This was our first time to eat here, and we were not disappointed! Robert M, our server, was very helpful and attentive. The food was great. I ordered a half rack of ribs, and they were delicious. I couldn’t finish them all but that’s because...it might’ve been a half rack plus! I tried a bite of what my parents ordered and was impressed with their orders of shrimp and grits and a burger respectively. Bottom line, this is a fantastic choice for dining in the Pigeon Forge area! Ask for Robert M, he’s a good fella!More

First of all supporting local business means so much to me. 99% of what is sold here is grown and made here. An added bonus is how wonderful the food tastes!! The onion rings are huge, the burgers are enormous, and the coconut shrimp was...terrific! We love this place and recommend it all the time. This visit was even better because Ashley A. took care of us. She made sure we had everything we needed before we even asked.More

We stopped for a bite after a day in Gatlinburg. Mellonie was very friendly and helped us decide what to eat. The burgers were excellent, the sides were also excellent and the bread pudding was to die for. Glad we went at the beginning of...our trip so we can go back again!!!More

The Local Goat was the highlight of our recent trip to Pigeon Forge. Our waitor’s name was Squirrel and he was a delight! Took great care of us. We ordered the Deep Fried Deviled Eggs and they were excellent. I got the Fish & Chips...and hubby got the Jackson Hole burger. All was fantastic! Highly recommend!! We sat with a view to the kitchen door and we enjoyed watching all the dishes that came out of there. Everything looked so good! We saw some things we definitely want to try on our next visit.More

There hamburgers were one of the freshest burgers I've had. Very flavorful and actually cooked to medium as requested. Alexis our server was very knowledgeable about each item on the menu, very attentive on keeping our drinks filled, and friendly. It's hard to find restaurants...in this area that have a 4+ rating. I would definitely go back in our next visit.More

We went with friends who live locally. We were visiting from out of town and asked to eat at a great local restaurant. Their immediate response was The Local Goat. We were not disappointed! Our server, Mary, was stellar in her service of our table...and the food was delish. We walked out very satisfied with our experience. Five star all the way around!More

We’re local & eat here often. Best restaurant hands down in PF. We went for st. Patty’s day w-e to try the new food & it was delicious! I’d like to see the egg rolls on the menu. I could make a meal out of...them & the deviled eggs. The staff as usual from the front to the back was kind & knowledgeable. We had Alyssa today & she was great! Even though we get a discount we always tip on full bill. Be kind to your servers. They work hard & it shows the staff is top priority with the owners. Their performance, smiles & great attitudes show that.More

This is our go to place when we come to Pigeon Forge. It's consistent and tasty! Elvis burger, whiskey burger, farmhouse burger and coconut shrimp were delicious.

Our Airbnb host recommended Local Goat. She was right-it was delicious! My daughter said it was the best burger she's ever had (pimento burger). I had the goat cheese burger and it was so delicious. Fried deviled eggs are also a must! It's on the...Parkway in Pigeon Forge so plan for traffic.More

Had an excellent experience, they said it was a 20 to 25 min wait to get seated but were seated in about 10. Our server was Kyle. He was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the menu and super friendly. He took the time to get to...know us. Food was excellent. Had the TN whiskey glazed burger, and pimento cheese cheeseburger. All the food was excellent and prepared to our taste. All made fresh in house from local sourced ingredients.More
