Forte's Restaurant

My salmon chowder was excellent. Very good rolls, crispy at the top. My end cut prime rib was done perfectly. The horse radish could’ve been stronger. Idaho baked potatoes like all great restaurants. My wife also had the prime rib and thought it was outstanding. We were too full for dessert, but they looked great.

We were on a girls trip in Crossville Tennessee. This was our last day and the last restaurant we went to. It was also our favorite the food was delicious. Abby was our server, she was an absolute gem. She met all of our needs told us all about the restaurant she was very special.! we also had dessert, which was fantastic! This place is a must visit! We did not have reservations, so we had to wait which was fine! I hope someday we will be back!!

I am from Indiana. I had Forte’s on March 16, 2024. This is by far the best and greatest restaurant in Tennessee! The food was amazing! The atmosphere was perfect! Crossville has a hidden gem with this place! The shrimp Vera Cruz is so amazing and I wish they would make the sauce available!

Wife found this place to eat for her birthday dinner and it was worth every penny. Atmosphere is relaxing the lighting is smooth and people are friendly

The food was absolutely amazing, the service we received was excellent and fast! Will for sure be coming back here!

The Chicken on the Square with pasta is probably one of THE BEST meals I have EVER had!
Lisa Marie is a fantastic waitress too.
The only down side is needing reservations and I don't realize I want to go until Saturday. They say walk-ins are welcome but reservations are HIGHLY recommended.

Food is always exceptional 😋. Katie, our server was great 👍. The cocktails 🍸 were perfect. Only problem was we were to full to have their wonderful deserts. Maybe next time. Make sure to call early for reservations!

You can't go wrong here. Everything on the menu is top shelf fantastic. And if you're lucky enough to have Lisa Marie be your server, well, you're in for a treat. She is amazing. Go give yourself some mouth pleasure at Fortes. Mr. Ken Forte even came out to greet us. What an awesome place. I included a picture of my brother Marshall enjoying the Milky Way Cake for dessert. We both had the prime rib and it was on point.

Wonderful dinner and overall experience, would highly recommend. Staff was pleasant and accommodating, owners were mingling with the patrons and greeting every guest, amazing dinner.

Seriously love this restaurant! The special thatci got tonight was the Trio Dinner, consisting of 3 BBQ Ribs, a chicken breast, and 6 grilled shrimp. Sooo delicious! Victoria made sure my meal and sides had no dairy (due to my allergy its a great peace of mind) and she joined us in a pic 🙂

Great service, excellent meal. Good French onion soup, had the Seafood Symphony, the scallops were cooked perfectly and the lobster ravioli pasta with creamy crab sauce tasted homemade, finished off with coffee and a perfect cannoli for dessert.

We have been coming here for years and enjoy diner here for a special occasion or just a night out with family and friends. They have a full service bar with a respectful wine list. Service is always pleasant and the food is the best in Crossville. You really should make a reservation because it gets busy as soon as they open the doors.

Very nice experience! Good food, nice ambience, and excellent service from Lisa Marie. It was our first time at Forte's as we are new to Crossville. The restaurant is great and we will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

Food was so good! Service was excellent! Overall had a great time. Recommend the baked Cajun chicken.

We had a really nice evening with good food and service. I had the Mediterranean Chicken and it was very tasty. The portion was generous enough to share with a $6 plate fee.

Aly, our server was attentive without being intrusive - very nice. I would recommend reservations during the dinner hour.

We love this place all the food is excellent. I love the fried grouper, perfectly seasoned and not greasy. The sauce that comes with the mussels is outstanding. My wife loves Mama's Tortellini and also the confused shrimp. Great local family resturant.

In town for a girls trip and several people recommended Forte's. We called on a Friday to see how busy they were and couldn't get in until late, so decided to make a reservation for Saturday evening instead. Must be good to be so busy! The menu had a wide variety of choices including prime rib, chicken, seafood & pasta. We both had the Forte special which was prime rib (10 oz) & garlic butter shrimp. The prime rib was cooked perfectly and delicious. The shrimp was not bad, but the rib was definitely the highlight. One of us had the penne pasta with oil & garlic which was very good! Salad and bread were both freshly made. Dessert was milky way cake, moist and not overly sweet which was pleasantly unexpected. We also tried the Italian lemon cello cake - a must try! Our waitress was very nice and the owner stopped by to ask how everything was. They were all very friendly & welcoming. Would highly recommend not passing this place up!

Love going there the food is always so good the service is always excellent a little pricey for us so we go on our birthdays and our anniversary....

We came here for the first time today for lunch. We enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and the fact that the tables aren't all packed in and crowded, menu with great food selections, and attentive waitress. I had the grilled salmon and it was quite tasty. There's not a huge selection of good restaurants in Crossville, but I'd say this one is very good, and we'll definitely be back.

Great drinks...I will say it again GREAT drinks. Great food.
