47 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Gatlinburg

“Excellent food my family recommended we come here and try it. Did not disappoint“

“A smaller, cozy spot where the wait staff provides outstanding service while serving great home-cooked food from the kitchen. I always notice how clean the dining area is and Trishs passed with flying colors. Keep up the good work and we will always return when we’re in the Gatlinburg area!“

“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!“

“Ask for Mary she is great“

“Great food friendly staff great service!!“

“I can not put into words the experience we just had at this restaurant. I have had unbelievable meals in the past, but this is #1 on my list. From the time we arrived, atmosphere, staff, and food, I felt like a queen. Everything was timed perfectly. The food was exhilarating. I closed my eyes, and I could taste every ingredient involved. If you ever come down to Gatlinburg, I 100 % recommend visiting. It's totally worth the money!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Great food friendly staff great service!!“

“Amazing Beer & Cider! Their pizza was also Amazing. I will definitely be going back.“

“Do you like your griddle cakes about 4 inches tall??? Then this is the place for you. Tons of pancake spots in Gatlinburg, this one is exceptional. We had the griddle cake, the waffle, the candied apples and corned beef hash. I’m not sure I knew what a griddle cake was, but it’s basically like a pancake and some corn bread started a family together. Delicious! Fat and fluffy and savory and buttery. The candied apples were sweet and dripping with sugary butter and were so heavenly on the griddle cakes. There’s just too many options! Candied apples, syrup, whipped butter. The waffle was just as good the griddle cake, golden brown and crispy. And a little savory compliment to all of it was the corned beef hash, it was fresh and not greasy and you could taste the potatoes and onion and beef individually. The service was prompt and friendly, the atmosphere is a fun old mountain log cabin, and the music is great. Real mountain strings with heart and soul, not like some of the faux nouveau mainstream country crap they play in the tourist spots all over Gatlinburg. One of the great breakfasts of my life on one of the great vacations of my life in the Great Smoky Mountains. If you need delicious breakfast in this neck of the woods this is the spot.“

“Our food came out so quick and was delicious!“

“A friend and I got to go orders, the people were so friendly while we waited and the food was amazing even after waiting to eat until we got home. The breakfast virtuous were amazing and well seasoned turkey sausage, and crispy tater tots! My blackberry pancakes were light and fluffy and the whipped cream was FIRE!!! 10/10 loved this place!!!“

“We are normally dry red wine drinkers. However their fruity and mostly sweet (some are tart) wine here is amazing. Had to buy the blueberry, but so many we tasted were delicious! We will probably order more varieties when we get home since we are flying out.“

“What a fun experience. The place was super busy, but after a short wait, we were able to belly up to the bar and start our taste testing. Our bar tender was awesome. Super friendly and a barrel of laughs. We loved all the great samples, and they had a great deal going on, so we came home with plenty to drink. If you visit all 3 locations and get a stamp, you get a free T-shirt. We will definitely come back for another visit..“

“My favorite cider here is the cider doughnut ! Place was very pretty on the inside and clean. I had Jeremy as my taster when I got engaged last year and he was there again tonight for my bachelorette! He’s always so kind and so fun so go for him! I hope he’s there when I’m here for my honeymoon!! Highly recommend their cider“

“We just enjoyed pizza at luigi's! It was amazing!! Tommy the owner was super nice and friendly! Ardo was our server and did a fantastic job. We really enjoyed talking to both of them! We loved the Christian music playing! This is authentic and delicious pizza which takes a bit to make but it is so worth the wait!! They use fresh ingredients, the crust is done to perfection!!“

“We always eat here when we are in town! Their pot pie is amazing!! We were there one night when they were very short staffed ( last year )and he actually gave our waitress money out of his own pocket because she always showed up when she was supposed to and complemented her in front of a lot of customers. I will always support that! ☺️“

“Adam was great! Best first time there!“

“What an amazing experience we had on 9/8/26. After a trip to Cherokee and seeing all the fisherman out catching Trout we really wanted to try it. We stumbled upon the Trout House and it had great reviews. We were immediately greeted by a gentleman and the service was on point the whole dinner. Hush Puppies and Chips delicious, Trout Fritters delicious and the Blackened Trout and Cole Slaw were five ⭐️. It was nice to try something new. We will be back!!“

“We live in the area but to be honest after my hubby was unimpressed with the quality and service when he ate here during our first year we had not been back. Then we realized it is under new ownership and we have been missing out for two-years! I had the Morning Mist Chicken Sandwich and it was wonderful. Hubby had the cheese steak which he said was tasty and very generous with the meat. Service was quick and friendly. Excited to have another lunch option nearby.“

“Exceptional melt-in-your-mouth filet, Valente our server was delightful, great cocktails, fresh salad. Been to every steakhouse in Gatinlinburg and tonight we found the best!“

