A nice little cafe in Cherokee North Carolina. It is off the main drive and we were lucky to find it. There was ample parking for the visit. It's a walk up to order Cafe. They brought the food to us at our table. And enjoyed the burgers and fries. They offer a variety of food items, and I'm sure the other items are just as pleasurable to eat. Definitely will return on next visit through the area. read more

This place was on our route all week to and from the KOA Holiday in Cherokee, and after cooking all week, we wanted to stop by and get a pizza. Nothing but teenagers running the place and socializing with each other. Our "garden salad" was fluffy lettuce (not sure what kind) some red onion, a couple cherry tomatoes and a sparse sprinkling of cheese. We asked for Honey Mustard, but received Ranch, went to get the correct dressing and was given "dipping sauce". Very hard to use as a dressing. The pizza was a "Supreme", NOT hot, no sauce (even though I asked for light sauce), and was not even crispy. Well undercooked. The KOA had mentioned Wize Guyz, but now they will not recommend them to the campers any more after the number of issues campers and staff have had over the past month. The employees can't recite what dressings are available and the pizza was undercooked. How hard is it to make pizza? read more

We eat here 1-2 times a week because it is so close to our home. The staff is very polite and friendly. But about every third time we order, the order is wrong. It has become aggravating. Most of what we have ordered from here has been good food. With the exception of our last order. Wow! It was Horrible!!! We ordered a pizza for the first time from here and for the last time. It was a BBQ chicken pizza. Hardly any BBQ flavor and barely any chicken. The crust was rubbery and difficult to chew. I could have bought a frozen pizza from the grocery store and not only would it have been considerably cheaper but would have tasted A LOT better. Also, ordered mozzarella sticks. Never again. They were microwaved, there was more cheese in the to go plate than in the cheese stick. Very disappointed in this order. I would have been ashamed as an owner and even the cook, to serve either of these items. read more

Hidden Gem. This place has great food at a reasonable price. We ordered the Patty Melt Burger and the OMG Burger with homemade chips. Both burgers came out looking amazing! I had the patty melt burger and it had a generous amount of onions on it and was ooy-gooy with cheese. The burger was a little more done than I like, but they do not ask burger temp. Overall a good tasting burger. The OMG burger is just that! Crazy amount of food!! The burger patties on this are also cooked over what we would usually eat, but still taste good. The homemade chips are addicting and you just can't stop eating them! I will definitely be back! I did not get the pizza, but man it looked and smelled good from the next table over. read more

Everything is fried: all out of a bag, a can, a box. Nothing fresh, nothing yummy. The oil on my Italian sub was actually rancid. Ok they did have fresh tomatoes: commercially grown sickly things so thinly sliced they were hardly visible. Our food was *terrible* and we paid $40 for two meals. read more

Very friendly family place. Home made potato chips excellent! Burgers ok, kind of dry.

Crazy value! Local vibes. Family spot. Beer available. Outdoor seating. Order at the front situation. The no-brainer go-to for a group who wants bar/ grille fare. Not a place to bring your health conscious or meat restricted friends. Overall suited our quick lunch needs with the pleasure of affordability and speed. read more

Great Food! We visited this little gem on our last trip to Cherokee. I'm so glad we gave it a try. As with many other small establishments, there is a shortage of employees. This did not change the level of customer service. The staff was still friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. This was my first visit, but it definitely won't be my last. I definitely recommend visiting this little gem next time you're in Cherokee. read more

Wize Guyz Grille - Bacon Cheeseburger and Onion Rings - American Near Me - Cherokee, North Carolina

Don't expect much from the food. But for the price, it's decent. The pastas were fine. The chicken in the alfredo was a bit dry. The meatballs in the spagetti was good but the sauce was sour. The garlic bread served with the pastas tasted weird from an old oily taste. Burgers were good. And the fish and chips were a little under seasoned. read more

Great Burgers! Outside dining near Deep Creek (Bryson City, NC area). Active tubing viewing!

