27 Best American Restaurants near Kodak

“Our waitress was super friendly. Drinks stayed full, clean bathrooms. We had to wait a moment to be seated as no one was at the stand when we first approached, but a lady with a radio called someone up immediately. Food arrived quickly and tasted great.“

“I love the chophouse! However, we don't usually go to the when located at the Sevierville exit. We went in and watched the Masters at the bar area and just had a great time. The bartender was super attentive. The food was wonderful as always, the place was clean and it is always a delightful experience. I can't say enough good things about the chophouse.“

“Best restaurant in the Smokey mountains. A class act, so be prepared to be spoiled. Great ambiance, service oriented and the food Outstanding . Be prepared to be blown away. At the end of it I was SHOCKED when the bill showed up. The prices are so reasonable for the quality of food and service.“

“We came to the Junction 35 to celebrate a birthday. We got seated in the back of the restaurant and was told that the bartender would also be our waitress. Kelly was phenomenal very attentive to us a party of seven as she also was the only bartender, and was taking care of the bar that was 3/4 of the way full that night, all of her recommendations were great and the drinks were 10/10. That being said aside from how amazing Kelly was the rest of the staff was very rude, and seemed irritated by any request. Even when simply asked can we get waters to the table so that it can help out the bartender who is slammed busy . After we got our food, we wanted to do a distillery tasting before they closed. The two people who were handling the distillery tasting that night were very irritated by the fact that we waited until after we ate and decided to do a tasting at 8:45 when you close at 9. We were told that the tasting would be complementary if we ate there and they wouldn't let us do it before our food came so to come after our food came still with 15 minutes before closing, and I have such disgruntled service was not very pleasant. Overall the food and the drinks were great, and if we came back, it would be specifically to see Kelly her personality was 10 out of 10 with everything being thrown her way that night, her smile and simple conversation helping us with decisions of food and drink definitely made for a great experience .“

“Vegetarian options: Amazing speed to change the vegetable options for my child with food allergies. Marley was highly equipped with the knowledge of food preparation.Kid-friendliness: The server Marley was a great representative of your company and I hope you are aware of the exemplary customer service she provides. Kudos to her ability to make our dining experience amazing.“

“To dang busy. Can't even walk around in the place for all the rude disrespectful tourists that come to this town. They will run you over and push you out of the way. But other then that the food was great as always and the service was good as always.“

“Love going to Fuddruckers any chance we get. Unfortunately this one is now the closest one to us which is about 4 hours but the burgers were excellent as always. The fixings bar is always a highlight. Service was quick and friendly as well. Will definitely be back next time we are in town.“

“We just stopped by for a small bite, and both wound up getting soups. I got the Chicken & Dumplings & my wife got the bean. I truly believe it may have been the best Chicken & Dumplins I've ever had! The seasoning was absolutely perfect and there was so much chicken that there may have been more chicken than Dumplings!My wife said her bean soup was good, but it required a bit of "doctoring up" to taste great. She added a good bit of pepper & hot sauce to make it too her liking. She said it was a little bland without it.Unique decor with MOSTLY ALL benches instead of chairs. But as my wife said, it made you feel like you really went out somewhere special to eat because the decor was so interesting!“

“My first visit to this gem was maybe on an unusual pretext -I am a stand-up comedian, and performed on a showcase there. The entire staff on duty were friendly and helpful, throughout my visit. I met the GM, who is outgoing and engaging with guests (and talent, too). The food I had (Cajun shrimp there; two desserts to-go, highly recommend the banana pudding) was well prepared, tasted great, and the prices were reasonable for the quality. I enjoyed some adult beverages, inside and outside during the show, and the bar team were knowledgeable and quick. There were some regulars there, who gave me great feedback about the comedy night at this spot, and several said they'd come back again. It is so rewarding to have a local East Tennessee business make such a welcoming space for the comedy community, and to have a mix of people out on a Tuesday night who appreciate some laughs with their dinner or drinks.I'll definitely be dining here again ?“

