Crema's Take

This beloved Knoxville breakfast destination wins people over with genuine hospitality and ridiculously generous portions—think enormous pancakes and crispy, butter-laden waffles that live up to the hype. The cozy, fireplace-warmed atmosphere and surprisingly accommodating staff (they'll seat you at the bar for faster service after a grueling road trip) make it the kind of place where families and friends naturally linger, and the creative specialty omelets and waffles prove the kitchen takes their craft seriously beyond just volume.

We loved it. They told us the wait would be 45 mins on a busy Sunday (their system for adding yourself to the waitlist online was down) but we decided to stick it out. Only ended up waiting 15 minutes for a table. I had the keto omelet and my dad had the eggs Benedict. Both were really great, would absolutely come again.

Got in after an 18hr drive to bring my daughter to school so she wouldn’t drive alone and we went to the front and the hostess said my daughter and I could go straight to the bar for quicker service. Stacie helped us and made great suggestions since this was our first time here. She’s a rockstar by the way. We had veggie omelettes and French toast and Mimosas which were the absolute best we’ve ever had. ( The French toast & Omelette lol)Very well worth the trip.

By far the greatest breakfast we’ve had in Knoxville so far! The restaurant itself is awesome, the staff is super friendly and helpful, the food is fantastic. Cannot stress how well we enjoyed our visit!

Riley was great taking care of us. The food was phenomenal and the prices weren’t bad either. The atmosphere was relaxing and cozy and they had the fireplace going. Everyone was real friendly and seemed happy to be there. We I’ll definitely be back.

Ridiculously good breakfast food! Enormous pancakes, crisp, buttery waffles, generously filled omelets with a huge variety of flavorful fillings. We tried the Funky Monkey waffle, Jake's Scramble, the All-In omelet, the Garden Veggie Omelet, and deep fried Deviled Eggs. We also tried a biscuit with sweet cream butter and berry compote, the breakfast potato casserole, and the creamy grits. Everything was outstanding, with the only so-so item being the deviled eggs. Oh my goodness, I almost forgot to mention the in-house roasted, bottomless, french-pressed coffee! To die for! We asked if they sold the coffee in bags, but alas, not yet. All the staff, from the host to our server and everyone we passed on the way to and from our table were so friendly! We live about 2 hours away, but we are already making plans to come back! Even though it was SUPER busy with the football game going on, the wait time wasn't bad at all (maybe 30 minutes). Scrambled Jake's and their lovely staff deserve SO MUCH praise. After the first few bites we googled to look for more locations, in the hopes they were a franchise!
