Most people like the Cuban Cafe because it is family owned and operated and not just another chain restaurant. Oh, they have good Cuban food, too! Only .4 miles from River Resting Place.

We enjoy Reagan's because they take care of their customer. They are very family oriented. They have a buffet if you are in a hurry. The buffet isn't grand, but it has the basics and they keep it stocked. Reagan's is very busy during the "in season", so they must be doing something right. They have been in business many, many years. Reagan's only serves breakfast. There are two locations in Pigeon Forge and the closest one is .3 miles from River Resting Place.
