    Dollar bill

    Our Airbnb was nearby, and we stopped here for a quick meal before our flight, with only three hours to spare. The restaurant was very nice inside, and the service was friendly. However, it took nearly an hour for us to get our food, which was challenging with two hungry kids in tow. After about 45 minutes, we were finally told the food was on its way. The food itself was decent, though nothing exceptional. A fun touch was leaving a dollar bill on the old car inside the restaurant, which the kids enjoyed. Just a note: the restaurant wasn't busy at the time we visited, though we did see long lines outside on other days.

    If you want to go on a drive in the country while in near Pigeon Forge, then go to Hillbilly's. It's not new. It's not as many people overuse the term a "hidden gem." No, instead it's a place with country food, and staying power. Breakfast is amazing. I had a ham and cheese omelet, Hashbrowns, and gravy and biscuits. All great. But they have these mini biscuits covered in sweet cinnamon butter. They are great! They have a breakfast bar on the weekends. They serve other meals but we visited in the AM after driving a scenic loop. They sell shirts. They have a cool truck in the middle of the restaurant (it's not gimmicky feeling, it works) If you are in the area and want to try something new, give this place a shot. It's been there since 2013. Hours Monday-Thursday 8am-2pm Friday-Sunday 8am-8pm Hillbilly's Restaurant 3275 Wears Valley Road, Sevierville, Tennessee

    If you don't mind an hour plus wait for pancakes and eggs, this is a very good spot to get the Smoky Mountain resort area's most popular menu item: pancakes. And they serve a good one, too. Syrup is warm as it should be and pancakes are the size of a dinner plate. Our two pancake breakfast made for two meals!!!

Tennessee Haystack was good, although it came out incorrect the first time.... chicken and waffles mediocre at best. Small chicken tenders similar to something that you'd get at a convenience store. Isn't this considered to be part of the South? Trying to get our check became a struggle. Waitress disappeared. Young man at the cash register was able to figure it out finally and we were able to pay. Biggest issue, noise. If you are even slightly bothered by loud noise, DO NOT sit inside. What amplifies the issue, is multiple families would line up to pay. Not only increasing the noise by us, it caused for congestion in the area by the kitchen for the servers.

Never have I really ventured outside of that and I couldn't actually tell you why. When my kids and I made a quick 1 day Dollywood trip over to Pigeon Forge, 23 we're looking for a place to eat prior to the big day at the park. What's funny is I relied in Googles AI (Gemini) to tell me where to go. I was driving around and was asking for recommendations. It said Mama's Farmhouse was a popular place to eat for families and it was all-you-can-eat. The kids wanted fried chicken and Salisbury steak, which was in the menu for that day. What a coincidence! If I could summarize it, this is basically a local Cracker Barrel-style restaurant but the food is a lot better. It's tucked away off of a side road off of the main highway 321 road and reminds me a lot of the Applebarn Restaurant down the road. The ambiance is this old timey feel, like many of the establishments around the area. The fried chicken (bone-in), chicken tenders, fries catfish, and Salisbury steak was what we ordered for our mains. Everything was delicious! The seasoning had the perfect amount of salt across all the dishes and sides. The chicken was juicy and tender. The Salisbury steak was solid, some of the best I've ever had. Savory, rich brown gravy, and tender chunks of beef. All the sides were amazing too, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and chicken and dumplings. Honestly there wasn't a negative thing about this place. I would go back in a heartbeat!!

    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.