“Solid 5 stars! Amazing filet, prime rib, Neva’s potatoes, bread, and cheesecake. Everything was top notch and service was great as well. We will definitely be back!“

“Very authentic, reasonably priced, great food! Fried chicken and plantain fries were great. Large menu of food and drinks, plus the enthusiastic service can't be beat! highly recommended.“

“Service was fantastic! They seated us right away. Our waitress was very understanding of my food allergies (even checking with the kitchen to be accurate) Food was superb. They did forget our appetizer, but wasn't needed after seeing the size of the entrees. Each staff member was helpful with each other and customers. Great team & great price for the location :D“

“We went the first day of Bear-varian festival. It was really fun and the food and drinks were delicious! Lots of cute themed shows during the day and the fall decor was adorable. The mountain coasters, treetop walk, and zip lining made for a memorable day. During zip lining I just couldn't do that part where you step off the ledge to drop to the next line, so the woman guide (I think her name was Charity?) walked the stairs with me instead. The other two guides, Nick and Reid, were great and kept us safe and laughing with silly jokes. It was a great time all around and you couldn't beat those mountain views!!!“

“The dough they use is amazing❣️“

“The pizza was great the only thing was we ordered alot of pizzas and we get more chesse pizza when we ordered more meat pizzas, but it end up workin out because most of the kids wanted the chesse pizza, so Thank everyone for puttin in the work to make all them pizza for my family, oh and everyone there was so nice and friendly!!!“

“We visit Smoky Mountain Brewery frequently. It is one of our favorite places in Gatlinburg. The food is always great along with the service. We always eat in the bar because our favorite server is Oana from Romania. She always remembers what beer we drink and when she takes our order she never writes anything down which always amazes us. She is very attentive and always pleasant to talk to. One of the reasons we always enjoy our visits to the Brewery.“

“Stopped for lunch with my son and we were not disappointed. The restaurant was clean and the staff and our waitress was very friendly. We did not have a long wait. The meat portion was larger than expected. The coleslaw was the best I have ever had out and the garlic butter biscuits were good as well. We shared the banana pudding for dessert and enjoyed that as well. No complaints! It is also awesome that it is a short walk from some of the hotels down here at the entrance of the park.“

“Pizza was as fantastic as always. Every time we come to Gatlinburg we hop in to get a slice or two of their pizza. Don't sleep on this place. It's tucked into the second floor in the back. No special gimmicks, no crazy tourist trap crap, just flat out good pizza.“

“Indoor dining is fantastic food & service!“

“Food was good definitely recommend trying the breakfast tacos. 10/10 they also come with potatoes and to my surprise mixed with purple potatoes. I had never tried them before but I’m glad I did. Service was great a lot better than the other breakfast place we tried.“

“The food is amazing! The service is great here too! I had the beef brisket and my husband had the ribs. It was so yummy! It was close to our vacation rental and parking was a breeze!“

“Sammie was an amazing waitress! She was very sweet and accommodating at a time when the restaurant was filled to capacity. Delicious food and better service!“

“I loved it. It has the most amazing views. It is located on the top of a hill. I give location a 4 star because you can't easily walk from the hotel to the shopping areas. However, there is a trolley pick up you can use. Bonus as soon as we pulled in the drive there was a bear hanging out. The pool area is gorgeous.“

“Outstanding service by Marcus!! Good food & pleasant atmosphere resulted in enjoyable dinner. Appreciated not feeling rushed through meal & friendly interaction by all staff.“

“Big shout out to this restaurant and manager, Riley and his team! Fantastic service in catering a taco bar night for our family reunion in Gatlinburg. Food was wonderful and aplenty. Great value for what we received. They are very accommodating also in making sure the gluten free corn taco shells were even fried in a different fryer. Very considerate in offering this service for my daughter even though she is not allergic, Riley offered to make sure all was gluten free...nice extra step. Riley was very timely and communicative. Thank you so much for a successful and yummy dinner!“

“I definitely recommend going but based on others probably not on the weekend. We went skiing yesterday (a Monday) and we were able to park in the 2nd parking lot up top (there are 3), paid $20. One thing that I was unsure of but now know is you don’t have to buy the fun pass if you want to just ski so it was nice because we saved money just paying for our kids to ski (older kids) and we watched. Even though it was man made snow, they had a blast being their first time. Everyone we encountered from helmet and ski rentals to concessions and outdoor workers were very nice too. It got pretty busy by 3-3:30 so best time in my opinion is a weekday first thing when it opens but be careful driving up the mountain if you do, very narrow with an immediate steep ditch and we passed a car that fell off the road on the way out and got half stick which would be a big bummer.“
