Friendly, down home place where the locals go. This place isn't glamorous. If you're looking for that, you're going to pay a lot more. I was pleased with the food and the smiling staff. It's behind (and attached to) a gas station so that's different. Overall, I would go there again.

Generic food. If you have no palette, you may be able to choke down the food, but I wouldn't recommend it. Nothing here is worth eating.

Just had breakfast here for the first time this morning. I had the biscuit and gravy with bacon,…read morescrambled eggs and added a side of cheddar rounds. My husband had the pancakes. The pancakes were just ok.... They made the batter as we ordered it so it didn't have time to absorb the flour so it wasn't all that good. He said he would try a burrito next time. I loved my biscuits and gravy. The gravy was a darker color but the sausage was so flavorful and it was light in pepper which I like because I don't like pepper. The biscuit was a really great size and fluffy. The bacon is not thick cut but still Crispy and good, eggs were cooked nicely. Now on to the cheddar rounds..... I try these all over but these are the absolute closest you will get to the Pals version. They were lacking the season salt which would have made them taste like Pals. Over all I was very happy and will definitely be back!!! Also the prices were good (pic of menu (included)

The serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner depending on the day. It's a little disconcerting when you pull up to my the entrance and slightly more as you step in the dining room. But the place, though worn, is spotlessly clean. The food that they prepare is all scratch made to order. So don't be impatient it's well worth the wait. My wife had corn dogs and fries. The corn dogs had a wonderful crunchy cornmeal crust that reminded me of my childhood (I'm pushing 70). I had the patty melt that had a very tasty yet unknown cheese that was so melty that I loved the sandwich. This place is a little out of the way but if you are anywhere near Johnson City it's worth the effort.

I haven't ate here in a couple of years and the food (the food I had) has went downhill. I also…read moredidn't know that they had lost their alcohol license which was a major bummer. For the appetizer I had the Double Dipper. The spinach dip lacked any flavor and the pimento cheese was ok. The bread points were just drowned in butter. The cucumbers were slimy and thinly sliced. Also it came with celery which I don't eat at all. The menu said fresh vegetables. I should have asked. My fault there. I got the French Broad Burger which was pretty good considering. Sweet potato fries were good too. The service was amazing! Everyone was so friendly!!! Went early on Saturday evening and unlike before it was slow but with the amount that was there it was a great little chatter time! I love the view of Main Street and the charming little mason jar lights.

They're still working on getting their alcohol license so there was no beer to drink, sadly but the food made up for the loss of it. My wife ordered the fried mushrooms which she didn't like but I thought they were good with a slight crunch and then creamy insides with an earthy flavor. We split the brisket sliders withe sweet potato fries and the brisket had a good flavor to it but I recommend getting their house BBQ sauce that was sweet with a fruity flavor but also made with veggies like carrots. It was excellent and I brought some home. What a great find for our outing here.

While staying at Broadwing Farms, Smoky Mountain Diner was recommended to us. Not only was the food…read moreamazing, the entire experience was so nostalgic that I'm looking forward to booking another stay in Hot Springs again soon and enjoying more meals here. Next time, I'm leaving room for pie. I don't believe we had just one waitress. It seems that in this quaint little Diner, everyone is looked after and checked on as a whole by staff. My Ball jar of sweet tea was never any less than half full, and that sweet tea was *chef's kiss*. We both decided on the meatloaf, and I opted for cornbread, green beans and pickled beets. I felt like I had been transported back in time and was being fed by my great great grandmother. Sounds a bit dramatic, I know. But I haven't had cornbread, meatloaf or beets like this in so many years. It did not taste like restaurant food, it tasted like home cooking. We're already planning our next little "run away from life and parenthood" to Hot Springs, and Smoky Mountain Diner is top of the "will definitely visit again" list. Thank you for treating us like family.

I was in Hot Springs for a couple of days on section hike of the Appalachian Trail. I stopped in to…read moreeat 3 different meals there over the course of three days. Day 1: Lunch. Another hiker and I decided to stop in as we got to town and have a late lunch. It had been a couple of days since we'd had town food and we were tired and hungry. The first thing I noticed was the wait to be seated. We waited about 20 minutes, and once we got to the dining area, there were several empty tables. Once we're seated and ordered, the food came out timely and was delicious. I had a cheeseburger and the cherry cobbler with ice cream. Day 2: Breakfast. Since the food was good, we decided to go back for breakfast again the next day. Again, there was a wait to be seated. We were a group of 5 so we expected there might be a wait. The waitress was friendly and our orders were placed quickly. it did take a while for the food to come out from the kitchen. I had a country breakfast plate with ham. Again the food was delicious. Day 3: Supper. We had a relatively short wait to be seated this time. We were seated and asked for some water. It took over 20 minutes to get the water. Finally a different waitress came out and took our order. I ordered the hungry hiker challenge. It is a cheeseburger with three 8-ounce burger patties on it. The menu says if you finish you get some free cobbler. While we were waiting for our food we noticed that a local who came in and sat down after we were seated had already been served and was done eating before our food arrived. I finished the burger, and some of the other patron's noticed and congratulated me. When the waitress arrived she asked if we needed anything else. I asked if the free cobbler came with ice cream on it. She said no, so I ordered ice cream to go with my cobbler. It was a peach that day. Again, the food was delicious. The main thing that I notice about the restaurant was that despite having great food, service was pretty slow. One of the hikers I ate with noticed that the waitresses seemed to have to seat the customers, take the orders, deliver the food, clean the tables, and handle the check-out at the end of the meals. It seems like the service would have been much quicker if they had someone handling the seating, check-out's, and possibly bussing and cleaning tables. The worst part of the experience was the long waits to be seated and for the food to come out. The food itself was great and I found the servers and other customers to be friendly. The furnishings were clean with a 1960's diner feel. Overall, I would hesitate to go back if I were in a hurry of any kind. If time is no object, the food is great.

