Thanks for sharing Dollywood's Dream More Song and Hearth Dinner Restaurant!

[@jbinthehills]

Thank you for watching. Beautiful Resort. 😎😎

[@TammySoulJourney]

That cheesecake looks so good and the fruit presentation and jello

[@jbinthehills]

They had a lot of good desserts to choose from.😎😎

[@loiscarson5526]

Very good video guy's, thank you for sharing, we will have to try on next trip down.

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@gretchenmoyer8441]

Thank you again for an honest review again. We thank you for telling us your honest view! Have a wonderful time down at dollywood! God Bless you both!

[@jbinthehills]

Thank you Gretchen. We have a great time there. 😎😎

[@TMeAdventures]

Ha, that was my husband, Tommy White playing steel guitar in the background ambient music at the restaurant around marker 1:48 (Without You) for about 30 seconds! Great video! We’ve never been there but need to go when we are there in a couple weeks! Nice job!

[@jbinthehills]

That's so cool. This place was great the second time through. Probably best time would be to get there first thing when food is hot. You have to make reservations but as you saw you could just walk in. Ours was at 7:45 and we went in at 6:30. Loved the shrimp and grits and the deserts were amazing. 😎😎

[@mikemurphy5158]

Looked like a nice place decorated nice! Not a bad price for what you get! Great video guys. Thanks for sharing it!

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@bamagirl6403]

First time I have seen review of Dream more restaurant. I dont think I would eat there. Not alot I liked to eat there. Loved the looks of the restaurant. Thanks

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@valleygirl8973]

Have always had a good experience. We usually for the brunch or bogo during slow season. It has been fairly busy when we have been there and they kept things stocked. I think your review was very accurate when you were there. Always appreciate your honest opinions.

[@jbinthehills]

We would try it again, service was great and the food had a good taste just cold. Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@travelindave]

The desserts looked better than the rest of the buffet. Loved your Aerosmith shirt!

[@jbinthehills]

Bought that shirt at the Harley shop this year. They had limited edition Aerosmith stuff. The deserts were awesome. With our discount and free drink it's worth it if the foods warm. Thanks David Rock On my friend 😎😎

[@kimellis1727]

Looks so pretty in there, will have to go and check it out.

[@jbinthehills]

It was pretty. It's worth trying once. They have breakfast also. 😎😎

[@presleygirlsfarm4716]

Enjoyed the honest review. Y'all are great as always. Thanks for the video.

[@jbinthehills]

You are so welcome. Glad you enjoyed it 😎😎

[@mountainguru529]

YOU ARE STARVIG ME TO DEATH IT LOOKS AMAZIG WODERFUL THAKS FOR THE VIDEO !

[@jbinthehills]

Sorry you are starving. Lol We really liked the desserts. Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@TheMtggrl]

It's always fun to try new places, but how sad that they aren't keeping it all hot and filled, that would be disappointing, but like you said it's hard when people are taking it themselves, it's hard to keep up sometimes. I'm also not a fan of the pink meat, I often have to send it back especially if I order steak, I just don't like to pay a lot and have them undercook it when I ask for it a certain a way. I guess they made up for the early disappointment by putting out the yummy desserts. Thanks for taking us along with you.

[@jbinthehills]

Yes the second time was so much better than the first. Some of the food was great and the deserts were excellent. We would go back again maybe try the breakfast menu. 😎😎

[@jodypugh3366]

We have ate there twice ,first time was better than the second,but I as well think the timing was off the 2nd time we went.Over all love the atmosphere and most of the food that was on the buffet .Like John said we could just have desserts and coffee and it'd be worth the cost!Lol!

[@jbinthehills]

That's exactly what we thought. Some stuff was excellent some so so. But the deserts were amazing. Appreciate the comment 😎😎

[@sandriagutierrez2605]

Bobbie, your a smart eater. You never fill your plate with carbs, nor do you load it with extras. I’m impressed! Stay healthy.

[@jbinthehills]

I like vegetables more than meat and potatoes. Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@Rhondagail]

Very pretty restaurant

[@jbinthehills]

It was beautiful. 😎😎

[@jeffdickens7019]

Hey there John and Bobby Dollywood's dream kitchen the food didn't look all that good to me the second go around you had looked a little better but I never liked buffets really your dessert looked really good but it is hard to find a good buffet another good video guys keep up the good work God bless

[@jbinthehills]

The second time around was better. Chicken was very good and we loved the desserts.😎😎

[@scruffy0928]

The decor is gorgeous. Kind of rustic elegant. You guys surely went at the wrong time. You got the leftovers of the buffet and they weren't at their best in texture and temperature.

