    Philly Cheese Steak with Onions and Peppers
    Don C.

    My wife and I were heading to the Dragon and discovered this place! We had a great visit with the new owners and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch....Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich and Jalapeno Pulled Pork Nachos! We HIGHLY recommend you try them out...You'll love it! They're now on our "We Gotta' Go Back!" List..... Also, most importantly: The Dragon Pitt Inn and BBQ is under NEW OWNERSHIP since June of 2022 and these folks REALLY care about good food and quality service!

    Very dirty and sticky ketchup bottle

    The food wasn't bad but I can get just as good if not a better burger from a Waffle House. I got a burger fries and a bottle of water and it cost me $21 there isn't table service, and it's like eating at a fast food restaurant the tables were all dirty. I personally wouldn't recommend eating here I was very displeased

    Maybe it was the 107 degree heat, or maybe it was my growling stomach, but this place hit the spot for me and I had one of the best simple tastiest pulled pork sandwiches ever. Very tasty sauce, and nicely toasted bun. I ate mine with a fork and used the top bun to slop up sauce with... so yummy. They had even shut down the kitchen minutes before we arrived but reopened just for us. That's service. Motorcycle parking. A must stop on the dragon route.

    Visited on June 15, 2014 after spending several days in backcountry of GSMNP. Food was delicious. Guys in our party either had the Dragon Burger or the pulled pork, everyone raved. Owners were the definition of pleasantness and hospitality. Would have given 5 stars if fries serving had been more generous, but they were delicious fat crinkle cuts--mmmmm. Only wish they could have served cold beer with their delicious food. Will eat here again next time I'm in the area.

    Great food and friendly service right off the Tail of the Dragon on US 129. I was there during the day - but it seems like it would be a great place to grab a drink or get a room for the weekend.

    I have a bone to pick with Smok N Bonz. I really loved the waitresses as they were friendly and…read moreattentive. However I just did not like the food. I've been twice now and have had the St. Louis Ribs, Baby Back Ribs, brisket, and pulled chicken. The ribs had no flavor, had pieces of gristle or cartilage in the meat, and had a boiled taste. We asked the server if they seasoned the meat and she was surprised that we didn't taste anything. The chicken was better. Dry of course but had that clear smoky flavor I was hoping everything would have. The brisket was probably the worst brisket I've ever had. While it looked okay, it was bland and flavorless and was totally dry while at the same time pooling in grease (or the water it must have been boiled in). See photo. The sides were all fine. Fried okra, Mac and cheese, and slaw. And I loved the table side barbecue sauce! But even a bath of that couldn't save the meat. I really want to return to support the staff at Smok N Bonz, but I just can't keep going to a barbecue place where I can't eat the meat.

    I've been here multiple times and have NEVER been disappointed. The food is great and so is the…read morestaff! The restaurant is just a little local bbq joint and it has that mom and pop atmosphere and it's great! :)

    Best BBQ I've ever had!! Had it for the first time the other week and we've been back three times…read more The ribs are incredible.

    This is the best barbecue that we have found for the area; but I'm from Texas, and in my opinion,…read moreit's just different. That said, their chicken wing rub was very sweet and I was expecting a spicy rub. The pork ribs were good. The bologna tasted like hotdogs honestly. The sourdough bread wasn't really sour, it just tasted like regular white bread. Of the sauces, our favorites were Tennessee Red and Spicy mixed together; and we found that by mixing them together, it tasted closer to what we were used to. They still had a bit of an aftertaste that we couldn't quite place. I loved their cute store and their service was amazing! I told them about my egg allergy while ordering and was promised everything would be egg free. We had gotten the bacon burger with sauce that looked very similar to thousand island dressing, and the restaurant made it right by making us a brand new one, while profusely apologizing. We understand that there may be a little bit of cross-contamination, but the dressing on the burger was more than cross-contamination. The lady who took our order told us there was nothing on the burger except for burger, bacon and cheese, and then asked if I wanted lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles on the side. I asked specifically about the condiments and she said they don't put any condiments on their burgers. The bathrooms and store overall were very clean and very well kept. It felt like good small town America. If it weren't for the egg allergy sauce mixup, they would've gotten four stars.

    We spent our anniversary at BlackBerry Farm and had the most wonderful time. Farm to table dishes…read morefor all three meals is something I could get used to. The beautiful fresh produce complimented the expertly cooked and seasoned proteins. There wasn't a single thing we ate that we didn't enjoy. In between meals, we made sure to stay active to earn our appetite. The property offers access to great trails in the Smokies which we took advantage of as well as a lovely outdoor pool with a view. The room itself was pleasant as well. It was hard to leave the luxurious king bed every morning. The heated floors in the bathroom and the comfy sitting area made our Holly Springs cottage suite the perfect home base. We were also assigned our own golf cart to get around the property (although we chose to walk mostly to take in the views). Service was top notch and the staff were wonderful. Every evening they surprised us with a little treat for our anniversary which was very thoughtful. We couldn't have asked for a better stay!

We decided to take the plunge and we are so happy we did. It's a 3 night minimum and frankly a great idea to take it all in. We enjoyed the following activities ; Fly Fishing, wine tasting , the spa , a farm tour , & tomato tasting. All were spectacular and unique to themselves. The culinary experience is nothing short of a Michelin experience for dinner. The price is all inclusive , sans your alcohol. The service is world class and the staff makes you feel so welcome. Whether it's a special occasion or a bucket list item , I would say it's a must in your lifetime !! Side note- We thought this would be a one and done. However, the level of experience and ability to unplug was extremely therapeutic. Hope you enjoy the review by LIKING it and sharing feedback :).
