Restaurants near Tsali Recreation Area

So I go to pigeon Forge in Gatlinburg quite a bit and other than the normal staple restaurants that serve the same old, same old, it’s nice to have a restaurant that serves better tasting better prepared better seasoned food and actually have drinks that people know how to make that aren’t beer, wine, and Moscow Mules. You can get stuff really good to eat here. It’s so much worth it. You’ll enjoy it.

One of the very best dining experiences offered in Western North Carolina in the casino environment, but you really feel like you’re in an Italian dining Café and total attention is given to you very individualized exceptionally good food and great wines. I’ve been going to the brio now for some 15 years. I love it.

It really is the best place in gatlinburg. Always good and consistent. Some lighting above booths are harsh and too bright though. Otherwise perfect.

We arrived 10 minutes before our reservation and notified the desk. It was no more than three minutes when they called my name. They sat us in a booth, which my husband prefers. That was a plus, and the waitress, Taylor, came quickly to get our drink orders and appetizers. When she returned, we had not decided on our main course, so she assured us that it was fine; she’d check back. As soon as we laid the menus down, she was back. The orders were placed; I ordered the crusted sea bass, asparagus; he ordered, the stuffed chicken and asparagus. Taylor asked if we wanted to place one instead of two since it was a family portion. We really appreciated that bit of information. Both dishes were cooked to perfection and very tasty. The asparagus was awesome! Portions are ample to eat. Hubby was able to bring some back to the room. The Pepsi product was fresh and did not water down while waiting for dinner or throughout. WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!!

We eat here each time we visit Harrahs and usually go multiple nights for dinner. The menu is excellent and servings are enough that we split the full rack ribs. Guy’s ribs were perfect tonight—meat fell off bone and was moist and meaty ribs. Delicious every time.
