The Dining Room Reviews | Jonesborough Restaurants & Bars

Very good food. A little more pricey than I was expecting, but still good. Â My only gripe was that the meal didn't come with any bread, and when I asked for some, they charged me for it, in addition to a meal that already seemed a little expensive for what we got. I've been to quite a few Cuban places and that was a first.

Cuban cuisine in Jonesborough, Tennessee? It may not be wholly autÃ©ntica, but I would eat here again in a heartbeat. My pesto-chicken sandwich was perfectly prepared, and the service was friendly.... This place is obviously a local favorite!

Wow, not bad at all, considering we are talking rural Tennessee. :) Â

If you are tired of burgers and fries, try this.

I was impressed in that this was 'real food' and the prices were reasonable.

They have a sort of Cuban-inspired menu (whilst not exactly real Cuban) which is heavy on the black beans and rice thing, but did a pretty good job overall. Â I would definitely eat here again.

Cute environment, small, cozy, not much privacy if you need that. Â

I had a black bean, pork & rice dish. Â My wife had one of the chicken sandwiches and for once the chicken breast was properly done, moist and not dried out.

Would definitely eat here again. Â The lunch menu was a bit limited in scope, but considering it was a small place, that is to be expected.

For the traveler, this is a low risk place to eat if you like this genre. Â Not exactly the sort of food you would expect to find in Tennessee, but it worked for me. :)

It was a bit hard to locate and I missed it driving by the first time. Â They might want to improve their sign.

The Dining Room easily has the best food in Jonesborough as well as the Tri-Cities area. The food is all made-to-order, delicious, and very reasonably priced. The soups are homemade from scratch with fresh ingredients and they are some of the best soups you'll ever try. The sandwiches are great too.

People I've eaten with there have said that their Cuban sandwich is the best Cuban they've ever eaten. Also, their Portabella Mushroom sandwich is the best one I've ever had.

The one negative thing about the Dining Room is that the service is slow, but personally, I like to go to a restaurant and hang out and have a nice quiet and calm meal. When you order something, they basically cook it fresh for you, so just know that it is not fast food when you go in there to eat and make sure you have some time to just relax and enjoy your meal. Also, they have strange hours, so make sure to check and make sure they are open before you go. Making a reservation is a good idea as the place is small.
