Restaurants near Tellico Ranger Station

Connors is our favorite restaurant in our area. The prime rib is better than any other we have had. The service is always great. I had the shrimp and grits today and it was very good. I also recommend the lobster bisque. Be sure and make reservations.

We enjoyed a nice dinner in a back corner booth with another couple. All of our orders were very good. LOVE the warm bread served with honey butter!! Server was attentive And a nice job, especially since it was a very busy Saturday night. Always a good choice to dine at!

Went here for a date night. They had an incredible special with a 24 oz porterhouse for two, it was the most delicious and well thought out meal that either of us have had in years. Everything from the service to the food to the drinks to the ambiance was incredible. I could not recommend it highly enough. Chris was our waiter, and he was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole night!

We went to Dancing Bear last evening to celebrate my husband's 81st trip around the sun! It is our go-to spot for all special occasions and when we just want to give ourselves a treat. Also, it is always the dining venue requested by family and friends who visit us in East TN. We had fried gulf oysters for our appetizer. They were excellent as was my entree of trout with grits and my husband's brined pork chop. Their staff is welcoming and personable - attentive without hovering. We had the added treat of being seated near the fireplace which was most welcome on a bitterly cold night. We love everything about the Dancing Bear - location, ambiance, service and especially the food. Not only do we love it but so does everyone we have ever treated to a meal there.

The waitress was incredibly attentive, the bartender was friendly and crafted amazing drinks, and the food was absolutely delightful.