“It’s exactly what expected, good homemade food with good ingredients. Nice owners, as well. We also got frozen meals, I will update when we try them. Also it’s good value, definitely better than going to a chain restaurant.We’ll be back whenever we’re in the area.“

“We had a problem there with other guest the workers saw and move us to a different table the manager came n apologized to us n gave us a discount. Customer service was top tier, went back twice after that customer service was again top tier love it there .“

“My wife and I had a wonderful experience this morning. Our server, Justyn provided stellar service, great attitude and anticipated our needs. Jennifer, the cook, did phenomenal on the food, especially since she was the only cook available at the time of our visit this morning. This was one of the best visits we have ever had at a Cracker Barrel.“

“I started off by making a reservation for 7:30p.It was my boyfriend’s 60th birthday and I wanted to take him out for a nice dinner while in town. I highly suggest making a reservation, it’s not mandatory but highly advised.Upon arriving, and checking in our reservation wasn’t ready. My bf and I decided to have a drink at the bar while we wait. It took about 20 minutes after our reservation time to finally be seated.Once seated our waiter came over and we started with a fresh drink. My boyfriend ordered one of their signature cocktails.The Chop House has two fireplaces, which are open on both sides. There’s one on the main level, and another on the upper level. The walls are open so you can see both fireplaces from where I was seated. The room itself is very warm and cozy with the fireplace going it added a nice ambience. The walls are a dark wood, and the lighting is on the dim side which makes it quaint.There’s plenty of free parking, and they have handicapped parking . This place is Wheelchair Accessible.The Chop House can accommodate Groups, such as Graduation Celebration, Birthday Parties, Corporate Functions, or Family Gathering, even Team Sports Events, ( call ahead.)The Chop House offers a nice “Gluten Free” Menu. They are also“Kid Friendly,” all children are given a fun placemat with games to play on it, and their own personal kids menu.I started off with their Deviled Eggs with Brown Sugar Bacon. The presentation was lovely. What I really liked was that you get 6 halves not just an odd number of three like most places. These deviled eggs were delicious. They had a creamy egg filling, with a piece of candied bacon on top. That bacon gave the eggs a nice smokey taste.For my Entree I chose their Ribeye Steak. My entree came with a House Salad and a Baked Potato, I also ordered an extra side of Mac N Cheese to share.This is a definite must. It had a crispy crumb topping and creamy, rich shell interior.I ordered my steak med-rare and I was emphatic that it not be over cooked. (Unfortunately, it was overcooked which was somewhat of a disappointment. This is a steak house and they should know how to cook a proper steak.) I ate some of it and kept quiet because it was my boyfriend’s birthday. The steak itself was seasoned nicely, it was just overcooked to medium which I dislike!The birthday boy ordered their Sirloin Steak and he got his topped with a Horseradish Crust for a few dollars more, a House Salad, and rice. He enjoyed his meal. ( they have a lot of extra sides to choose from.)My waiter knew it was my boyfriend’s birthday and to our surprise, he brought a FREE dessert. It was their Caramel Cookie Crunch-A caramel cookie, French vanilla bean ice cream chocolate, caramel, and white chocolate sauces on top. It was so good. He also presented a lovely birthday card which was a nice touch.I would’ve loved to give this place five stars, but I can’t because they overcooked my steak.Parking: This restaurant is located in the Tanger’s Shopping Mall. There’s tons of free parkingKid-friendliness: Each child gets a a fun playful placement that has a kid menu on itWheelchair accessibility: They have handicapped parking spaces“

“Went to Fred's for some great live Bluegrass - certainly not disappointed the music was awesome had some eats and drinks - the people were friendly and the bartender was great and pretty to boot. had a great time can't wait to go back. If your looking for something off the tourist path and enjoy some local fun - this is the place.“

“Today, was my first time ever ordering from Seymour Grille, and I can confidently say I’ll be back SOON! I was instantly greeted the moment I walked in the door, and everyone was so friendly. It was such a welcoming environment, and the food was so fresh & so delicious!! Also very fairly priced. 10/10!!!“

