Had the prime rib dinner. It was more well done that I like but had great flavor. Potato was excellent. Green beans had no flavor. Drink menu was excellent. I want to try this place again as they had so many interesting things on the menu and I watched other people really enjoy their food. The view of the Koi Pond outside was great.

Good service, waited 1.5 hrs for food, only 4 other people eating, prime rib awful overcooked. Did not want to send back after long wait. Will not be back

Beautiful set up with the pond water being pumped onto the roof. Food was 100/10. Ribs cooked so well they fell off the bone and didn't need sauce. Marinara sauce was so amazing they should sell as soup. Cheese curds had spice, garlic knots soft, & catfish was cooked so well. Josh was friendly and quick and gave great service. 100% would come back over and over.
GO HERE!! COME CHECK THIS PLACE OUT!!I only say that as i don’t live here and went here on a whim. If I was a local, I’d try and keep this place a secret so I could keep it all to myself. ?This is a long winded, detailed review. Long story short, I wish I could rate this place higher then 5 stars. It was that good.I don’t know how this place is rated only 4.3 stars when you got ol red rated at 4.1 and this place absolutely smokes that place.Me and my wife were out here on our honey moon and found this spot one evening. Our server was Josh and it was a little later in the evening. From the time I pulled up, we fell in love with the place. It was set back off the road, and sets over a pond which they pump the water up onto the roof and it trickles down the roof back into the pond but it gives it quite the nice effect. We were lucky enough to get sat up against the windows so that was our view from the inside as well, which couldn’t have been better to us. There is a lower parking lot for those who are older/handicapped that don’t want to park in the upper lot and walk down. Definitely plenty of free parking.—Appetizers—we got the catfish bites, cheese curds and garlic knots as appetizers, and I can’t rave about this place enough. I’d drive 8 hours back here for this place and wish I could have them pack it up and bring the restaurant back home with us. Josh stayed on top of things and made sure we didn’t want for anything. I’m not normally a fan of garlic knots, but these were amazing. They came with marinara sauce, but my wife couldn’t make up her mind if she wanted the sauce or not as the garlic knots were so good on their own. The marinara sauce should be on the menu by itself. We could eat that by itself with a spoon. It’s amazing. Only ever found one other spot that has marinara sauce that good where I wanted to eat it plain. Then there was the cheese curds. Normally I’m not a fan. My wife is. These had a little bit of spice to them and were cooked perfectly, also came with marinara sauce so double win there. Absolutely recommend them as well. The catfish nuggets were perfect. No hard crunchies, perfectly cooked and tasty. My wife doesn’t like catfish and she liked them more then she did the cheese curds. Her favorite of the 3 was the garlic knots, then catfish then cheese curds, but all 3 were 5/5 in my opinion and I’m glad we tried all 3 of them as they nailed it.—Entrees—I got the dry aged steak with side salad and sweet potato fries. The steak was cooked perfectly. I cook a mean steak and this steak placed did it just like I wanted and had better cross marks that I haven’t mastered yet ? but I’d go here before I go back to Ruth Chris steak house. It was so tender and flavorful. The sweet potato fries were waffle cut and were better than any other waffle fries I’ve had. Side salad was good, had the fancier style lettuce in it. Only thing I would have added was egg and not many places have egg in their salads.My wife got the dry rubbed ribs, Mac n cheese and sweet potato fries. Her fries were hot and fresh like mine, we’re both glad the bbq sauce came on the side and the ribs didn’t need it at all. I grudgingly say they do better ribs than I do on the smoker. Twist and pull the bones right off the meat, you could eat the bone and marrow inside if you felt so inclined. She did a few bites just to show me how she perfect they were for her. Some argue ribs need to have a little bite to pull it off the bone, that’s not my opinion. If I can do the twist and pull the bone out, you nailed it. Flavor wise, they were on point. I like a place that doesn’t cover their food in sauce so you can taste the food. If it needs sauce, it isn’t cooked right.Cons.-MacNcheese was good but not on the same level as the rest of the food.-And it’s a bit weird the chairs are on wheels.Only reason we didn’t come back while we were out here was because we wanted to try new places every day. Unfortunately, this was day 1, and everywhere else we went after this just didn’t compare to this place. Amazing experience..Parking: Upper level parking lo
This place rocks! All personnesel exceptional special thanks to Lori, Jordan, Terry, Ivy, John, Chris, Cathy …love it!

Friendly, professional service and terrific food with a diverse menu.Nice bar and attentive bartenders. Lovely views in a unique setting. Beautiful grounds.
We had a huge group of 14 during spring break. We waited about 45 min no biggie, our server was great and very busy but maintained his area well. The food was good and we liked the outdoor water feature and fish. Will go back if ever in Gatlinburg again.
Best filet I’ve ever had not just once but every time I’ve been there. Can’t ask for better.

If you like prime rib with the texture of cheap shoe leather and the taste of cheap hotdogs, this is your place. Baked potato was tepid. Salad was fine. All of the food was unusually salty. Bartender did her best to provide excellent service. She is clearly overworked.
