Gatlinburg restaurants

We are going to Gatlinburg in July and have a few places to eat (Greenbriar and Paula Deen’s restaurant) but have one night where we are undecided. We are eating a lot of southern/home cooking and want something maybe a bit different. Is there a good Mexican place? Any other place that is a must do?

Local Goat is the Goat. Not sure if it’s close to you. I think it’s in Pigeon Forge. It was so good we went twice on our trip. Good beer menu too.

Enjoy the pancakes. There’s a 3 story Mexican place that was good.

Awful awful food there. Awful. Paula deens maybe the worst.
Take the advice I did not: cook every one of your own meals

We were there last week and actually did hit the Shoneys, it was glorious. I'd recommend trying to eat at off-peak times, everything is super packed right now.

Agreed, but this is tough to do when trying to pack your days unless you bring some pans of stuff to reheat once you get there. Pigeon Forge is mainly chain restaurants, pancake joints, and ice cream shops. I wanted to try Local Goat but there were cars parked out into the street. We had passable burgers at Fuddruckers, and some mediocre tex-mex near Anakeesta. Wait times were so off the chart we finally broke down and bought frozen lasagna and stuff to make sandwiches.

Paula Deen's restaurant sucks. My favorite is Pancake Pantry. They have so many great sandwich and breakfast options, I could eat there for every meal.

New Orleans Sandwich Company is excellent. I forget the name of the Mexican restaurant across from the aquarium, but it’s not bad.

Not in Gatlinburg (about 30 mins away), but We enjoyed English Mountain Trout Farm. You catch 'em; they cook 'em.

Smoky Mountain Brewery (one in Gatlinburg on the park end and one in Pigeon Forge) has good food and alright beer.
Gatlingburg Brewing Company has really good pizza and better beer.
I don't know about any Mexican places.
If you want some good non-chain food off the strip, check out The Greenbrier Restaurant, Three Jimmy's, or The Rampant Lion.

We’ve done Delauders and Tennessee Jeds. Both were pretty solid lunch options. You can bring your beer into Delauders (there’s a good liquor/beer shop about a mile down the road with a generic sounding name).
I wanted to try Red oak bistro but we never made it there

No Way Jose’s is good. There is one by the aquarium and also one in pigeon forge by the Harley Davidson dealer.

I would recommend a drive over to wears valley and hit up Elvira's.

+1 on Elvira's and anywhere else out towards Townsend.

This is of no real help, but last time we went to Gatlinburg we cooked all meals in the cabin. Driving through Gatlinburg and seeing people lined down the street to eat pancakes at 10:30 AM, I felt we made the right choice.
We did eat lunch one day at Mama's Chicken Kitchen and it was quite delicious.

It's the best choice, that whole area is populated with restaurants that are at best decent chain restaurant quality. Most can be bested with a frozen Stouffers meal.
It really is a hellscape of chain food.
