Absolutely love Jason Aldean and that he stands up for what he believes. His wife is amazing too. I first heard Jason Aldean live as he opened for someone else in Tampa. He was better than the headliner!
cousin Eddie has talked to Jason Aldean on the phone a few times, cause Eddie is a musician, I told him if you get to go hang out with Jason Aldean sometime, don't forget to take your favorite cousin with you lol, his song Don't try that in a small town was very to the point of how small town folks look out for one another, you should have a listen, I think you would agree with the lyrics actually, patriotic and those who did not like it did not even bother to learn what it was actually saying
Was an awesome space brother. Much of the crew came in from Nashville for the opening. Mentioned you guys when talking to management. Thanks as always!
We will be there at the end of this month. Although we weren't planning on coming into gatlinburg because we only have 2 days, we may now to check this out. Love jason aldean.
Don't feel bad about not knowing his songs, I didn't know Jason Aldean was a musician until this video, lol. Great review, loved the national anthem and toast they did. Thanks!
WOWWW !!! Great food review ! Food looked AWSOME ! The place is Kool, but I don't know country music & have never heard of this guy. Grew up on Rock & Roll. Y'all are the best family example for everyone else to model after !!!
We ate at the one in Nashville yesterday for lunch. We almost got the Buffalo cauliflower and after seeing y’all’s, we wish that we would’ve tried it. The pot roast looked really good and we’re with you on not liking that style of green beans - we call them the fancy style of green beans. JA’s looks like it will be a big hit for Gatlinburg. Excellent video guys!
Brittany raved about the cauliflower! We were talking to one of the managers that came from the Nashville location about you guys and nerds. Thanks so much for watching!
Best way to describe Jason Aldean's music ... he's one of the originators of "Bro Country." Almost every song includes one of the following words: Dirt Road, Back Road, Tailgate, Moonlight, Ridin' Shotgun, Pickup Truck, Beer.
Eric buddy y'all gotta get into Jason Aldean lol, he's a great guy and stands up for his beliefs. Food looked awesome. You guys have a beautiful family man. Keep it up and stay safe as always
I looked him top while editing lol. Found that "Dirt Road" song and recognized the hook! Someone else had commented about his values as well. Thanks so much for watching!
That food looks good especially the Pot Roast. Love how the kids behind you were waving and laughing as you were talking about your food. Keegan is always so funny when she changes her rating. Some food you order just doesn't sit well like other food does. But this is one more place to add when I come back to the area on vacation. I got to say that national anthem on the guitar was awesome. I can just imagine the crowd down there for the 4th of July weekend.
I didn't even notice them waving until I was editing lol. Loved, loved, loved the national anthem! Yeah pretty packed down here this weekend. Thanks always Frank!
The Sun Diner next door is really good too. We went there because all the popular places were packed. I heard someone say Jason Aldean owns this place as well..thanks for the video!
I learned of "Jason Aldean" through the news about the Las Vegas mass disaster. Not much of a country music fan. Give me some 70's and 80's rock and I'm in! Have a lovely Fourth of July, Smoky Mountain Family!
I was cracking up because I also can't name any Jason Aldean songs and I also wouldn't recognize him in a lineup but I am always down for some good food and their menu looks amazing. Thanks for the review!
I enjoyed your review and especially your sweet family! I just visited Gatlinburg, but this restaurant wasn't open yet. Thank you for sharing with us. Go Jason Aldean ❤!
Hahaha! I love watching you guys. I was thinking that Ya'll not knowing who Jason Aldean is out there is like moving to Compton and having no clue who NWA is 😂 Got a laugh over it. Great review though. Hoping to get out there soon 🤘
Guilty as charged lol. Never really listened to much country, especially the newer variety. It's a great spot though. We had an awesome experience without knowing anything about the artist. Would have been more hype for a NWA Kitchen and Rooftop Bar lol. Thanks so much for watching!
