We only visited once, when on a short vacation trip in the area. It is only a small trailer by the road with a few picnic tables around it, and apparently the five star rating is not only mine or other reviewers' but everybody's. The waiting line was long,the service took some time since everything was being cooked to order, and finding a table was out of the question, sharing onewas the solution. They are only doing burgers, but they're doing them good. Far beyond any fast food place you may think of,plus friendly prices.

Surprisingly good food. Tiny little building between a road and a river and the burger takes about 15 minutes to get, but considering I spent that time waiting outside in cool weather watching the water go by, not exactly a bad thing. The burger wasREALLY good as was the onion rings. Prices are fair.

The bacon cheeseburger is the best burger I’ve ever had!! This place is amazing and worth it!! The food is made to order so you do have to wait a few minutes but it’s so worth it!! The chili cheese fries are also good and the onion rings are top tier!! Worth the stop I promise!!!

Stopped here for lunch while staying in the mountains about an hour away. They claim to have to best burgers in town but they were the best burgers and food we have had in the entire smokies. Wonderful people and even more wonderful food. Cannot recommend this location enough. It makes it even better that such good food comes from people on the reservation and the earnings go back into the community.
