The Applewood is a great place to eat. I had become "restaurant shy" after having a few bad experiences in Gatlinburg. As I went into the Applewood, I asked a man if the food was good and he opened a to-go box and showed me his leftovers. It was pork loin and looked so good. I went inside and ordered the pork and it was the best I had ever eaten. Better than my own. The menu said it was grilled over apple wood but it tasted more like it was marinated in apple cider. My friend had the country fried steak and it was crispy but not greasy. The meal was my favorite in this city and I recommend this restaurant. The prices were reasonable and portions were large.
Pros: Clean, On-site parking, Friendly staff
Cons: May have to wait
