    Jumbo Fried Shrimp
    Maya T.

    This place instantly has the vibes of like any basic pub just cozy. The service was great and the food was great. I got just basic jumbo shrimp and a backed potato. I'll tell you what, he asked me if I wanted extra butter and WHOOW who could POSSIBLY take MORE butter than what was given because that potato was FULL with butter. The shrimp was delicious! My mother got the black bean burger and it was just as good. A friend that her mashed potatoes were a little cold but that's alright cause she still ate it haha Keep it up Timberwood!

    I was staying at the Margaritaville Island Hotel and was walking around and decided to try this place out. While coming in, this Hispanic female hostess standing at the front table appeared to have some attitude when my better half asked her for a booth. She definitely needs to brush up on her customer service skills. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful. What a sigh of relief after the rude hostess. I ordered the Bison burger with loaded baked potato. The burger was a bit dry but very flavorful. It had very good seasoning and flavor on it. The loaded baked potato wasn't bad as well. The sweet tea was very good and I think I drank like a ton. I definitely would like to come back and try some different food next time.

    The ambiance setting is perfect for a restaurant close to the Smoky Mts. It reflects the woody area. The wings were tender a juicy with just the right type of bbq sauce. The beer was ice cold and refreshing for the hot day. Service was relatively quick. So if your at the The Island in Pigeon Forge Tn. stop in for some good food.

    Kids cheeseburger

    First, this place was freezing when we walked in. Our server took a minute to get our drinks but she was on point the rest of our time here. Potato cracklins were a huge disappointment. They were cold and lacked any flavor that I was hoping for. Potato soup was runny, not very cheesy and way over peppered. Now I will say I had just had the best bowl of potato soups at Longhorn the other day so I don't know if this place stood a chance but, I can make better soup. My daughter loved the Mac and cheese. Creamy and rich....all the things she loves. And my youngest said her cheeseburger was all she hoped for despite telling me she wasn't hungry when we got there.

    Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with Fries

    We tried this place the last time we were in Tennessee and staying at Margaritaville on the Island. We remembered it was a ton of food, good food, and good service, and this time was no different! My husband and toddler had chicken tenders, fries, macaroni and cheese, and I had the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with fries. It was so good! The service was quick and our server was friendly. It was a lot of food again and none of us finished everything. The Buffalo chicken sandwich is hot, so if you're not into hot Buffalo sauce, steer away. The inside of this place is very woodsy and outdoorsy, while being open, but cozy. It's a very welcoming place. We will make this a permanent spot to stop from now on during our visits!

    We enjoyed this so much for lunch a couple days later we came back again for dinner. Chicken pot pie, burgers, steak all very good. They also have a nice beer selection and even with a group of 10 plus our server was very attentive.

    Dutch Oven Chicken Pot Pie
    Lyssa C.

    Out exploring and was pleasantly surprised how great our experience was in a tourist area. We sat at the bar and were greeted immediately. Server recommended the pot pie and it did not disappoint. It was creamy and delicious. My husband enjoyed his plate and I tried a bite of his beans and they were great. There were buzzers cleaning tables immediately and everything was clean and everyone was friendly. Would go back again.

    Trapper Jack's Handcut Sirloin* With a loaded Baked Potato Macaroni and Cheese
    Jaime S.

    Got seated right away on a Thursday evening. Our waitress was friendly but she was kinda pushy about getting us to order quickly although they wasn't really busy. We got the potato crackins for our appetizer. Kinda disappointed with the portion size and the amount of queso, sour cream and onions that were supposed to be on them. Anyway they were good. I had the fried bologna sandwich with steamed broccoli and it was really good! I was worried about the mustard but I didn't even see any mustard on it and it had just a taste of mayo on it. Broccoli was just ok. Boyfriend had a sirloin with a loaded baked potato and Mac and Cheese! I got a bite and it all was really good! Has a fun laidback country vibe with mining , fishing and stuffed wildlife around. They have an arcade in the back as well!

