Savelli's Italian: A Hidden Gem for Authentic Italian Cuisine in Knoxville

Small, quaint and delicious. Stuffed manicotti with real garlic bread, not sprinkled dry garlic powder. Fair prices and a large menu. Loved it.

Sometimes in life you find yourself in a small local restaurant and you get blown away. Tonight was one of those moments for me. I was invited to a dinner with friends at Savellis. I read the other reviews and was skeptical. I was going to go 4 stars at first but then we got desert. So first off, the service was phenomenal. The food was incredible and the desert was off the charts delicious. All around fantastic experience. My only issue was the parking. However, this is not the restaurants fault. They are in a growing area and land locked by businesses. I eventually found a spot street side and it was acceptable. This is an upper scale (price wise) location but the atmosphere and food is worth it. Highly recommended.

Great place for a nice quite date. Huge venue to choose from and good food.

Love this little Italian Restaurant. The food is great, nice ambience and friendly staff. Awesome Tiramisu!

All I can say is OH MY GOD!!!!! As a New Yorker who loves to eat, I try to find the best places whenever I get to go somewhere new. During an impromptu trip to Knoxville, I asked someone for a great place to eat as I'd been eating hospital food for a few days. She recommended Saville, and I must say this is a MUST TRY!!! The place is the cutest spot to visit. You can BYOW, which I didn't during this visit but I'm hoping for a next time. The food, well.....I enjoyed Scallops picatta, and for dessert a Limoncello Mascarpone Cake that melts in your mouth. I was in HEAVEN!!! So, whenever you are in the area stop in and enjoy from what looked like an assortment of delicious dishes to try. And Liz the owner was Amazing!!!

I was not able dine in on this particular day but did order Savelli Sampler. It was excellent. I loved authentic Italian food. You know when you feel the meal ( That warming of the heart), that is how good it was. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant and can't wait to be able to back some evening. There were specials I want try. I watched how attentive the server was toward customers in the restaurant. Excellent job and very helpful and friendly.

I stopped in on a whim at a slow time. The lady proprietors invited me in and fixed a wonderful bowl of soup. I’ve since forgotten which one but, I am certain that their entire faire is worthy of praise on the highest. The dining room is cozy and is Bring Your Own Bottle of wine. There are sheers separating the booth and tables. Very nice atmosphere. The hours are prime time and reservations are suggested. Bring her here with a bottle of your favorite and you won’t be disappointed.

Amazing grilled Mahi Mahi on Ciabatta bread - the fish was so fresh & Fantastic ! My mom said was the best tomato bisque soup she has ever had ! Jacks Pepperoni pizza looked great also & the veggie sub with ham also excellent! Why have I not been coming here more ! ? Nice music not crowded ! Love it ! We are coming back soon ! Good service !
