    Wings, on the Wed. Special, 10 wings for $9.95.
    Phillip S.

    1st, love the view! We've eaten there twice and it was wing day. Wings are excellent and $9.95 each Wednesday. My wife and her friend had the fish on the Friday special and said it was very good. Also $9.95. it's refreshing in this day to find good food, good service at an affordable price. Will be back for their other specials!

    We have been here several times now! The name of the restaurant says it all! An absolute beautiful view of the golf course and the mountains. The food is fresh, not frozen hamburger or other meats. Great menu, daily specials and large variety. I highly recommend the brats on a pretzel bun! (Have them deep fried for a crunchy texture). Onion rings are amazing too. Service is wonderful, friendly staff and always a warm welcome! Negative is the walk through the hallway with tables, catering crap, condiments etc. so hopefully they read this and find a home for all of it. Not a good first impression.

    I randomly found this location on Yelp and decided to go after reading the reviews. It's easy to find and wow the views are amazing! We were sat right away and the servers were great and really honest about the menu and what was good versus what to skip. I got the Bahama mama drink and it was good I also ordered the trout, Caesar salad and mashed potatoes. Boyfriend got the house salad and chicken Alfredo. Both were very good and the Alfredo sauce was homemade and the boyfriend said very cheesy. My dinner was good too I got it with the herb crusted and squeezed some lemon on top and we were good to go! Honestly you can't beat the view, service, food or prices. This is not a super fancy place which I was worried about because we had been traveling all day and I was in yoga pants. If you're at all debating it I would say just go and you won't be disappointed!

    Two years ago my younger daughter had her wedding reception at Butternut. It was perfect. Two weeks ago my older daughter had her wedding reception there as well. It was FANTASTIC!! Ashley and Crystal wanted things as perfect as we wanted them. Our guests raved about the food (delicious coconut shrimp appetizer and the main course pasta , zucchini which was fabulous, and Caesar Salad)! Ashley discretely checked with me making sure all was good throughout the afternoon and worked tirelessly the evening prior as well (rehearsal bbq dinner and ALL DAY) assisting me as we set up and decorated, assuring me all was going to be perfect. And it was! The natural beauty around the venue is just breathtaking adding more beauty to those wedding photos! I'm sure your event here at The View/Butternut Golf Course will be as wonderful as ours was!

    We were in town for the weekend just visiting and decided to stop in here after reading good reviews. But unfortunately we didn't have a great experience. Yelp shows they are open until 7:30pm on Saturday. We got to the restaurant at about 6:15. Sat down, were handed menus and our drink orders were taken. A minute later the waitress brought back our drinks and asked if we were ready to order. We've never been here before so we were still browsing the menu, but when we tried to tell the waitress that...she made a face that suggested we couldn't take any longer and told us the kitchen is closing in about 5-10 minutes. It was only about 6:20ish at this time and we thought it was weird the kitchen would close so much earlier than the actual restaurant. But anyhow we rush through with ordering. This should've been our clue just to leave, but our waitress reassured us it was fine and to proceed with ordering. My mom had the fried clams. My niece had the kids grilled cheese and I had a Buffalo chicken wrap (comes fried, with lettuce, tomato and either blue cheese or ranch). I specifically asked the waitress for no tomatoes, and with ranch. We get our food, I see my wrap has tomatoes. I think, okay no problem, I'll just pick out the tomatoes. But then I take a bite and it has blue cheese instead of ranch. I really dislike blue cheese so I decided to tell the waitress. She takes it back. Then comes out a minute or two later and says that she's sorry, it's her fault for ringing it in wrong. I'm expecting her at this point to say they'll remake it. But instead she follows it up with...the kitchen is closed now, sorry. My mom asks if she plans on removing it from the tab then since they won't remake it. The lady behind the bar then comes up and says they'll remake it, but can only do so with grilled chicken. I should've just said don't worry about it, because I knew it would be put together in a rush. But I decided to take it with grilled chicken because I was hungry. Another mistake. She brought the new wrap and set it down down on the table without saying a word. The wrap itself was soggy (not even sure how, since it was thrown together right then) and the chicken just fell out of it because it was so loosely wrapped together. I only ate half of it (honestly probably less because half of the chicken fell out). My mom said her fried clams were also not good and tasted old. And my nieces grilled cheese had cheese that was barely melted. I've worked in the service industry in multiple restaurants and I find it really absurd that they didn't just offer to remake my wrap immediately. Whether it was the kitchen or the servers fault - they should've offered to remake it instead of immediately defaulting to, well sorry you can't eat anything because of OUR mistake and now the kitchen is closing up. We were still charged for the wrap which I'm indifferent about. They could've at least discounted the item since it wasn't what I actually wanted (being grilled), and I only ate half. But our server never came back after to check on us except to give us the check. But what really irked both my mom and me at the end of the dinner is that while my mom was pulling cash out to pay the tab and trying to figure out the tip, the waitress STOOD RIGHT OVER my moms shoulder and kept staring at her and how much she was tipping! I have never had a waitress just stand over me and watch while I pay the tab at the table and decide on a tip, and my mom definitely noticed. It was just so unbelievably inconsiderate and rude. Maybe this place is better during the earlier hours when they're not rushing to leave for the day (even though we still walked out before 7pm, and again, Yelp shows they close at 7:30), but we definitely won't be back to find out.

