I really like Benny's barbecue. I've been there twice this week. I have never had barbecue turkey…read morebefore. Here I had it in a sandwich. It was moist, smoky and delicious. It served that soft round sweet bun reminiscent of Chick-fil-A. The brisket barbecue beans are exactly that. Barbecue beans, with a slight spice to it and some big chunks of brisket. Yum! The brisket sandwich is also excellent. They asked if I wanted it in slices or chopped and I had it chopped and loved it. The barbecue sauce is more in the ketchup beside, but that's fine. Coleslaw is OK. The serving of cornbread is small for the price. They don't serve barbecue chicken, which I found surprising but I love the brisket and the turkey and will be going back for more! And the guys working, they are very friendly.

My ribs were tender but not enough flavor. The brisket wasn't tough but wasn't super tender either, the fatty part was the best. Again not enough flavor. This came with a sausage, I got the jalapeño cheese which was delicious and dense. The best part of the tray was the mac n cheese. There is bbq sauce at each table which helped add more flavor to the meat. The pace is pretty big with a limited amount of seating inside. But they have a patio area as well.

When I finished my meal, it was as if I had woken up from a tantalizing dream, wishing I could close my eyes for just five more minutes. God bless this establishment, and God bless the United States of America for having created smokehouses like this. (We ordered the large mixed meat plate. We ordered 2x of them for about 10 people. My favorite was the beef brisket -- it's slow cooked for 18 hours.)

Barque is a laid back local smokehouse restaurant on Roncy…read more Food (4/5) - it's a smaller menu of starters, mains and sides... all southern smokehouse themed. - Smoked Beef Brisket - thought it was very average. Expected it to be much more moist fall off bone-like but it was more like a roast beef cut you might find at a buffet. Brisket Jus was not bad. - Side Jambalaya - this was a tasty version of jambalaya with flavourful sausage, chicken, onions in a simmered sauce. - Pimento Mac N' Cheese - nice cheesy mix of mac and cheese with a ketchup panko topping. Service (3.5/5) - was a bit slow and had to flag the server couple times. Maybe because was out on the side patio. Atmosphere (3.5/5) - it's a bit of a rustic feel overall, dark and dim inside and outdoor patio has rustic patio furniture and tables. Overhead rollable patio cover and heaters to support colder weather and rainy days. Overall (3.5/5) - found it ok overall. Thought the facilities and service might be a bit more premium based on the prices. Yes the prices are premium for the portion sizes imo... although they build the gratuity into the prices.

The food was top notch - meat was so well cooked and fell off the bone. Everything was seasoned perfectly and I didn't feel the need to douse everything in BBQ sauce. Friendly service as well - I'm definitely going to return as a regular!

There were some highs and lows to this meal so I would give it more of a meh star level but they…read moredid have great service and attention to detail. All the food is tapas style so be prepared to spend a pretty penny to be full! We started out the night with some cornbread du jour on the house. Little mouthfuls of soft cornbread seasoned with herbs was a good start. The tartar was one of the better dishes with great seasoning and the chips held up surprisingly well. The brisket was a nice, tender meat with a good meat to fat ratio. I can see the effort placed into this dish. Unfortunately, even though the fish had a delightful crisp skin it was a little dry and lacking in flavour. The smoked cauliflower was the most disappointing. It tasted more like raw cauliflower than anything else. Not sure where I was suppose to find the smoked flavour but it was the weakest of all the dishes. Will probably be back to try out their cocktails but not again for dinner.

I can only comment on the first floor as I didn't see the upstairs. The inside is functional enough, the furniture nothing fancy, but there are nice little touches of decoration here and there: framed art and mirrors on the one wall, old black-and-white photos hanging clothespinned from strings on the other, a chalkboard which that day bore a quote from Hunter S. Thompson. There is a standing area with a counter set in the wall opposite the main bar, so looks like they anticipate the placing becoming quite busy as an after work spot. There is a nice selection of bourbon and scotch available, as well as some tequila and other spirits. Ten taps for draught, which look like they will likely be rotating, and included some ordinary lagers and also more crafty IPAs when I visited. There is a selection of options on the menu besides beef and pork, including a variety of seafood. I got the brisket and was rather unpleasantly surprised to see it come as only 3 small slices with a few ramekins of sauce, given that it was $19, which seems mighty pricey to me. It was delicious if not a little on the fatty side. The sauces were just ok - one so spicy you can't taste anything, and the chimichurri was pretty oily. Can't fully judge as it just opened, but I hope the place is a success and other items on the menu are a little more value for the money - otherwise this would just be an ok place to stop in after work for beers.

I actually went to this location as my first time, and it was an okay experience. I thought it was a very small, narrow space - and the food I had was cooked properly but personal opinion, the food I had did not suite my taste. I find the Mississauga location much more modern, spacious, and the service was much better. I find the staff more personable to be honest. Parking is quite limited on the side street, the first 15 minutes are free - but this place is worthwhile, so it's a must try.

Poor Service: We arrived right at the start of dinner, but the waitstaff completely ignored us. We had to seat ourselves, I wish there were clearer instructions about this.

I would have gladly waited for a fresh meal to be cooked. There was no excuse for us to be served stale food.. I will definitely not be returning.
