    Let me start by saying this is longer than most of my reviews and we loved everything about the…read moreDancing Bear. We were celebrating my wife's birthday and it was our first time dining there. The restaurant is tucked into a nice wooded area near the foothills of the Smoky Mountains. There is outdoor seating available, a firepit area with make your own smores, and indoor seating which is where we dined. We were greeted as soon as we entered and waited at the bar where Ian served us (he was great) until our reservation time (doubt we could have got in without the reservation). The bar had a huge selection of bourbon including many allocated bottles. My wife had a spicy margarita which she loved. We were promptly seated at our reservation time. Our server, David, brought us some of their famous cornbread it reminded me of couple of pieces of cake except it was cornbread with a delicious sorghum syrup and whipped butter. It was unique and delicious. We started with trio of dips - sharp cheddar pimento cheese, butter bean hummus, and my favorite smoked salmon rillette. These were served with sea salt crackers and pickled vegetables. It was all tasty and the smoke salmon had so much flavor. I had delicious thick cut pork chop topped with peach and jalapeno jam. It was cooked perfectly, tender and juicy and the topping added a fantastic spicy tang. The sides were charred baby carrots, green beans, a spoonbread with red-eye gravy and red pepper emulsion. My wife had a filet with bearnaise sauce and Yukon potatoes with cauliflower, sweet peppers, mushrooms and braised onions. It was cooked exactly as ordered with such a great taste and so tender. David brought my with a complementary piece of pie made with Cruze Farm buttermilk topped with berries and a lemon drizzle. It was a fantastic experience and we were so happy with everything. Everything was pricey for the area, but well worth it for what we received.

    From out of town and I got a lot of recommendations to try the bistro at Dancing Bear. The bistro…read morewas a bit further drive up the long driveway where the map takes you, and that's where all the bnbs are as well. You're tucked away in the forest with the most peaceful ambiance in the evening! The waiter introduced the menu to us and mentioned that the ingredients were all mostly locally sourced and or grown in their garden when you first turn onto the driveway. So great to know exactly where your food is coming from! For the starter, I shared the crab corn chowder - and the waiter was kind enough to split the soup into two bowls with my partner. This was a perfect starter! Creamy, a little smokey, and not too heavy like your typical chowder. Lacking in the crab department, but it's as you would suspect with anything advertising 'containing crab' at a restaurant. We were also given complimentary corn bread and it was delicious. Such a nice surprise and I definitely preferred having the cornbread over regular bread! The service was a little slow, especially to bring the appetizer and bread out, but I wasn't too bothered since it didn't seem like we were rushed to finish our meal. I ordered the filet mignon (med rare) as my main. The flavors were spot on! My filet was a bit tougher than other filets I've had in the past... it was difficult to cut into. I also wished there was more of the red wine sauce to balance the richness of all the accompanying flavors and textures. All in all, this spot was a special treat tucked away in Townsend and I'm glad I didn't have to drive too far for a well-crafted menu and food scene!

    I have been going here for a very long time. I experienced the best version of this restaurant when…read moreBecky was cooking and making 12/10 burgers. This place is still great, but it's not on the same level as it once was. Food: 4.5/5 I got the Monster Burger with Pepper Jack cheese and a side of French fries. The burger was cooked very well but could have used a bit more seasoning. The Pepper Jack cheese could have been a little spicier, but I understand that each brand has a different spice level. Today's fries were just good, but most of the time they are great. You will learn quickly that I am a French fry connoisseur, and I will always say that crinkle-cut fries are the best in the game. This place serves crinkle-cut fries, and most of the time they absolutely hit. ‍ Service: 5/5 I went around 11:20-ish on a Wednesday, and it was packed! It's great to see the business still doing well, but it did take some time to get my meal. However, it was worth the wait, and the service is fantastic. The staff works extremely hard, and they make the experience enjoyable even during busy hours. Atmosphere: 4/5 The restaurant is absolutely clean, and they take great pride in keeping it that way. I will say there isn't much table space, but that's due to the size of the building. I honestly wish they would move to a bigger location because they deserve even more business and additional staff to help support the incredible team they already have. Value: Cannot Judge I can't fully judge this category since my dad treated me to lunch and paid for it. That said, the portion sizes for the prices seem fair and fitting. Final Thoughts Like I said before, Becky's is not on the same level it once was, but I still love this place! It's always a pleasure being served by a great staff while chowing down on a good Monster Burger. If you're a burger fan, then you should absolutely make a trip to Becky's! FEAST Overall Rating: 4.5/5 Would I Go Back?: Absolutely!

    I so wanted to love this place. I went with a friend on a Sat. afternoon. Not crowded at all and…read morethe shop is adorable. The staff is very friendly. I ordered the Blackberry Smoke. I was fully expecting a mouth-watering combo of sweet, salty and savory. I did not taste any of the blackberry jam even though I could see it was on there. Smoke was the sandwich's primary flavor profile. A bit much for me. I think my biggest issue was the globs of fat that made their way into my mouth. It was a big turn off and I did not finish the 2nd half of my sandwich. My friend got the Ricky Ricardo (which would have been my 2nd choice). She could not bite through the tough meat. I do recommend you give this place a try though. I will definitely revisit and try a different sammy.

    I stopped by for some dinner tonight while attending the 3rd Thursday event. I got the Ricky…read moreRicardo, which is a variation of a Cuban sandwich. I also got a cinnamon roll to go. The sandwich was pretty good. I prefer a more classic tale with pork and ham versus deli ham and bacon but it was not bad at all. The shop and eating area is really cute. I like that the sandwiches are prepared when you order so you can customize anything if you want to. The cinnamon roll was hugely disappointing. The bottom portion was totally raw dough but the top that was fully cooked was way too dry. I love grilled cheese sandwiches and I liked that they sold cheese curds so I'd probably give this place another try. Service was also friendly, which is a plus.