    Flat iron skillet with steamed veggies too. Eat here for the food, but more for the view.

    The View Grill lives up to its name with a gorgeous view! The seating is very scarce, but when we arrived, another party was finishing up so we didn't have to wait long. During nicer weather the deck would provide not only more seating, but an even better view, and while it was a cold evening that we had dinner there, we were gifted with the last bit of the winter light over the peaks and golf courses below. Best part of the evening was our server Peggi. (I hope I got her name right as I squinted at her nametag and she hadn't introduced herself when she seated us with what I can only describe as some of the best customer service that I've ever received at a restaurant.) She was thoughtful of my daughters and their needs, bringing them art supplies, chatting with them, and treating them as kindly as any other patron, ensuring that they also enjoyed their meals. I had the flat iron skillet with a side of steamed veggies and the onion rings. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the onion rings were to die for!! The two burgers that my daughters ordered were gigantic and also delicious. Parking was ample and the signs indicating what door to enter, and how to get upstairs to the restaurant were well-marked, as we weren't entirely sure where we were going when we pulled in. Prices were reasonable for the quality of food, but I'd recommend going both for the view (duh), and the service.

    Service was good. The view was beautiful but since they remodeled they no longer have outdoor dining. We ordered chicken Philly's sandwiches which were bland. The too soft bun wouldn't hold up and it needed to be eaten with a fork and knife. The chicken wasn't good.

    Local Goat in Pigeon Forge TN is awesome. You can tell by the parking lot that is always packed…read moreout - every day. Food is Fresh and prepared exactly as you request it. Never been disappointed in any of the dishes ordered. Love the fresh, hand-cut french fries and fried green tomatoes. That's the only place my husband goes for the best burger in town.

    Stopped in pigeon Forge to see the smoky mountains for two days while trekking to Clarksville. I…read morehave never been to the area so I was blown away. It was like a little kid Las Vegas! They literally have every fast food and chain dining experience on one block, but I didn't know that at the time but I'm tired of road trip Food so wanted to sit down for a good meal! Pulling into the parking lot and I was overwhelmed because it was huge and very crowded! We go to the desk and they tell us 25 minutes. This place was huge and very accommodating, they were getting people to their tables fast! We noticed two empty seats at the bar, so we opted to take them and had the pleasure of being served by Robert. He was attentive, made sure our waters were always full. He gave recommendations on his favorite dishes and was all around a great bartender! The guy working the other end of the bar was equally as professional. The ambience is a dark cool vibe, little trendy but people were dressed pretty casually! Answer the most important thing...The food! For an app, we got the beer, cheese fondue that came with apples, bread and pretzels. The beer cheese had a little bit of ooomph to it, which was refreshing because usually I'm not a big mustard person. The pretzel bites were incredible crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The apples were fresh all around the appetizer for 3 to 4 people so we took extra home. I ordered the 10 ounce sirloin cooked, medium with the web sweet potatoes and a side Caesar salad for a three dollar charge which ended up being a full-size salad! It was super fresh and gigantic for a side salad. The steak was cooked perfectly, in the middle with an insane sear. Their house, butter that they put on it truly elevated the flavor profile. I tried the sweet potatoes mashed and they were enjoyable, but I do not enjoy a sweet side with my food so I knew I was going to donate them to my husband and he said they were incredible, the flavor was definitely there just not my cup of tea, but I knew that from the beginning . He got the Caesar salad with grilled chicken! It had so much flavor and tastes incredible but yet melted in your mouth it was the most tender chicken I've ever had in my life, and the flavor was all there! Not even the slightest bit of any kind of dryness. One of the best bites of chicken I've ever had.! He ordered the bison meatloaf to go, and that comes with caramelized mashed potatoes and fried onion straws.... It smells incredible and I will update when we try it . * UPDATE: best meatloaf ever!!! Based on the quality/ experience on a very busy night- everything was phenomenal and I will return. Service 10/5 Food 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Value 5/5
