    Sitting the town and stop by this restaurant.very friendly customer service.we where greeted as soon as we came in ..feels like family.Food came out fresh and fast.Akeem was our server and was very knowledgeable about the menu and suggested hot honey with lemon pepper.They was having a baby shower and it looks like a really cool place to have a event.I enjoyed looking at the walls that was decorated with history from the community and local Men and Woman who made a difference.

    Was in Fort Lauderdale visiting family and they brought us to Smittys on a Sunday evening and it was AWESOME SAUCE! Great DJ on the patio playing great music for everyone, people were dancing and vibing and it was a solid crowd with great energy! We had drinks which were delicious and I see they have happy hour so the next time I'm in town, will stop in for that and also try the wings! Love supporting local business and the staff were so awesome to us and we experienced top notch service!

    Smitty's lemon pepper
    Jesse R.

    I ordered wings from here through DoorDash and it was really really good! The tater tots were crazy good, crunchy. We got the 10 piece Smitty's lemon pepper / jerk chicken flavors. My personal favorite out of the 2 was the Smitty's lemon pepper. It was actually sour and sooo good. The jerk chicken was pretty good too. I wish it was "bigger" though because it said "jumbo" on the listing, and it wasn't jumbo. I did not want it extra crispy but It came extra crispy and I actually like it more juicy. All in all, I'd give it 3.5-4! Great flavors, wish it was "juicier" and "jumbo, but amazing tater tots!

    Chicken tenders

    Old grease used to fry food. Over saturated and not flavorful. The service was good but cmon now this food wasn't even edible and a waste of $77 ( margarita and tip included )

    Strawberry Hennessy

    Although there is a parking lot it is small. I ended up parking in the overflow across the street, unpaved. Inside and outside is spacious and clean. Patrons were really loud so much so I opted to sit outside. The noise followed outside also I ordered the Mango Habanero wings with fries and the Strawberry Hennessy drink. The wings were indeed delicious as was my drink. Service is great. Very efficient and friendly. The downside of sitting outdoors is the smell of cigar/cigarette smoking and flies. Overall I would return here if in the area but for carry out . The noise was overwhelming for me and made it less enjoyable.

    My cousin and I came to Smitty's for an R&B Bingo event. I've always heard great reviews about Smitty's, so I was excited to try them. When we parked, you can hear the good music coming from the outside patio DJ. As we walked in, everyone was friendly, and the restaurant has a cozy family vibe to it with everyone dancing, eating and enjoying their time. Our waiter was fun, he was great with the service, had us laughing, and gave some great suggestions. Since the restaurant has an open patio concept, you may want to bring a small fan because it can get a little warm on the inside. We ordered their corn nuggets and buffalo cauliflower with coconut and strawberry lemonade. The lemonades had a very sweet flavor. The corn nuggets and buffalo cauliflower were fried well. We ordered their lemon and orange pepper wings. These are some of the best lemon pepper wings I have had. The wings were fried to perfection and packed with flavor. I can't wait to come back to Smitty's to try more of their food and enjoy their good vibes.

    This was my first time visiting this widely talked about location and I decided to go during lunchtime when it was quieter. Our server was very personable and engaging with our small group. The food was delicious. The chicken was cooked well-done, just the way I like it! I knownthey wete cooked well by the meatless bones I left behind (I'm a picker) I tried the Smitty's Sauce with Lemon Pepper seasoning *chef's kiss* The fries were good and I loved the Arnold Palmer. I ended placing a to-go order of 30 wings and frelies to take home for my husband and daughter to try for dinner. They loved it!!

    I'm so glad I stopped by! 10s across the board! Went on a Sunday and we definitely had a time. Live DJs, hookahs great drinks and of course amazing food ! What more can you ask for ?? They have both indoor and outdoor service. Service was quick ! Servers wasn't so robotic, and all servers were helpful. It was definitely a vibe. I'll be back

    I have been wanting to try Smitty's for some time now! I sat on the back patio & although, hot, they had fans that helped to cool the area down. I ordered the lemon pepper, Smitty's special sauce wings, & mini donuts for a treat! I loved that they let u mix the flavors, so in my order of 10, I could get 5 in one flavor & 5 in another! I especially liked Smitty's signature sauce. It's a sweet taste, like a honey, mixed with mandarin.That's what my taste buds told me, but I'm not sure if I'm right! The wings do sit in a considerable amount of oil though, much more than at other wing places. That's the only reason for 4 stars, instead of 5. That won't keep me from going back though! The mini donuts came hot with powdered sugar. They tasted like elephant ears you'd get at the fair. Delish! The service was attentive! The young lady who served me kept checking to see if I liked everything. Yes, go check out Smitty's! U won't be disappointed!

