Our History

The Willow Tree is located in a small town in West Tennessee in one of the oldest buildings in Obion. It was built in 1848 by the founder of Obion, Mr. Wilson.

We have tried to keep the building as original as possible. The building was purchased in 2015, opening the restaurant in 2022 after spending a few years restoring the house. We happily display some of Obion's historical items alongside a collection of Blue Willow dishes, the namesake of the restaurant.

We offer a taste of fine dining in our area, with everyone being welcome to join us in a relaxing atmosphere. Our hopes are that it will become a destination place for all. We do have private dining rooms available for private events. The Willow Tree offers a variety of steaks, chicken, and seafood dishes. Special desserts are made in house. Fresh baked bread served with our house made Peach Butter.

We hope you consider joining us at The Willow tree.

- Rodney and Debbie Underwood, Owners

Very unique and different atmosphere than most restaurants. Staff was very friendly and attentive. The owner made it a point to welcome everyone personally to the restaurant. The food was excellent. The cake was awesome. It's a little pricey but well worth every penny. We'll be...

Amazing! All the food was fresh and so incredibly delicious! I highly recommend this place. We were impressed with the entire menu that we ordered. We will be back! Thank you to Rodney and the other staff for making my husband’s dinner so special!

We moved to Tennessee one year ago and this is the BEST dining experience we have had here. The owner, server and food were all top notch. This sweet place compares to any big city eatery. If you are ever in the area this is a must stop dinner experience.

Great Location! Fantastic food! Great service! King Prime Rib, fried green tomatoes, and the desserts were excellent! Highly recommend!!

Amazing doesn't do this place justice!! The best cuisine you will have within 100 miles. Steaks cooked perfect, oysters fresh and flavorful. Do not miss the...

Beautiful antique, historic building that housed many past businesses since the late 1800s. Delicious ribeye and loaded baked potato. Enormous dessert cakes. Catering as well.

The food was amazing and the service was outstanding

Amazing food and staff. . We will be back

steak was tough and was medium rare. they had no bake potatoes then charged 4$ for a side salad. wasn’t worth the hour and half drive

Talented chefs, friendly staff, lovely decor… overall, a great dining experience. I’ll be back with friends & family!

We were visiting from North Carolina for our grandson’s graduation. Our son and his wife treated all of us - a group of 13 - to a wonderful time at your charming restaurant. It could not have been better. The service, the setting and the food made for a great family celebration....

Had the best meal here this evening at The Willow Tree...everything was seasoned to perfection! Ben had a ribeye and steak fries and it looked exactly as the photo shown above ...I had the dozen grilled jumbo shrimp...an order of wild rice, and the steamed vegetable...

this is just a Fine place to dine. Classy Place.

It has been a few months since my visit but I have no doubt it's the same. I live in New Hampshire, very close to Boston Mass so my husband and I have access to very high class establishments and The Willow Tree in Obion TN ranks above all restaurants in NH, Boston & all over...

I have been in the restaurant business most of my life. The way you build and keep business is with excellent customer service. I used to train my servers in my restaurants, you don’t have to have the best food, but you do have to have the best customer service. Now the food...

What can I say. My wife and I have been in to dine at The Willow Tree many times. My wife has attended numerous functions catered by them and my work had our company Christmas party with them in 2022. It’s just one of my top 5 all time favorite places to dine. How many places...
