Food and service was as good as always. Loved the beef short ribs. The food came faster than the last time I was there, wouldn't complain.

The food was delicious as always. I haven't been for a while and am wondering why not!! My favorite Strawberry and Spinach salad is still on the menu, so I was very pleased. Meals were very quick and staff very friendly.

Great food! Great customer service! Free take home container because the serving size is generous. Hard to choose between the Hurricane or Buffalo wings since they're both great.

Fantastic food and fantastic service. I couldn't recommend The Smoke BBQ enough to anybody that loves authentic tasting American BBQ. David and his staff make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in and the experience doesn't change throughout your time there. We will back!

Been here before and was excellent. Admittedly, that was a long time ago. This time the food was average, barely any sauce on the ribs and was extremely over priced! $70.00 for two people sharing one meal + 2 beers. Had better ribs at the Breky Creek hotel at half the price. Staff however were excellent.

Awesome experience, sensational BBQ flavors with every bite, meat so tender chewing is an option. Home made sauces that leave you guessing the ingredients. Service above and beyond with a relaxed atmosphere.

The Thanksgiving Feast that we were served was to die for. The turkey was tender and moist and the mash and gravy should be apart of their normal menu! We will definitely be going back!

The food is always excellent quality, especially the ribs and the sauces. It is consistently a good experience and satisfying meal. The only downside is the how increasingly expensive the place has become within the past few years. Serving sizes have been halved on items such as the Ribs and prices have doubled which makes it more difficult to regularly visit, which is a shame considering the quality of the meals.

The chips were good. Everything else was garbage. The brisket was tough and did not have one single bit of smoke ring on it. It did not taste at all like it was smoked. The ribs were tough and dry. Everything was drenched in bbq sauce, probably to cover up the fact that it wasn’t smoked. I had high hopes and was very much let down.

Absolutely no smokey flavour what so ever on the ribs, which was suppose to be the signature dish. More spices and smokey flavour would have turned it into a great experience!

The food is absolutely amazing. Meat tender and well flavoured. Chicken moist and perfect. Salad fresh. Chips coated in something crazy good. Try the cee-gars as a starter, they were amazing. 2 person indoor Tables a little too close together. Tables themselves are small. Not very good for dates. Very hard to have a conversation without being listened in on. Could hear every word from the table next to us. Be better with a larger group. We will try an outdoor table next time for even a small amount of privacy. Otherwise perfect

Food was great as always. Though prices are getting a bit steep, I think prices must have increased by 10% to 15% since my last visit earlier this year. Its a pity a number of the menu items - pork ribs, lamb ribs and Blue Moon beer were not available.

The pork belly is the best I have had, the meat off the ribs pulled off with a fork. The food here is off the hook good and the staff are friendly. It's my go to place to take friends to impress
