Once a beloved dining destination, this restaurant's quality has noticeably declined, leaving loyal patrons disappointed. Formerly praised for its shrimp and grits, hearty hot pork rinds, and welcoming atmosphere, recent visits reveal lackluster food, slow service, and unfulfilled orders. Despite a charming vibe and friendly staff, the overwhelming country music and inconsistent offerings have marred the experience. Some enjoy the live music and cozy settings, but frustrations over wait times and mismanagement linger. What was once a cherished establishment now struggles to keep customers satisfied, prompting many to reconsider future visits.

What Jada Mosciski dislikes about Carmichael Inn:
This could have been a great spot to enjoy a drink before dinner, but the focus was clearly on the bar. It was too crowded for them to serve drinks to everyone in the dining area. The food was average, and the waitress was very pleasant, but it felt like they weren’t really interested in accommodating dinner guests. View all feedback.
I used to enjoy this place A LOT! I 've been a faithful customer for a couple years now, At first the food was all amazing and the service was great too. But as time has gone on it has gone downhill fast. First I noticed that the shrimp that were large and juicy were replaced with smaller and poorer quality ones in their Shrimp and Grits. Then it continued on where I would order the amazing hot pork rinds with beer cheese dip to the last time I was there it looked like they just opened a bag of regular rinds and they were not hot at all and less than 1/2 the amount. They have messed my order up more than once and when I let one of the owners know the response left the feeling they don 't really care. Once I placed my order and after almost an hour wait the waitress said they forgot to check on it. My most recent visit there were only about 8 customers on an early Saturday evening and I heard the waitress tell the customers they didn 't have a lot of the things they normally served. When I asked for the manager because of my very disappointing order I was told it was their day off.I feel really bad because I want so much to like this place, but It 's gotten to the point where I 'll now dine someplace else. It 's a shame because I have taken at least 12 different people there to share the experience but I don 't any longer because I 'd feel embarrassed. I really wished Restaurant: Impossible would have helped them out instead of Z 's Fish House that only lasted about a year after they were in Loudon. We need a good place to dine here.
Absolutely the best veggie selection around, and all home cooked. Tast Tasty. And try the Wharf Street Steakhouse, adjacent and same folks.
Their 50/50 Burger and Fried Green Tomato BLT are a must try ?. Check them out.
The atmosphere could have been enjoyable if it weren’t for the overpowering country music. I spent $5 trying to play a few classic rock songs on the jukebox, but it was so loud that the staff rejected my selection twice. People at another table even thanked me for attempting to play something other than the awful country music. As for the food, it was mediocre—nothing to write home about—and everything, including the pasta, fries, and okra, was seasoned the same way. The service was incredibly slow; we even considered leaving, and we’re generally very patient. Our waitress changed during our visit, and nobody bothered to inform us about the delay or that our food was almost ready. I highly doubt I’ll be returning.
