Food is delicious, server and service was great, ambiance is inviting . Very good experience

Used to be weekly regulars here. Unfortunately, the baby back ribs have been consistently overcooked/dry and less meat on the bones then they used to be. They still have the best green beans and sweet tea in town though. read more

We were actually there on Mother's Day. Me and my two big kids. We walked right in around 1 pm. It was busy but plenty of seats and tables. We got a table right away. The store is very southern decorated what I meant is very hunting theme, like deer, gators and all displayed! Server and receptionist are all very friendly and welcoming. We all ordered our food, our server even told us the whole back rib is on promotion and only $2 more than half rib so that is what my son got. The drink is serving in the huge plastic cup. The food was amazing. I got the sliced pork, green bean and sweet potato fries. They are all so so good and yummy. The sliced pork just have the right amount of fat and meat to make it yummy! My older son has the 2 pound burger with fries! So good and juicy! My younger son has tbh e whole rack of ribs, Mac and cheese and corn. Everything is delicious and yummy read more

The service is the very best every time you visit. The specials make it affordable to eat at a suburb BBQ restaurant. The ribs fall off the bone and taste better than any other Central Florida bbq. The sides are good and the garlic bread tastes as good as I make it at home. read more

We Enjoyed the bbq and ambiance. The food was good and the staff made us feel welcome. We will be back.

I catered a lunch from here and cannot say enough great things about what a positive experience it was! The ordering process through their website was very easy and I quickly received a reply confirming. For a mid size office, I ordered the 2 meats/2 sides package plus salad - more than enough food!! The day of the lunch, I was greeted and helped by the owner, John but everyone inside the restaurant was super helpful. The restaurant definitely has a family friendly vibe. The food was hot, fresh and delicious. The office loved everything - will definitely order again. read more

Their barbecue is VERY TASTY service is great we usually get it to go and they are very prompt You MUST try their food, I know you will love it read more

The food is very good, but their redesigned menu is very poor. First, there were no photos of any of the food. Don't most restaurants have photos so people can point to something sand say "I want that"? Over half of one column on page 1 was a list of salads and their description. Page 2 listed the meats: ribs, chicken, turkey, sausage, and so on. Yet there's no description about how the meats are cooked or a description of the sauces. Are they slow smoked for hours? Is there a special way they cook the meat? Why should I try the ribs? In fact, it was like the menu was trying to entice me into getting a salad. But the word "Smokehouse" is in the name of the restaurant, which implies "smoked meats". Aren't most people coming for the BBQ and not salad? And I overheard the waitress say to at least 3 tables (including ours), "Our special is the half rack combo which comes with a second meat and 2 sides. And let me explain some of the meat items since I know the menu is confusing." You know what- if the waitress has to say "the menu is confusing" during her introduction, then that probably means there's a problem with the menu. Anyway, I got the half rack combo, which she suggested, and it was great. The ribs were soft and came right off the bone, the pulled pork was great even without the sauce, and even better with the sauce. The fries were crisp and the mac and cheese was tangy. My wife got the full rack of ribs and it was great with and without the hot sauce. This is the second time we've been here and the ribs are consistently great. The waitress was quick to refill our drinks- we got sweet tea and she brought us plenty of lemons. read more

Had lunch with a friend as it was here suggestion and it was not a bad experience. The hostess sat us right away and our server was nice, attentive, happy to answer any questions and checked on us. We ordered the half rack special for the day which included and extra meat, Texas toast 2 sides (corn salad and baked sweet potato) and the BBQ chicken which came with 2 sides (baked sweet potato and mac and cheese) and Texas toast. Everything was tasty and it kicked the BBQ craving. We will keep it on our rotation list. read more

Exceptional Bar-B-Q at a great price. The turkey lunch plate could easily feed two people. The baked beans were fairly pedestrian and could use some seasoning. The cole slaw was excellent. The 25th Anniversary slab of ribs is an incredible bargain. The service was fantastic. The ambiance is old school crowded smokehouse. read more

We had the most amazing server, Bailey! He is what EVERY waiter should be. We were a party of four and we each ordered something different. Every one of us was very happy with what we ordered. You can't go wrong!! My only criticism is that two of us ordered a glass of Cabernet and while the pour was generous the wine was subpar. They could definitely "up" their wine selection. We would GLADLY pay more for a better quality read more

Great food and service ! Get more food than most places now days ! Worth the time and money !

It's been a long time since I've had good BBQ that wasn't Sonny's or homemade. I got their turkey platter and it was perfect while my hubby and bff got their rib special. Those ribs were amazing! I've never had ribs that good in years. The service was good and the ambiance reminded me of a BBQ joint I went to years ago back home before they closed down. If you want damn good ribs, this is the place to go! read more

Ample parking. restaurant is clean and presentable providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The wait help is professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. Food is always excellent. Would definitely be back. read more

Not like it used to be. Taste and options are just wayyyy off compared to the past! At one time it was our go to place but seems too many corners being cut to make a buck. Raise the price BUT keep the good stuff!! read more

Clean, good food and service , fast hot food great for lunch. Highly recommend them.

Love Oakwood! We have never been disappointed with the food or service. We had a birthday celebration there for my husband this past Saturday (22 in attendance). I had made the reservation in advance and they had everything set up for us when we arrived. The service was excellent and everyone enjoyed their food. Highly recommend!! read more

Food was super good had ribs and beef also corn salad and greens. Juan our waiter made it special. He was attentive and personable. Haven't had a waiter like him in a long time, your #1 Juan!! We will be back. read more

Oakwood Smokehouse in Lady Lake has the best baby back ribs in the surrounding area. Great flavor, fall off the bone delicious.

