They have great food. If you like onion rings, they are the best I have ever had. My husband loves the pit cooked chicken.
Great food. Great people. Still as good as the last time we were in the area.

Tony Gore's Smoky Mountain BBQ & Grill is a family-friendly restaurant that focuses on a variety of Southern-style dishes, especially barbecue. Guests are welcomed warmly and introduced to a menu featuring both a la carte options and a quick bar. Standout dishes include the loaded baked potato fries, known as "landed sticks," topped with pulled pork and barbecue sauce, and the fall-off-the-bone tender ribs. The restaurant's family sauce is highly praised for its delicious flavor.
Sides are also a highlight, with the chicken and dumplings being a must-try – many say they are even better than a popular celebrity chef's recipe. The mac and cheese and rolls are highly recommended, and the mozzarella sticks, which are fresh and hand-breaded, are large enough for two people to share. The baked potato with pork is cooked perfectly, and the apple cobbler is described as amazing. Other popular menu items include baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw, baby back ribs, fried green tomatoes, cheese sticks, chicken livers, and pork barbecue. Desserts, such as the Death by Chocolate, Oreo, and Hummingbird Cake slices, are enjoyed for their generous portions and delicious flavors.
The atmosphere provides a comfortable feeling, and the service is attentive and friendly, with staff taking the time to explain the menu. Some guests noted that the loaded T chips and BBQ were good but served cold, suggesting they might be made in a style that keeps the chips warm. Overall, Tony Gore's Smoky Mountain BBQ & Grill is a favorite for Southern comfort food in the Smokies, offering hearty portions, welcoming service, and tasty dishes. Dishes like smoked bologna, fried pickles, and catfish have also received praise, making it a great stop for anyone looking for delicious food outside of chain restaurants.
