Absolutely amazing service and atmosphere. We went for the All you can eat crab on Monday nights and for once someone did it right. They keep the crab coming. We had 7 people eating crab and none of us waited in between refills. The crab was freshly prepared and easy to crack and not soggy from sitting in water. They also have fries or red potato’s as a side. (I got the potato’s but next time I’ll do the fries. They were good! This is not a seafood boil and seasoned down but it was good just the butter! So worth it! (Picture does not reflect how much crab I put down )

A must stop in Livingston. Every chance we get to stop it never disappoints. Our last visit we ordered Brussel Sprouts with bacon and balsamic. They were cooked to perfection... nice and crunchy! We also ordered the Ahi Tuna. Also cooked to perfection light and tasty. Watch out for the wasabi it’s very hot (home made and very good). The service was excellent, unfortunately I don’t recall her name (sorry). We’ll be back! They also offer live music, which is an added bonus.

We were here on a Sunday evening. We were seated right away, super friendly, attentive and quick server all in a cool atmosphere! The food was delicious, husband got a burger and fries. I got the bbq pork nachos. The nachos were awesome, if I had to say anything it would be they could’ve used a few more toppings but were great as is! Will absolutely come back if we’re in the area again!

Bread super fluffy and fresh, and a large portion of of meat and just the right amount of mustard! This is also my first time Trying The Steel Coop! So good definitely hit the spot! I’ll be back... And The cajun chips so good also!

Came down from northwest Indiana to spend time with my Dad for Father’s Day, drove over from Burkesville. Our server was a younger guy, he was excellent. Recommended a beer, Dad loved it. He was spot on with service. He brought drinks without being asked, was listening for any needs we may have, brought us chips to taste prior to ordering. I had the Caesar wrap, great quality ingredients. Above and beyond, food all around was fresh, hot, and portioned correctly. Great job!

The Steel Coop was awesome.. They offer great customer service, amazing food and a very inviting atmosphere. Crab Legs tasted great and we ate way too many. And the desserts were top notch, especially the cheesecake!! Highly recommend!!

Vacationing in TN for the first time ever and found this place the very first night. Honestly, there are not many other places if you want to have a drink with your dinner. We have been there two days in a row now and are thoroughly impressed. Very friendly staff and the food has been better than expected. If you are in the area, definitely, give them a try.

This Steel Coop was a great find for us. I already like the one in Livingstone, and the Marina location is just as good for food and service. This location is set in a very pretty part of the lake & we shall definitely go back.