Me and my 2 coworkers had 12 Garlic Parmesan chicken wings, extreme fries and sammiches; I had the chicken philly, and my coworkers ate a Ruben and a chicken Parmesan. All the food was great. Garlic wings were crispy and loaded with garlic sauce. Fries were crispy and loaded with cheese, ranch and bacon. Chicken philly had onions and peppers and chicken was well seasoned. read more

Great place to eat! Food was awesome! We will go back next time we are close to Cherokee

Stopped here on our way to Mingo Falls. My friend and I ordered two fish sandwiches, chicken wings with hot Buffalo sauce and pretzel bites. Everything was cooked to perfection. The pretzel bite were crisp on the outside, soft in the center and loaded with salt, which I love. The fish sandwiches had two good sized pieces of fish. I added extra tarter. Fish did need just a sprinkle of salt but other than that, it was delicious. We ordered the wings extra crispy and that they were! I missed getting a picture before they were half gone. We saw a pizza at another table and it looked like it had thin and crispy crust, so we'll definitely be back to try that. Staff was friendly, service was quick. read more

First timers. Both our burgers were absolutely delicious! Service people were beyond polite. Can't wait for Bryson City, NC location to open this fall. We'll be back again before that though. read more

Was nervous to stop at first but because of the great reviews we did. We got a 16" mushroom pizza and it was very good, reminded me of sabarros pizza. Was very good. Also tried the pretzel bites for only $2.99, they came with cheese dip. All very good, I would come again. read more

Wize Guyz Grille - American Near Me - Cherokee, North Carolina

In my opinion the worst pizza I've ever eaten. Then it smelled up my room all night. Amazing the service at the counter was awesome.

Food was great! Quick service. Wide variety. I had Philly cheese steak sandwich. Hubby had loaded fries.

Amazing food. I can tell they don't skimp on the quality of their beef. I'm always treated nicely when I go in there and I'm happy to see it is usually pretty busy. The only complaint I had was how condiment heavy my burgers are. read more

One of the best Pizzas I have had in a long time. Prices were good and the 18 inch pizza was huge. Place was full the whole time we were there. read more

Soooooo this spot was awesome simply put. So glad I trusted the Yelp reviews here. Even with COVID-19 still plaguing the nation, the service was GREAT. Was carry-out only but well worth it. A southern charm. The wings were good, tea was great, and fries good. Tasty. Fresh. All of that! Don't pass up this jewel, had a pretty extensive menu too. I have absolutely no complaints read more

Pretty decent little spot. Would recommend to somebody who needs a quick eat around the area.

Absolutely amazing the staff are so full of life and will definitely put a smile on your face. The food is amazing. I had the burger with egg. And let me tell you it was amazing.

I'll definitely tell everyone I know to stop in at the WIZE GUYZ GRILLE. 10/10. read more

After a day of hiking we ordered ahead on the way back to the casino. Tried the Pepperoni explosion and breadsticks and it was very good! Pizza Crust was tasty.

Food was great! Meatball sub was the best! People were very friendly! Definitely a great place to go!

Looking for a great burger in Cherokee, look no further, my husband and I recently spent a week in town and did a bit of carry out. We each ordered a burger, he had a double cheeseburger and I had the black and blu. Both were cooked perfectly and had a great taste, I had the onion rings and really enjoyed them, they were not overly breaded or greasy, my husband had fries and said they were just okay. We definitely recommend if you are in the area. read more

