42 Best American Restaurants in Sevierville

“Taylor done an amazing job on a busy day like today! Thank you for the good food!“

“We ordered two sandwich trays today for our ladies’ Bible Study meeting, and everything was absolutely perfect—from the trays to the utensils! All the ladies kept saying how delicious everything was, and several who had never eaten here before asked where it was so they could come back themselves. Thank you for helping make our meeting such a hit!“

“We ordered the chicken cordon bleu and the country fried steak. We chose fried okra, stuffing, and mashed potatoes for sides.

The meal came with 4 apple fritters as appetizers, with apple butter on the side. They were fabulous! Best part of the meal. They also brought us out complementary apple juleps, which were okay, but were watered down from the ice served with them.

Our waitress was very friendly and gave exceptional service.

My cordon bleu was served in large proportion and was very delicious. My husband remarked that his country fried steak was good, but not as good as he has had before. The mashed potatoes were exceptional, but the dressing was pretty bland and the okra, although it was crispy, didn’t have much flavor.

The sides were “all you can eat”, so you wouldn’t leave hungry!

There was a complimentary dessert at the end of the meal. I ordered apple cobbler and my husband got the spiced apple cake. Both were small portions and did not mirror the exceptional taste of the cobbler that was served at the Apple Valley Creamery down the way…. My husband said the cake was “okay”. You definitely get a lot of food, but the taste is really only 4 out of 5 stars.“

“The Apple Barn in Sevierville, TN, is much more than just a store; it’s an essential stop for anyone visiting the Smokies. It's a charming spot that offers a warm, inviting atmosphere and food that is pure comfort.
You simply cannot start your meal without trying their signature items. The apple fritters are absolutely perfect—light, fluffy, and dusted with just the right amount of sweetness. And when you pair them with their homemade apple butter, it's heaven on a plate. It’s the kind of starter that makes you want to buy a jar of everything to take home!
For the main course, the country fried steak is the best I've ever had, hands down. It’s cooked perfectly, tender on the inside, crispy on the outside, and smothered in a delicious gravy. It is true, hearty Southern cooking at its finest.
The service is friendly, the setting is quaint, and the food is unforgettable. Make sure to visit The Apple Barn—you won't regret eating here!“

“What a fun place. Bec’s had some great draft beer, great burgers and sides. Equally great was the welcoming environment created by Becky. We had a fun conversation. We for sure will be stopping at Bec’s whenever we come to the area.“

“amazing food and wonderful atmosphere. our server was awesome!!! highly recommend!!!“

“The food was very good! We eat 2 evenings in a row. The only complaints the baked potato’s were not very hot and the server’s could be more attentive to if you need a refill. 😊“

“A wonder place, delicious food, a great menu, and staff. Thank you Faith for great service. We will definitely come back.“

“Anne was the highlight of our trip. We encountered some rude people on our visit, Anne just made everything better with her smile and kindness. She made it a point to make sure we had everything we needed. She is an amazing lady! Bless Anne with a visit, you will leave in a better mood than you stopped in with. Love ya Anne!“

“We visit Chubby’s often and are never disappointed. The food is always delicious and the servers are so friendly. And…. THE BEST COLESLAW EVER!“

“Hidden GEM!!!!!!!! A must stop and eat we had the Gyro amazing“

“Our family had a great time visiting English Mountain Trout Farm last weekend. The outdoor space around the trout farm was pretty and had shady spots for us to avoid the hot sun while we fished. The staff were friendly and helpful and ensured we all got a great catch! It was great for adults and kids. All of us enjoyed our time and we plan to come back! We all got the blackened trout and it was delicious. Worth the price for the experience and a tasty lunch. Seating was comfortable and it was a nice place (off the beaten path) to spend a couple of hours. Parking spaces are limited, so come early during busy seasons!“

“Their food is consistently outstanding!! Never a bad meal and great folks here! Beautiful Mountain View’s on their covered outdoor seating wrap around deck!“

“Stopped in and had a wonderful time. Beer was very good. The Oktoberfest and Bigfoot's Red Legend were spectacular. Food was great. Service was fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. I would recommend this to anyone in the Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg area.“

“We went tonight for my mom’s birthday and our Waitress, Jen, was absolutely AMAZING!!! She interacted with all of us so well and cut up and chatted with us and we never had to “want” for anything. She already got it haha the drinks were never empty and we never had to ask for sauce or Anything! And the food was perfect as usual. But her personality and hospitality was literally the best. she so deserves to be recognized! We loved her!“

“Gorgeous modern farmhouse setting. Lots of seating and bright light shining in. Located right next to SkyLand Ranch on Pigeon Forge’s main parkway. Portions are ginormous. Loved everything including the biscuits and hearty griddle cakes. Little bit of something for everyone!“

