What User likes about Shoney's Gatlinburg:
When I walked in, I felt a bit out of place as many heads turned in my direction. However, the food was fantastic, and the service was incredibly friendly. I'm definitely planning to return. They offer a choice between a buffet and freshly prepared dishes. I opted for the buffet, which was priced at $13.00. View all feedback.

What User doesn't like about Shoney's Gatlinburg:
Our waitress was excellent, but the buffet selection was just mediocre. The air conditioning was dripping on my husband's head, which was quite uncomfortable. Overall, it definitely didn’t justify the $43 we spent. There's room for improvement. View all feedback.

Everything was good and satisfying. The waitress was excellent, and we didn't have to wait for a table. It met all of our expectations.

Me and my husband went to Shoneys on Saturday morning November 25 2023. We were amazed by the staff how they had everything under control on such a busy morning...

The food was excellent, but I don't think it was worth $40. I get that it's Gatlinburg, but charging $14 for each dish and $4 for drinks seems a bit excessive.

The breakfast buffet here is unbeatable. The creamy grits and fluffy eggs are fantastic, while the biscuits are decent and the bacon is cooked to perfection. Th...