@@SmokyMountainFamily haha bro I totally get it. Looking forward to your "Kid Rock's Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse" review if you get out to Nashville 🤣
@TheSmokyMountainFamily it totally is. I'm out in AZ but I had some clients out in Nashville bragging about its greatness. Probably worth a shot homie 😁
We will have to give that place a try when we come to the Smokies here soon....the food looks good... thanks for the review...glad it's finally open... ☺️ 👍
Will be down in October..plan on doing Trillium up the lodge ...Trillium and Boulevard are the only 2 trails I need to complete all the trails to the lodge..
Boulevard is nice. There’s a little side trail not far from the AT on Blvd called the jump off. I think the Brit’ views are better than those from Charles bunion. If it’s early in the day when you pass it definitely take it. Adds a mile but so worth it.
Great review! We're not "bar" people, but this is definitely a place we'll check out when we visit in September! I love how the bar and restaurant is separate, but yet you can hear the music and not be overwhelmed by it. Looks like great food and I love the atmosphere!
You didn’t miss it, apologies. The sauce was a little of both. If you e had the pot roast at the apple barn restaurant it was much like that, just a bit thicker. Thanks as always!
This is so cool. Reminds me of his bar in Nashville on the strip. Brittney is right, kinda like an elevated Hard Rock Cafe. Food presentation was on point. Glad to hear the pot roast was good.
Absolutely love that Carmelcorn spot. Our favorite place to get it in the area. We are actually here everyday as we moved to Gatlinburg a couple years ago! Thanks so much for watching!
Great video. I was curious on how it would turn out there. Don't know anything about Jason Aldean other then he is a country singer but it looks really nice in there. And the food didn't look to bad.
We weren't using a microphone so the camera was picking up a lot of ambient noises that sounded louder in the recording. In real time it wasn't that loud. Thanks again!
This is an accurate take in our experience. Food was better here than our experiences at Old Red. Also a more laid-back vibe here. Thanks as always guys!
Didn't lose me!! I'm a subbie #4life!!!! I'm riiiiiightttt there with ya Eric!! But if you want me to find the picture of 2pac, or name a RUN DMC song.... I'm your girl🤣🤣🤣🤣. That place was cool AF!! ❤ y'all!! Julz P.S. Joey is blooming into a beautiful girl inside and out. I see you Joey!!
videobombing at it's best, lol. To bad they don't know they are YT stars now. :D This place seems to have started on a very positive note, hope they do well. Thanks family. Happy 4th.
Hey, my name is Trey and me my wife and our two best friends are coming up to Gatlinburg on September 1 through the fourth and I was hoping to meet you and your family because I think that you four are really cool and I want to be able to be in one of y’all’s Smoky Mountain family videos. It would really be a privilege and an honor please respond. Thank you.
Since you don’t know Jason Aldean is I’ll catch up overall he is controversial for a mainstream country music artist. He was one of the pioneers of the “bro country music” phase which for the traditional country music fans destroyed the genre for a decade with songs basically rock and rap just with country themes. From the politics side of things he supports a former president that many in the media don’t like. His wife is also outspoken on it and caught headlines with a shirt she was wearing as well as a public feud with another country artist. He is from North Georgia and known for being a big sports fan.
Seriously appreciate the info. Someone else had mentioned the situation in Las Vegas several years back and I did remember his name from that. Sounds like an interesting character. Thanks as always!
Absolutely love Jason Aldean and that he stands up for what he believes. His wife is amazing too. I first heard Jason Aldean live as he opened for someone else in Tampa. He was better than the headliner!
That's awesome! Thanks so much for watching!
Thanx for the review guys, we'll have to give JA's a try.
Definitely worth a try. Thanks as always Bob!

Happy 4th to your wonderful family.Stay Safe,Have fun,...And God Bless America.
Happy 4th to you and yours Karen!
We just got here Saturday night. Here for the week staying in Gatlinburg. Thanks for the heads up. We will definitely check out the food!
Great timing! Thanks so much for watching!
