The Boathouse Rotisserie and Raw Bar sits in a prime location adjacent to the Tennessee River, right along the path of oncoming bicyclists and pedestrians on the Tennessee Riverwalk. Owner Lawton Haygood—also of Canyon Grille and Sugar’s Ribs ownership fame—secured this spot to bring “food styles from around the Gulf” alongside Chattanooga’s own prized waterway, with a few local freshwater offerings as well. There is a wide array of different cuisines spanning the Gulf of Mexico, so I wanted to see what the Boathouse had to offer—and hoped for no major oil spills (of the cooking variety, of course).
