Everything tasted fresh and made from scratch, and you can tell they put a lot of care into the quality of the food. The portions were generous, the flavors were outstanding, and every dish at our table was excellent. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between casual and upscale, making it a great place for families, couples, or anyone looking for a great meal after exploring the area. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. If you're anywhere near Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge, put The Local Goat on your list. It's the kind of place you'll want to come back to every trip. Highly recommended!

There's also a really cute general store next door that's fun to browse while you're waiting for your table. The prices were reasonable, the portions were generous, and the presentation of the food was excellent. Unfortunately, the taste just didn't live up to how good everything looked. The service was also a bit underwhelming. Everyone was friendly, but we had to ask for our used dishes to be cleared, and even then not everything was taken away. The biggest disappointment was the wait. We were told it would be around 30 minutes, but it ended up being well over an hour. Overall, the atmosphere is definitely the highlight here, it really is a gorgeous place. But with so many great breakfast options in Pigeon Forge, I'd probably try somewhere else next time.

OMFG! That praline pork chop tho!…read more Just the right amount of sweet, succulence, and crunch! Cooked to perfection! You MUST get this! I got the lunch special, which came with one pork chop. I polished it off. I believe the dinner entree comes with two! Luckies! The fried green tomatoes were also awesome, and so was the shrimp and grits which was a "lighter" version with the veggies and tomato base in the grits. The lunch specials are a steal and a healthy portion size too. Available every day 11am-4pm. Complimentary freshly baked bread served warm upon request. We had high hopes for the pies and ordered the seasonal lemonade pie. It was meh. We would pass on this one. Heather was our server and she was great! We walked in around 3pm on a Saturday and were told it'd be maybe a ten minute wait but then got a text as soon as we sat down that a table was ready! There's a free parking lot in the Old Mill area and overflow parking down the street too. GET THE PORK CHOP!

After joining the waitlist online before driving to the restaurant, we were seated immediately upon arrival at a high top in the bar area. I enjoyed the chill vibe. Our server was attentive, friendly, and helpful. I ordered the Hawaiian Ribeye. Our server said it was his favorite thing on the menu and I could see why. The steak was cooked perfectly. It was marinated in pineapple ginger sauce and then basted with teriyaki. It was absolutely juicy and delicious. I highly recommend this steak, which rivals the steaks at any of those over-priced steakhouses. The steak came with a salad and I chose the house lemon dressing. I continue to dream about this creamy, slightly salty dressing. They should definitely bottle it and sell it! I chose a baked sweet potato for a side and it was huge and unfortunately not cooked through, but I enjoyed the fully cooked parts. My husband ordered the Killin Me Burger, a full pound of meat with onion straws and thousand Island dressing on a brioche bun. He said it was the best burger he's ever had and my man knows his burgers! The bun was struggling, so my only suggestion is a sturdier bun. A really magnificent meal at a fun place! I've put it on my favorites list.

The space is nice and there's a good number of items on the menu. I liked my sandwich! Well made and the bread was nice and crispy. The service wasn't the best, though, as our waitress was super pushy. Also, the silverware all came dirty - and not just stained, we could physically pick food off of the knives. Probably would not return here.

She said no but she never checked. I saw two carry out trays sitting on top of the shelf where the kitchen staff places the food orders. Finally I walked over and had someone checked if that was my food and it was. It had been sitting there for ten minutes. I told the woman that was supposed to have checked if it was ready and her reply was "OH WELL" I had written a tip for 20% so walked over to my check and lowered it to 1%. It is a shame that they employ people with such attitudes.

It took a bit for our server to come acknowledge us but once he did, he was very helpful and attentive. My boyfriend ordered a peach Kentucky mule (they originally said they couldn't make that, which we questioned with it being a distillery, but our server came back and said they could after all). He enjoyed it and said it's one of the better ones he's had! We both ordered smash burgers and sweet potato fries - I had the junction 35 (pimento cheese + bacon jam) and he had the farmhouse (bacon + fried egg). Both were amazing! Juicy burgers, perfect size patties for smash burgers, the buns were fresh and held up nicely, and the toppings were great. Sweet potato fries had a great crunch and were seasoned really well. Service was great, food was high quality and had great flavor, and the dog friendly patio was perfect for our pup. It's located in a nice little strip of shops and restaurants, and has a common area of cornhole and other games that would be fun for an activity before/after dinner, or if you have kids in tow. We'd definitely make another trip here when in the area.

My surprise this was the place ...it's very hidden off the beaten path away from to tourists but still close to everything. The inside decor was very modern and very spacious. The service was prompt and professional. We wanted to sit outside but it was too hot. It's a cool vibe for a Teenager. He had the Nashville hot honey chicken as well as my Fiance.They both loved their food. I had the Margherita pizza and I didn't like it. Had wayyyyyy too many tomato's and I don't want no half cut tomato on my damn pizza, might as well had called it a damn tomato sandwich thats why I can't give 5 stars. The sunflower cocktail was nice. I will go again but I just can't remember what else on that menu was Vegetarian friendly. I will not order that pizza again though.

It has been a year since we've been so we were ready to return for some great food…read more Our server was efficient but... the interaction on her end seemed... flat. Not much personality. Or none. But we've definitely had much worse. It was pretty quiet when we started our meal but it became pretty busy. Parents really need to be mindful that they aren't the only ones present in a bustling restaurant and remove the screaming child making it miserable for the other guests. Twenty minutes of that was too much. Uncalled for. That comes from a parent (me). But I digress. The food was probably the best we've had since coming here. The pot roast and fish were excellent as were the potatoes, creamed corn, broccoli cheese casserole and okra (tons of seasoning which was amazing). Yes. I know it is not traditional southern okra but it's still pretty darned good. Why the four stars? One: they do not bring enough food. Before the server left the table after bringing our food, we had to ask for more potatoes and pot roast. Not enough to go around and we were taking small helpings. Then one has to wait for more. That's not the way it should be. Serving portions should be measured per number of guests per table. Not guesstimates. Two: they've started charging for desserts. What used to come with the meal is now extra. Costs are high enough as it is so we sadly skipped the ooey gooey butter cake and banana pudding. The sole reason for this review is to give a heads up about the change. All in all, the meal was delicious. Will definitely return.

Because of this, no doggie bags allowed. The food was ultra fresh - MOUTHWATERING (especially the collard greens)! Our waitress was so sweet, full of answers to all of our questions, & super attentive (our drinks never ran dry)! The restaurant is situated so that you can watch the water show out of the windows (at the Island; it occurs every 30 minutes).
