Now for the drinks, I ordered a strawberry dacquari and my boyfriend ordered a strawberry margarita. Both were visually appealing BUT the taste is where they really shine. He said his tasted like a milkshake. As far as my dacquari I could tell it was made with a coconut liquor which brought the flavor to the next level. Easily the best dacquari I've ever tasted and it had the perfect alcohol content. They are located in a tiny shopping plaza so be prepared for shared parking with other businesses but it wasn't hard to find a spot to park. While we sat at the bar they also offer outdoor seating for nice weather. Definitely recommend!

I ordered the birria tacos with a side of rice and beans, and it was about $20. The consomé was actually pretty tasty, and the birria was good but definitely not traditional birria. The rice and beans were both pretty blah and nothing I'd order again. One thing that bothered me was the tip situation. People shouldn't expect a tip for a to-go order. I waited for my change, and when she asked if I wanted it, I said yes. She was digging around, I think in a tip jar, looking for change, and I still didn't get all of my change back. It is what it is, but between that and the overall experience, I won't be back.

I really wanted to enjoy our visit to Cielito Lindo in Pigeon Forge, but unfortunately the customer…read moreservice overshadowed what was otherwise good food. From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were an inconvenience rather than paying customers. The hostess seated us at a table that clearly wasn't large enough for our party, and when we politely asked if we could move to a table that actually fit us, she seemed visibly irritated. That was not a great first impression. Things didn't improve from there. Our waiter, Eliezer, didn't even come to our table to take our order. Instead, he stood over at the kiosk and called out to us asking what we wanted to eat, almost like a hog-calling contest across the restaurant. It honestly felt disrespectful and impersonal. What made it even more frustrating was watching him walk over to other tables and take their orders normally. We couldn't help but wonder why we were treated differently. The food itself was actually very good. The fajitas were flavorful, arrived quickly, and were one of the highlights of the meal. However, when they were served, I wasn't given an extra plate. I had to ask multiple times before one was finally brought over. I wasn't sure if I was expected to assemble my tortillas on my lap. The one bright spot of our visit was Alex, who was bussing tables. He was genuinely kind, attentive, and treated us with respect. His friendliness stood out and was honestly the best part of our experience. Thank you, Alex, for showing us the level of hospitality we expected from the beginning. Great food can only carry a restaurant so far. Service matters, and feeling welcomed matters even more. While the food was flavorful and arrived promptly, the way we were treated left a lasting negative impression. We won't be returning, and I truly hope management addresses the customer service issues because the kitchen is doing its part--the front-of-house staff needs to do theirs.

We were delightfully surprised when we went to El Soñador in Gatlinburg. My husband and I shared a margarita flight with strawberry being our favorite and the trio chips and dip. Queso was warm and tasty, guacamole was chunky and full of the perfect flavor and refried bean dip was delicious. It was served with warm, fresh chips and salsa. The salsa was okay, not the best we've had. We only went for an afternoon snack because we were a little skeptical but we would like to go back for a full meal. The service was excellent with warm, inviting and friendly people. We sat by the window which was nice to be able to look out at the activity of Gatlinburg.

We had an outstanding meal at Talitas Restaurant in Pigeon Forge! The restaurant is exceptionally…read moreclean, and the staff is incredibly attentive, friendly, and welcoming. What really sets Talitas apart is the amazing Honduran flair they bring to their Mexican dishes. Having spent nine years in Tucson and the last two years in East Texas--both places known for outstanding Mexican food--I can honestly say Talitas ranks right up there with the best. The salsa is delicious and comes with two additional house sauces. The green sauce is mild with incredible flavor, while the red sauce definitely brings the heat. If I'm saying it's spicy, you can count on it having a real kick! The fajitas were absolutely fantastic--perfectly cooked, flavorful, and generously portioned. If you're looking for authentic flavors, great service, and a spotless restaurant in Pigeon Forge, Talitas is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back!
