    French toast - Good
    Sowmya V.

    Good spot for a quick breakfast at Cherokee, NC. French toast was freshly made and tasted good & the waffle was okay too. It looked like an unassuming place from the outside but was bustling with people inside. Counter style seating, order the food and they bring it to you. Prices were high as it's a tourist spot (Cherokee is a tourist trap beware) close to Smoky Mountains.

    Thought we leave the casino road to get some breakfast out of the crowds. Disappointed the food was so so at best. Cappuccino so sweet hardly drinkable. Order the iron skillet breakfast for 12.99 and an omelette and pancakes. The skillet and omelet did not come with any toast or biscuit. I asked for no peppers on everything and she said it was it was an onion pepper mixture so I ordered the skillet without onion and peppers and left the omelet as is thinking I would pick them out but oh there were sooo many. I couldnt even finish have of it. The skillet only came with 1 egg. Everything is lack flustered and over priced. Don't waste your time foodies!

    Pancake and a sausage patty
    Samantha G.

    Ambiance: Diner style Food: Plenty of pancakes (at least 3-4 in the stack), but 1 sausage patty. Wish they'd give 2 sausage patties instead and less pancakes IMO. The food was good, the pancakes were fluffy, the sausage was seasoned, nothing to rave about. Service: Friendly, counter order. Someone will bring your food out. You leave your dirty dishes at the table once you're done eating.

    Biscuit  and gravy
    Will C.

    I was on a trip with my girlfriend and on our way out i stop at this place to get some breakfast, this is small town so i didn't know what to expect but i will say food was good, is not the best place i have ever been but definitely a good place, i have never had biscuits with gravy so this was my first time trying them and they were pretty good, i had some eggs, sausage, potatoes and grits which i don't like, overall the meal was good a big portion, my girlfriend doesn't eat breakfast but she ate the grits and some of the biscuit and she liked, coffee was hot and good. Service was fast and the atmosphere very peaceful. As always this is my personal opinion.

    My favorite breakfast place i found on multiple vacations to cherokee. Extremely reasonably priced with friendly staff and seems to be where a lot of locals go. They open early and have a drive through so you can get to the hiking trails faster! I had the sausage, egg, and cheese croissant and my dad had the biscuits and gravy and everything was delicious.

    This little place is attached to a gas station so it's very unassuming. Our family of 8 tried a LOT of things. The staff is friendly and helpful with the menu. The double cheeseburger was thick, and juicy, the footlong hotdog was the best I've had in a long time! The bologna croissant is delicious! We would eat here a lot if we were local!

    I just love gas station restaurants! Mabel's was no exception! Greeted with a friendly "How yall doing today?" And all of our menu questions answered! Hearty portions, cooked as requested, and a follow up to make sure we enjoyed it all! Nice & clean with a gas station store next door. Give Mabel's a try!

    Big kahuna burrito

    Food was delicious! We had the big kahuna burrito. Seasoned perfectly! Took a minute to get our food but it was worth the wait! Busy place!

    First I'd like to say, we are local full-time residents of Bryson City. Not that this should make…read moreany difference but to some it may. Everett Street Diner is our most favorite place for breakfast - hands down. Hubby and I have tried many items, none have disappointed. Fresh, hot, correctly cooked, presentation, service, hospitality, coffee, atmosphere, and prices - all are spot on fabulous. The owner - Mr Everett Street Diner ALWAYS greets everyone with a smile and friendly conversation. Family oriented, he welcomes you in, sits you down and makes you feel like you're in his kitchen. If (more like when) you wait for your table, it's never long. The staff bust their butts and don't make you feel rushed at all. This morning we/the restaurant celebrated, as an entire group, the expected January arrival of a little girl, and three birthdays!!! And yes, we ALL sang happy birthday. Well, except for Mr Everett, apparently he doesn't sing and will tell ya so!! Seriously though, if you're looking for a good meal, friendly service, and a place you can't wait to come back to ..... try Everett Street Diner!! Oh, and if you're looking for a little heat and spice? You've GOTTA try their spicy diner relish!!! We're on our 4th jar and have gifted 3 jars out to friends, family and a great barkeeper in San Antonio (but that's a different story)! Love you all at Everett Street Diner!!!

The country Benedict featured the best southern biscuit, at a restaurant, that's not mine, that I've ever had. Service was excellent! You're greeted warmly outside and that sets the tone well. The ambiance is very diner homey. This is an experience! Destination stop in Bryson City!

The bagels were very different from any we have had before, had a very home baked bread taste. The sweet potato bowl was very flavorful and hit just the right note for lunch. We did get a couple baked goods to go as well. The coffee was pretty good, they have tons of flavors to choose from and make some signature drinks too. The staff is very friendly and will give excellent recommendation. The decor is rustic cute. Worth a visit!!!

    What's the difference between a sloth and a barista at La Dolce Vita Bakery?…read more Beats me. For a busy coffee house? 10 minutes from order is the norm for a place with its act together. 15 minutes? Newbie time. 25 minutes? Def ownership understaffing. 32 minutes, from order? I've been here before. Tourist. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Once upon a time? They had a good enough selection of decent pastries, in the case. Today? Sparse, like the Sahara of Sweet. A couple of very unappetizing cookies. No croissant. No cinnamon rolls. Ehhhhh. Dolce expanded their cafe menu. Likewise it, too, is slothmade and slothserved. With success comes a certain level of complacency. Even arrogance. $30, for your t-shirt? Baker, please. This has been a destination spot, for tourists. Competition, with the level around them, should provide incentive to get their act together. Kind of sad.

The meat and three along with the vegetable only options are welcomed changes to the family style only meal for those desiring smaller portions. In our experience, the food was served hot and was perfectly prepared. We chose white meat chicken and received two large breast that were excellent! The two catfish fillets and four slices of meat loaf were delicious. The vegetables were Lima beans, cabbage casserole, creamed corn, potatoes au gratin, slaw and a spring salad. All were served fresh with two biscuits and two corn muffins. The relish, apple butter and Sogrum-sage butter were delightful. We were blessed to have April for our server, and highly recommend her for your visit. She shared the history of the area and is proud of the changes and history of the Dillard House. Thank you for a great meal. The fried chicken is better than I remembered. Yes, the restaurant is open, and parts of the motel are being remodeled/updated and the new hotel is under construction. Don't let the remodeling deter you from the eating at the restaurant or enjoying your favorite drink from the bar.

    Poor service, poor food quality. Not impressed at all…read more Ambience is nice, very spacious, newly built, restaurant. Friendly staff. Not very attentive at all. Say for 15 minutes before the manager had to obtain a server for our table. After the food was delivered, the server did not provide adequate service. I requested a water refill, which took an additional 15 minutes, because she continually forgot. Food quality wasn't the greatest. They served chicken, which consisted of 2 thighs and 2 drumsticks. Along with friend catfish filets, that had been way over salted. Both were very soggy. I ate half the thigh and quit. Veggies? Only vegetables were Lima beans, everything else considered vegetables, was a casserole. A table full of starches. Over rated and over priced. Sadly disappointed. If you want good southern food, go further south to Thomasville, GA. Go to O'Neals. You can fool some folks, but not someone that knows southern cooking. We won't return.
