Davis Wayne's

I had the absolute please of checking out this restaurant on a Friday evening. I discovered this place from a tik Tok video sent to me advising of must try places in Chattanoga TN. This restaurant is located in Cambridge Square in Ooltewah, Tennessee. Davis Wayne’s has a prime location on a corner in the square. I am not sure if the restaurant takes reservations, but we walked in and had no problem being seated within a few minutes. We were seated at a table next to the most lovely couple. We talked with them about he food. They raved about the chocolate covered strawberries and even had two sent to our table so we could try them. This is an example of the family like environment present at this restaurant! Not only are the staff a pleasure, but so are the patrons! It appears that all staff do all jobs. While we did have a wait staff, everyone chipped in to help. If someone noticed that my glass was empty they filled it up! It was refreshing to see staff that actually take pride in what they do. Regarding the food: I tried the wings with a side of Brussels sprouts and fried corn. My date had the salmon with Mac and cheese and potatoes and onions. All meals come with corn bread. The wings and salmon were amazing! I would order both again. My Brussels sprouts were cooked to perfection, and they are my favorite side item. Overall I enjoyed my meal. Some things to note: they don’t deep fry any of the food, they also do not cook the vegetables in pork! This is a big deal for me since I am not a red meat eater. Now let’s talk about those strawberries that a guest ordered for us! Oh my gosh- when I tell you it was the best chocolate covered strawberry I have ever tasted. The strawberry itself was so big and full of flavor. Adding the amazing chocolate to it only elevated the taste! You have to try these when you visit! They are dipped in house daily! This was hands down one of the best dinning out experiences I have had in a long time. It was refreshing to walk into a restaurant and feel like you have known the staff for decades. Not only are they personable, but they also pride themselves on providing recommendable customer service. I highly recommend checking this spot out if you are in the area!

I love that this restaurant is Black-owned with delicious food and great service. I had the roast, macaroni, broccoli, and greens. I’m picky when it comes to cornbread but loved theirs. My brownie dessert was a yummy way to end my meal. All the wait staff were so friendly. My waitress was very accommodating. I was seated inside but close enough outside to have a nice view. I just loved the ambiance. If ever in Chattanooga again, I’ll definitely visit again. Highly recommended.

I don't have the words to thank the Davis Wayne's crew enough. They took a semblance of a vision and gave it life. They literally made our 25th anniversary vow renewal absolutely perfect. The timing on getting food out was excellently done to take placr right after the ceremony. The decorations were so beautiful and detailed. Everything was cohesive and exuded loving care.