[@jbinthehills]

We did. The second time it was great. Should have gone right when they opened I'm sure it was ok then. Would go here again and maybe try the breakfast as soon as it opened. 😎😎

[@gorymarty56]

I see that grisle in the prime. Awwwww

[@jbinthehills]

We didn't care for the prime rib. 😎😎

[@jbjacobs9514]

Decades ago, when my grandma was in the hospital for a heart issue, they gave her soup and she called it "stone soup" because it had no taste. We laughed about that for years after! It is a shame when a buffet is cold. It really turns me off. The place looked fancy but fancy or not, the food should be hot. :-( I would have wanted to fill up on prime rib, chicken and dumplins, and shrimp and grits. hehehe Grits totally depend on who's cooking them and how they are made. I love your inserts of snowmeister and heatmeister (I'm mister sun!). Truth be told, where prime rib is concerned, it should be served pink. Some do it rare (I don't like that) but some do it too done (an old shoe). hehe

[@jbinthehills]

The second time around, the food was hot. But I agree it should always be hot and fresh. Thanks for watching and commenting 😎😎

[@carlavision6143]

Those desserts looked so yummy and delicious and some of your food looked good. Really enjoyed your video.

[@jbinthehills]

Thank you so much. The deserts were the best and the second time through the food was so much better.😎😎

[@carlavision6143]

@@jbinthehills you're welcome!

[@cjcutter1571]

Having some breakfast watching! 😎🎄

[@jbinthehills]

That's cool. Glad you enjoy eating breakfast watching us. 😎😎

[@shirleymack8651]

My husband used to ask me why i always got a salad on a buffet too but i still got it. It tastes fresh and you can add a lot more stuff on it then at home. I also will not eat Prime Rib. I hate any kind of pink in my meats. I need it very well done. Love the brussel sprouts and carrots. Yummy desserts. Did you stay at the Dream More too ?

[@jbinthehills]

Yes we did. Will bring it out tomorrow. That's funny your husband is just like me. Just hate filling up on salads with all the meat. 😎😎

[@adampender2482]

What's the point of burning meat till its tough and dry? Rare to medium rare for me.

[@Amanda-py8ff]

@@adampender2482 that’s how I eat prime rib 🥩😎

[@harryd.591]

Had a very similar experience at the buffet. came when it first opened and most items weren't hot. They had Salmon the night we went and my son enjoyed that. Meatloaf, nothing special, Prime Rib was reheated from the night before. Overall as a season ticket holder the price was right, drinks included and good desserts. For $10 or so more it had to be a better value than the cookie dough place. Keep the videos coming, enjoy your views!

[@jbinthehills]

We would go back we liked what we got the second time around. Service was excellent. Thanks for watching and commenting 😎 😎

[@janbond8460]

I really enjoy these. I was born in Bradford, Pennsylvania, which is located in the NW corner. I'm so pleased that I can't gain weight just watching. Oh, I had never heard of shoo-fly pie, so obliviously, I have never tasted it.

[@5cats2kids8]

I’m guessing you never came to eastern PA? If you get a chance please do! Shoo fly pie is delicious if done right!

[@jbinthehills]

We love sho-fly pie. Mainly sold in the Lancaster area. Bobbie doesn't like it but I love it. Hopefully you can try it someday 😎😎

[@jbinthehills]

You are 100 percent correct.😎😎

[@coastkat1742]

What time did you go? I have never seen the place like you are showing it?

[@jbinthehills]

We went on a Sunday night and the park is not open on Monday so not alot of people there. We went at 6:30. It was dead. 😎😎

[@Rhondagail]

Your video is great 👍😎 keep it up

[@jbinthehills]

Thank you so much.😎😎

[@Rhondagail]

Your welcome 😁

[@TammySoulJourney]

Yes you should always try different foods and also eating Foods a few times like in a row or 3 or 4 times within the week something that you thought you didn't like you will like 😊

[@jbinthehills]

You never know if you like something if you don't try it.😎😎

[@beckyclemons879]

I think the ham would have been my favorite too.

[@jbinthehills]

It was very good. After first time through everything was so much better.😎😎

[@paulwicklander3691]

That looked like about enough for me to eat , what Ya'll havin !!!