“The food is always good and the menu satisfies many different diets. The frozen meals come off as a bit pricey but the quality is much better than many other meal prep stores. Their dine in menu has lots of options and everything is good. I only wish they had some breakfast/brunch options in the freezer.“

“Beautiful decor, welcoming atmosphere and amazing food“

“Unfortunately we will never go back to the Local Eatery. We moved here 3 years ago from Southern California and fell in love with the Local as we live right up the street, for 2 years we had dinner there every Friday night and loved the entertainment,during football season we were there every Saturday and Sunday for lunch or dinner for Football, we stopped going for dinner on Fridays when the menu changed, but still stopped in on a Saturday or Sunday for lunch and cocktails, yesterday Saturday the first home Vols game they did not have,so no more Saturdays because we can watch it at home but really enjoyed watching it at the Local, so we watched it at home, today we went to the Local to watch the Saints game and have lunch, they we very short handed and couldn't get the Saints game, we are so disappointed in the Local Eatery that we will NEVER patronize them again, it amazes me how in 1 year a Local staple can go from being a place that local Boyd's Creek residents gathered to enjoy friends and family to a restaurant that is such a disappointment.“

“Excellent food. Good price, and the service was outstanding. Ms Vicki is the best“

“Delicious food, attentive and friendly service and great upscale atmosphere! We will definitely stop by again! We stopped in for a late lunch and had the chicken salad melt (made with rotisserie chicken) and the Reuben melt. They were both delicious. The side of pimento cheese grits was tasty as well. Our server, Jacob, was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. All in all, a great experience!“

“They went above and beyond for my Daughter with meat allergies!! ( Alpha-gal) !! The manager stopped what he was doing and went straight to the grill to take care of my daughter so there was zero possibility of cross contamination!! These guys are Awesome!!“

“Jamie is the best server!!! Loved her sense of humor.“

“Great food and atmosphere! Quickly becoming one of our favorite places to go ❤️“

“Tonight we made tacos all from ingredients we bought at Escobar’s, it was absolutely delicious!! We bought pastor, tortillas, produce, and salsas and every bite was amazing. We will definitely be back for more, looking forward to trying other meat options and picking up some tamales. Yum! This is a great Mexican market, authentic!“

“Great food. Great Service“

“Good selection. Vegetarian options. Delicious sauces. Orange Creamsicle float was a great finish.“

“we ate at the Sevierville location. 10/10 recommend! Sam our waitress was the best. so sweet and never made us feel rushed. kept our cups full too. the cooks there have steaks down to a science as our rib eye and prime rib were perfect in every way! we will be going back in December!“

“I’m a local, walking in every staff member that came across us on our visit, was amazing! Their attitudes and work ethic went above and beyond. Our Waitress was Abby!! She was the best waitress I’ve had in Sevierville as a local, that means a lot!!! Just wanted to give this place a shout out! Food was out in a short time and was hot and good!!!“

“Stopped here on our way out of town. The food itself was delicious. There were four people in front of me and I waited 25 minutes to get one sandwich and they were in no hurry making them. they were not rude, but they were not overly friendly either.“

“LongHorn is one of several chain restaurants along the main highway between Sevierville and Pigeon Forge, but it’s easily among the better options.\n\nI chose to sit at the bar to avoid a wait for a table. Service was excellent — the bartender handled both the bar guests and drink orders for the dining room with efficiency and professionalism.\n\nI ordered a medium-rare filet mignon with broccoli. The broccoli was fresh and piping hot, while the steak was cooked exactly as ordered — something not every restaurant gets right.\n\nOverall, a solid experience. I’d definitely return.“

“been coming here for years. staff is like family. fun place for karaoke, live bands, something to do every night.“

“Unfortunately we had cause to complain about the service - but our server Jessie and supervisor Ashley sorted this out. It meant a longer wait for our food but it was delicious. We liked that the manager came by too checking on us and they made a deduction to the total bill. Well done Red Lobster - you handled the situation in a friendly and professional way.“