“The food was good for a buffet, but I can't complain. Service is great. They kept the buffet stocked up and never had to ask for anything. Helen was our waitress, and she was awesome. I asked her the first time there if they had a strawberry pie, and they were out of strawberries. Today, I asked her as a joke, but they did have one, and she made it for me. Was great. Will go again.Parking: It's parkingKid-friendliness: What is there to say kids love cereal and breakfast barsWheelchair accessibility: Has a ramp“

“1st time for me, but not my partner. He recommended this place and he would never steer me wrong. It was great! James our server was on point. We got a Kale salad and a Strawberry salad. They where both delicious and the bread they give you while you wait was so good. I will def come back.“

“I loved the wide open spaces and was thankful the tables weren't placed so close together. The hostess and server were both friendly. The server checked on us several times - shortly after receiving our food and a little while after.I ordered the gyro and a side salad, and my husband ordered the club and fries. We both enjoyed our meals. They were hot and fresh (except that I had some burnt ends of the meat in mine, but it wasn't enough to send back - just overly crunchy).We are local and have never been here before. I plan to return and hope that it will be just as good each time!We loved the decor, too. The hanging motorcycle, the cars, and all the little things that fit with the theme. It was fun to look at.“

“We’re staying at Douglas headwater campground, and went to Harbor grill for lunch today. We had a coconut shrimp appetizer, a burger for my husband and chicken tenders for myself, it was all very good! The waitress was friendly and very personable, she made us feel very welcomed. We’ll definitely be back.“

“We're locals & know it's a struggle to find any restaurant in town that isn't a tourist trap. This Longhorn location consistently has great food with excellent, friendly service. Every. Time. I realize it's a national chain, but trust me when I say most of these other places in town are a mess.“

“Been here a couple of times but was compelled to right a great review because of an awesome employee named “Z”!Every time we needed something he was happy to oblige and made it happen quick. He was polite the whole time to me, my husband, and my toddler and was able to accommodate for our dietary needs. Best service I’ve ever had at any Waffle House, give this guy a promotion!“

“Couldn’t have been happier with the service or the food. They had two guys working. One was cooking and the other was taking orders. Robert, I believe was the cook. Food was absolutely amazing. They are generous with their food and we went back there 3 times in a few days. It was around $30 for two sandwiches with fries and drink. A little expensive but definitely worth it for sure. I just wish we lived closer to come here more often!“

“Honestly will end up going back if I'm ever in town again. Not sure how to spell her name but Ashlie the bartender was a blessing. Made sure we got our outside bottles back at the end of the night. The drinks and food were great. She became our fried pickles bff. Super fun to be around always quick with the drinks.“

“I ate the jacked up Philly steak sandwich with fries and a drink. The atmosphere was rocking on a Thursday night. The place has a lot of seating. Every employee we came across was very nice to our party. They suggested great food, and were very active refilling our drinks often and taking our empty plates. Would be worth the stop if you are in that area of Tennessee.“

“First time at this restaurant. I have cooked steak in this area for years and have really perfected my craft. That being said it's usually hard to impress me, but they did. I'm not sure who my steak cook was tonight (3-4-2024) but not only was the temp of the steak spot on, but the flavor of the steak was great as well. 12oz Ribeye mid-rare. To that person excellent job. I just had to write a review about I was that impressed. The Texas Twinkies were delicious as well. Tip your cooks when the impress you, they work hard and it's a big boost for them on many levels.“

“The new Crispy Lobster and Shimp Stack is a good choice. 5 Lobster Bites, 5 Shimp, 5 Hush Puppies, and Fries. The Clam Chowder is very good also. Our table was very wobbly. We asked for another table before our coffee was served, and the waitress acted a little perturbed. Early afternoon, not busy.“

“This place was very great, & friendly. The peanut butter/Butterfinger malt was so rich and creamy. I had food at home so I ordered the fries, they seemed overcooked just a little but still pretty good. My husband's burger was nice and juicy, I tried a bite of course!“
