Great BBQ but supply doesn't meet demand
3 Star Rating: Average

01/13/2008 Posted by popoaks

The caveat up front is that we wish we could give this 5 stars: great BBQ, yummy mac and cheese (and fries and baked beans...) and wonderful service from a team you can tell cares about their shop and their customers. We vowed every Sunday would be barbeque night after we found Smoque, but just hung up the phone at 7pm--two hours before they close--for the second week in a row having been told they are out of all meat except chicken and ribs. Baffling to us that a barbeque house would run out of food so often (we have met the sign on the front door more than once announcing they were similarly out of brisket and pork) and we hope that their demand planning gets better before we find another place. Please, please, please work on it!

Pros: Great food, great people

Cons: Great food that isn't always available

Editor's Review

A casual, elbows-on-the-table kind of joint that dishes out barbecue in all of its smoky, tangy, saucy, dry-rubbed goodness.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Parking

A lot in back is available for Smoque customers. Easy street parking is another option if the lot is full.
