Wow!! This place was a total surprise. I hate to say don't eat anywhere else on the Gatlinburg strip, but really. The Spicy Tofu Sandwich Combo blew me away!! If they have the hash brown casserole as a side, don't skip it! Literally the best I've had. 10/10 experience with food and staff! The restaurant is a tribute to the Grateful Dead, it's a fun theme. read more

I ordered Corned Beef and Swiss on Rye. I am visiting from Orlando and saw their menu walking by yesterday. They were really busy around 1pm. The corned beef was amazing, like I would expect from Katz's Deli. It's a bit of a hole in the wall, but I will definitely be back. read more

On one of the hottest days, I somehow stumbled into this place wearing my only Grateful Dead shirt (which scored me a sticker.) I got a chili dog- but it was executed so well, and that potato salad?! Delish. Friendly staff, and all the grateful vibes.. a must stop in the downtown Gatlinburg area! read more

Holy moly guacamole! I had to try it myself to believe it - the Reuben here is legendary. The corned beef is SO good. The char is excellent, and the saltiness and flavor are perfect. The rye is toasted to perfection. This was one of the most excellent sandwiches I've had; it's just so balanced in texture, flavor, saltiness, and size. The bbq sandwich was also pretty good. The pulled pork was pretty moist, and the bun was nice and toasted. Peanut butter pie was delicious! I loved the crust. The pineapple jalapeño kombucha is from a local brand in Knoxville. It is very unique, and I would recommend it if you want to try something new. Staff were very friendly. The customers were also very friendly and enthusiastic about these sandwiches. There's plenty of seating inside and outside. The store is honestly not too busy, even in the summertime. Maybe it still counts as a hidden gem?? read more

Ruben and Turkey Bacon sandwiches were SO good. Great service. Our fam wasn't a fan of the Cuban.

Absolutely delicious! Rueben was fantastic, Pulled Pork, Chicken Salad, and Ham and Swiss all good.

I went against my own rule when we visited here. The rule is - if it's a sandwich joint, order a sandwich! I didn't. I ordered the Loaded Frito Pie, and it did not disappoint. It was actually too much food, in my opinion. I only ate about half of it. The restaurant is located right on the main strip in Gatlinburg and is just a small shop with a handful of indoor tables. There is also an outdoor patio that would not be suggested on a hot day in June. The staff were nice and friendly. The welcomed us and checked in on us, as they began preparing to close up for the day. They even invited us back for breakfast the next morning. I think them serving breakfast is a fairly new thing for them. read more

Me and my family went to the sky lift and it took a toll on all five of our bodies. Until we went to Tennessee Jed's it was like an oasis in the middle of the Sahara. I had the best Dr Pepper I have ever had. I had the classic BBQ with potato chips. The classic BBQ needed a tad bit more BBQ. The potato chips were so good and I really enjoyed it. The ambiance is cool! It is a sweet little place and it was just a great vibe. The front lady was awesome and she got our order correct which is always great. FYI does not matter if you're not a watermelon fan eat it anyways. read more

Run on over Jed's right NOW. We just completed our little adventure through Cade's Cove and we were in dire need of some great grub. What better place than Gatlinburg's BEST RATED sandwich spot?! It definitely was the best in our book! We ordered the Turkey Bacon Ranch Sandwich with a side of Baked Beans (that were knee slapping good) and we just had to try a yummy dessert! We split the Peanut Butter Pie as well. The bacon was crisp and the perfect accompaniment to the tender juicy turkey. Not to mention their ranch is HOMEMADE and is absolutely phenomenal. 12/10, next Gatlinburg trip we will be running on back! (Due to the holiday for being low staffed the food came out without a long wait, I feel like I could taste the love! This cute little sandwich spot is going to be the perfect addition to your Gatlinburg trip! Don't knock it until you try it!) read more

Excellent food and service! Best sandwich I've had in a while. The frito chili pie was amazing!

