    Up in Smoke BBQ - The brisket was mushy and flavorless.

    Today was our first time eating here. Our waitress Chandra seated us immediately. The…read morerestaurant was neat and clean. We were there at an off peak time so we had the place to ourselves. They were doing a fair amount of to go orders though. We both had the 3 meat combo. I had brisket, saint louis style ribs and buffalo wings. This comes with 2 sides and cornbread. I opted to bbq baked beans and cheesy potatoes. My husband opted for dry (not tossed) wings and mac and cheese. It was also wing it Wednesday so wings were just $1.25 each. The wings were full wings and very meaty. The brisket was fall apart tender and the ribs had just the right amount of tenderness. Everything had good flavor. The cheesy potatoes were a little bland though. Our waitress was excellent! She checked on us often and was vey friendly. There was easily enough food for 2 meals. We would definitely go back again.

    Incredible, one of the best barbecue ribs, wings, and chicken that I've ever had. The owner "Tim"…read moreputs so much pride into his perfecting his barbecue meat. He definitely has a winner with his barbecue sauce and his meat preparation for outstanding barbecue ribs. And did I mention the coleslaw is so delicious. And of course, the cornbread is the best I've ever had. Truly remarkable to have a great lunch or dinner at "Up In Smoke barbecue"

    Up in Smoke BBQ - The sausage was sauce-less, not smoked, and undercooked. I cooked it later in some bbq sauce and improved it.

Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, the quality never disappoints. Easily the best BBQ spot in the area, and one I recommend to anyone looking for a great meal. Sometimes wait can be a bit long but that's expected and worth it!

    Our server was a young high school or college girl. We had to get a different server to get more…read morenapkins and salt/pepper. She didn't drop our food off and we were almost done before she came to check how things were going. Service is the reason they didn't get a 5 star. They had lots of young workers standing around. It is your typical bar restaurant, beer signs wood metal. Didn't care for all the high tops since I was with an older person and they can't get on those chairs. The food, omg yummmy. This is some of the best bbq I have had especially in Minnesota. The brisket was juicy fall apart. The ribs were a little dry but again fall off the bone and with some of the bbq sauce delicious. The bbq sauce has a little kick, with sweet and vinegar bite. Sides Mac and cheese was everyone's favorite. It was creamy and good. Potato salad had a smoky creamy flavor. Coleslaw was creamy. Baked beans were smoky and goody. They had a little different taste than some but they were good.

    Cutest place below a quaint hotel. The servers were amazing and made our event for 20 so special…read more Doris made extra efforts to ensure everyone was treated like family. She helped guide our menu choices and made my son's graduation dinner a truly memorable night. We loved the chicken and pulled pork with a lovely tamarind sauce on the side. Just spicy enough to be interesting with the ability to kick it up a notch if you want. We will come back! Thanks for a wonderful meal and experience.

    I went there twice on a recent vacation. Family member considers this "the only sit down restaurant…read morein town" which says something since there appear to be two sports bars right next door. As far as parking, there is street parking right off the road in front of the restaurant/strip. This was almost always taken, though more was available with a walk. Not clear where other parking would be to me nor their website. Our second visit we parked across the street at the library/police station and did not get ticketed. Yelp says they have validated parking but I am suspect of this fact but for us didn't matter. First visit ordered a bunch of pizzas for a party. They were good and big as advertised however expensive. Their pies are mostly flat rate and the toppings just add on to the price. I generally find pizza purchased this way to be more expensive as well however a lot of places do it this way. Without comparing literally, I'd say their normal pie was about the equiv of an XL and their small was about the equiv of a medium. Pizza was steaming hot when we got it and by the time we got home was the perfect temp (for me). Was consumed with due appreciation. While I do think it was good, as far as comparing price vs deliciousness, I mathed out the same pizzas (ignoring exact size difference) vs Albany Pizzaria would be about 50% more from here. Having been to both places, I do not think the pizza was 50% better and the locals agreed. Also, maybe coincidentally, a number of the party goers had stomach issues the next 24 hours. That could have been anything (other foods were shared as well as just human contact) but it makes me wary against 5*. My final ding was, while I generally love pizza crust, this ones seasoning was meh to me. I have an aversion to onion (minor allergy?) and I wonder if there was some in there. As far as the second visit, we did a sit down which was also 4* IMO. The entrance opens into a small waiting area (where we picked up the pizza) with a clear sign to wait to be seated. We were seen fairly fast but told to seat ourselves and they'd come take our order. The menu actually says you order up front and they bring it to you, not sure if this changed and the menu was dated or we were special tbh. Still looking for that replacement perfect bbq place, I ordered the 3 meat plate (ribs, brisket, pulled pork). I was boggled why you cannot substitute fries into the sides. The waitress/host tried to explain it but I still don't get it. So your sides are "limited" even though they have them on the menu. Chips and queso are also sold seperate, so if you want both that's 2 sides. I went with coleslaw and mac&cheese both were good. The mac did not sell me enough to future try their mac bowls but it wasn't bad. I also got a cranberry juice which came in the bottle. This unspokenly said no refills but also that I was paying $3 for the bottle, which is one thing I don't like about people just bringing me a bottle of something. Anyway, the ribs were great, I'd probably get a rack next time, the brisket was good and the pulled pork was super dry and not good IMO. The sauce did make up for it a little but I had 3 meats to distribute it between. Good BBQ I've heard and believe the meat should stand alone. My SO got a burrito mojado with barbacoa and liked it. Also got the (limited) hibiscus lemonade and liked that too, apparently could tell which is good. Cost $4. Since no drink refills, we only saw our server three times, food delivery, one checkin and once to buss. Payment was in the front as well; we had to ask. Their website at time we went said closed Sunday but the hours here did not. I called and they were open so I'd trust here vs the website tho they may fix it. Close hours were early for me but it's a small town :) Very few people besides us too and many left before we even got our food. Maybe we just eat late. Anyway, no stomach issues on the second visit, but all in all a few things (described above) left it shy of 5* for my tastes.
