15 Best American Restaurants in Gatlinburg

“Staff was friendly and welcoming. Restaurant was cute and clean. We got 4 things off of the menu, and they were all delicious! Definitely recommend.“

“Without a doubt the best ribs anywhere in the southeast. Fall off the bone and the rib sauce was out of this world. The sweet potato casserole was the bomb too. Good salad bar also. The staff, waiters and waitresses were kind and friendly. Reasonable prices !!!! I myself will eat there again and again every time I visit.“

“One of my all time favs! The grits and pancakes are on point. Literally never had a bad meal from here“

“A visit to Gatlinburg is not complete without enjoying dinner at The Peddler Steakhouse. Great food, great experience.“

“Awesome atmosphere with even better food! 10/10 recommend ! The staff is top notch ! This is a true hidden gem tucked away from the bustling street but with a view to people watch .“

“Adam was great! Best first time there!“

“We had dinner at Howard’s last night (8-13). We had a beautiful table over looking the water. Our waitress was great. I wish I had remembered her name but was she was from Romania. We were a party of 4, 3 had the ribeye and 1 the filet. All were cooked perfectly. It was a nice way to celebrate my partners birthday! Thanks again for a nice evening!“

“We were there on 7/26 for karaoke and the DJ/karaoke host was amazing!!!! Made our night so much more fun!! Will definitely be back!!“

“Absolutely the best brisket ever! A great place with wonderful food! Skip downtown Gatlinburg and go 5 minutes to this place- you won’t regret it!“

“This is still a really good place and the price is good for feeding a family in a tourist area. I just feel like the food changed from last year when we stopped in. The huevos rancheros used to come in a skillet, this time it was on a plate and wasn’t as good as I remember. However, the pancakes were still amazing!“

“BEST food and games! An absolute must while visiting Gatlinburg“

“Inside Embassy Suites, this is the small restaurant and across from the bar. The food is priced much like the restaurants in town. The portions are large, well worth what you pay. Can order for room service or eat in the restaurant. Ordered fries and had enough for at least 2 people with plenty left over. Can order poolside service at the bar. Same kitchen as the hotel breakfast, so fast and good food.“

“Stopped in during a work conference as I was feeling something light (seems like everything else in Gatlinburg is either pizza, alcohol, bkfst food or burgers) so I appreciated the menu here. Sherri did an awesome job! The restaurant was completely empty, I feel like people don’t realize it’s there, but I encourage you to check it out! Great portion sizes and flavor.“

“We enjoyed breakfast buffet. Astrid our server took excellent care of us. Definitely recommend. Great variety of items. Cook to serve omelets or eggs. Fruits eggs bacon sausage biscuits gravy grits oatmeal bakery items pancakes yogurt toppings. Reasonable priced“
