    Jumbo Fried Shrimp
    Maya T.

    This place instantly has the vibes of like any basic pub just cozy. The service was great and the food was great. I got just basic jumbo shrimp and a backed potato. I'll tell you what, he asked me if I wanted extra butter and WHOOW who could POSSIBLY take MORE butter than what was given because that potato was FULL with butter. The shrimp was delicious! My mother got the black bean burger and it was just as good. A friend that her mashed potatoes were a little cold but that's alright cause she still ate it haha Keep it up Timberwood!

    I was staying at the Margaritaville Island Hotel and was walking around and decided to try this place out. While coming in, this Hispanic female hostess standing at the front table appeared to have some attitude when my better half asked her for a booth. She definitely needs to brush up on her customer service skills. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful. What a sigh of relief after the rude hostess. I ordered the Bison burger with loaded baked potato. The burger was a bit dry but very flavorful. It had very good seasoning and flavor on it. The loaded baked potato wasn't bad as well. The sweet tea was very good and I think I drank like a ton. I definitely would like to come back and try some different food next time.

    The ambiance setting is perfect for a restaurant close to the Smoky Mts. It reflects the woody area. The wings were tender a juicy with just the right type of bbq sauce. The beer was ice cold and refreshing for the hot day. Service was relatively quick. So if your at the The Island in Pigeon Forge Tn. stop in for some good food.

    Kids cheeseburger

    First, this place was freezing when we walked in. Our server took a minute to get our drinks but she was on point the rest of our time here. Potato cracklins were a huge disappointment. They were cold and lacked any flavor that I was hoping for. Potato soup was runny, not very cheesy and way over peppered. Now I will say I had just had the best bowl of potato soups at Longhorn the other day so I don't know if this place stood a chance but, I can make better soup. My daughter loved the Mac and cheese. Creamy and rich....all the things she loves. And my youngest said her cheeseburger was all she hoped for despite telling me she wasn't hungry when we got there.

    Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with Fries
    Jessie D.

    We tried this place the last time we were in Tennessee and staying at Margaritaville on the Island. We remembered it was a ton of food, good food, and good service, and this time was no different! My husband and toddler had chicken tenders, fries, macaroni and cheese, and I had the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with fries. It was so good! The service was quick and our server was friendly. It was a lot of food again and none of us finished everything. The Buffalo chicken sandwich is hot, so if you're not into hot Buffalo sauce, steer away. The inside of this place is very woodsy and outdoorsy, while being open, but cozy. It's a very welcoming place. We will make this a permanent spot to stop from now on during our visits!

    We enjoyed this so much for lunch a couple days later we came back again for dinner. Chicken pot pie, burgers, steak all very good. They also have a nice beer selection and even with a group of 10 plus our server was very attentive.

    Dutch Oven Chicken Pot Pie
    Lyssa C.

    Out exploring and was pleasantly surprised how great our experience was in a tourist area. We sat at the bar and were greeted immediately. Server recommended the pot pie and it did not disappoint. It was creamy and delicious. My husband enjoyed his plate and I tried a bite of his beans and they were great. There were buzzers cleaning tables immediately and everything was clean and everyone was friendly. Would go back again.

    Trapper Jack's Handcut Sirloin* With a loaded Baked Potato Macaroni and Cheese
    Jaime S.

    Got seated right away on a Thursday evening. Our waitress was friendly but she was kinda pushy about getting us to order quickly although they wasn't really busy. We got the potato crackins for our appetizer. Kinda disappointed with the portion size and the amount of queso, sour cream and onions that were supposed to be on them. Anyway they were good. I had the fried bologna sandwich with steamed broccoli and it was really good! I was worried about the mustard but I didn't even see any mustard on it and it had just a taste of mayo on it. Broccoli was just ok. Boyfriend had a sirloin with a loaded baked potato and Mac and Cheese! I got a bite and it all was really good! Has a fun laidback country vibe with mining , fishing and stuffed wildlife around. They have an arcade in the back as well!

    Jumbo wings - Cajun dry rub with ranch dressing
    Michael C.

