Staying in a cabin for an anniversary, a weekend for two or a big celebration? These are the places we send our guests for a nicer dinner: steakhouses with a creek-side table or a mountain-lodge feel, a Brazilian churrascaria, fresh seafood, and one of the best-loved tables above Gatlinburg. Most are in Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg, and reservations are a good idea at several of them.
Considered by many to be the best restaurant in Gatlinburg, The Greenbrier serves excellent elevated food in a modern rustic setting above Gatlinburg. They also have a really wide drinks menu. Great place for a special occasion. Do call for reservations ahead of time.
This restaurant is an experience! Great salad bar, excellent service, and tasty, unlimited food. Brazilian meats include sirloin, sausage, teriyaki chicken, spare ribs, and more! Open on many holidays, including Thanksgiving!
Wonderful steak, great salad bar, and scrumptious spinach mac ’n cheese. Upscale mountain lodge atmosphere. Call for reservations. Open Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day.
Try their aged steak, hand-cut and seasoned in house, then grilled over an oak fire. They grind their own burgers, make all of their own soups, sauces & gravies, as well as hand-bread and cook their mozzarella sticks. They serve rolls with really good sweet butter. Try their stuffed mushrooms too! Call for reservations.
