The food is good and the place is very clean and the whiters is every nice good good

If you are looking for a dining experience that perfectly captures that warm, Tennessee hospitality paired with top-tier comfort food, Preston's Steakhouse in Oneida is an absolute must-visit. Whether you're a local or just passing through the Big South Fork area, this place feels like home from the second you walk through the door. The first thing you'll notice is the incredible vibe. It has a cozy, lodge-like feel with rustic wooden accents, western cedar tables, and even an elk horn chandelier that sets the perfect tone for a hearty meal. It's the kind of place that's "fancy" enough for a special anniversary or birthday, yet casual enough to walk into after a day of trail riding or hiking. Now, let's talk about the main event. Their steaks are hand-cut daily and grilled over hickory wood, which gives them a smoky depth you just can't find at big chain restaurants. We both had the Cowboy-Cut Ribeye, which is the star of the show. It was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked exactly to my preferred temperature. Do not skip this! It's rare to find a really great salad bar these days, but Preston's does it right--everything is fresh, crisp, and well-stocked. It's a great value add to any meal. For our sides we had the garlic mashed potatoes, they are creamy and flavorful, and the fried pickles are the perfect crispy appetizer to kick things off. Believe it or not, they also do a fantastic hickory-smoked BBQ and even specialty pizzas. If you have someone in your group who isn't in the mood for steak, their pulled pork and "The Works" pizza are excellent alternatives. The staff here really makes the experience. Our server was attentive without being overbearing and had that genuine friendliness that makes you want to come back. Even when they get busy (which they do on Friday and Saturday nights!), the food comes out hot and the sweet tea stays full. If you're a motorcycle enthusiast or traveling with a horse trailer, they have dedicated parking in the back that is easy to navigate, which is a huge plus in this area. Preston's Steakhouse is easily the best spot in Scott County for a high-quality meal and a great atmosphere. Large portions, reasonable prices, and that unmistakable hickory-grilled flavor. We will definitely be back. read more

I have been sitting here for 30 minutes and haven't even gotten a drink! They are very under staff and need to hire. They need to work on their service! read more

Service was great but the food was not. I ordered the steak tips medium well with my sides as fried okra and a baked potato. Baked potato was not done and basically room temp as well as my okra. Steak tips were undercooked and grisly. I was so disappointed because I chose the place. Didn't take pics but should have. read more

I ordered ahead to pick up and my food was ready when I got there (about 20 min after I called). I ordered the grilled shrimp with a side of garlic mashed potatoes and rice. The shrimp and mashed potatoes were good but the rice was not. For the price (~$20) I'd say it wasn't worth it. read more

I would give this place a solid 3-1/2 stars. Our party of 4 all enjoyed the ribs but my additional chicken was not barbecued and dry. The Mac-n-cheese was tasted like it came out of a frozen box, not homemade. My broccoli was cooked too long. The sweet potatoes were cooked just right. The side salad was a good size better than we expected! Spring mix with bacon and cheese. Prices were reasonable. The ambiance was cabin cozy and clean. Staff was very friendly. They do not offer any liquor option which was surprising as a glass of wine with steak seems right. Steak with ribs were cooked right. The ribs were cooked perfectly and delicious. The BBQ sauce on them was very good. They got something's right and room for improvement with other things. read more

Saturday March 15th, Tony and I stopped for lunch...Okay, I try to be as honest as possible without being rude so here I go...Tony and I was in Oneida, TN after hiking for a few hours and we were hungry. I didn't want to eat too much...kind of defeats the odds of all the stair climbing and hiking...and I always rule out fast food..but I keep telling myself...pack a picnic lunch ...pack a picnic lunch..but today we didn't... This little town has very little choices if not Mexican or fast food, so we found PRESTON's...it looked okay from the outside. The inside was very large and the decorations were very nice. Everything was dark and heavy wood. Everything was southwestern decor with Animal heads, antlers, big fireplace...it was very nice. I really liked the homey feel of the dining room., but it stops there. Take that back. Our waitress was prompt and friendly. She started several conversations with us and was very nice. Tony opted to order the Smoked Sausage Spaghetti with sweet tea (no beer or alcohol) and I ordered chicken noodle soup and southwestern eggrolls for appetizer to share with Tony.. Where do I start..The soup was very thick and salty. It tasted more like a chicken pasta dish instead of a soup...there was no broth it was all thick gravy..I ate a portion of the cup, not much it was way to salty for my taste. The egg rolls was the appetizer but it arrived with the lunch entree so we snacked on it but it was over cooked on the outside and doughy inside..the cook has the oil way too hot..burning on the outside and not getting the inside done at all.. the ranch dressing was just plain ranch dressing... Tony's spaghetti was canned sauce poured over overcooked noodles and had about 8 pieces of polish sausage cut up and laying on top with two pieces of garlic toast (burnt) not sure what happened since there was only about three other tables in the entire restaurant on Saturday at 2pm.. I still left my waitress a 25% tip...she was nice and the restaurant clean..but I would NOT EAT here again or recommend to others. read more