    Best Burger I've had in a while. We came here late in the evening on a Sunday night. It was not busy got seated right away. Service: Excellent service from the hostess to the waitress Yulia. She was attentive and had patience with us. Especially since we had a toddler. She checked on us throughout the meal. Ambiance: clean and great decor. We loved the bear at the entrance. We also liked how close we sat next to the Arcade City, the kids can go over there while waiting on food. Food: The food was better than expected. Mash potatoes: unique that peel was included but mashed Kids corn dog: our picky eater devoured it Mac and cheese burger: Amazing, well cooked and flavorful. Perfect amount of Mac. Mac and cheese: perfect home style taste Smokey Burger: pretty good Bathrooms: clean and well maintained Drinks: S'mores drink: tasty highly recommend Fruit punch: wouldn't recommend Great restaurant and bar

    My husband and I visited Timberwood Grill when visiting the Island in Pigeon Forge in April, 2025. Food (4/5). As usual, my husband and I split our entrees. We got a Strawberry Chicken Salad ($16.99), described as a bourbon-glazed grilled chicken breast sliced thin and served over fresh farmers market greens with sliced strawberries, caramelized pecans, and blue cheese crumbles. While it's usually served with a vinaigrette, we substituted a blue cheese dressing, served on the side. Our rating for the salad is 3/5. While the ingredients tasted fresh, the chicken pieces were cut too thick and we couldn't taste the glaze at all. In addition, the strawberry and blue cheese toppings were sparse. The size of the salad was also quite small given the price point. Our second entree was the Steakhouse Burger ($15.99), served with one side. The burger featured a half-pound hamburger patty, topped with Swiss and Pepper Jack cheeses, sautéed mushrooms, applewood bacon, A1 sauce, and onion straws. We ordered macaroni and cheese as the side. Our rating for the Steakhouse Burger is 4/5. We enjoyed the burger and the flavor combinations. The issue was that we specified that we wanted the burger cooked well-done, but the center of the burger that we received was still quite pink. We didn't send it back because it was still edible, but not at our preferred doneness. The macaroni-and-cheese was excellent (5/5), hot and gooey, melt-in-your-mouth. Ambiance. (3/5). This is a large and hectic restaurant with a lot of activity. Patrons being seated. Servers passing back and forth with food and drinks on trays. Etc. The restrooms are also too small for the size of the restaurant. A line formed in the ladies room. Service (4/5). Our waitress got the job done. She was efficient in bringing our menus, bringing our food and waters, etc. One small pet peeve -- she brought our check long before we were finished eating. Value (3/5). The entrees were a bit expensive, but in line with prices in this touristy area. Also, the menu is posted outside of the restaurant WITHOUT prices! We did check on-line before entering so there were no surprises.

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

I'd wanted to stop several times before, but it's such a small restaurant that we never had enough time to wait. Today we finally got the chance to try it. The restaurant is pretty small with only about six tables. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted and told the wait would be around 30 minutes. We weren't in a hurry, so we decided to stay. They gave us a pager, and we sat at one of the picnic tables outside while we waited. It actually only took about 10 to 15 minutes before our table was ready, which was a nice surprise. I usually look at the menu ahead of time, but I didn't this visit. I was expecting a few more breakfast options, but I ordered the French toast since it's one of my favorites. My brother ordered the pancakes with strawberries and bananas, and we both got a side of bacon. Our food came out pretty quickly. They brought my French toast and our bacon first and let us know the pancakes would be out in just a minute. When they arrived, we were both shocked by the size. Those pancakes were huge! Everything was very good, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the bacon, but my brother actually loved it. That's just one of those things where everyone's tastes are different. Whenever I can, I like supporting locally owned restaurants instead of chain restaurants, so I was glad we finally stopped in. I also appreciated the atmosphere. They had Christian music playing and scripture displayed throughout the restaurant. My faith is important to me, so I enjoyed that touch. It wasn't overbearing or pushed on anyone. It simply added to the welcoming atmosphere.

Oh, I hate limp, doggy fries, but these were super crispy just like I like 'em...so extra points for that small detail. I usually comment on the wheelchair accessibility of places I review. The FBT wasn't huge, and one might have a bit of difficulty navigating. BUT, the hostess was shap as a tack and seated us in a nice nook where the chair fit with no problem. So I loved that, naturally. I have had some try to seat me in an area where no wheelchair could fit. That was appreciated. Speaking of sharp staff, our server, Brianna, was just super friendly from the get-go, and made us feel right at home. Our order was out to us in a jiff. I recommend highly. I may have to go back for a t-shirt . ( Oh, and check out the homemade ice cream place next door.). Incidentally, as we were leaving to walk back to our hotel, a fierce storm blew up sending us to take shelter under the portico of the near-by LeCinte Center. So...a romantic little mini adventure.