Always a solid stop when we're in the area and looking for a quick stop. The "fried" green beans are a killer app, and even though it's a smokehouse and their meats are good - I always go with the fish sandwich. Has a smoky flavor to it, and with plenty of lemon it really is the best thing on their menu. Nothing fancy at all here, just super friendly servers and some solid food in a hurry. read more

The food was amazing. You felt like you were back on a farm and your grandma was in the kitchen and made it. the flavors, tenderness of the meats and the love that they put into it the seasonings the time that they allow their greens in their green beans just sit on the stove to soak up all of the meat flavors and seasonings is incredible. This is one of the reasons why they have lasted 25 years. They still do things the old-fashioned way your portions are amazing. The size of teacup they give you they don't have to fill it but one time because it's huge . The servers are joyful. You can see and hear them walking around how they got each other's backs they enjoy being there and working there. it is a good hometown restaurant to go to. on top of that they give you A huge glass of tea. There are pictures on the walls everywhere to go walk around the restaurant and look at of all the 25 years memories from family and friends, fishing hunting and then all the taxidermy of animals, gator heads, bobcats different types of fish All around the restaurant mounted for you to enjoy. this restaurant will definitely be around for another 25. read more

Disappointed This was hyped up a little and failed to live to the expectations. Ribs were okay but a bit under done. Baked beans were tasty Black-eyed peas were soaked in something not favorable Table sauce - I did not like either Sweet Tea was good. read more

Consistency in their signature dish baby back pork bbq ribs makes this restaurant chain worth a visit. Always plenty of servers and frequently a full house at lunch and dinner hour. Good sides, real sweet tea, and interesting decor makes it a good dining experience. Better than Sonny's on some things like the salads, not as good on others like the okra. read more

This place is a go to for us. The barbecue of all kinds is good here. I love smoked turkey. The portions are huge, we always have enough to take home for lunch the next day. The service is always friendly and prompt. It is a fish camp sort of feel, ss far ss atmosphere. The prices are great and the food has always been delicious every time we have been there. We will definitely be back. read more

One of our favorite spots. The ribs are the best we've ever had and fall right off the bone. The onion rings were excellent. One hint... if you get an appetizer, wait until you get it before you order the main dish. We had gotten soup and the main meal came out a minute later read more

We were a party of five for lunch. we were seated immediately- our waiter Juan was personable, accommodating and a pleasure to interact with. The salads ordered were exceptional. Portions are ample And my half rack of ribs fell off the bone. I brought most of mine home for dinner. We are pretty sure we're going to make this one of our regular stops. read more

First the bathroom was so dirty and smelled really really bad. Made me sick. Went and ahead and had pulled pork /collard/bake beans. My stomach is still really bad after 6 hours. Never going back. read more

A very nice country style down home place to eat. They run an anniversary Barbecue rib special which is medium size but inexpensive. For me they are not great on side dishes. So three stars due To limited side dishes and entrees that are enjoyable. Servers do not spend the effort to remember you and build a smiling relationship. read more

We have loved this restaurant for 11 years. They have great bbq and delicious salads. The ice tea is very fresh always.

Went to this restaurant for an early dinner. It was my first time, my family are regulars here. The food is outstanding, loved the atmosphere, the place was clean. Had the fried flounder, sweet potato, collard greens, & sweet tea. Heavenly! The fish was really good! Service was excellent, the waitress checked in with us a few times & the manager checked on our table too , which is always a nice touch. read more

Ribs ribs and ribs with their really nice tangy BBQ sauce. Service is great and sides were good of collards and baked beans, beans not overly sweet. The sliced beef was lean but lacking in flavor probably because of leanness. I wish brisket was an option but their ribs are great and I don't usually go for texas toast but finished my piece. They have mastered the pork rib hands down! read more

This bbq is the best in town! Lots of sides including collards, okra, mac n cheese, bbq baked beans and more. Special on the baby back ribs!! Nice size portions also The service is usually pretty good. Friendly staff. Dinning room is clean. read more

Got a BBQ salad with turkey and beef. Cubed, cold meat, no hint of it being BBQ and basic lettuce, shredded boiled egg and cheese. Mediocre at best, and quite disappointing. Certainly it worth the money. Service was good if a little overbearing and familiar. read more

Convenient, hot, delicious, love the Diego and the yummy crust. Support local businesses.

Simply AMAZING BBQ! Kristaleigh is an incredible server with an award-winning attitude! I will definitely be returning regularly!

I wasn't sure about this restaurant. But it did not disappoint. One of my favorites is fish and they have a delicious fish fry. In fact, I would say this is probably one of the best french fries I've ever had. My boyfriend always gets the ribs and he loves it. It was so busy in there. We decided to order and take home. read more

I've been here a few times. They have a nice patio and the dining room is fairly large. They also do a carry out service. Barbeque ribs are fantastic. I am not overwhelmed with the side options. Went with macaroni and cheese and cole slaw. I didn't care for the slaw and the macaroni and cheese was average. They serve Pepsi products but have great sweet tea and have large cups! Our server was awesome and prices are reasonable read more

Took a roadtrip with family down south for the day and had a blast, but thats not where the day ended. On our quest back home we decided to make a pitstop in Eustis for some BBQ. Not wanting typical sonnys we searched for a new place and found this little gem and stopped. It was a great decision as the atmosphere was great and people were friendly. But it didnt stop there, Juan who was our server not only provided us with what i would call the best service but he kept us smiling and kept the great vibes going. Would def recomend this place anytime to anyone... if i were to give it an out of 10 score it would be 10/10... read more
