Food was delicious, the staff was attentive (thanks Lauren), great atmosphere, decent prices. Fries were crispy without being hard, the burger was perfectly cooked and juicy. Pretzel bun was very good.

We are from Ohio and were in the area to look at a truck. Asked the salesman at Monster Motors if there was any good non chains restaurants near by and he recommended Rocky Top. Ironically, my husband is a TN Vols fan, so that was a bonus Food was A-Mazing!! If we were ever in that area, we would definitely go back!!

Just get the wings. Thank me later. I highly recommend the garlic parmesan. They also have some of the best onion rings around town.

Kristen our waitress was so nice and helped us decide on our order selections since we were from out of town. The wings and chicken tenders were incredible. My dad said his burger was delicious too.

Was in town for personal matters and needed a bite to eat. Found this place on Google maps and thought 'BBQ? Yes please!' - ordering was easy, just called and spoke to a lovely and polite lady over the phone. Showed up and was directed to the bar to pick up my food. Speaking of, food was wonderful. Mac and cheese was so creamy. Pulled pork was mouthwatering and the additions were great as well, especially the cornbread and country butter. I don't remember reading that on the menu so that was a nice surprise! Would absolutely come back.

I have been a competitive pit smoker, from Tennessee. The food was as good as you can get from a restaurant that bulk cooks. Very good with a great smoke flavor. Awesome service.

This was our first time here and we definitely will be back. Got a full pan of wings well done/extra crispy and they were honestly the best wings I've ever had in my life, and I'm VERY picky with wings. We also got the jalapeño poppers as an app and those were equally as good! Also had wonderful service!!

Incredible smoked wings, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. We love this place. They have the best in-house sauces. Second time we tried the pork dinner and that was delicious as well.
