We really enjoyed this place. We dropped in on a busy Friday night. We were seated right away at the bar. I was really impressed with the service and the hard working staff.
We got to watch the bartender make all kinds of amazing cocktails. I wasn't partaking but I really wanted an Old Fashioned because it looked so good!
The food was really great. I had never had pork cheeks before, but I definitely will again. So tender and flavorful. I had the greens and mac and cheese. So yummy. I only regret we were too full to try the pot de creme. It looked great.
I enjoyed the decor and atmosphere with the funky paintings from someone's grandparent's house. Cool place.
Excellent atmosphere. Exceptional service. I went with the pulled pork poutine. It was basically like the univers opened up and said "Nick we want you to taste what Nirvana is like". Even thinking about it now is making my tongue hard!
The only slight off put the dish had was when I chose to have a large bite of the darkened pork. It was so smokey in flavor that it over powered the curd and gravy in that bite. I corrected this issue by adding a splash of BBQ to my plate and it was perfect!!!
The food here is fantastic whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner you are after. For brunch the brisket Benedict with smoked hollandaise is must. The deviled eggs with hotlink are perfection. If you've got an appetite I recommend the pitmaster. Their collards are some of the best in town. The shells and cheese paired with the toasted cornbread crumbles adds a caramel flavor to a usually fully savory dish.
I had the ribs and fries. The ribs aren't the tender, fall-off-the-bone style. That's not good or bad--just the type. They are delicious. The fries have a crispety crunchy coating that I love. The place has a great interior, and the service is friendly.
Amazing smokehouse! They have a great offering of smoked everything. Plus they have happy hour until 5:00 PM every day- ALL DAY happy hour MONDAY! AMAZING smoked pulled pork sandwich, and their happy burger is 2 large burger patties, double decker! Free parking lot.
Best wings so far on a wing-week crawl. Big flavor! Not as hot as advertised, don't worry.
Food was pretty excellent, and going during happy hour allowed us to take advantage of some nice specials, including some unique starters. However, when it came to the main course, the serving of pork was a little light, as compared to the brisket. Biggest complaint was that the menu has sweet tea on it, but they don't actually have sweet tea - they have unsweetened iced tea that they'll add sweetener to after the fact. Not the same thing, and kind of a big deal if you're trying to be a real BBQ place. Overall, though, I like the blend of traditional BBQ with a modern, hipster twist.
Fantastic barbecue and a full bar. We had delicious pulled pork, scrumptious ribs, and tasty brisket. The poutine was amazing too. The fries were crispy and tasty, the coleslaw was very good as well. Everything was well prepared and the server was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Wonderful meals.
Just do it. Get the BBQ sampler, you'll be a better person for it!.
The ambience is nice and cozy. Awesome staff. The delicious smell of smoke staining the decor...
The drinks were done right, and the brisket was some of the best I've had in my life, hands down.
We got the 4 meat/4 side family meal. Everything was delicious, but the smoked salmon was like nothing I've ever had before. You know when food is so good you just can't talk for a moment? As each of us tried the salmon that's how it was, mid-sentence, "wow, this salmon!" Anyway, it's great. We got pp, brisket, salmon and ribs. Sides: green, beans, cole slaw and mac salad. I detected a bit of the polish restaurant in some of the sides-- the beans aren't the sickly sweet American version, they were all more on the vinegar side, which I like. BBQ sauce was smoky and super flavorful.
Taco Tuesday begins at 5pm. People gather outside the Smokehouse Tavern's door for the 5pm opening. No wonder! This was my first visit to the Tavern. I didn't know what to anticipate. A bit after 5 the door opened, the line queued to the bar where appetizers, tacos, beer, amazing margaritas and soft drinks were ordered. Small groups and couples took seats at shared tables. Then, my elderberry and mint margarita and a generous guacamole appetizer were served. Later, my tacos arrived and I was having fun. I must emphasize the Tuesday fare: tacos. I had ordered both a smoked pork belly taco and an octopus taco. These unique tacos were great! My photos show you their presentation. I'd been told to expect a good time. I was not disappointed. There was the opportunity to share great food, enjoy the company I was with, and do a bit of people watching. Tables emptied and those who had arrived later began their "Taco Tuesday".
Food is really great! The pulled pork poutine is beyond delicious and gigantic. I was able to stuff a few bites of the molasses corn bread into my face before we gave up but it was worth it! The staff are great too and we are treated like old friends every time we go.
