    It was nice to see a good crowd at Bull Smiths. The burger was excellent, well prepared and presented. Fries were hot and yummy. And who can beat a wave chaser on tap

    The sound was WAY TOO LOUD for people there to dine. There must be a way to accommodate both the partiers and the diners. Did the sound really need to be THAT LOUD???? We couldn’t hear the Trivia game that was being played.
    Bull Smith's TavernResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the volume took away from your experience. We had an overwhelming response to our Free Burger Day yesterday, and truly appreciate everyone who came out to support. That said, we understand the importance of balancing energy with comfort, and we’ll be taking your comments into consideration to create a better atmosphere for both diners and those enjoying the entertainment. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

    The music was extremely loud and we could not hear each other. It is a sports venue and the Knicks were playing to clutch a championship. The Yankees and Mets were playing, big sports crowd. Music should have been brought outside where people were hanging out and NOT there for sports
    Bull Smith's TavernResponded on May 19, 2025
    Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the volume of the music affected your experience—especially during such an exciting night for sports fans. Your point is a fair one, and we’ll be taking this into consideration moving forward to better balance the atmosphere for both our music and sports-loving guests. We hope you’ll give us another shot soon.

    What a great experience.. 20 people, not one complaint... Managment was polite, professional, and promt.... Bartender was amiable, informative, and never seemed rushed, no matter how busy it got.... Waitress did a very good job,, Food was spectacular, and even better , considering the cost.. The wine was surprisingly good, and on Par with any of the higher $$ places around the area.... The biggest compliment anyone can give, is that we will definelty go back!! Thank you Bull Smiths for a great nigth

    Blonde Waitress was amazing. But 2.5 hour wait for FOOD Unacceptable….Yes it’s Mother’s Day, but kitchen obviously was running extremely behind. Not sure if will try again… sorry!
    Bull Smith's TavernResponded on May 15, 2025
    Thank you for the kind words about your server—we’re so glad she made a great impression! That said, we completely understand your frustration with the wait time and sincerely apologize for the delay. Mother’s Day brought in more volume than expected, and we’re working on ways to better prepare for high-traffic days. We hope you’ll consider giving us another try.