    Mozzarella sticks
    Sharon P.

    This place had a really nice feel and mood to it. Loved the music that was playing. The food on the other hand in my opinion could have been better. The cost for the food didn't match at all. The mozzarella sticks had no flavor and were served with parm cheese on it which made them very dry, and served with cold sauce. The tenders with fries were good but definitely over priced for the size of the tenders you receive, which I was please that they gave an extra one cause on the menu it was only 3 for the meal, but again they were very small. As for the wings they were good but if you are going to put sauce be mindful which one you add, like the garlic parm, It has no garlic taste to it at all. The Mystery drink was really really good so no complaints there. I can see my family and I coming back to give it a second try but I'm hoping they can revamp the combos and the prices. The young lady that served us was very nice and attentive which was a pleasure so thank you again!

    Came while visiting Florida closer to 5pm happy hour on Thursday I was seated very quickly ! I got a $3 shot and a mixed drink for $9 with the mozzarella sticks, the 6 piece wing combo and chicken gizzards. My waitress was so sweet , answered all my question and just really cool. My mixed drink was strawberry lemonade heavy on the strawberry soo good! I got the Smitty's sauce which was honey lemon pepper and the barbecue the sauces were good but the wings had more bone then meat to me and the chicken gizzards were not good at all but the mozzarella sticks were so good crispy and cheesy !! I poured the sauce on the wings . Loved it was black owned and felt very black cultural.

    Cassidy F.

    Love it! Food was great. And so was the environment! Could use some more mozzarella sticks in the mozzarella sticks. Wings were good but my friend didn't get the right order/sauce. It was good and fresh and would definitely go back !

    Yummy food and drinks
    Precious P.

    Omg my coworkers and I loved this place!! After we learned about the history of Sistrunk, we wanted to support a black owned business, and I heard a lot of great reviews about Smitty's, so we wanted to support it. The positive reviews were on point!! Smitty's is worth visiting, supporting & learning about the history. The food and drinks are so yummy !!!!! We ordered Smitty's, Thai Chili Sweet & Lemon pepper flavor wings OMG they were really good. I ordered the sweet potato fries that were fresh, and they sprinkled sugar on it. I've never had sugar on my sweet potato fries different but good! Crystal recommended trying the homemade lemonade and Smitty's lemonade mixed drink. Both drinks were delicious. I'm definitely going back for happy hour and Friday for karaoke. All the staff were friendly and professional. Crystal was our server, and she was super nice. She provided great recommendations & history about Smitty's. Also, another woman, sorry, forgot her name, but she was so nice too. She gave us a tour & and a history of the beautiful pictures on the wall. I really love learning about the history and seeing them on the wall so no one can forget, especially when the Republicans are trying to change/lie about the Black History in FL.

The atmosphere was rustic and down home. A perfect setting. The cashier/order taker was a gracious lady, polite, and attentive. The place had a pleasant, smoky aroma, just like it should. My wife and I went for the food, which is the central point of going to a restaurant. And the results met my expectations of the "Texas Standard". Brisket: full of flavor, with a nice smoky and all round taste. A minor issue was that it could have been a bit more moist. I say minor because this is the easiest thing to correct, by small adjustment. First rate. Spare ribs: excellent. My wife was over the moon. She is Brazilian and a veteran of Brazil BBQ. They were delicious. Chicken: perfectly smoked and moist. Even the white meat. There was a present bark on the surface, which added to the taste. Sausage: delightful. Obviously an individual, small batch recipe. Very flavorful and moist. Superb. Cornbread: My favorite style of light, natural flavor, not oily. Iced Tea: fresh taste and flavor. Not bitter. High quality. Sauces: regular and tangy. As good as I have ever tasted. Potato Salad: The best I have ever tasted in my 78 years. Different and unique. Coleslaw: Perfect. Cannot, in my opinion, be improved upon. Price: surprisingly fair. Very fair. I was pleasantly surprised at such Texas quality in Fort Lauderdale. We will be going to no other for BBQ.
