    Great value for what we got! My chicken for $11 was massive and the coffee stout bbq sauce was great. My only change is upgrade to the $15 salad as the $9 was very small but I should have asked. Apart from that small change we will 100% be back again. My husbands dish was also massive, he got the brisket sandwich and so many side fries.

    When we walked in, the server on the floor was sitting at the bar chatting to a customer. She didnt greet us or come over to our table. Few minutes later we were greeted by our server. She had dark hair. Tacos were delicious and well priced. Our initial server was great, but she got stuck behind the bar. She did make sure to send coworkers to check on us - she was friendly and efficient; the other team members' service left something to be desired. Will still be back for those tacos.

    We had a fantastic server, very friendly and helpful! Food was simply amazing!!! Weren't too sure what to expect when we went in as it's below one of the older hotels (renamed and cleaned up) downtown... but we were all very happy with our decision to try it out and can't wait to go back!

    The ribs were dry and tough, no doubt cooked quite sometime before, left in a warmer and reheated and sauce added before serving. One of the worst meals I’ve eaten at a restaurant.

    I do not typically write reviews, but Smoke was excellent so it gets one. Atmosphere was fun and energetic. And they have the best mustard pickles and pulled pork my wife and I have had. We will be going back soon!

    We arrived around 6:00 PM on a Friday and had plenty of choice for where to sit. More people came in after 6:30. We needed to leave by 7:30 and we had our drinks, appetizer, and main well within the time limit. The drinks and food were so delicious and we definitely intend to return.

    The food was really good. The restaurant was quite dark where we were seated. The music was quite loud so if you have hearing issues it could be challenging. The value for your money was really good. Yummy stuff!!! Wings, pork ribs, brisket was yummy. I would eat here again for sure.

    It was OK for a Saturday dinner. Short staffed apparently, so service got slow. Service was very attentive when we first arrived and ordered. After that is very hard to get the attention of the server, for other items needed and to order another drink. Had to go find the server.

    The staff was great! We were a big party, on a hot day at the very back of the restaurant with not much air flow. It was quite hot in there but the staff set up fans for us and were on top ensuring all tables had cold water. Our wait staff was also very attentive and ensured everyone was taken care of. As for the food, it's not the best BBQ I had but it was well done and executed!

    Had an amazing time at smoke! Owner and staff were super friendly. DJ was amazing. The BBQ was top notch. My boyfriend is from Texas, so good BBQ in Alberta is hard to come by. BUT WOW! It was so good! Mac and cheese, fire. Brussel sprouts, fire! Wish there was a little bit more sauce, but can’t complain was cooked well. Pulled pork was excellent! Definitely will make a stop back when we are in Edmonton next.

    Don’t let the outside fool you, this place is serious about food and drink. One of the best value for dollar places we’ve eaten at in a long time. Alexa made ordering the drinks alot of fun and we’ll definitely be coming back for that incredible warm potato salad!

    The food was really good and the service was ok.. the ambience was more like a dive bar. Reservations were not needed, as there really wasn’t anyone there. The waitress was okay and friendly enough. The inside of the restaurant still pretty much looks like the old Denizen Hall.. kinda cool. We were hoping it would have been a little nicer than it was? Don’t think I would go back, definitely a take out rather thank dine in kinda joint ☺️

    Brussels sprouts were cooked to ash - we actually wondered if maybe we were on a prank show… ‘why would you serve that’ we kept asking ourselves. The beef ribs were tough and couldn’t get all the meat off the bones, nor would you want to… so tough. Our sodas were mostly water. Music very loud. Service staff was great, but can’t make up for such lousy food.

    We had made a reservation long in advance. It was not busy on a Sunday night. We waited 1 hour and 15 minutes for food after ordering. The food was inedible. The tuna salad was drowned in dressing and I could not eat it. The burger was burnt black. Service was exceptionally slow. The table beside us had intended to stay and eat but after waiting over 75 minutes, they had to get their food to-go as they had to get back to their work conference. I was very disappointed and would not return.

    This place has it all as far as a pub/casual dining restaurant. The menu has a great selection for everybody. The food is delicious. The atmosphere being across from Rogers Place is electric. Staff go out of their way to make sure every patron is well looked after and on top of that, they join in all of the excitement and fun happening. I will definitely be back - many times!

    service, servers and waitress were extremely polite and helpful, building and restaurant itself where well kept, food was a bit disappointing as our appetizer had a lot of fatty pieces in it and some bites where inedible, meal was a bit better and value was decent, restaurants parking was great as there is a few lots to park at nearby. extra kudos to our waitress and the bartender for making our evening out extra enjoyable.
