Savelli’s has incredible service and food. I just celebrated my birthday there and they made it special. I highly recommend this place to anyone.
Great gem in Knoxville and the owner is from Brooklyn. Sauce was good just like back home in NY. I’ll be back in August when we drop Ty to University of Tennessee.
Great Italian restaurant! Best to make reservations!!!!! Had the Mama Savellis chicken, great wine sauce, great flavor! The sampler with a great homemade marinara sauce. Basket of garlic bread. And the lemon Italian cream cake 😱, so good!! The sweet tea has fresh mint added to it, the best tea! We would definitely come back!
Sometimes in life you find yourself in a small local restaurant and you get blown away. Tonight was one of those moments for me. I was invited to a dinner with friends at Savellis. I read the other reviews and was skeptical.
I was going to go 4 stars at first but then we got desert. So first off, the service was phenomenal. The food was incredible and the desert was off the charts delicious. All around fantastic experience.
My only issue was the parking. However, this is not the restaurants fault. They are in a growing area and land locked by businesses. I eventually found a spot street side and it was acceptable.
This is an upper scale (price wise) location but the atmosphere and food is worth it. Highly recommended.
I don't understand why other people that have left reviews like they're Gordon Ramsay or something special but EVERYTHING we had was Amazing! I had a greek salad & Mama Savelli's chicken with artichokes and sundried tomatoes with white wine sauce. My party shared a bruschetta and the taste of Italy. Everyone enjoyed everything tremendously. Will definitely be back again.
I’m not one to leave reviews but this place was too good not to.
My partner and I stopped in after a business trip. I had heard of the place before from a friend and was so excited to finally get to try it. For starters the atmosphere was great. I enjoyed the privacy our table had as well. My partner got the Chicken Piccata and I got the Shrimp Pasta with Crab and Alfredo Sauce. Both dishes were phenomenal. The garlic bread came with small pieces of garlic and was delicious as well. The only complaint I have is our waitress wasn’t overly attentive especially considering only us and another man were there at the time but overall she was very kind.
I definitely will be returning here!!
The food is always amazing! Make sure to have a reservation. I had the Grouper Piccata, hubby had Lasagna and throughly enjoyed. Daughter had chicken Alfredo. The garlic bread is top notch with small chunks of garlic.
The best Italian I have ever had was totally awesome and Becky was one of the greats thank you. We almost did not come because of the reviews I am so glad we did
