Our authentic BBQ starts in a live-wood smoker stoked with genuine hickory logs. Our pitmasters hand-rub the meats with a custom blend of spices and cook for hours to extract the natural flavors. We source the highest quality meats and trim them up like we’re in a competition and hand-rub them with the freshest seasonings available to create mouthwatering experiences! In addition to our BBQ and grilled meats, our menu features a selection of salads, sandwiches, side items, and made-from-scratch desserts.

    We all ordered from the $13.95 special menu for lunch. The fries that came with some entrees were excellent. The Strawberry salad, burgers and panini like sandwiches were all appreciated. The included cookie and ice cream dessert was a hit. Many thumbs up for the salted caramel cookie.

    This was my first time dining at Oak and Embers Tavern in Hudson. Our waitress Britt was excellent and patient. We had a party of four and all of our food was on point should have taken pictures but we dove right in and didn't get a chance to! Highly recommend- hard to make a decision on the menu items they all look amazing. Happy hour is every day 3:00 to 6:00 That's definitely a game changer. Must try the burnt ends, chicken wings, they were delicious! Their special cornbread is definitely on point! They do offer outside seating but it was so hot we ate inside. Very spacious and plenty of parking. Highly recommend and yes I will be returning with my husband!

    Our party of 4 went to Landmark Smokehouse for brunch. We had the Brisket Hash, Burrito, Pulled Pork Sandwich and the Brisket sandwich. The food was delicious and everyone cleaned their plate. Landmark also has a great Bourbon selection that is reasonably priced. We had to sample some. Our waiter was really good. Overall a great experience.