Ask for dave!!! Aka american meatman lol 🤣
Awesome thanx for sharing
Thanks so much for watching!
Filming and editing were so good.
Thanks so much Bob! Great place to film!
Looks like a great place to relax and enjoy looking out at the strip with some good food! Thanks for the inside look and showing us around!!
Being able to look out at the strip is a big plus here. Must say this spot exceeded our expectations! Thanks so much for watching!
2 10s, def gotta try this place. Love the national anthem part as well, great views from the seats too.
Was an awesome space brother. Much of the crew came in from Nashville for the opening. Mentioned you guys when talking to management. Thanks as always!
We will be there at the end of this month. Although we weren't planning on coming into gatlinburg because we only have 2 days, we may now to check this out. Love jason aldean.
Gatlinburg was always a must for us when we vacationed here. Thanks again!
@@SmokyMountainFamily it usually is for us too, but with just 2 days this time I'm not sure. We will see.
Understand that for sure!
That pot roast looked good. I like soda in mason jars. Pulled pork…yum
The pot roast was excellent. Great all-around experience here! Thanks as always!
Can’t wait to check this place out!
Looks like a dope spot with some bussin grub. Can't wait to see the complete menu.
Wow that was quick..now all you need is a cowboy hat, Eric
I love hats, just not sure about a cowboy hat lolol. Thanks as always Randy!
Don't feel bad about not knowing his songs, I didn't know Jason Aldean was a musician until this video, lol. Great review, loved the national anthem and toast they did. Thanks!
The national anthem was one of the first things I walked into, and it certainly set the mood for the rest of the night. Thanks so much for watching!
Food looks impressive ❤ we will put this on the list to try
Definitely should. Get a window seat! Thanks as always Kim!
Nice review thank you for sharing
Thanks so much for watching Lois!
Ty for the review. Always love seeing your beautiful family!
Garry! Thanks so much for watching brother! Appreciate it!

You are too kind King. Thanks so much. Good thing about this spot is you don't have to be a country music fan to enjoy it . Thanks again!
We will definitely be eating at his restaurant. I support him! 🇺🇲
It was a fun time

Definitely should. Great expense with food to match.

Oh my gosh that’s right!!! That was him performing there i forgot all about that. Happy fourth to you as well!
Looks like a good time!
Good seeing you guys good video❤
Thanks so much for watching!
I was cracking up because I also can't name any Jason Aldean songs and I also wouldn't recognize him in a lineup but I am always down for some good food and their menu looks amazing. Thanks for the review!
One thing is certain, you don't have to be familiar with him to have a great experience here! Awesome space with great energy! Thanks as always!
Me as well 🤷♀️
Great intro👍❤️🇺🇸 I already ❤ this place just because it has a John Deere tractor 🚜 😅 Thanks for sharing 🤗
It was awesome walking into the place right in time for that. Thanks as always Pamela!
I enjoyed your review and especially your sweet family! I just visited Gatlinburg, but this restaurant wasn't open yet. Thank you for sharing with us. Go Jason Aldean ❤!
Thanks so much! Definitely a spot to check out on your next visit!
The food looked great, especially the buffalo cauliflower. I would give that a try for sure. Thanks as always for the review.
Thanks so much Kim. Brittany loved the cauliflower!
this is a great review ,the food looked great
Thanks so much, Frank. Both the food and experience were on point!
@@SmokyMountainFamily thank you ,i love your site ,great job
Hahaha! I love watching you guys. I was thinking that Ya'll not knowing who Jason Aldean is out there is like moving to Compton and having no clue who NWA is 😂 Got a laugh over it. Great review though. Hoping to get out there soon 🤘
Guilty as charged lol. Never really listened to much country, especially the newer variety. It's a great spot though. We had an awesome experience without knowing anything about the artist. Would have been more hype for a NWA Kitchen and Rooftop Bar lol. Thanks so much for watching!
