La Bella Pearl's - Sewanee

What a hidden gem this restaurant is! The dishes are of excellent quality, showcasing Italian and Mediterranean influences. There's also a coffee and pastry shop nearby. While there isn't a formal wine list, you're welcome to bring your own bottle. The salad bar is delightful, and the chef makes a point of greeting every table.

Very nice chef and staff. The food tasted great and was plated similarly. However, our party of 6 had to wait two hours to be served our meal. I would recommend giving this place a try as it was a neat place to eat on the mountain and they were trying to hire more staff.

Went to La Bella Pearl's for the Sunday brunch. It was excellent. This is truly a high end restaurant. The brunch format is to pick an entre from among several choices. The entre purchase includes a really nice salad bar and an omelet and waffle station. The entre choices included nice seafood selections as well as beef, pork, chicken, and vegan offerings. The salad bar is very nice with items you don't typically see on a salad bar. The omelets are good and the waffles are amazing. Belgian waffles in Belgium are not any better than these. My friends that don't particularly like waffles were gobbling these up with gusto. This is truly a high end brunch experience.

I’ve never met a bigger group of snobs. I’m from Nashville so I’ve had a lot of experience in snobbery but you guys win first prize. Congrats!!!
