2 East Tenn. restaurants top Southern Living list

In its 2018 reader's poll, the Barn at Blackberry Farm, located in Walland, and J.C. Holdway in downtown Knoxville, made the top 10.

Two of the south's finest restaurants are right here in East Tennessee, at least according to the readers of Southern Living magazine.

In its 2018 reader's poll, the Barn at Blackberry Farm, located in Walland, and J.C. Holdway in downtown Knoxville, made the top 10.

"The connection between them goes beyond location however. Chef Joseph Lenn started J.C. Holdway after a long career at Blackberry Farm where he made the resort a food enthusiasts’ destination," the magazine wrote.

The Barn is located on Blackberry Farm's exclusive grounds, and offers what they call Foothills Cuisine and fine wine. It's open to both guests and non-guests of the resort, aged 10 and over.

JC Holdway is on Union Avenue, and serves up homegrown, wood-fire cuisine, and is an ode to the Chef's late uncle who loved good southern cooking served with style.