    Had the Jumbo wings with the Cajun dry rub. They were excellent. Had a side of Mac n Cheese and I couldn't finish it. They arrived like warm and just didn't taste that good to me. Service was on average. Nothing to write home about. Drinks were always filled. That's about all I could say about our server. It was Valentine's Day so I'm taking that into account but this located in The Island at Pigeon Forge which is always super busy on the weekends. My wife and I have eaten here several times now and I'm sure we will be back in the future.

    Entrance
    Jessica C.

    Best Burger I've had in a while. We came here late in the evening on a Sunday night. It was not busy got seated right away. Service: Excellent service from the hostess to the waitress Yulia. She was attentive and had patience with us. Especially since we had a toddler. She checked on us throughout the meal. Ambiance: clean and great decor. We loved the bear at the entrance. We also liked how close we sat next to the Arcade City, the kids can go over there while waiting on food. Food: The food was better than expected. Mash potatoes: unique that peel was included but mashed Kids corn dog: our picky eater devoured it Mac and cheese burger: Amazing, well cooked and flavorful. Perfect amount of Mac. Mac and cheese: perfect home style taste Smokey Burger: pretty good Bathrooms: clean and well maintained Drinks: S'mores drink: tasty highly recommend Fruit punch: wouldn't recommend Great restaurant and bar

    April, 2025.

    My husband and I visited Timberwood Grill when visiting the Island in Pigeon Forge in April, 2025. Food (4/5). As usual, my husband and I split our entrees. We got a Strawberry Chicken Salad ($16.99), described as a bourbon-glazed grilled chicken breast sliced thin and served over fresh farmers market greens with sliced strawberries, caramelized pecans, and blue cheese crumbles. While it's usually served with a vinaigrette, we substituted a blue cheese dressing, served on the side. Our rating for the salad is 3/5. While the ingredients tasted fresh, the chicken pieces were cut too thick and we couldn't taste the glaze at all. In addition, the strawberry and blue cheese toppings were sparse. The size of the salad was also quite small given the price point. Our second entree was the Steakhouse Burger ($15.99), served with one side. The burger featured a half-pound hamburger patty, topped with Swiss and Pepper Jack cheeses, sautéed mushrooms, applewood bacon, A1 sauce, and onion straws. We ordered macaroni and cheese as the side. Our rating for the Steakhouse Burger is 4/5. We enjoyed the burger and the flavor combinations. The issue was that we specified that we wanted the burger cooked well-done, but the center of the burger that we received was still quite pink. We didn't send it back because it was still edible, but not at our preferred doneness. The macaroni-and-cheese was excellent (5/5), hot and gooey, melt-in-your-mouth. Ambiance. (3/5). This is a large and hectic restaurant with a lot of activity. Patrons being seated. Servers passing back and forth with food and drinks on trays. Etc. The restrooms are also too small for the size of the restaurant. A line formed in the ladies room. Service (4/5). Our waitress got the job done. She was efficient in bringing our menus, bringing our food and waters, etc. One small pet peeve -- she brought our check long before we were finished eating. Value (3/5). The entrees were a bit expensive, but in line with prices in this touristy area. Also, the menu is posted outside of the restaurant WITHOUT prices! We did check on-line before entering so there were no surprises.

    Location at the island was perfect. Sampler appetizer plate was good, queso and cheese dip on point.

As for the food, it was honestly pretty underwhelming considering how hyped this place is. The crab dip was okay, nothing memorable. The steak and lobster was disappointing- the lobster had that soft texture that overcooked or not-so-fresh crawfish can have. The baked shrimp wasn't bad, but definitely not something I'd order again. Strawberry shortcake was decent enough. Ironically, the bread basket ended up being my favorite part of the meal-absolutely delicious. The service, however, was genuinely warm and hospitable. It was a bit slow, but the staff was kind, friendly, and personable enough that it made up for it. That was honestly the highlight of the experience. Was I excited to try this place because of all the hype? Absolutely. Would I personally recommend it? Probably not.
