Nice restaurant.but if I paid for my dinner that meal belongs to me,I should be able to take home what i don't eat.
No you shouldn't be able to take it home because they only bring what can eat. They only bring what you can eat there.
I won't be going there now thank you for letting us know you can't take leftovers home. If I'm paying for the food I better be able to take home the leftovers.
You can take your dessert home...and don't order so much you can't eat it...
I am a bit concerned about the amount of food that is wasted in her restaurants by not being able to take home leftovers.
I go to Paula Deans everytime were in town ...i love it
My wife and I ate there last week. We asked about the left over food which we could not take with us. Our waiter said unfortunately it is thrown away. They should left the customers take it with them.
I just saw you can't take left overs home . That's crazy
Thank you for sharing your time and experience, the food looked so yummy, hope you had a wonderful time, take care, God bless
O I love watching you guys videos are so awesome to watch
WHAT DO THEY DO WITH THE LEFTOVERS ??? WHY CANT YOU TAKE IT HOME?? THEY CAN HAVE SOME KIND OF RULES SET IN PLACE THAT YOUR JUST NOT GETTING DISHES TO TAKE HOME WITH YOU...TOO MUCH WASTE !! BUT THE FOOD LOOKED GOOD ..I LOVE MY SWEET POTATOS TOO...GLAD YOU AND DAWN HAD A NICE TIME OUT !!😊🎃🍽🥧🧁🍧🥪🌮🍓🍈🍇🦢🐤🦜🐸🐦🐮🦄🦊
Because people order excessive food so they can take it home,so that's the reason for no takeout food
Love all the Christmas! Never too early!
Thank you looks wonderful
It was!
i bet pigeon forge gon get real busy with people coming there from the hurricane!! prayers for all those in its path.
I enjoyed seeing all the things for sale in the shop. That shop is much bigger than I remember on my last visit. Food looked much better than I remember. Cheers x
We almost ate there and sat down and then left when we were told we would not be able to take leftovers with us. I can’t imagine how a restaurant won’t let you take your leftovers that you paid for with you.
Knowing this I’d take a big empty purse and some plastic bags! 😂
You know when you eat at all you eat Buffet place you can't take a Doggy Bag home . You eat all you want there and leave the rest. If you can't eat that much food then don't eat at places like Paula Deen's that rude to say that about this restaurant.
@@barbaranorred1152 just so you know I was joking around. Sorry you took my comment seriously 😒
Looks great, but the fact that you can’t take leftovers home, just means food waste 😣. As a food service professional, that drives me crazy!! If you paid for it, you should be able to take it home!! N
I agree!! I despise wasting food😔
Thanks for Sharing Will and Dawn we haven't got to eat here yet everything Looks Delicious. Can't wait to try it soon. Love you hair Dawn. Love watching you Guys.
Thanks for your review of Paula Deen’s restaurant in Pigeon Forge. Because of it, we are planning on eating at Paula Deen’s at Myrtle Beach tomorrow!
Food is good, but not great. Cost is a little high for what they have. Glad you mentioned the drinks "Ridiculous" $3.50 should be included since the way you have to order. Would go to Old Mill instead. Very similar menu and go to the Paula Dean store in Gatlinburg. Little late on the salad. Thanks for the review.
Oh, wow!! The ride into New Hampshire is unbelievable!! I would never have thought that state was like that!! The tall falls were -- no words!!!!
Can't believe I have never eaten a hole meal there. Their pecan pie is wonderful! Love the video ❤️❤️
Good video, with lots of good foods..
We sat at the same table for Breakfast when we were there. Had dinner at her place in Branson. Food was amazing.
We ate lunch there few years back. 😋 must go very hungry. If you can't finish your meal you can't take it with you. No containers !
Been wondering if we should finally try Paula Deen's. Good to get your review of the food there.
Very nice assortment of items to buy!! The food looks good!! Thanks for sharing!!
I’ve been there a few times. Mostly good experiences, but did have a visit there where my wife and I did not like food that day. Maybe an off day? I just can’t get onboard with not letting people take home whatever food was already on the table. That creates a lot of unnecessarily wasted food, especially for the price you pay there. Take care my friends.
Thank you for mentioning you can't take home a doggie bag! (OK, why just dessert?? and why on earth not?) That is a deal-breaker for me considering all the food they give you. Leftovers the next day rock! Love all your adventures!
I agree , if I pay for it then it’s mine. They got the my money ! And I want
My food ! I’ve had stomach surgery
And can only eat about a cup of food at the time ! That’s very unfair to their patrons! I’m like you this is a deal breaker for me also !
I d go somewhere else. Very same reason card companies don’t give leftover cards away, someone will sell them at the flea market. No all you can eat restaurant lets you take home leftovers because people cheat and over order then want to take it all home.
Will be in Pigeon Forge in a few weeks…this is on our bucket list.