Best Wings in Cherokee, NC! I was here over the weekend (needed a break from the city and all the overwhelming things going on in the world) and I was craving some wings and pizza. I was so fortunate to find this cozy establishment in walking distance of my hotel. This was one of the few places open that has quality food. I had the pleasure of meeting Thomas. He was so attentive and courteous. He recommended the wings and they did NOT disappoint. I went with the 10 inch pizza and 6 piece wings. First off, the pizza was so delicious! Thin crust and a little burnt just the way I LOVE IT! My favorite however were the wings! Coming from ATLANTA, GA, where everyone proclaims to have the best wings, I had high expectations and they didn't let me down. The wings were fully grown, full of tender, juicy meat. They were fried to perfection. I was honestly impressed. My meal came to $16, including my drink. They had a pretty large menu including burgers, salads and pasta. The establish was clean and well kept and the staff was attentive and friendly. A memorable experience for sure. read more

For a quick and cheap bite this place is OK stop in town. Hamburger was a bit on the salty side but can't complain about portions and the staff was actually smiling and cheerful which seems to be the exception not the rule these days. read more

We've eaten at Wize Guyz several times and I've never had a single thing that wasn't delicious. We love the Chief Burger. It's really good with fries. My husband loves the hotdogs too. My favorite by far though is the MEATAZZA pizza! OMG it's so freaking good! The crust is New York style thin crust and the toppings are so fresh and tasty. I think it's the best pizza around. As an added bonus the last time we ordered the mozzarella sticks and they were delicious too. This restaurant has such a big variety of foods that everyone in your family will find something they like. The staff is very friendly also. It has a sports bar atmosphere without the bar. Lots of TVs with all the sports on. I highly recommend this place. read more

Excellent service and great food. We had the meat pizza and wings. The pizza was really good with plenty of toppings and a tasty thin crust. They know how to make a perfect pizza that's not all crust and has the right balance of cheese and toppings. Prices are very reasonable. read more

Excellent food nice and clean place. Locals eat here you know it's good. Prices are good. Enjoyed our food was a great stop in Cherokee

I really wanted to like this place. The staff was friendly and the food was out to our table quickly. We ordered spaghetti, wings/fries, and Boscoe sticks. The Boscoe sticks were good, and that was about it. The wings were way over cooked. I like crispy skin, but not crunchy meat (at times). The spaghetti had a very watery sauce, and lacked any real pizzazz. The bowl looked like white noodles as the watery sauce settled to the bottom. It might have been an off night, but we won't be returning. read more

Pleasantly surprised by the pizza here! We wanted a little bite to eat and a beer and there wasn't much open that wasn't a "family" (ie doesn't serve beer) restaurant or breakfast/cafe. This place is in a very touristy part of town that I am sure is nuts in season. We got a pepperoni pizza and a few beers. Their beer selection isn't great right now but I think that is because it is the off season. The pizza came out quick and is the super greasy kind with the non stringy cheese - if you eat enough pizza you know what I mean. The crust looked sketchy, like it was going to be like cardboard but was actually light and crispy and not tough at all! Will totally be back. read more

Have eaten there several times. Very good. Hamburgers, pizza, chicken strips. We always take our family and friends there. I recommend it to people who ask, where is a good place to eat in Cherokee. read more

Guacamole burger was great, served hot and fresh even right before closing. Good portions and great taste. Fast, friendly service, and clean dining environment. read more

We ordered take out because my husband said lines to sit down inside were crazy as he came by the restaurant. We ordered regular cheese burgers and fries with a large tea to eat out. Honestly, I was just hoping it would be better then the other fast food we had been eating. I had no expectations. WELL........, I was truly pleasantly surprised! The regular cheeseburger was amazing. The French fries were very delicious! read more

The food is absolutely delicious! They have a great menu with lots of variety. I ordered the Diablo burger with loaded fries (yum), my husband ordered the Big Chief burger with cheese, my son ordered the chicken strips, and my daughter ordered the stuffed pasta shells with marinara sauce. Everything tasted delicious! The only downfall was the amount of time it took to receive our order. We waited close to 45 min before our food came out. Had it not taken so long for the food to arrive I would give out 5 stars. But when you have young children that are only good for a 25-30 min wait, and you see other people that came in after you getting their food, it becomes stressful. read more
