    Our waitress was awesome, friendly polite and took a moment to talk to us. We had the Sangria for 2 which was very refreshing. We both ordered the briskets I picked fries and mac n cheese for my sides and my husband picked mac in cheese and Cole slaw and a side of the corn bread and everything came out hot and fresh. the brisket was so tender it was falling apart on my fork we definitely enjoyed our time at the Smoke House it was our 2nd time there and they did not disappoint. We will be back soon.

    They were out of brisket, which happens. I get it. Opted for okay pulled pork sandwich. Three bad sauce choices and I like most sauces so that’s puzzling. Baked beans were not good. I couldn’t figure it out. Again, I usually like baked beans options at bbq places. Wedge salad was okay. Ambience inside looked fair. Ambience outside is eating in a parking lot. Literally cars were driving past us. Won’t go back. So many great options at same price point near there.

    Really good meat. We had the 5 choices of meat and 3 sides and that was enough for 4 adults. Especially the baby ribs and the brisket was excelent.

    We had a great dinner and Lexi was a wonderful, friendly server! We all had some ribs, I shared the combo plate with my brother and it was more than enough for 2!! Thanks for the hospitality!

    They were out of chicken and brisket at an early dinner time. So that was very frustrating. But food was great

    We enjoyed our dinner at Smokehouse. Food was delicious, atmosphere was fun. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio people watching the busy Newport Main Street. Would recommend for families with small children. Our server Chris was great.