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@mariebruzdowski6466]

That prime rib looked too well done

[@jbinthehills]

We didn't like the prime rib.😎😎

[@5cats2kids8]

Hint: grits with the cheese throughout is the best! Too many places just put the cheese on top of the grits only, and that’s gross. The food Definitely looked better on the second round. Except the prime rib. Lol, I’m a medium rare person. ☺️ PS don’t worry about the cold pink prime rib, in my area, we buy it from the deli just like that! ☺️

[@jbinthehills]

Bobbie wasn't sure about the prime rib. We don't eat it that much. The second time it was good. Thought maybe people eat it cold wasn't sure. Thanks for info.😎😎

[@annlee368]

I don’t understand why everything in the buffet is cold. They should have heaters to keep everything warm. It makes one not wanting to go there to eat cold food!

[@jbinthehills]

Yes wish it could have been better first time. It was so much better 2nd time through. The problem was its off season and nobody was there. Be better to go when it's busier. The food was good quality though and we would go back. 😎😎

[@TammySoulJourney]

That salad and carrots look good.. and brussel sprouts

[@jbinthehills]

We need to go back and try their breakfast. 😎😎

[@constancecherry3996]

Sounds delicious

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching 😎😎

[@cathyhennessee583]

Thank you for your review of the buffet, sounds like it had its good and bad about it.

[@jbinthehills]

It was just that. The second time around was better but the deserts were amazing.😎😎

[@michellejohnson2946]

dream more during the winter months in the slow times does bogo for locals. it is a good treat at that price for sure. hate the paper straws

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching We hate paper straws too.😎😎

[@valleygirl8973]

We love the bogo. Have always had a good experience.

[@destroyerj]

Buffets are a crap-shoot. Try a few here in Las Vegas, specifically these; Bacchanal, Wicked Spoon, The Wynn, and The Excalibur. You will see/taste the difference.

[@jbinthehills]

Would love to try them. Been to Vegas once went to a couple. One had King Crab legs on it. What a deal that would be today for the price of crab now. Great food in Vegas 😎😎

[@christinechance7663]

HI GUYS!!!No DISRESPECT but the food should not EVER BE COLD ENLESS ITS INTENDED TO BE LIKE ICE CREAM LOL ,IM GLAD YOUR 2ND GO WAS BETTER !!!THE PLACE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL, ITS TO BAD >I PERSONALLY WOULD HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT COLD FOOD ,YOU CAN GET SICK EATING UNDER COOKED FOOD!!!!ANYWAY GREAT REVIEW &YOUR HONESTY SPEAKS VOLUMES OF YOUR GUYS CHARACTER!!!!👍👍😘💥💥💥💗♠️💜💞💙♥️

[@jbinthehills]

The second time around was much better. It is a beautiful resort. Thanks for watching😎😎

[@beauK2166]

Try the Brussels Sprouts John! Don’t Knock’em before you try them.

[@jbinthehills]

Maybe I should LOL. 😎😎

[@koalabear6722]

I too don't eat pink meat. Way to much food to eat for me. I like my hot food hot and cold cold. For that price the food should match it. 😋 Don't like buffets just for that reason. Enjoying the videos.

[@jbinthehills]

Our second time around getting food was better. Thanks for watching 😎😎

[@virginiaalexander4999]

Being Dollywood Dream More I am surprised the buffet was reasonably priced. The first plates would have been disappointing for me but I'm glad you persisted & got more satisfying food. Hubby is allergic to black pepper & has to be very careful.

[@jbinthehills]

Yes Bobbie is same way. It was decent we might have to get breakfast there sometime. 😎😎

[@rebeccanester433]

The best Prime Rib is the smoked prime rib at Calhoun's in Gatlinburg. Its not on the menu you have to ask for it.

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for letting us know about the Prime Rib. Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@algernon5776]

Buffet was priced right!!! Sorry to hear the food was not up to temperature that's on the Chef. I love Prime Rib so I would love a big thick piece 😋. Shrimp and Grits are the bomb 💣

[@jbinthehills]

The first time some things were cold. But the second time around it was hot. The time we were there it was not very busy.We would try it again. 😎😎

[@td449]

Curious you eat at the restaurant if you are not staying at the resort?

[@jbinthehills]

We stayed there and put video out on it. Anybody can eat at it and most people that do go there don't stay at resort. The resort is very expensive unless you get a deal like we did. Thanks for watching 😎😎

[@TammySoulJourney]

Looks like a nice restaurant

[@jbinthehills]

It is very pretty. The restaurant is at Dolly's resort. 😎😎

[@coldcountess]

I'm like you Bobby, I prefer my beef more well done !!

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching and commenting 😎😎

[@deborahhafer5346]

There is no excuse to get cold food at Dolly Parton's. Too darn bad.😕

[@jbinthehills]

Our second time around was better. 😎😎

[@christinechance7663]

I totally agree hot food should be HOT &COLD food should be COLD!!!!

