RJ's Courtyard serves the best baked green tomatoes in Tennessee. We frequently visit this restaurant and always look forward to our meals and the attentive service. The establishment is very clean, and the staff is friendly and quick to respond. While the food may not be gourmet (for those who criticize it), it is absolutely delicious and comes in generous portions. My husband and I live in Knoxville, and even thoug... View all feedback.

What Jay M dislikes about R J's Courtyard:
As for the food, my wife ordered the broiled shrimp, and I had the popcorn shrimp, both accompanied by the spinach maria. Luckily, our meals were cooked well and arrived in a timely manner. The spinach maria was quite delicious. The food is good, but you’ll have to put up with the service issues to enjoy it. View all feedback.

We were looking for a restaurant with a private room for a celebration and chose RJs. With 15 adults and four children in our group, the Tennessee room was ideal. The food was fantastic, and the rolls were served hot and fresh. I ordered the coconut Grouper, which was exceptional and cooked to perfection. The customer service was excellent, and we will definitely return.

I decided to check out this restaurant while I was near the airport, and I was very pleased with the inviting atmosphere. They have a spacious bar area that hosts a happy hour. The restaurant was spotless, and the service was excellent. I started my meal with a refreshing mixed salad and some warm rolls. For my main dish, I chose the blackened grouper accompanied by a baked sweet potato, which was served hot and perfectly seasoned. They also offer some tempting desserts; I went for the warm apple crisp topped with vanilla ice cream and caramel. It was a generous portion and absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely return to experience their happy hour!

This is a very nice and clean restaurant as you first walk in, you see this beautiful fish tank which catches your eye immediately. Then the hostess showed us to our table, walking us pass the bar which was all lit up with lights, it was a beautiful bar, stood up from the floor of the restaurant. After getting our drink order I ordered the salad,was a little different it had fried sticks instead of croutons in the salad had cheese ,tomatoes ,cucumbers, lettuce , I didn't really care for the fried sticks. I ordered the courtyard grouper it was an 8 ounce portion of fish fried golden with ,mixed vegetables steamed broccoli , green and yellow squash. That was a good choice. O yes then dessert homemade Hershey Bar Cake it was served on a hot bed of fudge with vanilla bean ice cream. This is a place I can recommend and we will return soon , The atmosphere in this restaurant is really pleasant. I would like to eat at the bar next time,that is a beautiful area.

Service from Andrea was outstanding! The Blk. Grouper was fabulous as well as the Berry Salad! My dad said it's the best Tortilla soup he ever had as well as the mashed potatoes and gravy!
