If you’re a meat lover you will probably love it here. The meals are very hearty. I can do with or without meat which is probably why I didn’t love it. I was hoping one of the sauces would’ve been that sweet BBQ sauce flavor but they all had a bit of a spice and kick to them. The Brussels and Apple salad was ok. I was interested in trying the peanuts and cola pie as that’s their signature and unique dessert. I loved the authentic story behind the development of the dessert, but in itself I didn’t think it was that special. It was extremely rich, like way too rich- a very think, creamy texture. I did like the peanut brittle crunch. My favorite thing was the buttermilk biscuit.

My S/O and I loved all the food we had at Blue Smoke. We tried a couplw of their drinks and their desserts, as well. Amazing service form our waiter (I wish I took note of his name)! He was very attentive and recommended a lot of items that complement what we had on our table. Will come back for sure!

I came during restaurant week and the food was AMAZING! Our waiter was super friendly, we enjoyed him alot. I'm definitely coming back to enjoy this great food. Rhe only complaint I had was constantly being asked if we wanted to box up food while still eating and enjoying our meal. The restaurant was not at all crowded and we felt we were being rushed. But other than that we loved everything about this place.

This place is absolutely fantastic! The wait staff is amazing, attentive, with above and beyond customer service, courteous and quite knowledgeable of the menu. The Mac & cheese is the best I have ever had, next to my moms of course. The brisket is seasoned and flavorful, Deviled eggs with just a hint of curry to blast off the taste try it ) My Cosmopolitan was just what I needed to end my day. It’s a perfect spot for after work meet-up for excitable food and tasty drinks. PS The sauce used on the wings can be purchased, just ask your waiter for the Alabama sauce.

Great barbecue. Delicious cocktails and friendly staff. Everyone we encountered was so pleasant, makes the atmosphere so much nicer. Hands down one of the best mac snd cheese I have had at a restaurant. Also best beignets outside of New Orleans.

Excellent from the food to the service and I will definitely be back again to Blue Smoke. No drinks , I had cranberry juice and she had seltzer water with lime.
Everything taste great and seasoned. Surprised how good the Mac n cheese was and the collard greens. We sat at the bar and server was gracious and attentive, she was the bomb. Didn't get her name, however she had on glasses.
Great dinner, I wish I could say the same for the movie afterwards The Northman, we eventually walked out on it, don't even bother ???? .

The staff greeted us and sat us right away. We did have a reservation so that probably helped. Everyone was super friendly and the food and drinks were amazing. Several of us had the Spicy Chicken sandwich and since we're from Texas we have some high standards for this dish. It was fantastic! And it turns out the chef is also from Texas so that's why it tasted like home. Definitely check this restaurant out if you're in the area!

A very good spot if you enjoy and love Southern style cuisine. The meat is delicious and the drinks are superb. For dessert I had the Beignets and I loved them. They were nice and warm and equally crunchy.

Let me start by saying that the biscuits at Blue Smoke are the best I've ever had in the entirety of my life. They are crunchy, buttery, lightly honeyed deliciousness on the entire outside, top and bottom, and fluffy, heavenly perfection inside. So effing good! I would come back, repeatedly, just to eat the biscuits. Every. Single. Day. Forever. Also, they're HUGE and I don't understand how they even exist.
Seriously though, everything we had was wonderful. The Alabama White Wings were super flavorful inside and out and cooked just right, not gooey at all. The Buttermilk Chicken Bites were absolutely ideal and exactly the flavor I dream of when I fantasize about buttermilk chicken; beautiful, flaky crust and tender, juicy white meat. The macaroni and cheese and collared greens were remarkable sides, worthy of the dishes they accompanied.
I loved this place!!!
