Updated Review: I adore this place, but haven’t been in a while. My husband and I decided to stop in today and have lunch and when I tell you that the food and service were even better than the first time going, I mean it! Jennifer was an absolute pleasure. She was training a newer waitress and had the most amazing personality. She made us feel right at home. They kept our drinks and sauces filled and offered new suggestions to try. Wonderful customer service. You can tell Jennifer takes pride in her job and she’s great at it. Now let’s get to the food!! The fried pickles were hot, crispy, salty, and fresh. I, of course, had to get the double dipped wings again and they were so crispy and fresh. The seasoning is perfect and they were so hot that they had steam rolling out of them. Just absolutely amazing. Still my favorite wings to date! Even down to the chips and salsa, or the fries that my husband got...everything was very well seasoned and you could taste the freshness. Rita, who is the GM, can THROW DOWN in the kitchen. This place exceeded my expectations yet again! Wonderful spot and the perfect atmosphere for the family, a lunch/dinner date, or even a group setting with friends and colleagues! I love this place. The food was fresh and amazing. The double dipped wings were some of the best wings I’ve ever had. They were crispy and not overdone on the inside. The coleslaw was so refreshing. The food was hot and very well seasoned and cooked. Even down to the fried pickles I was so pleased. The service was quick and super friendly. If you haven’t tried it then you’re definitely missing out.

I picked up a takeout order; Every staff member I interacted with; from the Hostess telling me where to pick up, The server I almost ran into & the bartender- They were all so nice ! The music and laughter was telling . I got home and my food was 10/10!!! I’ve lived in ringgold for 10 years & this is my first time trying Jefferson’s & I’m mad I waited till now to try ! Will definitely be back

Tried the loaded fries, Mac and cheese, fried pickle chicken sandwich and traditional wings with half dry rub and half double dipped! Everything was great and the tables were roomy. Service was kind.

Oh my heavenly Jesus. He was in the room today!!! Server Ashley took such good care of us, she knows what she is doing! She was efficient, helpful, and SUPER kind. Mushroom swiss burger- He says it was the best mushroom swiss burger he has ever had (he gets them all the time) Steakhouse onion ring burger- She substituted bbq sauce instead if steak sauce, 9.8. She never finishes but today she ate that burger down. Crispy Jalapeno burger- A burger advocate, gave it a 8.4 on a scale of 1-10. Also added bacon. Fried Pickle Chicken sandwich- I personally love chicken sandwiches and the flavor, crisp, and everything about this burger was so delicious. Potato salad- We are VERY picky on potato salad and rated it a 9.8/10. Was so delicious the flavor was crazy. Corn nuggets- The reason we came here. The best appetizer. Get two baskets for four people. Gone within the first two minutes. Everything about our visit was so amazing. Thank you Ashley You deserve high tips and a PROMOTION!!!!

I was in Chattanooga running some errands and decided to stop by Jefferson's for lunch and saw that they were closed (I haven't been there in 4 years) and was told they had one in Ringgold. So I stopped in and had there wings and Fries combo ( I recommend their Nashville hot and lemon pepper) and was not disappointed. great service and price. I actually like this one better than the one close to me in Dalton. definitely going back because its worth the extra few miles.
