This location is out of the mainstream flow of the Parkway in Gatlinburg, which makes it nice that it’s not as heavily trafficked, at least at this time of year in November.
Just want to begin by stating that our server, Janet, was on her game and provided us with 5 star service. Janet, thanks for a job well done!
Now to rate the food. My wife and I shared the Texan Sampler entrée. It gives you a taste of their brisket, chicken, pulled pork, jalapeño sausage, and ribs. As all of the entrées do, the platter came with two sides. My wife chose crinkle cut fries, and I chose the deep fried corn on the cob, which was very flavorful. Every meat item was tasty, but I have to nick Bennett’s one star because the temperature of the food was barely above lukewarm. Hot food should come out hot and not warm. All of the different bbq sauces were too sweet for my taste, but I am from Texas and am accustomed to a tangier, spicier flare. So that’s personal preference. The sauce quality was still good. Also, the salad bar was full of fresh veggies and several salad toppings and was delicious! My daughter had a bacon cheeseburger, and she said that it was served hot. Rounded off the meal with homemade blackberry cobbler and ice cream, with
banana pudding for our daughters. Yummy! Overall, would I try them again? Yes, I would give them a second chance, hoping to have hotter food the next time.

This place was amazing! My server Briana was phenomenal and made me feel welcomed immediately which is amazing when you’re eating out alone. She was sweet and engaging and is amazing at her job! I got the pork shoulder which was perfectly smokey and went great with the Mustard sauce, wasn’t too fatty at all. The fries were battered perfectly and were crunchy and soft on the inside, and the Mac and cheese was perfect. The biscuit was just buttery and garlic enough and I even got to try the potato salad, I added a little extra mustard sauce since I’d drink that stuff. I am visiting from South Florida but I will be back!!

This place is incredibly accommodating towards those with allergies. I have a severe peanut allergy myself, and they assured me that there were no nuts in the restaurant and even had the manager take my order the food there was so delicious. I highly recommend the barbecue chicken or the fried deviled eggs

We choose to eat here because there are several gluten free options on the menu. It’s located just past the busier part of town, although it was still pretty busy. We were advised that there was a 30-45 minute wait but that we could go get a drink, and upon doing so we wound up being able to order right away at the bar so keep that in mind if you go. The bartender was awesome- he made suggestions and got our food out promptly. We ordered the Texas sampler so that we could try a little bit of everything and it did not disappoint- would highly recommend! It was the perfect amount of food for my wife and I to share. The moonshine drinks were tasty without being overly potent. The rowdy sauce was delish. One of our favorite meals while in town, in no small part due to the excellent service we received at the bar.

My family and I came here to try this restaurant because we heard multiple good reviews. We were seated immediately and our waitress Diana did a great job and was very hospitable. In regard to the food I expected a lot better because of how everyone recommended the restaurant. I ate the BBQ chicken and it was somewhat dry, the potato salad was not up to par, and the fish on the sandwich had a funny taste. The baked beans were the best thing on the menu in my opinion. Overall, the service and atmosphere was great, but the quality of the food needs to be improved.

Everything about this place is phenomenal! The staff was quite welcoming, the food was great and wait time wasn’t as bad as we thought on a fall weekend.
Deviled eggs come with a twist, must try item. Another must try is the Burnt Ends… their brisket is so tender and juicy inside and burnt on the outside – a hard combo to get!
Highly recommend this place to any BBQ lovers visiting town

We came to Pigeon Forge late and wanted to grab some southern bbq. We came here with hungry stomachs. We tried the deep fried pickle chips which were recommended by our server. They were tasty. We ended up sharing two BBQ special combo plates and shared between four people. It had plenty of pull pork, briskets, sausages and more. It was tasty and we had leftovers. Pretty good place to eat. You won’t be disappointed.

Nice bbq spot in downtown Gatlinburg with happy friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Come in and see David he will take care of you like he did us. Had the hickory lemon pepper ️ chicken wings, delicious. I had the Texan platter and I have left overs for another meal . We also in our group had the brisket meal and the pulled pork meal. No room for dessert this time! ETD….Enjoy the Day!
