I had high hopes for this place after seeing on my google news feed that this place had the best burger in Knoxville, but when we got here my expectations were tremendously exceeded! As un-American as this may sound, I’m not much of a burger person, but I have been thinking about that glorious garlicky/buffalo-y burger I ate for days now. On to the staff, I WISH I got our servers name, he was fantastic! Even though we were sadly those people that come in super last minute which I don’t like doing, but even so, they were so gracious and kind and our server was so accommodating, the other lady server was the sweetest! She seen our one year old was ogling our food and brought him a banana all chopped up(def a mama!). The menu is diverse and there is something for ANYONE, yes even you vegans lol. Our server whipped up some awesome shakes as well, they were perfect. We will be back, many times over. Hats off to Inskip grill, you really are the best burger joint. PS. I LOVE the owner/management's comments to the reviews on here, they even make light of the negative reviews with grace. Hey, can’t make every Karen or Ken happy...but we definitely were!

Inskip Grill, Fountain City, has the Best Hamburger in Knoxville, TN. Portion size is huge and the burgers are so good. Service was on point and quick to receive food. It’s my go-to for a great burger. Give them a try.

The waitress was phenomenal, never hit bottom of a drink, friendly, and patient. The food was good. Better than good, honestly. It was the best burger I’ve genuinely ever had. The cook, David, suggested it saying it was his favorite. The sweet potato fries were killer as well. We will definitely be back. The whole staff was friendly, place was clean, and this quickly turned into my new favorite place to eat. Highly recommend.

Relaxing, great price and prices. A chocolate shake that so tasty you can't believe you did not order it sooner. My inskip burger was yummy. Onion ring were perfect golden and crispy. Our chicken wing were so worth it. A must to stop and try. Give this place a try. Has games, a bar and grill, plus ice cream. Clean place, welcoming upon enter and restrooms are clean and roomy. Plenty of seating and parking. Bring the whole family, even has a trivia night.

We are patrons from when the original Inskip location was open and have been so pleased every time we come to Inskip Grill at Fountain City. During dinner tonight we took a trip down memory lane. When this location opened I was pregnant with our now 20 month old daughter. And I can say, EVERY TIME we have been to Inskip Grill it has always been a great experience filled with delicious food and excellent customer service. Some folks complain about the price, but in this economy it’s expected when you’re getting good quality beef, handcrafted burgers. I believe wholeheartedly that the price reflects the all around quality and flavor. I usually go for the KMA (the pineapple-habanero sauce is FIRE) or the Bearden Hill if you like blue cheese and blueberries with bacon. Or simply go for the Creat your own single burger and you won’t be disappointed.

Nice little burger joint with a variety of options to build your own burger. The food was hot & tasty(there were also other options besides burgers), service was good/ Ericka did her job well & was friendly, the place was clean with colorful decor. The parking lot is shared with other businesses so it can get crowded. The game machines were a cool touch/ I even won two prizes but some of them them just took the money but weren't working even though the lights were on and there wasn't a sign or something to let you know it was broken. Besides that, it's still a good place I recommend to try and worth the 5 start rating.
