DO NOT RECOMMEND read more

The atmosphere was nice, all servers were wearing a mask and were pleasant. The food was okay. I would not be coming back. We ordered the ribeyes and they were under seasoned and had a lot of fat and cartilage. My husband ordered the smoky bear burger. He thought it was an okay burger. French fries were really good. Other than that we also had the chicken wings (which were slightly undercooked) and the artichoke dip which was not bad. Deserts: Amazing! Both deserts were good. read more

Visited for the first time on 30 Dec 2023 around 5:30 pm Eastern, and wound up sitting at the bar. There was a little bit of a wait for a table, but the bar was wide open. "Gloria" was our waitress/bartender and was great; as in I'd sit at the bar again if she was working great. She handled the guests at the bar, and the wait staff coming to her for drinks like she was conducting an orchestra. Food was good, portions were healthy, came out in a very reasonable time frame with a full restaurant; and all of the staff were friendly and attentive, while not being overly intrusive. Definitely worth revisiting! read more

Food, Service, and atmosphere all five star with cheaper prices than most of your chain steak restaurants.

We had a wonderful experience at Holston's on Saturday March 2, 2024 around 2 p. We were seated immediately and the dining rooms appeared to be 90% filled. I noticed a few minutes later there was a couple of people waiting to be seated. The food was great and everyone in our group of four commented on how tasting it was. We started with fried pickle chips. There was plenty for us. I ordered the Ruben and homemade potato chips. The sandwich was portioned well and the chips were plentiful. My wife ordered a salad and chips spinach/ artichoke dip, which were enough for two. She ended up taking a little of each home. The others in the group got a hamburger and chicken. There were no complaints from anyone in our group. Our server was friendly and quickly refilled drinks. Meal prices were reasonable. The dining room atmosphere was pleasant. I highly recommend Holsten's if you are in the area. I would highly recommend read more

Food wasn't bad, but the server was rude. Our water glasses were literally gritty on the outside and the server tried to talk down to my wife (poor move) about how "that's just the way they come out of the dishwasher". My wife then asked if the plates would be that way. We got served on aluminum trays. Looking through all the pics on yelp, I didn't see another tray. Maybe I'm reading into it, I don't know. But the server experience was terrible. The baked Mac n cheese is just velveeta. Skip if you like good Mac n cheese. read more

Our waitress was great. Ask for Ivory but the food was terrible and basic. My ribs were inedible which is something I didn't realize until I got home. They were so dry and tough I just gave up and threw them away. I couldn't even pull the meat apart at all with my hands. Just terrible read more

Order got lost in the kitchen, waited over 45 minutes for order. Order had allergies and was assured it would accommodated yet after order came out waitress finds out they did use butter. Steak came out cold. read more

This may be the first or second time I ever gave a review. They seem not to care because they just survive off tourists which we are and will never be back. This was one of the worse meals and experiences we have ever had. The tomato goat cheese soup was oily, how? The crab cakes were disgusting, I had brisket and ribs, got nothing but the cap of the brisket so nothing but fat, no meat. ribs--could not get the meat off the bone but the outside was nice and hard and dry. We each had a crab cake and only took a bit but when plates were cleared full of food the server never asked if it was ok, really? 50% of the ribs were left but no concern. I guess the servers are afraid to ask how your food is because they know the answer. We did not complain and left, again we are not from here and won't be back in the area so this review is not in hopes of compensation but to save the next tourist from a horrible meal. read more

Loved our first time here! It's just off the main thoroughfare as you are coming into Sevierville from interstate 81. We had a party of 7, on a Friday night at 6. The place was packed but we didn't wait for more than 5 minutes. It's a big space inside and they can handle larger parties of people as well. Our table has some picky eaters in it as well as teenagers and kids but everyone found something really good to eat. My dad and I both ordered the open faced roast beef which was on Texas toast with mashed potatoes, gravy and these somewhat salty fried onions. You also got another side with your meal, which was still around $15. A real deal for sure for the great food! We ordered the fried pickles which were chips sliced thin and delicious. My sister and I gobbled then down while waiting on everyone else to join us. Highly recommend and we'll be back when we're in the area again. Great option that's able to handle crowds and provide quality meals and great service. read more

