The taste of original Petro’s chili and chips has never changed since the 1982 World’s Fair. Visited the Farragut location today and it was excellent. Great customer service was totally appreciated from Lenny. She felt like a friend instantly. Definitely recommend!

Of all the Petro's I've ever been to, this location is by far the best in terms of overall food quality, portion size, generous toppings, and customer service. I work close by and come here often and I have never met someone here who didn't have a smile on their face. Just a great bunch of people slinging chips, cheese, and smiles! :)

This specific Petros location is formative and integral to my very existence and who I am as a person today. You see, I grew up coming to Knoxville each and every summer from the time I was a wee youngin’ (appx. aged 4 to 20) to see my grandparents (who lived on Sallings Rd., which is a stone’s throw from this steadfast Petros) and would gleefully look out for the unmistakable Petros sign while driving down Kingston Pike, after 10 hours in the car from Central Florida, to turn right and speed downhill into my grandparents’ driveway. My grandpa and I would then visit Petros together during my 3-4 week stay in Knoxville each summer, and always we would stop on the way out, back to FL, where my dad would get a cup of chili for the road. I live here now, and if this location ever closes, I truly would riot.

The service is always fantastic but if you get a moment to converse with Amy you’ll be in a better mood than when you got there. Amy always has a smile on her face and truly brings joy to every customer I’ve seen her interact with. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AMY!!!!
