    Catfish Sandwich
    Trisha K.

    Ate here on a quick trip across the Tennessee border. I was with my husband and adult children. Everything was excellent. My daughter ordered grilled chicken. My son ordered steak and shrimp. My other son ordered shrimp fettuccine. My husband ordered philly cheese steak sandwich. I ordered catfish sandwich. We also got spinach dip. No one was disappointed. We will definitely be back. Worth the drive. The servers were incredibly friendly and attentive. Alyssa was our server. If you get her, consider yourself incredibly fortunate.

    Chicken tenders

    Came with my family after we rode on the Polar Express train experience. We waited 15 minutes for the waitress to come get our drink order and then over an hour and a half for our food. When we got the food it was raw. The waitress didn't even seem fazed when we showed her the chicken. She just took it away and went on bringing out other peoples food. Overall terrible experience, but at least it looked pretty with the Christmas decorations.

    Fried Green Tomatoes and fried Pickles!

    Sauce in their spaghetti and meatballs is remarkably tasty. Tidy dining room, friendly staff.

    We had a dinner circuit with friends of local eateries and this place landed on the shortlist…read more DellaSantina has been open for several years and recently added a pizzeria that is completely separate next door. It is away from from the beaten path of the Smokies and they recommend reservations for dinner. Open at 3pm, I called and he gave us a 6:15 time which worked well on a slower Wednesday. The entrance gives way to a nice bar area with a few TVs, booths and white linen tables. We each settled on a bottle of Sangiovese and Pinot Grigio and the mussels appetizer and bruschetta. Our waiter Andrei was professional and prompt. We decided to have a glass of wine and enjoy conversation and our apps without ordering our entrees and expediting the occasion. Andrei checked back several times and kept our waters full and was very patient. We settled on clams fettuccini with a white wine butter sauce and my lady got the mussels in the same sauce. It was a garlic lover's delight and I'm certain I'll never be a vampire. We enjoyed the setting and the atmosphere was relaxed. A liquid dessert pour of tequila and whiskey settled us and we skipped dessert although it was tempting. Overall the prices were a bit higher but the service was excellent and our meal rang true. It was a great first impression and we had leftovers. It will be added into our rotation and look forward to trying other pastas and seafood.

    The Frutti di Mare is phenomenal!!!…read more We happened upon this wonderful location by watching "Adventure is Out There" on YouTube. Totally off the beaten path, and so worth it. Just when you think you're lost, you arrive. The Focaccia bread that is served really good. Suggest getting marina as opposed to olive oil for dipping. The meatball was nice sized (big enough to share) and marinara sauce was really good. The Frutti di Mare was suggested by our waiter Anthony (very knowledgeable about the menu and offerings) to use white wine sauce. It was a great suggestion. The ingredients were obviously fresh and the portion size was easily shareable. We shared a Tiramisu. And let me preface that my wife has never liked this dessert. But the YouTube review swayed her perspective. And she loved it. You can tell that it's a labor to make (we talked to the owner's wife and she concurred). The only negative would be due to personal preference. The Caesar salad dressing didn't have anchovies. It was lemon forward and good, but it's just something that we like.
