From my understanding, this is a new business, but you can't tell at all. Rudy is so professional and knowledgeable. Not to mention, the food was delicious! He served tenderloin medallions with horseradish sauce, rosemary chicken, shrimp cocktail, Caprese salad, baked bre, and Carpaccio. Everything was good, but the baked bre, Carpaccio, and tenderloin were especially delicious. My office hosts many of these events and it is not an exaggeration to say that Rudy's food was by far the best we have ever had. We didn't order desert, but Rudy brought some vanilla bean flan anyway that was a huge hit. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Rudy is a talented chief and a kind man who can put together a meal for any special occasion. He also offers cooking classes every week - how fun! We will certainly be taking advantage of his skills the next time we return to the Valley.

Are you thirsty? They have you covered! Your water, tea or soft drinks comes out in a good size mini pitcher just for you. You don't have to share it, you drink out of it. Everyone gets their own. We all ordered the baked potato, smothered with chopped beef brisket, cheese, butter, and sour cream. It was pretty big. Most of us couldn't finish ours and happily took it home to eat later. The turtle cheesecake is delicious. Perfect ending to a great meal. As you're eating, you can look out at the fields and they have a few Longhorn cattle and a couple donkeys out there. It was a nice meal, great service and great atmosphere.

Good sized place inside and you order from the friendly staff at the counter and I got brisket slices, which is strange for me, since I usually get pulled pork, but I was on vacation. I got Mac and Cheese for my side. Food was ready pretty quick and all delicious. The mac and cheese was buttery and cheesy and al dente and the brisket was melt in your mouth. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Good stuff. The ambience was your basic Texas BBQ place, all good. Give Smoke a shot!

Chips & salsa: Crunchy chips; fresh, chunky salsa with just enough salt and mild heat. Some days the salsa is more flavorful and some days it is bland. Pollo in mole: Mouth-watering! A bit more sweet than savory with a spicy kick! Served over shredded chicken breast. I don't know of any other restaurant that serves it like this. Such a treat.
