Food and service impeccable. Only issue was that we were seated in a room with a large and noisy party but wonderful after they left. I had taken my aunt out and she has difficulty hearing so the first 20 minutes or so were difficult for her. Other than that, everything was wonderful!

The food was excellent. Service was a slow at the beginning and then main meal came really quickly, so timing could be better. Noise level was very high. All in all I like Smitty’s and will return but not my best experience there.