We have eaten there several times, the last time about a month ago. Have always found the food to be very good. Never a bad meal or experience. Thanks for your review - glad you enjoyed your meal. Dawn I love your Cafe Loveless tshirt - ate there in Nashville last month - great biscuits and Nashville hot chicken.
Does seem pricey but it was a lot of food and it looked delicious! Next time we get to Tennessee, we'll have to go there! Thanks Will and Dawn!
Good people and looks like some good food
Too bad my mom has passed. I would have LOVED to get the shirt with the stains on it and wear it around her. I can just hear her complaining about the stains and that I should give her the shirt immediately for her to get the stains out!!!! It would have been a great April Fools joke!!! Ha. The food looked really good today!! 💕💕
I'm so sorry to hear about your mom but yes that would've been a really good April fool's joke
I love views of beautiful PF island area. We wish go visit Paula Deen restaurant and store. ❤️
Great review!! We have a PD restaurant here that used to be buffet, but switched to family style. We will skip this since we have one, but your review was so thorough! Thanks!
Ate there many times and have always enjoyed it. We have also ate at her restaraunt in Savanah. We met her 2 sons at the Savanah location. Also love the Merchandise. Good job guys.
Will and Dawn, looks like interesting store and restaurant. Paula Deen cooks some good southern food. Looks yummy!
Everything looks so good! When you guys get a chance you need to go over to Jonesboro Tennessee to the kitchen at Grace Meadows. They are a family style restaurant similar to Paula Deen’s. It is a beautiful farm and the food is delicious!
We spent 2 days at the Island, Sunday and Monday this week! We ate at Timberwood grill and loved it. Paula Dean’s wasn’t a restaurant we had to try-have a small child who is picky.
we love eating there and my hubby loves the sweet potatoes I do too they r so light in taste.
👍 hope everyone is having a blessed day
I have been once and enjoyed both the food and gift shop!
Love Paula Deens!! We only go if we have several family/friends with us!! Thanks for sharing!!! God bless!!
We got to go there one time I love the store. And by the way the cat fish was delicious. And Dawn I like your hair that length
Yeah, I would have to take the dessert home too. That's a lot of food! lol!
Love Dawn’s hair. So pretty.
Look delicious 😋
Thanks for sharing your experience. It really looked good!
Looks good 😎👍
Thourghly enjoyed your Paula Deen's visit. Everything looked so good and nice. Always enjoy your videos. You are a sweet couple.
Thank you so much for your kind words Carol
I think that would be a great place to go to for Thanksgiving dinner and even though it’s on the high side with the cost of groceries today for a family of four or five it still might be a better deal. I did Thanksgiving for 22 years straight and always spent between two and $300 by the time I bought everything for about 10 people. Coming back for the Craftsmans fair! Might have to do Paula Deen‘s this time!
Go back to the basics when cooking a meal for a crowd. We stopped buying soda and make iced tea. We ask those who attend to bring an item.
Man that looks good!
Will and Dawn, really enjoyed your vlog! Everything looked so good! Wish I had a way to Paula Dean's Kitchen! Your desserts looked so yummy and delicious! Thank you for taking me along with you! Love y'all!❤️❤️
You two are soooo right! The food is delicious! The gift shop is great too! Thanks for the review!👍👍
I love ot! We had the same table view
Could tell how much Dawn loved the ribs and broccoli casserole by her reactions. Never seen her react to food like this so I knew it had to be good. Love you Dawn!!
Very nice Merch at Paula Deen's! What did you buy Dawn?? Your food looked delicious! I like your hair Dawn! I got mine cut similar to yours. Have a great week you two! 💚
That sweet potato butter is so good on warm biscuits or toast. I tried making the oowey gooey butter cake, and ended up with oowey gooey mess lol
Everything looked delicious, I would have a hard time deciding what to get because everything sounds so good 💕
It's colette and dean hi will and dawn we love that restaurant . It was fun watching the video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
We ate their when we went on vacation. Excellent food
When I was a child, I used to go to Gatlinburg with my parents, and I would always get a Smoky Bear. Great memory!
I would too that the first thing I always brought home was a Stuffed Bear.
i went with my sister my nicwes nephewinlaw great nephew went last year outber went to the Branson,mo downing to Paula,Deens ty for video
I went one time and I would go again, should I be in an area where they have them. I'm glad the broccoli casserole was good where you were. The one I had was really salty, but it could have just been that time and not normally. I think they should let you take home leftovers since they will be thrown away anyway. But, I'm guessing that since it is all you can eat that is why they do that.
We had mother's Day celebration there several years ago my children surprised me and the food was awesome it was so good
Food and Service always good there.
Love that place
Other buffet started take home your leftovers but it a pay what it weigh I definitely help cut down on waste and she get to make extra!!
I love the fall decor. My favorite time of year.
Just love you guys! We visited Three Bears General Store when we were on vacation last summer because of your fun video! We love The Island!
