Connor’s does a great job for those needing gluten-free! They ensure all food is cooked separately with new utensils to keep all gluten out of the preparation area. We know we will have safe gluten-free food.

Excellent. I was here once in June & loved it. Back in YN from Oakland CA to visit Dollywood at krismas with my husband & had to take him to the Dancing Bear. He thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope to eat hear again some day! This is the best spot you will find in this region of TN. Well worth the drive from Pigeon Forge area!

A great night. Started out sitting outside under the lights at the fire pit. Reverse dinner. Made s’mores in the fire while we sipped Old fashions. Moved upstairs for dinner and had a great meal with fantastic service. Finished the night back in the rocking chairs at the fire pit. Great evening at this gem of a restaurant!

Excellent as always. We had the butchers cut (hanger steak), muscles with the white wine sauce and ratatouille. It was the perfect meal for my wife and I to share. Great drinks and excellent service.