I gotta rant a little, because the experience was just not a great one. Basically, we went out for my wife's birthday and our server was our issue. Guy was rude to us several times before ordering. Talking about "I'm not an idiot, I've been serving 13 years I'm not gonna have your apps and entrees come out at the same time." And when we were talking together rushed us to order and said "okay, are we ordering or what?"Okay jerk. He brings out drinks out with the exclusion of mine. No big deal. A runner comes and brings me a drink, I confirm with her my drink and she agrees. We're comparing drinks and came to the conclusion it was not the drink I ordered. Our server comes back, and puts the correct drink on the table. I drink it, and he realizes it and I explain the situation. He asks us "how can we make this disappear." Basically, y'all screwed up and you want to take my drink back. No that's, a communication issue. Several levels prior to hitting the table and it didn't get fixed. Whatever, it's a drink. But the fact Dillion(Dylan) wanted to take my drink back is stupid. MIL has a sensitivity to gluten and was given the wrong order. Guy questions her and asks if she's GF or celiac. Next issue, don't question the health condition of a person. Rude, yet again. My wife's steak as also a blue steak, she will eat a rare steak all day long but marked as a med rare and got a blue steak. He mixed up our checks which was fine, but charged us for the drink mistake? No, also wrong. For someone who's been serving over a decade there was a lot of inexperience of his part. If you're gonna brag about it, be about it. Lot of red flags read more

The friend green tomatoes were delicious but that was about it. The steaks were over cooked and thin. The chicken wasn't chewable and extremely rubbery. We waited on our water for at least 20 minutes. Management was very nice when they came to check on us. This restaurant reminds me of Cheddars...a very pretty plate of the lowest grade food. read more

I've eaten at Holstons in Sevierville, TN twice before and thoroughly enjoyed it. I ate there 9-9-24 and I was extremely disappointed. I had the country fried steak and mashed potatoes. The steak was fried to a crisp. Couldn't hardly cut it with a knife, then couldn't chew it. The chunks of potato were not done. The fried okra was soggy. The loaded potato soup was good as well as the Avocado Fiesta. But the entree- I would have been happier with a happy meal. I will not be returning. read more

We went to the Sevierville location for our anniversary dinner. What an amazing place! Fast, friendly service. We had a super awesome waitress. I wish that I remembered her name to give her kudos here. I had the 12 ounce ribeye, salad and baked potato. Steak was cooked to perfection and melted in my mouth. Salad was cold and fresh. My wife had the fish with a salad and sweet potato. The waitress suggested a caramel sauce for the potato which she said was phenomenal. We are from Kentucky, but next time we are in the area we will definitely be back! A new 'must eat at restaurant for each visit. Next trip will most likely include the fried green tomatoes, ribs and I cannot wait to sink my teeth in some of those onion rings! read more

Excellent food and service. Very cozy ambiance and the full bar is definitely a plus. The menu serves up a great variety of delicious dishes. I highly recommend the Hawaiian Ribeye. The wait staff is friendly, professional and work very hard. I eat there often and have never been disappointed. read more

The food was delicious! I had the Fajitas and a margarita! And chips and salsa! DELICIOUS! And Lily the server was a delight! A very nice place! I will be back!! read more

We were just there for dinner. Prices aren't bad, but the waiter ruined it for us.. not your usual friendly server we've come to enjoy in Sevierville. When I told him my wine glass was dirty, he asked if I wanted another one..well, yes...and he brought the glass, put it down and walked away. Wow..no apology, no refill, nothing. Marko was really curt. read more

Well it was Mexican Monday. Ordered the chicken fajita burrito. It was very bland. Very little flavor. Chicken was tender but very little of it. Rice and beans were just ok. Service was good. Short wait time. Would not order Mexican there again: read more

Holston's - what has happened? We usually eat here on every trip to the area. It will be a long time before we eat here again. The prices have gone up (yes, I understand), the quantity and quality have gone down tremendously. We were not offered the bread that usually comes with the meal. When it did arrive, it had been microwaved and was hard. Our server told us she would bring more when it came out of the oven. That didn't happen! I ordered the Hawaiian Chicken with rice. I had to send it back TWICE!! The rice was hard, as in uncooked (or old) both times. I then substituted for mashed potatoes. One small scoop in a "monkey bowl". It looked mighty puny on the LARGE dinner plate. This meal was $15!! Hubby got the Chicken Parmesan. The Alfredo sauce was completely unseasoned. There was no taste of parmesan on the plate. This meal was not worth the $40 we spent. Our server seemed to be unconcerned with our issues. read more

Great meal and cocktails! Service wasn't amazing but not bad enough to make it not worth it to go there - the food and drinks more than compensate. Definitely recommend and liked that it was away from the strip and congestion. read more

Food was very delicious and arrived fast. We were seated and waited on quickly. We have been back many times. I can recommend the prime rip, steak, fish and chips, quesadilla, ribs, banana pudding and their salad dressings. But my favorite thing is the deep fried avocado. hands down best thing in the menu. We get it EVERY time. Sooo delicious.. I want it right now... GO GET YOURSELF ONE!! read more

