Locals said everything is good here. Their pizza was amazing! We tried the cheese, supreme, and Philly cheesesteak. Wow! Great crust! Excellent flavor! Service was fast. Bathrooms were clean. Staff was friendly. Definitely give them a try. You won't regret it. read more

Great food! My family loves the atmosphere, it was packed for Monday. Highly recommend the wings and the Philly cheesesteak steak sandwich. We will definitely recommend! read more

I visited while in town for a basketball tournament and ate with the team and parents. This is definitely a hidden treasure. This was approximately 2 miles away from the casino and the food was GREAT. I got a Philly cheesesteak with fries and wish I would've ordered 2. They serve pizza, wings, and various sandwiches. The service was great, there was plenty of seating and tvs to enjoy sports or other things. There's outside seating for when it's warmer. Next time I'm visiting the casino this place is a must stop. read more

We had the burgers, fries and onion rings the first day. The onion rings weren't good at all. They were oily and soggy. Burgers were mediocre. We decided to give the place another try but this time we had the wings and pizza. Both were excellent! The service was great both times. We will definitely be returning. read more

After taking the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad Train, we stopped for late afternoon/ early dinner at Wize Guyz Grille. Arrived not crowded meet with friendly staff eager to explain menu options... very helpful. I decided on the Burger with blue cheese and smoked bacon large fries, husband added a grill chicken sandwich. Had a seat with number for food to brought out. Didn't take long... Was delighted by presentation and freshness. Condiments were on the table for self service. Drinks were self serve as well. The burger was tasty and cooked to perfection as I like (pink middle) . The smoked bacon and blue cheese gave it the right amount of blend and flavor. Also loved the large cut of hot crispy fries. Didn't need salt or ketchup to enhance the taste. I noticed how the runner and floor staff maintained the cleanliness of the tables and reset for the next round of guests as soon as a table finished. We topped off our drinks and as we were leaving the staff thanked us for coming and hope we enjoyed it. Throughly enjoyed our food and experience. Highly recommend for a fast , hot, and delicious food experience. read more

It was really good we got a pizza, wings, burger, hotdogs, egg-rolls, and all of that was around 80 dollars all of it was delicious and the look of the place was nice and the employees were great too would recommend. read more

Small place that's was nice enough but not very memorable. The food, service, and cleanliness were all okay. I'd go again but I wouldn't go out of my way to get there. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this place but I have nothing superlative to say either. read more

Simply put, it was a pleasure to eat here! We as a family have been traveling from Atlanta to Pigeon Forge for more than a decade and we have passed through Cherokee over a dozen times to eat. I would describe most of our experiences as mediocre AT BEST, and that's being kind. But after seeing the excellent ratings for Wize Guyz we decided to give them a go. BEST.DECISION.EVER! We tried everything from white spinach pizza with grilled chicken to the incredibly tasty OMG BURGER, fish dinner and fried mushrooms. Everything exceeded our expectations, particularly the burgers, mushrooms and cheese sticks. Often restaurant burgers are only seasoned with just a touch of salt, but here you can taste real seasoning all throughout the meat... just like I make them at home. We were so surprised by this that we requested to speak to the owner/chef so we could shake his hand. We wanted to meet him because not only was the food delicious, but the staff seemed so happy and well trained. I know from years of being in management that your staff and the atmosphere thereof is a direct reflection of those in charge and their managerial abilities. It was clear to me his excellence extended well beyond his cooking. [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] They are undoubtedly the best food experience we've ever had in Cherokee and I'm looking forward to our next visit where we plan to try their sister seafood restaurant named 'ALL FRIED UP'. The menu looks incredibly tasty and if they are even half as good as Wize Guyz we will be extremely pleased. NOTE TO THE STAFF - I want you to know we always ask our family "what was your favorite part of the trip?" when we arrive back home. Wize Guyz was mentioned multiple times as one our tribes favorite food experiences. My entire family thanks you so much for bringing deliciousness to our road trip! 2022 / 94 #BlackOwnedBusinessSeries read more

So my wife and I headed to Cherokee, NC and we went to the Casino (now we didn't go to gamble...actually we are foodies and wanted to see the different food courts and food choices...just say we were not impressed with the reviews and the wait times!). We decided to try a local establishment and found Wise Guyz. When it has better reviews than the casino restaurants....you know it is good and Yes, it was! The hamburger I had was a fresh patty, the pickle fries were great. Even tried a slice of cheese pizza...it was great! Recommend Wise Guyz....we will be back and will eat the spaghetti next time...from what I saw it looked fabulous! read more

I don't care what you do in Cherokee, but you have to stop and eat at Wise Guyz!! We will be back as soon as we come back to Cherokee! read more

This is the best value in Cherokee. I went due to the number of good reviews on Yelp. I had the OMG burger, onion rings and a drink and it was an incredible amount of food! Service was excellent and my food came out fast and piping hot. The OMG burger was so over the top as it had the kitchen sink included with two patties and a fried egg. I do think it was missing something as it didn't come with pickles but otherwise great. When I'm back in Cherokee, I know that I will be going back here. read more

It was the best pizza and wings I ever had. The owner and the soon to be manager at the new location stop by and said hi and gave us from the time we got our drinks and went to the restroom and came back. Our food was at the table waiting for us. read more

