At Lenny's Sub Shop, named Best Sandwich Shop in 2010 by CityVoter Knoxville, team members bake fresh loaves of bread every morning and slice deli meat to order for each sandwich. Lenny's Sub Shop has been active in Knoxville for 14 years and it has grown to reach diners in more than 15 southern and midwestern states. Its signature 7.5-inch sandwiches cradle a half-pound of meat and cheese, the 10-inch holds 3/4-pound while its 15-inch Heroic subs hold up to a full pound. On the lighter side, the 5-inch holds 1/3-pound. Hot pepper relish blended from diced cherry peppers is available to add zing to deluxe clubs, roast-beef sandwiches, and veggie subs. New items include the chopped BBQ sub, potato salad, wraps, coleslaw, and a large variety of chips. In addition, the shop also serves kids' meals.

From the two bars at Bart's Lakeshore, panoramic views of Chickamauga Lake stretch for more than 5,000 feet toward distant mountains and the city skyline. These are among the many enticing surroundings at Bart's, where major sports unfold on plentiful LCD televisions, and patrons can play video-game versions of classic games like golf and bowling. On select Friday and Saturday nights, the 21-and-up smoking-friendly bar even converts into a nightclub where live DJs spin Top 40 hits and set their favorite sea shanties to techno beats.

Before busting a groove, chow down on snacks and entrees from Bart's epic menu of classic bar food. Complemented by spirits or cold brews, said feasts range from 8-ounce beef tenderloins wrapped in bacon to hand-tossed pizza topped with ground beef, mushrooms, and housemade marinara. Given its perch right beside the lake, Bart's also specializes in succulent seafood, including helpings of blackened grouper and jumbo shrimp stuffed with crab meat.

Pisghetti's keeps the spice of life alive and vibrant with a full menu of Mediterranean and Italian dishes. Set your flavor sights on the 12-ounce Angus prime rib Italiano ($13.95), simmered to succulence in Pisghetti's signature Italian au jus, or twirl a fork around a heaping plateful of spaghetti with marinara sauce ($7.99). After getting platonic with olive oil, garlic, oregano, tomatoes, onions, olives, and feta, a medium greek pizza ($10.99) romances taste buds with a succession of tasty slices. Cajun shrimp pasta ($10.99) sautéed in garlic and served over spaghetti shouts down grumbling stomachs, which are then surprised when they're sweetly poked by desserts such as baklava ($2.25) or tiramisu ($4.50).
