Was looking to grab a bite to eat close to our hotel. The bartenders were friendly that is about it. Wings were terrible. Hardly any sauce on them and burned to a crisp. Tasted like licking a dirty grill. Drinks didn’t have much flavor. Music was not what one would expect in a Margaritaville atmosphere. Some kind of heavy metal, grunge music. Was not relaxing. Would not recommend.

Great drinks and great service!

Man what great experience! Food was fresh and very delicious! Highly recommend anyone to stop in and get the cheesesteak, pretzel bites and beer cheese ??

Great drinks, tasty food!

We went twice during our stay in GATLINBURG. This 4-5 star review is based on our experience the first time, not the second time. The first time we had a great bartender wait on us (morning of 5/30) he allowed us each to sample one drink before ordering and we all ordered those exact daiquiris. He told us about saving the cup to bring it back for a discount next time and after some coaxing by him, we agreed and took them with us. Great experience! We carried them around the rest of that day and then all day the following day bc we were going to Anakeesta anyway and could pop by afterwards for our discounted drink! Yay! The second time was just a “fine” experience, just kinda blah. We got our refills in our red cups but the new bartender said he was not allowed to let us sample any daiquiris so we all just got the same thing we had the day before which was disappointing bc we all anticipated being able to get a different daiquiri that second time. The drink was great - the second day service was just blah, we felt pretty ignored other than the initial contact to get the drink refilled and then paying the bill. LOVED day 1 experience, day 2 was okay.

Went for drinks but also got the cheeseburger sticks that were quite delicious as well!Update 4/14/22: cocktails have more alcohol than the margaritas it feels like...and the garlic parm wings with blue cheese were pretty good!

Not even kidding the best meal we had while in town!!!! Cheeseburger egg roll appetizer was AWESOME and the spicy patty melt was soooooo good!!! Very good daiquiris!!! Def get the extra shot ☺️

Me and my husband went here on March 26 . They had a sign when you walk in that says wait to be seated we waited a long time and we’re never seated . We just wanted to sit at the bar so when 2 people got up we sat down where they were . Lucky for us they didn’t leave the spot nasty.

The bartender was really nice! Those daiquiris are really cold and take a while to melt down. You can’t leave with them so he prepared to hang out for a while. When I really needed to leave, the bartender poured some extra liquor in my daiquiri to help it melt. This was appreciated for multiple reasons :) The food was good too!

Amazing tropical atmosphere and awesome staff. Food was amazing and drinks were refreshing. Worth the price.