Brandon was an excellent server, very attentive and friendly. All the food, like last time, was paced perfectly. Our apps and salad were not overlapped by my our entrees! And the rolls, c'mon! They're hot and delicious! We shared the onion strings app, tasted perfect and loved the dipping sauce. We also got side salads with ranch -- wow, you can tell it's made there, and just the right amount of dill in it! For entrees, wife and I shared the 14oz ribeye -- WOW, is it good -- with a side of broccoli. Good amount of marbling, perfect temp (medium), and juicy. MIL had the fried chicken, which was probably a 3 out of 5 for her. Only two of the four pieces were juicy, and to me it looked a little over cooked. We had no room for dessert, and the snow started coming down heavy, so we left after filling up. Make sure you don't assume anything with this place being in a strip mall -- it is sooooo good!

Where the atmosphere feels like Home and the service makes you feel like Family. Danielle was our server. She was Patient, and Exceptional at her job. She was welcoming, accommodating and personalable. We loved getting to Know Danielle! (Prayers for Caden!) She made sure my Husband and I were filled up on coffee and drinks while we were enjoying our Homecooked meal. I cannot Say ENOUGH good things about this Beyond Hospitable Waitress. Actually, the whole entire team that we met, were just absolutely BEYOND REMARKABLE. From the ARMY dude "Johnson" to Mrs. Freda who sat us and also gave us Great Conversation... I would be BEYOND proud of this Homey Restaurant, if I were it's Owner. Freda gave us the Amazing background on how this place came to be about 14 years ago. And you can just hear how proud she is of this Beautiful Hidden Gem and how far it has come. Thank you for Freda, for the Great Welcoming atmosphere. You're so warm and your Service is Wonderful. "JOHNSON"- We hope to one day see your coat of many colors... and we are hoping to see your "New and Improved Military Attire!!" Haha!! We loved hearing the employees bless each other with Good, Edifying Words. We did Not hear ONE swear word. It's SO Family Friendly. They gave our Son like 6 crayons to color with, and d they have high chairs. Everything on the menu sounded SO delicious. My Husbamd and I were given gift certificates for Our Anniversary, so we had decided to "treat ourselves" with the Fried Green Maters and the Spinach Articoke Dip! HOLY COW. Their Spinach Artichoke recipe is better than mine... And the Fried Green Maters were just ABSOLUTELY MINDBLOWING. (This was our first time ever trying them- EVER) The Creamy Mustard they give you with it is smooth and tangy. Whereas the Ranch based sauce was our Favorite and Packed with Flavor that just intensified the flavor of the Maters!!! Astounding. We have never ate such Great Food. (The Burps were just as good!! Haha! ) The Quality and Price of the food are beyond Enjoyable. And VERY LOW PRICED!! The Philly Cheese steak was wonderful and My Husbands Reuban was SO big he couldn't even wrap his mouth around it. Safe to say, we left SO full. And with 4 boxes of Leftovers. We Cannot WAIT to come back. Get your Loved Ones ain't Certificate, and Prepare to have your minds BLOWN. WE WILL BE BACK SOON AND WE Are REALLY looking forward to it. The food was so delectable, we were sad when all the leftovers were gone.NEVER ATE FOOD THAT TASTY OR EVER HAD REMARKABLE SERVICE LIKE THAT. THE FOOD WAS SO GOOD, We even tipped the cooks. We have never had food taste like that, and we have been thinking about it ever since we went. Loved the Signage and Christian Music. This Place is Perfect. God Bless the Owners, Cooks, and ALL the Staff here at this Restaurant. My Recommendations: -FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH THE SAUCES... YOU'LL BE THINKING ABOUT IT FOR DAYS!! - Spinach Artichoke Dip!! I have NO words... -Coffee was brewed Fresh and Hot with Robust Taste! -Hot Dogs (for kids) with the Mac N Cheese... our Son LOVED it!! -The Steak Tips, with Onions and Peppers. LITERALLY cooked to Perfection. -The Reuban Sandwich!! -Anything you get, I guarantee will be SO Delicious. Pros: -Great, Quiet Location. Easy to Find with Maps! -The Coffee was Fresh and Flavorful. -Every SINGLE staff member was Courteous, BEYOND Hospitable, and Attentive. Loved forming the Relationships we Did. -BEST SERVICE WE HAVE EVER HAD. -Plenty of Parking -Great Decor, Funny Sinage, very Clean and Welcoming. (We saw People cleaning and taking Pride in their Restaurant when we went) -CHEAP PRICES WITH QUALITY FOOD AND TASTE...I cannot brag on this enough!!! -Portion Sizes will BLOW. YOUR .MIND. (If the Taste and service doesn't do that already.) -Family & Friendly Atmosphere that holds strong to Family and Christian Virtues/Values. Cons: - WHAT IS A CON?!? We Can't WAIT to be back!
