Bearden Hill Restaurants

When you get close to the Smoky Mountains, you begin to smell the aroma of hometown country cooking. Bearden Hill, on the west side of Knoxville, has plenty of buttermilk fried chicken and barbecue ribs. Platters with hush puppies and corn on the cob are practically staples in the "Marble City." All along Kingston Pike, you'll find other restaurants as well. If you like Italian or French cuisine, then you can dine in style while eating chicken parmesan or Provencal bouillabaisse. Bistros, cafeterias and Neapolitan-style pizza parlors all share this Eastern Tennessee neighborhood. Craft beer is a specialty in Bearden Hill; you might enjoy sipping it as you play billiards or darts at a local game room.
