31 Best American Restaurants in Pigeon Forge

“The food was excellent and our server was wonderful! He was so kind, when I left my credit card he found us out in the parking lot and returned it to me, that as so kind of him, it would have been a much different day for me tomorrow if he hadn't done that!“

“Majid is the BEST server! Ask for him if you’re there Fri-Mon! We’ve had him 3 years in a row when visiting, and he (along with consistent & delicious food!) make the experience!“

“We come here very often. Brianna was our server today. Great service and personality. Also very attentive! Will ask for her every time.“

“Excellent food, prompt and wonderful service each time we've been there! One of our favorite places in the area.“

“Great food and service! Trish was our waitress and she did an amazing job!“

“All the food was delicious. The kids loved the experience. I chose applesauce as their side and the portion was underwhelming, but the quality of the main courses was excellent. The game card for the kids was a nice touch. The quality and variety of the games in the arcade was so fun and entertaining. As an OT and mom I appreciate they have a nursing room and calming room for overstimulated kids (or adults!). Great addition to Pigeon Forge!“

“Upgraded hotel voucher for $1.50 and ordered the Bananas Foster pancakes. Layers of bananas topped with pecans and a caramel sauce. No need for syrup. Added real whipped butter, not margarine. It was delicious! Highly, Highly, recommend. My husband ordered the steak and eggs and really enjoyed it. It was not a thick cut, but flavorful. Enjoy!“

“Awesome place and huge portions.“

“Timberwood Grill has always been one of my favorites places to eat when visiting. Great food and customer service. No complaints here.“

“Great food and friendly staff. I would recommend especially for the kids.“

“Absolutely amazing! Our group of 10 had burgers, chicken sandwiches, mini corn dogs, fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings and a salad. The sign on the door asks for patience due to employee training, the time was actually super short! The food was fresh and delicious. Seriously the best burger I’ve ever ate and those crunchy onion rings are to out of this world. All of the employees were super nice. 10/10 recommend!“

“Fabulously funny entertainment! Dinner and a show! Great food and hilarious server! thanks Pippy!“

“our visit in pigeon forge was GREAT ! Friendless people an amazing service . 5 Stars“

“The pork rinds are delicious!!! They actually fry them at the stand!!! The BBQ flavored ones were really good!!! Would definitely get them again if I was in the park! They are a great snack to ward off hunger!!! You can’t go wrong with these!!! Would recommend getting the souvenir bucket because it is refillable and that is a cheaper way to go!!! Enjoy some the next time you go by!!!“

“This Waffle House was the best one I have ever been to. Food was perfect and service was wonderful. We ate there two times during our stay in Pigeon Forge. It was extremely busy both times but we were in and out in about 30 minutes. And the staff were genuinely friendly and happy despite the busyness. Tristan was our waitress both times and she was great!“

“Very well done dinner show! The staff is extremely helpful and friendly! The food is pretty good but really we were there for the show! They’re also really great about food allergies/restrictions with options like gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian! The show itself was awesome and the animals all seemed to be taken care of very well!“

“We had soooo much fun!! The cast was fabulous! The food was amazing as was the service! Our waitress Torie, was very sweet! She was part of the cast also. She even asked us to participate in a fun little competition on stage! It was hysterical!!“

“i know you can get a good dog at Costco and Sam's Club for $1.50 but sometimes you have to bite the bullet and pay dearly but there is nothing like a good footlong to top off the day at Dollywood and the curly fries are an added treat. Dogs N Taters is the place. You can enjoy a little live music next door if you time it right. I would never pay $13.99 outside of the park unless I was at an NFL game but hey you only live once. Enjoy it ! !“

“This was our first dining experience and Ember & Elm and we will definitely be back. Our serve, Noel, was fantastic and so welcoming especially with our late reservation time (we arrived at 8:45 pm). After a long day at Dollywood, this was exactly the excellent meal our family needed to round out a great day! Big thanks to Noel and the kitchen at Ember and Elm for making our experience so wonderful- we can't wait to come back soon!“

“This was the best ever. After coming to Tennessee for years, we've finally found our favorite restaurant. Best fried chicken in the world. Go see for yourself. You can thank me later“

“Just left the restaurant. Food was very good..hot and served to order. Good atmosphere, great server. His name was John. Took good care of us, refills, rolls to the table, and checked back frequently. All in all, a great dining experience!“

“The food and the staff are excellent!“

“1000% RECOMMENDED!!
This place does not get enough praise.
I’m surprised the place was not packed full.
It was beyond worth the 10 mins wait.
As soon as you walk in it was super inviting and aesthetically pleasing.
The kind waitress that served our table wish I got her name. She had blue hair and was super sweet and outgoing she did excellent.
Her recommendations were so on point as well.
The presentation of each dish was beyond perfection.
And the fresh taste to lock im the experience of each dish made it all tie together.
We were expecting our bill to be super crazy expensive but for all the food we got 3 appetizers
2 meals and 2 desserts it was only $80.
It was my first time with my fiance.
OUR only complaint is that they don’t cater.
We would have loved to cater for our wedding.
Best food here in pigeon forge.
And definitely our new recommending place.
Thank you all to everyone who works here.
We will be telling our friends and families.“

“We went here on Friday night during the horrible traffic jams. We got there at 9:30 pm and even though they were closing at 10pm our waitress Colleen made us feel very welcome. She’s the best waitress“

“The staff was so friendly. Best hashbrowns anywhere! I don’t have to order them extra crispy because they already come that way!“

“I went here for dinner and let me tell you about how great the good is. Started off with the spinach artichoke dip and the flavor was so damn good! I got the ribeye steak and it paired very well with the moonshine margarita (highly recommend). They were pretty busy and the service was excellent. Not once did I have to ask for anything.“

“We really enjoyed this place for dinner. My husband said the shrimp tacos were the best he’s ever had, the chimichurri steak was delicious and seasoned so well. The kids Mac and cheese was like Kraft, so that made my kid happy. Margaritas were great, live music was fun, and service was good!“

“Ami was our waitress and she was absolutely fantastic it was very busy but we were very well taken care of this was our first time and we will definitely be back we live 3 & 1/2 hours away but the next time we visit we will definitely be there thank you for the service and the delicious food ❤“
