We came in here for my son's Birthday. Skyler did a great job with the service. Food was on time. He was always attentive that we have our beverage, and asked if everything was ok with the food and it actually was great . Very courteous. He even said Happy Bday to my son without us even said it was the Bday only because he saw the postcards. Attention to detail. Food was excellent! Thank you so much for your service!

Would you believe they had a 5$ apps option all day everyday! So guess what we had? Mini BBQ nachos and WINGS!! There was so much food for the 2 of use we ended up taking home the wings for a pre-game before we went out later. Bartender was very helpful with out selections of food and beverage. The place was clean and spacious for 1, 2 or a party! We will definitely be up for another visit! See you Soon!

Stopped by for a quick snack, and surprised by an awesome happy hour. We had the mini nachos and boneless winds...both were super tasty. Disappointed that both of the IPAs they had on tap were empty...but the service at the bar and the food still made it a good stop!

I haven't been to Smokey Bones in probably 2 years. There isn't any located anywhere near where I live. While in the area shopping we decided on a big lunch at Smokey Bones figuring dinner would be light. While looking the menu over we noticed several things are different since last time we had eaten here. When the server approached we asked her about doing a combo. I wanted the 1/2 rack of baby back ribs and pulled pork combo. I learned from server they no longer offer that combo. She stated that to do that combo it would cost between 5-6 dollars more. I also asked if I could have the center cut of the ribs. I was told no, they don't do that. I hate when you order a half rack of ribs and you basically get 3 edible ribs out of the 6. We all know how the ends are usually burnt and not very good. For an appetizer we ordered a corn bread. It used to be served in a pan. It's now served as 4 mini cornbreads. I actually prefer the cornbread this way. The taste was the same, still delicious. Also, if you don't finish them you can take it home and it's a mini cornbread for later. When my food arrived I was pleasantly surprised. Everything was delicious and the ribs were so tender and falling off the bone. The pulled pork was yummy too as was the sides. Our server was lovely and I wouldn't hesitate to come back when in the area.

Had dinner here several times in the last 7 years. The food and service have been very good. There is a large menu of bbq food. Smoked wings, pulled pork, bbq chicken, beef brisket, and "falling off the bone "ribs just to name a few. There are starters like cornbread, Brunswick stew and pork nachos. Several sandwich and burger platters are available. We ordered the cornbread which comes with a delicious flavored butter. Enough for two to share. For our entrees we had the half rack of St Louis ribs with fries and coleslaw. It came with a side of Texas toast. They have a full bar with reasonable pricing. If you make it to dessert try the donuts. .
