“Such a great place! There's just not anywhere else like it around. I've not seen anywhere else we can pull up, have our pup on a leash, grab a beer and not even bother with putting our shoes on or walk uphill forever. It's definitely the best place with the best vibe on the lake!!!“

“Inside is clean and rustic lots of signs and nick nacks. Look in the case as you walk in the door for desert options! A super friendly momma type waitress greeted us as soon as we walked in. Know that neighborhood lady that everyone calls momma? Yea, that's her! Food was amazing. I had fried chicken livers, fried taters and onions with pinto beans and corn bread, mom had thr meatloaf with a baked tater and green beans. The price was great for as much food as they put on the plate. Will Def be back for sure!!!“

“1st time doing to do pickup order through the app other night. Spent $65 plus $5 tip. Even though I asked if it was everything & she said yes. Missing 2 items. —I know I should’ve check it but I didn’t. Dining in is usually great; just make sure if ordered online, just to check it. 👍🏽“

“Pals is the best burger and fries available today. The business model ensures every visit to Pal's is identical no matter which location you use. This location is no exception. My favorite location is the only dine-in location in Greenville!“

“I’m in Florida and a dear friend is home in Dandridge on hospice and he’s craving Honeybaked Ham. I called Jennifer and her team sprang into action and delivered my order to my friends house that day!!! May God Bless you and your business. Thank you.“

“Everyone that worked there was very nice. They treated me and my friend like we were family. The waitress made sure we were comfortable and didn't need for anything. I loved how she refilled our drinks before we even had to ask. The cook done an awesome job on the food. It was delicious! I also like how it stays open 24 hours. Definitely will go back.“

“This Pals is has the most amazing employees. My aunt brings her dog Mocha and they go above and beyond when I buy him his sides of bacon. My mom and I go every morning to buy biscuit and gravy for my 18 month old. He won’t eat it from anywhere else. My mom’s favorite coffee in town is at Pals on West AJ Hwy in Morristown! So amazing!“

“I've dined here often and never had a bad experience though life is never perfect in every way every day. Wait staff excellent, best fresh, crisp salads, inviting atmosphere, seating very accommodating, food served timely. Another tasty and satisfying experience at Little Dutch. Highly recommend.“

“Liked the place very friendly staff and the food was excellent. Can't wait to try there biscuits and gravy“

“We were passing through and decided to stop since we no longer have a Shoney’s in our hometown. The food was great , service was great, and my kids loved getting to try their first hot fudge cake!“

“Thursday 13,2026
I would love to give a huge shout out to a very specific worker that has raised my standards! Her name is Jocelyn B! This was the BEST service I have ever received and I am 25 years old! You were an absolute rockstar! She made sure to tell me the deals that we're going on that I had no idea about, She made sure we had everything we need. She never forgot anything and never missed a beat! I also wanna give a shout out to whoever was cooking that night because the food was phenomenal. Perfect temperature. The restaurant was also beyond clean! Thank you so much for this amazing experience. This is the only Applebee's I will be going to! GO JOCELYN!💜8-13-2026💜“

“I will update this after I've dined in, but this review is solely based on a quick takeout order for two ribeye meals and a tenders meal. The person I dealt with at the bar was kind, helpful, and efficient.

The ribeye meals had a ribeye and baked potato that came with a little cup of sour cream, chives, bacon I believe.

The ribeye was maybe half inch or less thick, and cooked medium rare, but no real sear that I saw. The seasonings were muted, but that could be intended to focus on the flavor of the cut. It was okay. I'm a bit of a steak snob though so don't let my bland take on it ruin your experience.

The baked potato was great, foil wrapped, oiled and salted perfectly. I think the takeout container was too small to actually fit what they might normally put on it for dine in so they get a pass there.

The chicken tenders and fries my kid loved, so good job. He's picky with those.

I think we got a little mini wheat loaf or something with some whipped bitter, and that was fire. Loved it. N

Next time I go, I'll eat in and actually give a more thoughtful review, but this one is based on what I had available.“

“I recommend the waitress Monica Barrera at the IHOP in Panorama City Calif as she gives such great and wonderful service. She asks if everything is ok and always comes back to give refills. This is much appreciated. Best wishes from the original Johnny Blaze, and "may the Blaze be with you."“

“It had been quite some time since I had eaten at a Captain D's. Unfortunately, I remember it being much better food than what we received this most recent time. Food was cold and bland. I ordered the baked tilapia with baked potato and broccoli. The broccoli was overcooked and soggy, the potato wasn't done, and the fish had no taste. The rice was the best part. My husband and son ordered the fish and chips basket. It tasted better than my meal, imo. The only saving grace is there was a very kind lady working the register up front and that's the reason I gave as many stars as I did. She was very sweet and hospitable.
The dining room was clean. The only problem was there were no paper towels in either restroom. I can think of many other ways I wish I had used the $40+ that we paid for lunch for 3 people. Not worth it at all“

“Wanted to give a shout out to Wayne , he was an excellent waiter , very attentive and polite , we appreciate his kindness!!“

“Our server provided a great experience. They made us feel like we were regulars and made sure to double check our orders were correct before and during the time they were in the kitchen. Our drinks were never empty and our food was great. I wish I had caught the servers name but they had piercings, long hair, and he smelled amazing. If every server is like that then you will have a wonderful experience. :D“
