One of the few places
In this town you can get a drink. First, the chips and salsa were good. They also give you refried beans with cheese. I had a burrito and a enchilada with beans and rice. My wife had a burrito . The service was very fast and efficient. All in all, no complaints.

Great PLACE to enjoy a superb meal. Local owned and operated and its good to eat out in the country and not in the busy hustle and bustle. Good food quality and clean place. I enjoy eating here and its nice to do business with a family owned operation where the owners are present.

Imagine a quiet hotel restaurant at noon with a view of a 2-lane road and an owner/cook/server that is friendly and knowledgeable. Add to that good, flavorful food and take away the city. Now, you have a good idea of this restaurant. Definitely worth the 15 minute drive from Sparta or Smithville.