@@SmokyMountainFamily haha bro I totally get it. Looking forward to your "Kid Rock's Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse" review if you get out to Nashville 🤣
Tell me this isn't a real place. lol
@TheSmokyMountainFamily it totally is. I'm out in AZ but I had some clients out in Nashville bragging about its greatness. Probably worth a shot homie 😁
I'm with y'all. I can't name one song but I lived the review and I'll give them a try.
I ate at Jason's in Nashville, and it's awesome. The fried peach cobbler is awesome.
Can't wait to try it
We want to go back when there is a full menu and see what all they have to offer. Thanks so much for watching!
We will have to give that place a try when we come to the Smokies here soon....the food looks good... thanks for the review...glad it's finally open... ☺️ 👍
They created a great space here Catherine. Definitely give it a visit! Thanks always!
Looked great! Another must try! Thanks for the review
Thanks so much STL! I just now realized you post content on your channel!
@TheSmokyMountainFamily yeah..I post some of the hikes I do when I go...not very good..I hate the sound of my voice..
Will be down in October..plan on doing Trillium up the lodge ...Trillium and Boulevard are the only 2 trails I need to complete all the trails to the lodge..
Boulevard is nice. There’s a little side trail not far from the AT on Blvd called the jump off. I think the Brit’ views are better than those from Charles bunion. If it’s early in the day when you pass it definitely take it. Adds a mile but so worth it.

This is a great design and makes it a good experience for diners and bar patrons alike Thanks so much for watching!
Looks really nice inside
I apologize if I missed it, but Eric what was the gravy or sauce on your pot roast savory or sweet? It looked amazing!!
You didn’t miss it, apologies. The sauce was a little of both. If you e had the pot roast at the apple barn restaurant it was much like that, just a bit thicker. Thanks as always!
@@SmokyMountainFamily No problem!! Thank you very much!! It looked amazing!!
This is so cool. Reminds me of his bar in Nashville on the strip. Brittney is right, kinda like an elevated Hard Rock Cafe. Food presentation was on point. Glad to hear the pot roast was good.
AMOS! It was a great experience. Beyond my expectations for sure. Thanks as always guys!
Everything looks good & sounds good 😊 It's nice to know they have an elevator to 🙂
Always a plus when there's a focus on accessibility. Thanks so much for watching!
@@SmokyMountainFamily Yes there is!!! I want to go back to Tennessee!!! Hope to see you all again soon down Tennessee 🙂
Do they have a lift for those that can't climb stairs?
They have the elevator that we showed in the video to take patrons with mobility issues to both upstairs floors. Thanks for watching.
Great job as always!! 🌄🐻🏞️
Thanks as always Hussey
Great review of the 'new kids in town'! 😊 And some fantastic shots of our popcorn store (Carmelcorn). Do you all come up every weekend?
Absolutely love that Carmelcorn spot. Our favorite place to get it in the area. We are actually here everyday as we moved to Gatlinburg a couple years ago! Thanks so much for watching!
Great video. I was curious on how it would turn out there. Don't know anything about Jason Aldean other then he is a country singer but it looks really nice in there. And the food didn't look to bad.
Really liked the way it all turned out. They did an excellent job planning out this space. Thanks as always!
@@SmokyMountainFamily Of course You're very welcome.
JMO but I hope that Gatlinburg doesn't become a Nashville in the mountains. LONG LIVE places like Fannie Farkles, Ripley's, the Mountain Mall, etc.
I concur. I like seeing new things come to town so long as it's not at the expense of the staples that make Gatlinburg special. Thanks as always!
The new intro and camera work is 🔥 🔥 🔥 we can’t wait to eat there!!
Thanks so much brother! They've made a great experience here!
Nice video! Happy 4th! 🇺🇸
Happy 4th!
Enjoyed seeing this. Don’t know if I’d spend that much time in the burg since I have walking issues
To me it sounds quite loud is it where you eating? Or are you seating near the band ?