Thank you so much Candy we love you too
Been Twice. Both experiences were Amazing.
DAWN YOUR HAIR IS SO CUTE I LOVE IT!!
Thank you so much Lucy
Ate in that very restaurant 2 years ago. Myself and the three people with me were not impressed. They have since built one in Branson, maybe after a few years I'll try again.
My family and I ate there once. We did not know that you had to tell them in advance that you wanted to take the desserts home. Our desserts were brought to our table and when we said we wanted to take it with us we were told we could not because they had already brought it to our table. The waiter was not clear on the fact we had to say we wanted it to go. So needless to say be sure you tell them you want it to go before the waiter walks away from the table to get to desserts. Over all the food we ordered was good.
I'm not going to eat there, the prices are too high %
I am watching hungry so my mouth is watering. Mmmm. So good
Love all the Christmas items. Christmas is a special time of year.
You are sitting at the same table we sat at
Great view 👌
I love Dawn's reactions!!!! Thank you both for all y'all do!!
Yes, Dawn's definitely not a poker player 😅
@@Tony-5000 Never!!!
Great view! All the food looked delicious! Now I'm hungry! Thanks for sharing.
That looked so good, not sure why you can't take home your leftovers, but still looked good.
We just got back from the smokies and our experience with Paul's deens want that great. The mac and cheese was so dry you couldn't eat it and so was the broccoli and cheese. The fried chicken was ok and the meatloaf was ok (just ok, my wifes food puts it to shame). The corn was very Delicious and the mashed potatoes were good also. The service was lacking especially since they weren't very busy. Just my experience. Everyone told me how great it was and honestly it wasnt. We will try it again next time because everyone has an off day every now and then.
Totally agree! My cooking is better than that. It’s not her recipes. Best thing there is biscuits.
@@gingershay8535 Totally agree not very good at all!! 2 hour wait and totally disappointed. The ribs and chicken and dumplings were terrible most of the food had no flavor the only thing that was good was the green beans.
We must have been there at the same time. Most the food was ok but that was about it. They did bring us a lot. The wait time was more like two hours. When we finely got to go upstairs we had to wait against the wall for another 15 to 20 minutes before we got seated. The place was packed and super loud.
I think hubby and I will try this place next time.
One of our favorite places in the Smokies to eat ty for sharing your thoughts sledgehammered that like button stay safe awesome and blessed sharing out full watch
I have been there before, it has always been delicious !!! You guys made me hungry !!! Thank you 😊 💓
We haven't here yet.
Love that you don't mind showing all the tables of stuff in the gift shop! You we're getting into that lol. Also love how throughly you covered this restaurant experience at Paula Dean's. The food looked great! Thanks Will and Dawn 😊 I can see you with that chicken shirt Dawn stay back or I'll peck you😂🐔 so funny.
I was just thinking the same thing...so very thorough..I love that about you all .we are planning on moving to East Tenn within next year...love you guys
Wow that seemed like a great price for that restaurant...I was at the one in Savannah ... I love following you guys ..*KEEP UP THE GREAT FILMING* 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
great place to eat at
I'm sorry but if l pay almost $60.00 Bucks for a meal, and l want to take some of it home for later, and they tell me "You can't take it home"..I'd reply "Oh, so the meal is free"? and they'd say "No", I'd say "if l pay for this meal, it belongs to me, and l will either take it home...or the meal is on the house and you can keep it"😐
Love the broccoli casserole
awesome vid go tenn
Apple Butter is a breakfast staple in the south yum yum
While it may be considered pricey for a couple, it is a great value for a family. Kids are discounted based on age and it is all you can eat so go with an appetite. If you're looking for just a quick bite or a small meal, this isn't the place for that. She used to have a sandwich shop on the Island, but I think it closed during the pandemic. I didn't see it last time I was there this summer.
I've not been there. The food looks good. Can't wait to get back to the Mountains. I enjoy y'alls video's. Bless you both. Take care n stay safe. ❤ ❤
One of my favorite restaurants in Pigeon Forge. Those biscuits are better than Red Lobster’s! Loved the spare ribs.
we eat at one in nashville n the waitress let us take our desserts home, thought the mac n cheese was dry, catfish is amazing!! but i love the chicken!
My husband and I have never tried Paula Deens before! I will put it on the list of restaurants we need to try next time we are in Tennessee!! I am a southern girl at heart and thanks for the video!!
So fun going with you for yummy cookin! Yay you got your salad !
All looked delicious!👍❤️
Love the retro Christmas decorations
Thanks 😊 will and Dawn
The store looks really beautiful ❤️... And your food looks scrumptious too . I'm planning on fixing japanese chicken this evening..we love that too... Thank you for sharing ☺️☺️
Very cool 😎 decorations
We went there on our Anniversary it was delish , I don't remember pork chops.
