Aunt Granny’s did not disappoint. The food was better than most restaurants I’ve been to and the service was spectacular. The fried chicken and Mac and cheese were our favorites. Big props to our amazing server Jamie!

This family style gem inside Dollywood Amusement Park is absolutely amazing. The food is delicious and fresh. The environment is clean and attractive. It's set up to be very old fashioned. They dress the part and make this experience well worth the trip.

Great atmosphere Pros Excellent Family style food Quality of food Quantity of food Customer service by all was top notch Cons Too bad there’s not a way to eat here without having to pay the cost of entering the park. Nothing negative during our visit

At Aunt Granny’s you select your meats and sides. All persons at the table must agree on the selections for this is all you can eat brought to your table by the wonderful wait person. All of the food was great. Our favorites are; catfish, pot roast, roasted potatoes and corn pudding. Our wait person Vicki was awesome and took really good care of us.

Best sit down option in Dollywood! This was an excellent meal to end a long wonderful day at Dollywood. Many of our group said it was their favorite part of Dollywood. We fed 10 on the pick 3 meats and 4 sides. The fried chicken and pot roast were our favorites. The catfish was good but we wished we tried the pork too. Mashed potatoes with gravy are a most! The fired cabbage is a treat as well as the corn pudding. We are foodies and were thrilled with the food here. The service was exceptional. Before a dish was even finished our server was asking what we wanted more of. The only con is how full you feel afterward. Absolutely a delight to eat here. You will not find a better meal in the park and not for the price either.

Please don't waste your money on this restaurant. After reading some of the reviews about this restaurant I decided to pay the expensive price of 24.95 a person to try it. Hoping it tasted as good as Hatfield and McCoy's home cooking. It definitely does not. They bring you some garlic rolls that have no flavor. My girls chicken was bloody. Everything else tasted right out of a can. The macaroni tasted heated up. It is definitely a big waste of money better off to go to a fast food restaurant.

The food was outstanding and the price was fair for the amount of food we had. The one negative was the fact they sat five tables in our servers area simultaneously which severely overloaded her especially given their service model. This caused the service to lag at one point, but the server was not to blame. We’d definitely go back, but hopefully not have the same service experience. As noted, everything was good, but the fried cabbage was especially noteworthy.

Great food and plenty of it. Our waiter was great and service was quick. Food is served family style and includes drink and dessert.

I have nothing but good to say about this restaurant. We had a wonderful meal served by a wonderful server, and it's impossible to leave this place hungry. Note that this is not a buffet, per se. That is, you don't walk through a line and select dishes, but rather are served family style from a robust menu. If you want more of any item, you simply ask for it. Highly recommend!

The food was good. The service was good and the drink refills were plentiful. The price was good I think at just under $25 for 3 meat choices and four sides, bread, and a desert. So why only 2 stars? Wastage!! So much of it. You can’t choose your portion size, it just arrives at your table. The two of us were presented with 3 fillets of catfish, 4 portions of fried chicken, three large herby chicken pieces, and very large dishes of macaroni cheese, green beans, red potatoes, a cheesy type dip, and a corn crumble. Oh and 12 pieces of cheesy bread. Then there were the deserts. It was enough to feed the 500. On every table, as people left, we saw food remained. It was the same at our table. It’s such a waste and needs to be reassessed. Sure, some folks will love the portions, but from what we saw … and ate … most find it far too much. Give people the option of how much to have, and price it accordingly. This was just a disgraceful waste of food.
