Clifftop Restaurant - Anakeesta Mountain

Here we are in Gatlinburg, Tennessee once again. This time, we are high atop the city, landing atop Anakeesta mountain. On the mountain there are many options of activities including rides and attractions, apparel shops, and of course restaurants. Today's offering brings us to the Clifftop Restaurant. 

After touring the mountain for several hours, Patty and I were hungry and ready for dinner. It seemed Clifftop was beckoning us to enter. And we dd.  

We were greeted and brought to a table with an incredible view of the mountainside. Did I say incredible? Yes, yes I did. 

In a minute or two, our waitress returned and took our dinner selections. For starters I ordered the fried cheese balls with marinara sauce. As you can see above, there was plenty of cheese balls. I didn't count them but lets say plenty of them. 

And they were very tasty, hot. At this point I was satisfied as well as Patty. The marinara sauce might i say was zesty. A very good start for dinner indeed.

My dinner choice was a bacon cheeseburger with french fires and a diet Coke. As you can see above, the portions were very generous. 

The burger was well done and plentiful. And let me say, it did not disappoint. The burger was well done and very tasty. The American cheese along with the bacon strips (Three of them) completed the burger. It was very tasty. 

As for the french fries. Plentiful, well cooked, and the taste, well, very good. And the price? Very affordable. And the experience? Very excellent my friends. 

By the way, this is where we sat. To our left was the amazing view of Anakeesta mountain.
