    This restaurant has been out of menu items the last two times we have been there. It's one thing to be out of one item or so, but multiple items at 6:00 or 7:00 pm seems like really bad planning. It would have been nice to know before we ordered drinks that there were menu issues. Service was attentive but very slow. Since we had suggested Smoke to the group of friends we were with, we were pretty embarrassed. We will not be back.

    This restaurant was highly recommended to take out of town visitors - for both the true Texas flavor & feel. Our experience was not great & could have been better if the waiter was more hospitable & knowledgeable of the menu. He was unable to make good recommendations and keep our glasses full. The place was not busy, but remained very loud. The fried brussell spouts were great, but the bbq was either very dry or all fat. We will not recommend or return.

    we dined here on fathers day for brunch, Wait staff was non existent when we arrived for our 11:30 reservation. we ended up being seated & waited upon by the bartender. We told him we had an opentable reservation but he did not know how to use the system. We later told the host who arrived later but have not yet been credited with our reservation! The Bartender did his best to serve us but the food was mediocre at best & he credited several of our plates. I have never left a negative review before but after reading the previous reviews it is well deserved!

    Poor service - and you really need to get a wine selection.

    It all started when we walked in. We had a 5:15 PM RSVP, but were told it would be 20-30 minutes before we would be seated because they did not have enough servers scheduled. So we went to the bar to order drinks and wait. While we were in the bar, the bartender was knocking back shots of Jameson with another guest. We ordered a couple of pints of beer, but were told that they did not have any pint glasses clean. So, we ordered bottles instead. After 25 minutes, we were seated and handed a single page menu with about 4 options on it. It simply said special menu and listed about 7 items (3 apps, 3 entrees, 1 family feast). We ordered deviled eggs (which were out) brisket quesadilla (no brisket present) and tater tots (good enough). Food arrived in a timely manner but quesadilla only had cheese and no brisket. Server said they were out of brisket (at 6:00 PM???), no reduction of the bill was offered. We then ordered the combo plate and the poblano corn chowder and salad plate. The combo plate came with none of the items that were listed on the menu. Menu said it had pulled pork, brisket, ribs. What we got was two slices of bacon, 2 small disks of sausage, and one chicken leg, served with cream corn and mashed potatoes. Server said that they were out so this is what was now being served on the combo plate. Food was nearly inedible. We cannot recommend this place. Poorly run, badly managed, and the worst part is the food. Staff was pleasant enough...but I now understand why the bartender was knocking back shots. If I had to work under those conditions, I would be drinking too!!

    I have never walked out of a restaurant after ordering food until Saturday. The picture attached is supposed to be a quarter pound of brisket. The waiter hadn't come by for more than 10 minutes after we sat down, so another waiter took our drink order. When he did bring the drinks, we ordered corn bread and a jar of pickles. There were no ribs at 6:30 on a Saturday evening, which he didn't tell us until after he'd placed our order with the kitchen. Remember the cornbread and pickles? Didn't come... Food showed up in pieces , and we had NO silverware. THEN the cornbread showed up, and it was burnt on top. The pickles never came at all. We finally got the manager, and settled up and walked away from the table, without ever having touched our food, because we never got any silverware. OH, and the décor was literally falling apart. 2 large boards fell off when our waiter leaned against the wall.