'Twas the morning before Christmas, a trip to Tennessee Baby W.'s stomach was growing, he was hungry, you see. After a breakfast of bacon, and a petting zoo, finding a place to eat was the thing which we wished to do. The child was nestled all snug in his car seat, while visions of lunch made him dance with his feet. And Mrs. W. in her sweater, and I in my hoodie, knew finding something to eat was our first and only duty. Calling an Italian restaurant received no such answer, and pizza and barbecue was not able to convince her. The rolling pastures and freckled hills, gave the lustre of midday's meal quite the thrill. When, what to my Yelp search did appear? Holston's Kitchen--a restaurant within our sphere. With a little old lady answering the phone, I knew at that moment, we would no longer be eating alone. Arriving at the address, lo did it appear, a restaurant that clearly was obviously quite near. Our waitress was fast, our grub she dost named, she whistled, and shouted, and called it by name: "Now burgers! Now salads! Now, fries and steaks! On, tenders! On, sandwiches! On, seafood and cakes! To the top of the table! To the top of the wall! Now eat away! Eat away! Eat away all!" I had a Philly cheese. It was pretty good. read more

Good food for everyday kinda comfort foods. Service was ok. Not great, but ok. Casual, noisy place.

Holston's is good restaurant. We are local to the area- warning gets really busy past 4:30! The ribs are the best my hubby says. I like the country fried chicken with white gravy and mash potatoes! Just like Mon use to make. Great sandwiches too! Service always good! read more

My husband and I were in Gatlinburg for vacation. After reading several reviews and really not wanting to deal with Gatlinburg traffic; we chose this steak house. There was a 10 min wait when we arrived, so we chose to sit at the bar and have a drink. The bartender was very friendly and efficient. We then chose to sit at a booth in at the bar so she could wait on us. We both ordered the Rib Eye with steamed broccoli ( he also had a baked potato). We both commented on how how delicious our steaks were and we loved the little side salad that came with the meal. We also tried the fried tomatoes because we never had them before and they didn't disappoint. The prices are comparable to what we're used to paying at home. The servings were generous. We went home stuffed and I took half of my steak home. If you're looking for a good steak with good service it's worth your time and money! read more

Been coming here for years and always had a great time. Like the ambiance and atmosphere also good service. This time was fish and chips, cod is moist and tasty with nice crispy batter. Would love to have bigger chips though, shoestrings don't work well with fish but that's my opinion. read more

Nope... Probably will not be back. We had eaten here before, a few times actually, and it was great. This time was VERY disappointing. My wife and I ordered burgers. Both were extremely over-cooked, dry and just miserable. I order onion rings and apparently they only give you six as a side. They also were over cooked and just breaded crunch. While we were waiting on our food 2 things took place that were just shocking to us. The first one was raw chicken. A couple behind us had ordered the chicken fajita and it came out raw. Not even cooked! The second thing that happened was a family of 6 was sat in a booth that could only hold 4 at best. They asked to be moved to an another booth and was refused. This poor family sat with one leg standing and another on the seat on the ends of the booth. When they brought the food to them, they had no room for their plates and left 2 gentleman holding their plates instead of placing them on the table. In the meantime, the table they had ask to be moved to only had 3 people sitting at it. The only reason I give Holston's two stars is because of our waitress. She was very nice and kept our drinks filled. Other than her, it would be a one star review. BTW, we left paying $37 for two burgers and two reg sweat teas. That's NOT including the tip. I got the Whiskey Bent, regular beef patty not brisket (still @ $15), my wife ordered the Mexico City, GF bun ($13). We've had better meals at fast food chains. So disappointing. read more

Somewhat of an average experience. Our appetizers were good. We ordered the brisket egg rolls and fried green tomatoes. I would recommend both. However, the dinner rolls were clearly not homemade. I'm certain they got them from a food purveyor.... As far as entrees, I ordered a ribeye. It was cooked to a perfect medium, and had decent flavor, but the cut was overly chewy. I expect that out of a sirloin, but a ribeye should be more tender. My sweet potato was good. My wife's sirloin was overcooked. The chimichurri butter that was on top of our steaks was too salty, and tasted as if it had too much garlic. The salads were iceberg based, primarily the heart of the iceberg, but I ordered a Caesar. A Caesar should only be romaine. Our friend ordered a southwest chicken salad as her entree, and she literally said it was the worst salad she ever had at a restaurant. Not a terrible experience, but it was lack luster. I might go back to try something else one day, but there a lot of other steakhouses I'd probably try first. read more

Everything we ordered was very good. It wasn't excellent, but it was very good. Green tomatoes cooked well but would be better with roumalade. Steak and mashed potatoes good. Turkey burger good with great toppings. Banana pudding was interesting to try. read more

One of the best places to eat! Fabulous!! must try restaurant. From the time you walk in everyone was is so friendly. Great service!!
