I love these types of videos from the Smoky Mountain family, these are the kind that I put in my saved videos. Thank you.

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

Aww thanks so much Donna

[@TerraLynn-nk9eq]

I love how you guys talk about the accessibility at these places. My parents are older and have mobility issues, so it helpful to know how accessible places are. Great content as always!

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

I had a uncle with mobility issues so once you are knowledgeable to look it’s something you always do naturally. Thanks so much for watching

[@Wesner77]

I have to say that this was the best restaurant review I have seen for Gatlinburg. Your explanations were perfect. Also, I am glad you mentioned Joe and Pops. That place is great!

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

That’s good to hear! Thanks so much glad you enjoyed

[@derekbond3824]

Thank you so much for this. My family is visiting from NYC and we plan to visit a couple of your recommendations

[@kevinstewart7636]

We have been to Gatlinburg a few times in the past several years with two other couples. We stay in a favorite AirBnB, and hike and explore the surrounding mountains, and trails. This list is perfect! We are always looking for different dining experiences. Next time we go, we'll definitely look up a couple of these restaurants. Thanks for the suggestions!

[@dashingrapscallion]

So many great restaurants to choose from! I only have two that I absolutely can not miss when I go to Gatlinburg. Those are Cherokee Grill and The Pancake Pantry. I dream of those two all year long 😂

[@karibell9639]

J.O.E and POP’s was one of our favorites. We ate at so many good places when we visited the Smokies last year for our honeymoon, but J.O.E and POP’s was only 5-10 mins from our cabin, so we ended up getting lunch there twice during the week and absolutely loved it! Highly recommend! Awesome video as always guys 😊

Just found this video. We go to Gatlinburg at least once a year and have I never eaten at any of these restaurants. Always glad to hear of new places to try. We love the best Italian place on the strip since 1 calzone can easily feed two adults. Now I'll have to try the one you recommend, specially since I graduated from UK. Thanks!

If you like that place you will LOVE a taste of Italy its a totally different level. Thanks so much for watching Chris

Nice video guys, we visited a few weeks ago and we always stay in the arts and crafts district. We passed Crystal creek 100 times and finally ate there, wow was it good. It's a must try for anyone.

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

Thats a great pick! Hope you had a great vacation

[@iclocal8900]

We were in Gatlinburg a few days ago and tried out a couple of you top five. The Cherokee Grill was a bust for us. I had the teriyaki steak which I ordered medium well and it came out well done. It was very tough and it had no flavor. My son wasn't thrilled with the limited menu. My husband said his steak was okay. We were expecting more from all of the good reviews we had read about them. Maybe they were just having an off night when we were there. We also checked out the Taste of Italy and it was very tasty! We couldn't believe how big the portions were. I had the Philly Cheesesteak and my son had a Chicken Parm sub. They were so big we just ate half and took the rest to the park the next day. My husband had a chicken pasta dish he said was delicious. We also liked the Garlic knots. Great tasting food and at a good price. The staff was very friendly and nice too.

[@andrewjackson5127]

You weren't having an off night, we had a TERRIBLE experience at the Cherokee. Walked out without eating our entree in fact. We never do that.

It is

[@wildcatcountry-bigbluenation]

You guys recommended Smoky Mountain Brewery, so we ended up going there the last time I was in Gatlinburg. Within that week, I ate there 3x's. The food is great, and the parking on top of that, makes it gold. As you know we already love JOE & Pops. We're for sure going to have to try The Taste of Italy. Those folks have great taste!

Excuse my ignorance but several of these you said were on East Parkway where exactly is that? Sad to say but I have only been in the downtown area of Gatlinburg. I stay in Pigeon Forge for the shows and shopping and drive in from there to park around the Aquarium and walk the strip.

[@gatlinburgnow2352]

Our favorite is Cherokee Grill. We loved the food at Taste of Italy. Definitely authentic Italian fare, but I'll take the pizza at Best Italian over any in town. We also love the Brewery! We'd love to some day visit the Greenbrier since we've heard so many positive things about it. It's certainly a little pricey for us, but we wouldn't mind a nice evening dinner splurge during one of our visits in the future. Always nice seeing what the locals think, since we as tourists offer up our favorites every so often.

My wife and I are coming in October for our 26th Anniversary. Where would you recommend I take her to dinner for our Anniversary.

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

In our opinion, the only place appropriate for such an occasion would be the Greenbrier. It’s hands down the best place for a special occasion. Plus, and I’m not certain of this, but when you make a reservation let them know it’s for an anniversary. They may do something special. Thanks so much for watching!

There used to be a family owned Italian place in the strip mall across from the grocery store on 321 where this restaurant is now that had the best pizza at good prices but I think the owners retired and it was gone for a long time.

[@bfree8062]

Just caught the video while recovering from covid. When I saw Cherokee Grill was first on your list I knew we were kindred spirits. With the Burg undergoing so many changes, not good changes, it’s nice to see a familiar favorite restaurant surviving. In addition to the awesome food and environment it has history from spending time there with someone special and it takes me back every time I go in there. Another place I suggest is the Park Vista Hotel restaurant for breakfast. It’s a little pricey for breakfast but everything is included. This video has made me look forward to my next trip, and I will try out the new places you suggested!

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

Aww thanks so much. We haven’t tried breakfast there we did lunch and loved it especially the view. Will definitely be trying

[@tonyfields8968]

We finally got to try ctystalle creek this past week when we were up there. We were going to Alamo but switched it up based on yall's recommendation. We enjoyed the atmosphere and seated immediately. We ordered and got our food fairly quickly. However, I would have to disagree with it being better than Alamo (steak wise). The seasoning was good but not enough to put it above Alamo. Also listing all steaks at maket price doesn't help. Would go back for sure to try other items just not solely for steaks. Thank yall for all you do and helping us discover new places to eat.

[@SmokyMountainFamily]

Thanks Tony! We used to love Alamo the passed couple times we went had been a miss I guess it just depends on help. ❤️

Please help me understand, why didn't The Peddler Steakhouse make your list? What criteria was used which made The Peddler miss the cut?