Very good food at very reasonable prices. My husband and I own a local Airbnb and wanted to try this restaurant to know if we should recommend them to guests. We definitely will. My husband ordered the Whiskey River Steak with broccoli and a loaded baked potato. Loaded baked potatoes means just bacon and cheese, but the waitress told us that up front upon ordering. The steak was smaller than expected but my husband loved it all. I ordered catfish with garlic mashed potatoes and cinnamon apples. The cinnamon apples are a side dish that doubles as a dessert. It was all fantastic. We also ordered the onion loaf. It was good, but small for the price and not impressive at all. I would definitely skip next time. read more

We went here on the word of someone else. We were not let down. The salad bar is small but it is great. Our server Courtney was amazing. The steaks tasted fine even though they were overcooked and we had to have them make us new ones, they came out perfect. The ribs were great, the fries and sweet potato were great also. The chicken noodle soup was okay. The apple pie and cheesecake was okay also. Definitely would eat here again. read more

great food clean dining area and restrooms great family atmosphere service was amazing

Small portions, food high and prices never right on menu. Beware!

We waited over an hour for our appetizer. We had to flag down a waitress when we needed something, they did not visit our table other than to drop food off. Our toddler was crying for his food, and even asked to leave. We are a very patient family, but are very unimpressed by this restaurant. read more

Preston's is about the best restaurant in Oneida for special occasions; the exterior is a log cabin and the inside has lots of ambience. High ceilings, interesting country memorabilia and a roaring fire in the winter. The menu includes steak, chicken and fish and there is a salad bar. It has a traditional menu and beer is available. We have never had to make a reservation. It is a little expensive. read more

I had a university group traveling through the area and we stopped here to eat. We were on a schedule and needed to get in and out in an hour with 18 people in our party. We had phoned ahead to be sure that they could accommodate us and they assured us that they could. They were true to their word! We got in and out in a timely manner and EVERYONE enjoyed their food. We thoroughly enjoyed our stop and recommend it to any in the area! read more

Great ~ Very Affordable ~ lunch menu. My husband had a hamburger and fries. He was truly impressed with the affordability and quality of food. I tried the chicken fajita. Authentic flavors and homemade refried beans. The guacamole is fresh made from scratch and honestly the best I've had. We're looking forward to trying steaks on the Hibachi Grill soon. Angie, the owner is a pleasant hostess and the waitstaff is knowledgeable and accomodating. Beautiful setting ~ all cedar walls and comfortable decor. read more

Smaller salad bar but the food was good. They also have really good waitresses and some fireplaces for those cooler evenings or days. Beautiful chandelier and motorcycle! Surrounded by old farming equipment and wagons. read more

Best breakfast in Oneida. Only open for breakfast on weekends. The two ladies who run the breakfast are well known in the area for their culinary skills. The best biscuits in Tennessee. read more

Food was ok but I do not recommend the garlic mashed potatoes. My nephew got 7 French fries. We counted.

This has amazing service and very good food the steaks were amazing the sweet tea was the best I've ever had but the honey spread didn't even have a taste but the Fries made up because they were cooked perfectly the crowdedness is a medium I personally had no wait but overall it was a great experience 5/5 read more

Food was good but waitress hitting on my husband, not cool!! We haven't been back. He was uncomfortable and I was mad. Really wish we felt good about eating here again, as the food was good. read more

We went there as a family of 5 and experienced lovely service. The food was good too. Would recommend trying the place out

#1 best steak house !!! The New Orleans steak is amazing !!! Service is outanding, and no matter what you order. YOU WILL be loaded full and satisfied. If your looking for a steak that taste so amazing, you would rather pick it up like a pizza and eat it rather then the traditional slicing it piece by piece. Then eat Preston's !!!!! read more

Pleasant surprise in a small town! Burgers are very good. Steak and loaded baked potato is pretty good. Staff is friendly and service is above average. Salad bar is OK if iceberg is your choice of lettuce. Best non-fast food option in town! read more

My family thoroughly enjoyed the food here. My fish dinner was surprisingly good for a steak place, my hubby bragged on his steak platter. Will do this again. read more

Ok,I'm sorry but every time I come here there is always an issue.the steak isn't fixed right or the potato is cold or you have to almost beg a waitress to fill up your Coke glass.and these are times when it's been slow.however I have had a couple of good experiances.but that's like 2 or 3 out of 10..maybe this is one of those places where you only go when they are busy to assure they have enough help to take care of you.last visit was about a year ago so maybe they're better now.if I roll the dice and go back I'll update my review:) read more

Over priced. Food is always bad. Go to RaeZacs and get good food at a reasonable price. You will have the time while you are waiting to be seated and before your lousy food arrives. The atmosphere is awesome though, if you like the cabin look. Suggestion: rent a cabin and cook your own food and save. read more

Everything was awsome. My steak was well done and juicy just way I like it . I would totatlly recomend dining here.