“We visited Joe’s Crab Shack on Saturday, Dec. 6, 2025 in Sevierville, TN after a very long day at a cheer competition. Our group was a party of 25 — and only 10 of those were adults. 🫣 My family alone is a wild party of six. Usually for my daughter’s cheer competitions, I travel alone, or if my husband joins us, two of our kids stay with grandparents — one because she wants absolutely no part of the cheer world, and our sweet boy Madden is autistic and nonverbal. The world isn’t always built for children like him, and doing something as simple as a weekend getaway can feel impossible. It’s a hard reality for special needs parents. But this weekend, we decided to try. All four kids. New environment. Busy restaurant. I was nervous, honestly terrified, and almost backed out. By the time we arrived, the rest of our group was already seated — one long table for the adults and another for the kids. 😳 And then came Conrad, our server… and the reason this night became something unforgettable. From the moment we sat down, he was on top of everything — quick with our drinks, friendly, calm. But within a minute of getting our drinks, my husband knocked mine over. Before I could even get fully embarrassed, Conrad was right there insisting I stop cleaning because he’s got it covered. Then came the search for the “golden crab,” and… chaos. Kids looking under tables, drinks spilling everywhere — one kid’s drink, then a shark attack drink. Again, I jumped up to clean, and again Conrad swooped in, stopped me, and handled it. He even stood guard over the spill until he got a wet floor sign (kudos to him for following policy 😉). Despite the madness, he stayed cheerful, calm, and kept the atmosphere light. Meanwhile, I’m over there absolutely mortified — former server here, so I know how rough nights like that can be! But this is where I need to truly highlight what made this experience extraordinary. Conrad never rushed us. He never cut corners. Every kid who ordered a shark attack drink got the full experience — lights, excitement, the whole restaurant knowing. He poured into making the night special. Then, in a moment that meant more than he will ever know, I turned around and saw him kneeling beside my son at the kids’ table. Interacting with him. Talking to him. Giving him little toys. He didn’t stare. He didn’t avoid him. He simply saw him. I nudged my husband and we both watched our boy stemming by flap his arms in pure excitement — a moment we rarely get outside of home because we hardly ever go to sit down restaurants as a family. I don’t even think Conrad realized we were watching. But I felt something lift off my chest… like for the first time in a long time, I could relax and enjoy an outing with friends and my whole family. A few minutes later he gently tapped my shoulder to ask about Madden. I started to give the usual “Yes, he’s autistic and nonverbal,” but that wasn’t his question — he wanted to make sure there was something on the menu Madden would like, and if not, he said he’d see what accommodations he could make. My heart absolutely melted. We stayed for a long time — full chaos, noise, spills, laughter — and Conrad never once lost his spark or smile. When one of the kids wanted pepperoni for her cheese pizza (which her mom informed her she ordered her cheese), he found a way to bring her a little bowl anyway. Her face lit up like Christmas and she told him he was the best. And then, as if he hadn’t already gone above and beyond, he led the entire restaurant in singing happy birthday to one of the dads… telling everyone he was turning 15 so the kids could get a good laugh! I truly hope Conrad receives recognition for the way he cared for our wild party of 25. He made an enormous impact on this mama’s heart — especially as the mother of a sweet autistic boy. For the first time, I felt hope that Madden can be part of our family outings without the constant fear or overwhelm we’ve grown used to. Because of Conrad, this night became something more meaningful than dinner after a long day — it became a moment of“

“We had quit coming out here cause the food and service were terrible!! But we came in over the weekend and had the most amazing server, Erica. We didn't have to ask for refills or for anything we needed. She made sure to take really good care of us and anticipated everything we needed before we needed it!!! So we WILL be coming back regularly from now on..“

“I absolutely loved this place and by chance turned around because we were starving and couldn’t find somewhere to eat. We are from out of town but will now have us a tradition spot for our yearly visit. I can’t believe this place has the negative reviews because we had an amazing experience! The food was worth every single penny! The cornbread was the best I have ever had in a restaurant that cooks southern food and the fried chicken and ribs were seasoned to perfection. The ribs didn’t even need any sauce so that alone says a lot. The atmosphere was great and the service was friendly. Such a great experience and can’t wait to go back next year to try the things I couldn’t decide decide I wanted between this year. Give this place a try if you like southern food!“

“Great experience! Smoked chicken was the most flavor throughout and the seasoning was perfect. My dining buddy had the 10oz sirloin Steak, baked potato, and side salad. The steak was cooked medium well and was great...thick cut and juicy. Loved the atmosphere. Waiter was prompt. Plenty of parking. We will be back for sure. Thanks 👍“

“We recently hosted our wedding welcome dinner at Dave & Buster's, and it was absolutely the BEST decision we made! Instead of a traditional formal rehearsal dinner, we opted for a fun, family-friendly atmosphere, and Dave & Buster's delivered in every aspect. The staff was phenomenal from start to finish, handling every aspect with incredible attention and care. Being from out of state, we truly appreciated their warm hospitality and how smoothly everything went. Our guests had a blast, and we created memories that will last a lifetime. We will definitely be back whenever we're in the area!“

“Our waiter was fantastic! He was so attentive, friendly and didnt make me feel awkward when I had a hard time finding something gluten free, he even made suggestions. All around a pleasant exsperiance. We loved having him as our waiter, he is a great employee he should be recognized. Im so sorry i cant remember his name! He was a taller gentleman with sandy hair and I think an alien waiters apron. This is our second visit and im sure it wont be our last. I like the atmosphere here, its simple and reminds me of the good old days lol. I recommend this place.“

“I really enjoy Steak 'n Shake. Their food is priced well and in my opinion tastes way better than other fast food restaurants. They use real beef tallow to fry with and you can definitely tell the difference. Well worth it. Wish there were more locations.“
