Cafe Vicolo - Knoxville

I met my wife at this beautiful cafe. Phil and his crew did our rehearsal dinner there, and it was the best food ever. They went above and beyond to make it a special night for us, and we will never forget how much fun we all had. I can’t say enough good things about this place and the people there. Best cafe in the world!

Holy cow. Y'all. This was my $10 lunch. Roast chicken and stuffing with an incredible mix of roasted carrots, brussels sprouts, onions, celery, figs, and chick peas. They have a different incredible special every day. Absolutely unbelievable. The owner is a masterful chef hidden inside a tiny cafe. I am so happy this place exists.

The first time I went, I had one of the best muffins I've ever had. Came back this time to grab something quick to eat and was not disappointed. Everything seemed super fresh and the meats had amazing flavor.

On a side alley, Cafe Vicolo is a hidden retreat. We dropped in for lunch and had a full havarti tart, mixed greens salad, and hash browns. They have a handful of tables in the alley--perfect for COVID-19--and shaded by the surrounding buildings.

The food here is delicious! I love trying his specials and the baked goods are great as well. And the owner Phil is one of the nicest people downtown! It's an awesome local business I love to support!