We weren't using a microphone so the camera was picking up a lot of ambient noises that sounded louder in the recording. In real time it wasn't that loud. Thanks again!
The food looks so much better than Ole Red. Great video! It looks like a fun place!
This is an accurate take in our experience. Food was better here than our experiences at Old Red. Also a more laid-back vibe here. Thanks as always guys!
I've had a stroke and use a walker now do they have an elevator for the top floor
Yes indeed While I was filming on the 3rd floor there were individuals using wheelchairs there. Thanks so much for watching!
Hicktown big green tractor
Im going to guess this is an Aldean song reference right? Thanks so much for watching!
I’m surprised they don’t sell Barbie dolls at the gift shop there.
I'm sure this is funny but im going to need some reference on this lol. Thanks as always guys!
I’m with Britney on that cauliflower I’m
Glad the music is not on your face like you said nice review y’all on the new restaurant
Great design here makes for a great all-around experience. Thanks as always NDT!
Jason well known by most America loving mountain folk. Lol
Awesome! Love America, just not much on country music. Thanks for watching.
Great video with some good foods, but a little pricey 😊
The pot roast was great. Those prices are what we've come to expect on the strip in Gatlinburg. Thanks as always Danny!
@@SmokyMountainFamily th
Didn't lose me!! I'm a subbie #4life!!!!
I'm riiiiiightttt there with ya Eric!! But if you want me to find the picture of 2pac, or name a RUN DMC song.... I'm your girl🤣🤣🤣🤣.
That place was cool AF!!
❤ y'all!!
Julz
P.S. Joey is blooming into a beautiful girl inside and out. I see you Joey!!
Same! 90's hip-hop consumed my music experience coming up. But still, this was a very cool experience. They are growing up so fast!
Thats not bad for 4 people with apps and drinks.
That’s what we thought as well. Thanks so much for watching!
Recheck dive with bar food.
I think I've hit the wrong bars in the past lol. Never been to one that serves filet.
Eric, really enjoyed your video! Everyone's food looked so good! Brittany, I like Ole Red too! Jason's place is beautiful! Love y'all!❤️
Thanks so much Carla. Great energy in this place. If you like Old Red you would surely enjoy this spot!
@@SmokyMountainFamily you're welcome!
I hate crunchy green beans too yuck lol. Great review
Lol. yeah never been a fan either. Thanks as always!
videobombing at it's best, lol. To bad they don't know they are YT stars now. :D This place seems to have started on a very positive note, hope they do well. Thanks family. Happy 4th.
Happy 4th Marc! I didn't even notice it til a was editing. They did a good job here. Thanks as always brother!
Hey, my name is Trey and me my wife and our two best friends are coming up to Gatlinburg on September 1 through the fourth and I was hoping to meet you and your family because I think that you four are really cool and I want to be able to be in one of y’all’s Smoky Mountain family videos. It would really be a privilege and an honor please respond. Thank you.
Thanks so much for the kind words! Please feel free to shoot us an email!
Jason wasn’t even there on opening day?
This day was a soft open. Normally they designate a later date for a proper grand opening. Thanks so much for watching!
Nice, however these places and their prices are always extremely pricey!. 😊

He was one of the pioneers of the “bro country music” phase which for the traditional country music fans destroyed the genre for a decade with songs basically rock and rap just with country themes.

Seriously appreciate the info. Someone else had mentioned the situation in Las Vegas several years back and I did remember his name from that. Sounds like an interesting character. Thanks as always!
Oh no nas is not country. He did 1 song with billy ray cyrus and that didn't really get any airplay on country stations.
Lol. Very true.
Jason Aldean' s first wife and girls are from our area.
Not a fan of him.
There seems to be more folks than we first thought that don't like him or don't know much about him. Thanks for watching anyway!
Hard pass.
Food and experience was really good. Definitely worth a visit. Thanks for watching!
Can’t wait to check this place out!
Great experience here. Thanks as always Kathy!
