Calhoun's in PF is in a beautiful building and has very efficient staff. Calhoun's may have the nicest atmosphere in PF for a restaurant. Our server was very good, and very friendly. We tried the ribs, baked potato and fried pickles. The ribs were good, the potato was very good but, we prefer the fried pickles from the Blue Moose... more

My family ate dinner on our first night in Pigeon Forge here. The service was excellent and very attentive. They bring you a basket of corn muffins/biscuits/rolls to the table. The butter is already on the table so you don't have to worry about asking for more. We had as an appetizer the white beer cheese dip and it was... more

We have tried this restaurant twice, first time was ok, second time was worse! We got seated after a short wait and had to ask if we had a server. No one wanted to wait on my husband I and my 3 year old hungry son. Poor service when we finally had a server. Once we got our food we... more

Went to Calhoun's in Pigeon Forge on our first night. Restaurant was busy, but we didn't have to wait. Me and my husband split the half rack of ribs with chicken wings and my 5 year old got the kids chicken tenders which she loved. While our food was good, the title of "Best ribs in America" is disputable. I... more

If ever you get a chance to eat here, you should. I ate at the one in Gatlinburg, but I am sure that they are equally good. The first time I ate here and every time after that I get the Ale Steak. It is marinated with spices and topped off with worchestershire butter. It practically melts in your mouth.... more

We visited Calhoun's on our first night in Pigeon Forge as it was right next door to our hotel. It was raining and we didn't want to go far. I had overheard someone recommend them earlier in the day to another visitor. So we decided to give it a try. Their was a bit of a wait, but it was... more