[@belindab.2507]

My husband is from PA & would never eat grits & that is because he only ate them in restaurants. I'm from the south and now he LOVES grits, especially shrimp & grits. There are numerous ways to make shrimp & grits and they are all so easy. I recommend @home with Nikki for her shrimp & grits and Paula Deen's shrimp & grits (you can find both on KZbin imagine that, lol) -----mine are a combo almost of the 2 (no recipe). It is also a good dish to make for company and you can season it the way you want---spicy or not so spicy. I like mine flavorful, but can't take the heat anymore as I have gotten older. Thanks again for another good review!!!

[@jbinthehills]

Will have to look those up Belinda. I hate grits also but loved those. Those didn't taste like any others that I had tried before. They were so spicy and that added to it. Thanks for info.😎😎

[@ramencurry6672]

Good stuff. Your belly is full

[@stevesmith-sp8xv]

We had the breakfast buffet. It was good. Everything you could want. But it reminded me of a shoneys breakfast buffet, but 2 times the cost.

[@jbinthehills]

We will have to try the breakfast sometime. Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@rainaroden2942]

That looks like it's great if you get there at the more busier times.

[@jbinthehills]

Probably would have been better. We try to go on off times because of filming. We try to not go in when it's crowded so not to film people and disturb them. Appreciate you watching 😎😎

[@tonichisum3365]

Feels like John is a tiny bit disappointed with this buffet 👍🏼

[@jbinthehills]

He was a little bit disappointed. The first time we went up to the buffet a lot of the food was cold but the second time around it was better.😎😎

[@barbaranorred1152]

The food did look good that's why I don't eat Prime Rib .I do like my Medium. I 'm from the South but don't eat Banana Pudding I don't Bananas Period. And as far As For Fried Chicken I only like the Dark meat Thighs and Legs .Merry Christmas Thanks for Sharing your honest opinion with Us.

[@jbinthehills]

Glad you enjoyed the video. Bobbie didn't care for the Prime Rib either but we enjoyed the deserts here very much. Merry Christmas to you and your family 👪 🎅🎅

[@Julie-ms9ss]

It sounds like this place was a bit of a pass. I guess they can’t all be great. Better luck next time !

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching 😎 😎

[@doriswhitlock]

I love Dolly but sorry that doesn't look worth $25

[@jbinthehills]

It was ok. Especially the second time. Pigeon Forge Restaurants are expensive and getting the drinks and deserts included with the 20 percent discount made it on par with alot of the other ones.😎😎

[@RLP1021]

I love your reviews but it shouldn’t matter what time you arrive that food should’ve been hot! There is no excuse for cold food because they don’t say well this the slow time so you only pay half price they charged you full price so I think at least give me warm food.

[@jbinthehills]

Thanks for watching and commenting 😎 😎

[@jmbear628]

offerings looked like they were there long time and left over from previous servings, not inviting. and when you both remarked food not warm that was not good.

[@jbinthehills]

The 2nd time around was a lot better. Thanks for watching 😎😎

[@janroth9131]

How did your beard grow so fast? It was shorter at the buffet.

[@amysweettea446]

Sorry it wasn’t as good as we all expected it to be…buffets are hit or miss I have found the Chinese buffets to be the best but we used to have a genuine Swedish buffet in North Palm Beach which was amazing but they closed. Would be really interested in hearing your story-how you met and all. We know about your wedding but I think a lot of us would be happy to hear about it

[@jbinthehills]

I think the buffet would have been better if there were more people at the resort ,when we went it was the off season. John and I have known one another for 20 years. We worked at the same place. We will be married seven years in April. Thanks for watching 😎 😎

Sorry Dolly, but this place looks sad and unappetizing...

[@jbinthehills]

You know Steve the first time around it just was not the best. Second time it was so much better that's why I showed some of the stuff again. This was a Sunday night with the park closed Monday so that's why it was so dead. With our discount bringing it down to 20 with drinks and deserts made it a little better. But not my first choice next time in Pigeon Forge. 😎😎

Sorry guys but that buffet looked very sparse on food and under hot lights too long for what they had....pass.

The second time it was so much better. So with discount made it 20 for us with drinks and deserts so it was average price for Pigeon Forge. 😎😎

Looking at the menu, it's funny how many restaurants/people get the vegetable's name wrong. It's Brussels sprout not Brussel. Named after the city in Belgium. Like your videos. Too bad the food was cold.
