    The food and ambiance was great, but our server seemed annoyed by us and was not very friendly. Even the bus person was aggressive when clearing off our appetizer plates. I've been going there for years, and this was the first time I've ever experienced this less than positive staff experience.

    Very nice experience - we were early for our table - they offered us a different one which we decided not to take and got a seat at the bar within five minutes of waiting. My naked and famous was delicious. Service was helpful without hovering and food was excellent. Good experience overall.

    It was a wonderful evening at Smitty's. The drinks are well poured and delightful to sit at the bar while we waited for friends. Food was yummy and the service was really impeccable. Lovely ambiance with all the beautiful lights and buzzy but not so loud that it is hard to talk and hear. Can’t wait to go back again.

    Our server was Johnny and he was fantastic. He was attentive but didn’t hover and knew the wine and food menu well, plus offered suggestions, which were helpful. A real pro, in my book.
