We’ll get the tortellini with a side of live entertainment, please. Downtown Chattanooga’s latest restaurant, The Playlist, is bringing back the dinner + a show model.

Located on Market Street, where the former Leaping Leprechaun operated, this eatery not only took over the space, but it’s trading in the Irish themes for Italian ones. Folks can expect dishes inspired by Italian cuisine, served by staff that doubles as performers.

During your meal, your food will be paired with the latest hits, and delivered right to your table by your servers as they lip sync and dance.

Tickets not only get you in, but includes non-alcoholic beverages, garlic knots, a tossed garden salad + your entree (cocktails and spirits will be available for additional purchase). Diners can purchase their dinner and show times online, starting at $45.

This spot is also perfect for a family outing. Before bringing the kiddos, we’re highlighting some of the restaurant’s family policies:

  • Only children six and up (out of precaution for performance equipment)
  • Strobe lights + haze machines are used — be mindful of sensitivities to light and air quality
  • Songs used will be from the Top 40 charts — songs with adult themes or explicit language may be used

This dining experience is one-of-its-kind in Chattanooga.

Bonus: Celebrate the grand opening on Saturday, Oct. 19 with BOGO drink deals from the full bar + extended hours from 12 to 10 p.m.
