My husband and I make this part of our annual Gatlinburg trip. The wait in October is often long, but it is worth every minute! The Prosperity steak and spicy macaroni and cheese with spinach are two of our favorites. Our two year old likes the fresh bread. We are making a second trip from Nashville this year and are looking forward to eating here! We have our picture taken each year in front of the fireplace. If there was a Cherokee Grill in Nashville we would eat there all the time!

Advertised as Gatlinburg's Great Steakhouse. Comfortable casual atmosphere specializing in wood-grilled shrimp $15.95, fresh mountain trout $14.95, ribs $12.95, catfish $12.95. Wanting something light we ordered Asian Grilled Salad, sliced, grilled Asian chicken tossed with a Kung Pao peanut sauce and warm poppy seed dressing $9.75 with selection of homemade dressing. Served with slice of garlic cheese toast. It is so good you'll ask for seconds. Also good was the black & white bean chili. Unique side dishes such as baked macaroni & spinach with spicy cheese & Nev's potatoes. Available are great Burgers and steaks as well as beer and wine.

While waiting for our dinner we had a good view from our window seat of some local gals in square dance clothes, crinolines and all doing clogging for the crowd of pedestrians walking by on main street. For those of you unaware, it's tap dancing, Appalachian style.

Homey atmosphere and friendly help make for a pleasant evening.

I tried to find a romantic setting for my husband and I to eat, since it was our anniversary. I recommend sitting by the fireplace. Our waiter was very friendly, and we got our food rather fast.

If you want really good seafood or steak, Cherokee Grill will not disappoint you. The menu includes barbeque chicken and ribs, but the steaks are the house specialty, with the seafood close behind. Excellent sides, such as blue cheese grits or baked macaroni and spinach with spicy cheese, complement the entrees very well. A children's menu is available, too.

The atmosphere is large and open, with much of the front wall being glass.

It’s in the same restaurant family as the Smoky Mountain Brewery across the street and several of the local beers are available from the bar.

Our family had left for home, leaving my husband and me in Gatlinburg for few days to rest and unwind. What a great place to begin our intimate little time together. This was our first trip to Cherokee Grill, but will certainly not be our last. It was a great place for a quiet dinner with outstanding food.

My husband had the ribeye, and I had their "Prosperity Steak," which they claim to be their most popular steak. Both entrees were immediately declared delicious by both of us. My steak was served with a Worcestershire butter that certainly added to the steak's great flavor, and both steaks were cooked to perfection as requested. Our server suggested the Cheddar dressing for our house salad, and we were not disappointed at all. The salad and cheese dressing were great, especially with the bacon that was on the salad.

There is a large fireplace in the dining area that helps one to unwind, and the restaurant is right on the Parkway, so you can browse the many shops and "walk your dinner off" if you desire. You can go across the street and ride the Aerial Tramway if adventure is your goal, or you can choose the Baskin-Robbins across the street if satisfying your ice cream cravings are part of your indulgences. Either way you choose, dinner at Cherokee Grill is a great way to start or end your evening in Gatlinburg on the Parkway.
