Featured Restaurant
Park Grill Steakhouse
Park Grill Steakhouse
Classic flavors of Southern Appalachia while dining in rustic mountain lodge.
1110 Parkway 436.2300 www.parkgrillgatlinburg.com Hours: Lunch 1130AM daily &
Dinner 5PM Sun. - Fri. & 430PM Sat.
The Park Grill put a lot of thorough, planning and effort in the building. The stonework throughout the restaurant came from old rock fences in the Cosby area, located approximately 30 miles east of Gatlinburg. The painstaking detail we put into building our rustic mountain lodge shows throughout the exterior and interior alike.
The Park Grill puts even more effort in their food. They serve the finest, freshest cuts of beef, pork, fish, and chicken and all entrées include their bountiful salad bar overflowing with fresh vegetables, cheeses, fruits, dressings made from scratch, and much more.
The Park Grill has a great wine selection with flavors ranging from international delights such as Australia’s Penfolds to the award-winning Biltmore Estate collection.
Afterwards be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth with a delectable homemade dessert.

The Gatlinburg Inn certainly has a rich and intriguing past. It boasts a long list of past interesting visitors, like President Herbert Hoover, Dinah Shore, J. C. Penny, Liberace & First Lady Bird Johnson. The Gatlinburg Inn was built in 1937 by R. L. Maples, Sr. & his wife Wilma when the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was still in its infancy.