What an amazing place! I will say that I have come to Cherokee tons of times.. definitely enough to not expect much out of most of the restaurants there. No I'm not trying to be too critical but as I am of the nation.. I feel like I have a little bit more invested than just a typical tourist. My wife found this place and offered it up with me not having too high of an expectation. When we walked in we were very nicely greeted by the young lady at the register named Charity. She immediately complimented my wife on her hair and her makeup as well as projected such a top-notch customer service attitude. She was very joyful and made sure that she cut full as well as recommended a dish (Fajita Sub) that my wife found very delightful. Also their price for a dozen chicken wings was definitely impressive since most places that I know charge at least $4 more. The flavors that I got for the wings were very tasteful in the wings were a substantial size for the price. Since I am a buff for sweet tea there's hit the spot! I will definitely push anyone going to this establishment anytime I can and look forward to returning when we come back! read more

Ordered takeout large pizza with cheese only on 1 side and pepperoni/ cheese on the other. Crust was thin and foldable. Took less than 15 minutes and was ready when I walked in. About$15. Yummy. read more

Tried this place while vacationing. The place looked clean. Our order was taken quickly. Covid safety is definitely adhered in this entire shopping center, the whole town matter of fact. The food came fast . My husband said they were the best Lemon pepper wings he had ever had. That says a lot because my husband eat wings often. We ordered nachos as an appetizer, but I wish the cashier had given us an option to get a small because they were big enough to be a meal. The only drawback I found was the sodas tasted funny. The lemonade was good. And the other thing was they add a dollar up charge and when I asked them why they said something about Covid? read more

We had the chicken Parmesan, the buffalo chicken sandwich, and the Philly cheesesteak. They all delicious!!! Service was fast and the employees were really nice. read more

We really enjoyed our chicken philly, pepperoni pizza and spaghetti with meat sauce. The food was great and the staff was even greater.

I'll start by saying the customer service here is FANTASTIC! We had never been here before and they offered to help and answer and questions we had about the menu. We opted to get the pizza and wings...Seriously the BEST wings I have ever had. Pizza was also delicious! The only thing they could do different is have house made ranch! read more

Wings and fries were really good. They have good ranch! The staff was kind and help with suggestions.

What a wonderful place to eat! The staff, from cooking staff to runners to cashiers to managers were happy, helpful and amazing! The food was good, everything came out hot at one time. So in this case appetizers on the menu are just an extra side. But no worries the food comes out quickly! We are looking forward to the grand opening of Wize Guyz Grille in Bryson City NC! read more

We stopped here on the way home after the casino beat us down... the employees were welcoming. We asked what's the best item on the menu and they replied, "Everything!" That's what I like to hear!! When I say I'm a burger connoisseur, that's what I mean. This burger was so flavorful, juicy and satisfying. Those chips packed flavor as well. The hot dog, delicious. I can't wait to come back!! read more

This is a nice local restaurant in Cherokee. Stopped by for lunch today and got the 2 pizza slices and drink special for 7 bucks. Actually the pizza came out as a whole medium pizza (pictured). Maybe the guy thought I was hungry after hiking. In any case it was really good. The crust was slightly burnt on the edges which gave it nice contrast to the rest, which is how I like it. Pizza took awhile to get, but that was because they were making it fresh. That type of wait is fine by me. Super friendly staff. Basically you order at the counter and grab a seat, I sat at one of the high top tables. Huge parking lot out front. The hike I mentioned. Cross the street in front of the restaurant and cross the river on the pedestrian ONLY bridge. This is the start of the River trail. It is 1.5 flat miles to the visitors center. So 3 miles round-trip if you do the whole thing, but you can turn around anytime. Forgot to mention they have burgers too, but at this time I am sold in the great pizza! read more

Wize Guyz Grille - 7 buck lunch special. - American Near Me - Cherokee, North Carolina

Nothing special. Had some burger salad and stuff there. The chief burger double patty was quite bland and dry. Caesar was alright, ranch was way too salty. Cheese chili fries was so salty it's inedible. Wings alright. In terms of food, would recommend the Native brews across the street instead. read more

What a wonderful surprise! Recommended by staff at our hotel. We first went there after a very disappointing meal elsewhere (see review for Granny's). Wize Guys is tucked away in a corner and very non assuming but again, a great surprise. We ordered two large pizzas not realizing their larges are a whopping 18"! Very very reasonable prices. Went back for lunch the next day and had burgers, fries, wings and ultimate nachos. The burgers are real burgers. Cooked just right! They have a large selection of burgers too, many different toppings. A basket of fries fed 4 of us and we had enough left to feed us again. And they're excellent. The nachos were huge. Must have weighed 3 lbs or more. I wish I had taken pics of the pizza, wings and burgers but I didn't. This is the perfect spot for a good, reasonable meal. They also have pastas, (no lasagna unfortunately) lots of appetizers, and many pizza varieties. Overall a winner for sure. read more

Yummy food and great service! The team was friendly and the food was fast. Portions were a bit small but everything tasted great

Locally owned, hole in the wall restaurant with a variety of items on the menu. Many of the surrounding shops have closed and this restaurant is off the main drag in Cherokee but definitely worth going out of the way for. The pizza is excellent, especially the veggie. The home made potato chips are divine. You can't go wrong with the burger, chicken fajitas sandwich, or the Philly Cheese Steak. As a local this is one of my go to spots for a quality meal, lunch or dinner. read more

I was pretty underwhelmed by the food in Cherokee with the exception of Wize Guyz. We tried cheese pizza, veggie pizza, the burger with an over easy egg on it, and a double decker burger with fries. Everyone enjoyed their items and the prices were fantastic. read more

Was pretty good. We ate dinner there in Cherokee NC. I had a hamburger, but the pizza looked amazing.

Don't bother with the Philly cheese steak sandwich, very small for the price. The attraction here is the deal on cheese pizza read more
