Total waste of money. Went with a group of 10 people for a birthday dinner. We had a reservation. Restaurant was not crowded yet service was super slow. They mixed up most of our orders, didn't bring extra chips we asked for, forgot to bring a few people at our table their food, and then messed up several of our bills. The food menu at the restaurant didn't match what was online. Food was not good or worth the money. We all felt ripped off as we spent $50-$150 each but none of us were satisfied. Choose somewhere else.

Well, this was a pleasant surprise. I mean, based on Google reviews we were optimistic, but didn't think it would be THAT good. The decor alone was extremely inviting. We started out with chips, salsa, and guacamole. The salsa was good, but the guacamole was thee best we have ever had. Outstanding!! My daughter and I each had the Cochinita Pibil Torta and they were so tender and delicious. My husband had the Carne Asada Tenderloin. Perfectly cooked to medium rare which is not the norm even in top steakhouses. He said it was one of the best steaks he's ever had. My hubby and daughter had dessert back at the airbnb so only I got one to go. The rice pudding was just ok, but with everything else, still 5 star dinner. Props to our waiter Landon.

We found Paloma Scratch Kitchen online when we were looking for a non-“American” food option after days of steak/burger/chicken options on a long weekend trip to the area. The atmosphere, food, service and parking were all great. We especially enjoyed the tacos and roast corn appetizer. Food is spicy, like we like it. Would eat there again.

What a lovely spot-- amazing vegetarian options in an area where you're lucky to find a subpar veggie burger at most places. We ended up here unexpectedly on Christmas Eve, and we were so happy we did. The staff were so kind and accommodating. We were given complimentary Agua de Jamaica (hibiscus and cinnamon tea) on arrival. We ordered a selection of vegetarian tapas, all of which were incredible, especially the shishito peppers fried in masa flour. The chef came out to chat with us, and told us that several of the meat free items on the menu were specifically intended to make up for the short shrift that vegetarians get elsewhere in the area. The decor and ambience were lovely, and it was just a great experience all around. Highly recommend.

My husband and I came in for dinner and there was no one in the restaurant besides us. We each ordered an old-fashioned and my husband had two tacos and I had one. When we got the bill at the end of our dinner, we were shocked to see that our drinks were $22 each, plus $11 in alcohol tax Our tacos were dry and the little corn tortillas that they handmade were not very tasty and were crumbling as we tried to hold them as we ate them

I went to Paloma to try out something different from the regular Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge Fried food. This place was delicious, we ordered the salsa and guacamole trio each flavor was delicious. The Chicken Tinga had a nice flavor with a little spice from the sauce it was plated with. My friend ordered the Carne Asada and that dish was also delicious. Compliments to the chef.
Additionally, the staff was extremely helpful, checking in on us and helping with any request we had since there was a large party of us. It was much appreciated. I would go back again especially considering the food was light, satisfying and health!

FOOD WAS AMAZING!! My girl ate her many vegan options and there for me the chicken tacos deserve a chefs kiss lol!! Also people were kind. It is in the hotel but feel free to walk up and eat we sure did and we definitely will be coming back for more
Food was good. Service was good. Our server was a little lacking in that he did not refill our drinks.

I have been in the area for a few days now, and this was BY FAR the best meal I’ve eaten.
If you are looking for something other than fried food and burgers, something healthier, THIS is where you should go. And they have a lot of GF, vegetarian, vegan options!
The vibes/atmosphere, interior design of place is super cute and the staff is extremely friendly.
Highly recommend!

Service was good, and the decor was amazing. We loved the appetizer with the trio of salsas and guacamole. Our tacos weren't great, the tortillas were soggy in the middle by the time our food was brought to us.

While there were only a couple diners in restaurant, the service was slow to start. Had to ask for drinks twice. They did however bring over a really delicious pink concoction with a hint of spice and watermelon that was soooo good. The beef taco was tough, fatty and not really edible, however the mushroom taco was great.

Inside the Wayback hotel. Our breakfast was included with our stay and was well worth it.
