This used to be the best steak restaurant on the strip. We were disappointed our last time in. Service was slow and steak just wasn't anything to write home about More

Ordered one Ribeye and a New York Strip steak, medium. Both were tough, tasteless and full of gristle. Beautiful salad bar with smoked oysters and a great wait staff. The steaks were far below average. We suggest you dine elsewhere if you are looking for good beef. More

A table with a view of the river is nice; however, the food is of average quality. While I was not disappointed, I certainly expected more. Had steak with skewered vegetables. Salad bar is also very average; nothing special. I would think most people will find this restaurant acceptable. When I hear "steakhouse" my expectations are heightened. I heard that... More

A great place to dine in Gatlinburg. Amazing food, great views of the river. Dining at this place while in Gatlinburg is a must. I recommend the combo with a medium rare NY strip, blackend trout and grilled veggie skewers! This place never fails to impress. More

I'm very saddened and frustrated with my very first visit to The Peddler. After high recommendations from other people, I wanted to surprise my husband with a nice dinner. Well, we have been waiting OVER 3 HOURS for a table now after being told it would be a 2 hour wait. You need to take a CLOSE look at how... More

If you want a delicious steak and a very fresh salad bar, plus many other yummy food choices-you should dine at the Peddler. It is a little expensive, but you definitely get what you paid for. Go early to avoid long waits. You will love the Peddler! More

I was expecting a run-of-the-mill steakhouse when we decided on this for our nice dinner out, but I walked away having an amazing meal and an overall fantastic experience. We sat in the upstairs area in a "room" off of the bar. I definitely suggest this if your a foodie but also like the more casual atmosphere of a bar... More
