    The owner is very personable. The business started in a food truck and then took over a historical buger spot. I personally think they are doing the spot justice. This is NOT your quick burger pick up: this man is portioning, cooking, and setting up the burgers TO ORDER. making what you get hot and delicious. Made with the love of a man who really seems to enjoy feeding his community and its visitors. The grill holds liike 16 patties and all the burgers are at minimum 2 patties so you do the math on how many he can cook at one time. The grilled potato salad is loaded with red potatoes, cheese, bacon, and chives then pressed in the grill. The burgers are smash burgers and have a beautiful crunch all around the outside. The bun is heated on the grill then given to his son who takes the care of a master artist putting all the ingredients for what his patron has ordered. The burgers were juicy and the patties have FLAVOR! I suggest bringing your patience as they get busy but all worth it in the end. Fries are cooked to order. Don't eat beef no worries they have chicken burgers too. So get over yourself and get a delicious burger from the gas station.

    Words honestly don't do it justice. This place deserves to be highlighted, underscored, and shouted from the rooftops. The best smash burger on the planet. Quality ingredients, amazing people, and everything you love about a true local small business. Take a bow, Meeks Kitchen!

    Always excellent food, when you go be prepared, they stay busy but get the food to you pretty quick. It is in a gas station so there is limited seating. It's fun to watch the owner and his kids work the grill! Great place and you have to try the loaded grilled potato salad if it's not sold out when you go!! The big boy gourmet burger is excellent but I've tried most of them and everything excellent!! For desert get the homemade cheese cake from La Creme

    This is a hidden gem! If you've been searching for the ultimate smash burger, then THIS is the place! This is our go-to place when craving a burger. Burgers are flavorful and well cooked, seasoned fries are delicious, locally made cheesecakes are decadent, and the owner and his family are a pleasure to speak with. Don't forget to add an egg to any burger! And don't let this location or the prices fool you...these are gourmet burgers! Fill up your gas tank and your belly at one stop. It will be your go-to spot for burgers and you'll be looking forward to your next visit before you've left the parking lot. We can't recommend Meeks enough!

    So, so good!! Top Notch

    As a local content creator here in Gatlinburg The Gatlinburg Hussey, I absolutely love these burgers here at Meeks kitchen.. They're freshly made and the owner is so nice and a pleasure to chat with! I highly recommend visiting and it's locally owned too! They're located in the Marathon Gas station in Sevierville across from Walmart. I try to visit once a month too ..Make this a stop when you're craving a burger on the Smokies

    The Outlaw and grilled loaded potato salad

    Amazing burgers! Heard about this place from a friend and it does not disappoint. Love the grilled loaded potato salad too! Everything is hot and fresh. Owner/workers are all super polite and do a great job. I love supporting this local business. They need a standalone store. They would do very well!

    This food truck was parked at hubby's work, in Newport TN. Since most the areas restaurants are closed due to Helena's damage, this was a godsend for the area. This is on their facebook, page. Farm raised grass fed beef! Gourmet burgers, artfully crafted and have an upscale vibe. We are family owned and operated., creating our rig from the ground floor up. We take pride in great food from high quality ingredients. Hubby got the Black & Blue. With blackened seasoning, crumbled blue cheese, 57 sauce, crispy onions, chipotle aioli,spring mix, tomatoes. And it comes with seasoned crinkle seasoned fries. He said it was delicious, juicy, tastefully done.

    We had heard about their burgers on Facebook. We stopped by while enjoying our vacation. We got a couple of burgers and they were very good and high quality. Definitely will be back when we're back in Pigeon Forge.

    Great fresh smashburgers. Was not a fan of my burger (A1 Steakhouse) because there wasn't enough aioli and the lettuce/tomato really dominated the flavor. My husband had the Oklahoma and it was great! Overall good burgers and the bacon is super thick cut.

    BBQ Steer Burger with Hot Potato Salad

    I seen this place thanks to a YouTuber I watch and wanted to try it. We were definitely glad we did. The young man at the counter was so polite, friendly, helpful and overall a nice kid. The loved the burgers plus the Cajun fries and hot potato salad. We came back the next day and the food was on point again. Customer service is great from everyone and food was so good. We end up going on the last two days we were in town or might have went everyday. Prices are very affordable and worth every penny(well I guess nickel now). We come every year and now this will be a must.

We started out with mozzarella sticks for our appetizers! So good! Some of the best I have ever had! I had a club sandwich with potato salad! So good! I thought they could have used some more meat but it was ok! My fiancée had the meatloaf on top of mashed potatoes and okra on the side! It's in a strip mall but it has a sport bar vibe!

We shared the cheese curds, then I ordered the blue cheese burger with fries, and my boyfriend had the BFD burger with potato salad. Everything was so delicious! Burgers were juicy and full of toppings, bun was fresh and tasty. Fries (crinkle) were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside - perfect! The curds were also amazing - perfect ratio of cheese to breading, and the dip included was a thai chili situation which was unique and complemented them perfectly! They also brought out a bowl of water for our pup and were very welcoming to her and loved on her. Our server was attentive and kind. Overall a wonderful experience and recommend!

    We went on a Saturday early evening and although the place was almost empty, we got asked if we had…read morea reservation.... Umm I don't think we needed one. No wonder they are closing but we are still sad about that. We waited for about 7 minutes for someone to approach our table! When she did, she immediately apologized took our drink order and told us to pick an appetizer on the house! Now that's how you handle that situation! And the reason for the 4 star review. We actually got the pepperoni flatbread pizza for our appetizer and I am so happy we did because it was so yummy! I was pleasantly surprised honestly! Both of us got Burgers with fries and tots which were really good too! The waitress really made our visit special after a bad start to our dinner! Hopefully we will be able to get back before they close for good! As huge music fans we enjoy the music and decorations throughout the restaurant! Come on! They have The Rev's drum kit in there!!!! We're going to miss you guys!

As a child, it was a bit more well kept and almost majestic, but I could tell this most recent visit that the building interior and exterior could use some work. Otherwise, the live entertainment was incredible and food was exactly what I expected, and that's exactly what I needed for my nostalgia trip up to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Service was a bit spread thin and upon entering the restaurant there were no hosts to let us know where to go or wait for them; very strange entrance way. We started walking to the right of the host stand, met immediately by a gentleman running up. Servers were also stretched thin, but much friendlier! We're frequent Smoky Mountain visitors, and may be back but with all of the local and less corporatized options you reading and I have to enjoy in this glorious town and region, I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't return until we have kids. Cheers friends