I can't even begin to to say how much I was looking forward to visiting Tennessee Jed's- I had heard so much from friends in the grateful dead community about this place.. and OMGosh did it live up to the reputation! I got the loaded Frito pie- it was full of flavor, balanced spices, crunch and all the topping you would want. My family got the pulled pork and corned beef. The service was quick and efficient, and the ambiance was welcoming- both inside and outside seating. The music was jamming and the staff could not have been more friendly. This was a highlight of my time in Gatlinburg.. IF you are walking the shakedown shopping street of Gatlinburg- make sure to get your bones into Tennessee Jed's to say Hi!!! Fare Thee Well!! read more

Parking in Gatlinburg is atrocious, but I really wanted to try that reuben. My husband dropped me in front of Jed's and circled the block a couple of times while I ran in and grabbed sandwiches. Thankfully, no one was waiting in front of me and they were fast. No one was particularly friendly, but they weren't rude either. My reuben was great and my husband's cuban was good. We also got a piece of butter cake that was really sweet. A solid, but not cheap, sandwich experience. read more

My family was a little nervous about me choosing this spot for lunch. Little did we know how freaking good the sandwich's were. The Ruben and turkey,bacon, ranch sandwiches were insane. I would rather pay $20 for a single sandwich here (just as an example they didn't cost that much) than almost $30 for dry as hell chicken at the old mill. read more

Get the Rueben! The meat is so tender that even the bits of fat melt in your mouth. The staff is very friendly and service is quick. You place your order at the counter and pay and then take a seat either inside or on the patio and they bring the food to you. They also have a good selection of bottled beers. So glad this place was recommended to us by a local business owner. read more

Everything about Tennesee Jed's was perfect! We were hangry after walking the strip all morning in search of a breakfast place that didn't have an 1hr + wait time. We found Tennessee Jed's and the food, service, and patio seating was just what we were looking for! You can tell a lot of thought went into the menu and recipes. The ambiance was great being right off the strip but had the feeling like you were tucked away from the chaos. I would definitely recommend the Turkey Bacon Ranch with a side of the hash-brown casserole! read more

Reuben is amazing! Turkey Bacon sandwich is amazing. Love the staff! Right in the heart of Gatlinburg, TN.

The five of us all really enjoyed our lunch sandwiches. Very tasty, especially the breads. Nice little patio with umbrella tables and a big fan to move air on a hot afternoon. My negative comment is the woman working the counter was very snarky in the most off-putting way. Just rude little comments about the simplest request. Patrons have dozens of meal options along the strip. When folk choose your establishment, ACT APPRECIATIVE! read more

Grabbed a quick lunch! I got the delicious Ruben sandwich. They served it on swirl rye bread that was perfectly toasted and a good portion of corned beef, with slightly salted sauerkraut. They have indoor and outdoor seating. It's a small place so most of the seating is outside in the shade. They do allow dogs on the patio as long as they don't bark. The staff was very kind and helpful. read more

I'm quite disappointed after seeing such great reviews of the place. Prices are expensive, but relatively average compared to prices around town. I went with the roasted turkey platter that came with two sides - I got watermelon and beans. It also comes with a side of BBQ sauce. The roasted turkey was decent, but nothing to write home about. The beans were alright, and the watermelon wasn't even cold! Not to mention, my friend who got watermelon found a piece of plastic in it. Portion sizes were okay, and everything just felt meh. I also found the lady who ran the cash register to be a bit passive aggressive when I asked about which sides contained dairy. I wish that I had the experience that so many other people did, but I just wouldn't come back. read more

Amazing little nook with the tastiest sandwiches. We had Cuban and Turkey Bacon Ranch. So glad we stopped bye.

Rueban, yes. Hash-browns casserole, yes. Genevieve, yes. Outdoor seating with shade, yes. All jokes aside, this is the best meal I've had since being here. Genevieve greeted every single person that walked through the door, she's amazing. read more

First off I dived in to this sandwich before I remembered to take a picture! Jump off the main drag of downtown Gatlinburg and treat yourself to the delicious food here. Everything is prepared fresh daily and the service is amazing. $3 dollar beers after 3:00pm and top off your meal with butter cake or peanut butter pie! read more

Loved the food so much . The place inside is small with lots of patio dining. You need to order your food at the counter and serve you to the table. The lady is really sweet and passionate. We ordered tofu sandwich with a side of sweet potato casserole. Their sweet potato casserole is a bomb and so is the tofu sandwich. We also tried tomato bisque with grilled cheese and while grilled cheese was not the best tomato bisque takes it all. Highly recommend to taste their casserole at the least read more

Stopped in this place in the heart of Gatlinburg and got a breakfast sandwich to eat while walking around town. Sausage, Egg, and Cheese sandwich. It was FANTASTIC and I'll definitely be back next time we are in Gatlinburg. The only minor thing I would change is to offer it on a large croissant rather than a hamburger bun. read more
