Pit Sampler - jackfruit, brisket, chicken, brussel sprouts
Kimberly K.

Pretty tasty BBQ and friendly service. The place smelt like oil instead of BBQ inside but good thing we took it to go. Liked the bar top counter, that was a good idea for their setup. Got the Pit Sampler - 3 ounces each of jackfruit, chicken and brisket with brussel sprouts and cornbread. Seemed like a pretty good deal to try out various items for being here for the 1st time. All was very good and the lean brisket was my fav. Corn bread and brussels were great and would come back for more

I attended the restaurant for a private event, and I absolutely love the ambience and food that was served. According to their Instagram, Friday nights, they have a special curated menu with vinyl DJs. this is a great place to have date night or to bring any guest visiting. Orlando definitely a hidden gem. The food is really good and the staff are very helpful and knowledgeable in their menu.

Ribs
Joelle S.

I came on a Friday night with friends for the Vinyl on hifi. We had made a reservation but there didn't end up being a host/hostess and seating ourselves. The DJ was still setting up when we arrived at 8 and as the night went on the lights continued to lower and the music continues to get louder. It was a bit chaotic and took a long time to order a drink or anything to start. Once we did flag down a server though, everything came out fairly quick. We split a bunch of items and we loved everything we had. The ribs were the favorite of the group though the wings also had plenty of sauce and flavor. The donut was truly standout and was crispy on the outside but divinely moist on the inside. My cocktail was also super flavorful and they had a nice pour on the wines. We will definitely be back!

It's like stopping by your cool aunts place in the city for a bite to eat. The interior gives modern industrial vibes and the owner seats you herself. We sat right next to the kitchen and could see all the yummy food coming out to the tables. I ordered the Prime Brisket Smashburger and it totally hit the spot! Especially with those golden fried potato bits on the side. On the way out we had to stop by the donut bar. The donuts are made fresh and loaded with toppings. I got the Sm'Oreo and he got the Bacon Blast. Both were incredible!

Donuts!

As you park and enter what looks like an old diner you are greeted and sat. Now we were lucky and the owner was there to greet and seat us with friendly vibes. This place was busy but we didn't have to wait for a seat, but if you do have to wait let me spoil it now, wait cause it will be worth it! The brisket and egg on the donut I had was perfectly sweet and savory, with the proportion being the perfect amount for about $8. They do have some adult beverages as well, but none were had at this time. Then when you are done you can go to the donut counter to order some specialty donuts to eat. I had one covered in maple glaze with a strip of bacon, which was great the next day for breakfast. Definitely go and check them out!

We originally had planned on going to the Hawaiian diner around the corner but found out they close at 3pm on Sundays and arrived right after close. After a quick yelp search I found this place right around the corner. And we are so glad I did! First off the vibe in this place is amazing. From the music all being played from vinyl records, to watching the drinks and doughnuts get made, and just the entire vibe overall was amazing. The drinks were awesome, the food was awesome, and the doughnuts were awesome. Definitely recommend the vanilla glazed! Will be back next trip to Orlando!

Brisket topped pancakes!!
Andi P.

5 Star update for one of my new favorite brunch spots! (Get the brisket-stacked pancakes ASAP). I love S&D for lunch, but recently got to try out their brunch on a Saturday morning with some girlfriends and it was FABULOUS. First off, note that they have added a vinyl DJ area (so fun!) and now offer table service (perfect for ordering more brunch cocktails!). My favorite brunch dishes I got to try were the brisket-stacked pancakes and the brisket egg & cheese sandwich. The pancakes are made with donut batter and have a hint of citrus. I was offered regular maple syrup or a bourbon version and obviously went with the latter. The brisket was perfection and made this dish the best representation of salty-sweet decadence. I can't imagine ordering anything else for brunch now that I've tried this... And yet, I got to try my friend's brisket egg & cheese sandwich and holy cow the caramelized onions took it to another level. if you're looking for something featuring eggs for breakfast- this is a must. In terms of drinks, I liked their peach spritz. It wasn't too sweet and it was a hearty pour! And even better- they made me a great cortado, so don't forget to get a well-made espresso drink while you're there. Previous lunch review: 5 Stars because I am OBSESSED with this family-owned barbeque spot (their food, staff, bar program, etc!)! My sisters had been raving about Smoke & Donuts for a while now because it's super family-friendly and they go with their group of friends (and their kids) often. They talked up the food, of course, but it is the staff that really sells them. It's family-owned and everyone there is an absolute joy whenever I've been. They offer everyone free little donut holes with their orders and they remember you like you're part of the family. I've enjoyed the brisket (WOW) and the pulled chicken- Both are standouts! Something else on the menu that totally surprised me and stayed on my mind was the mac & cheese side. It's so unusual, but I am a big fan! It's got a rich flavor and then an almost sweet aftertaste. Trust me- somehow it works and you'll want more! And for the vegetarians- they have pulled jackfruit available to satisfy their barbeque cravings. Love the inclusivity with that option. In terms of donuts, my fave is The Lou, featuring a maple-bourbon glaze, heath, Hershey's chips, and brisket burnt ends. That salty, sweet combo is unbeatable!

Brisket Pancakes
Drew S.

Smoke & Donuts is so good. Happy Hour is great and I had brunch today that was fantastic. The brisket pancakes and brisket eggs Benedict were awesome. Service is great and the vibe is awesome. Strongly recommend coming here.

Pulled Pork Biscuits and Gravy
Marc H.

I've wanted to try Smoke & Donuts for a while (been trying their food at the OEP Barbecue in the Park for a couple of years). My family and I went there for lunch today. The decor is a good mix of kitsch and nostalgia. As we entered, the owner's mother greeted us, showed us to a table, and gave us a nice overview of the place and the menu. The Price Is Right was playing on the TV (original when Bob Barker had dark hair), and the owner was behind two turntables lining up the next few songs. We ordered the biscuits & gravy with pulled pork, the Prime Brisket Bowl, and the Prime Brisket sandwich. It's the weekend so the had a bit of a brunch flare to the menu. Eggs, grits, and home fries were with most meals. They give you pork rinds while you wait for your food. I got the Prime Brisket Bowl with extra eggs (poached). It was very tasty, but I would prefer it have a little more meat and less home fries. I asked for some tangy BBQ sauce, and they brought out a small (thimble sized) cup. The sauce is good, but I would love to have a bottle on the table. The brisket has very good flavor. I tried the grits, and they were thick and even had a hint of cheese. Quite good. All of the servers and the owner were friendly and attentive. Great service and quick took. They encourage you to ask for donuts when you finish. When you do, they bring a free bowl of cinnamon donut holes. Great experience! Really enjoyed the visit today.

Stopped in on a Friday night and they have a pop up menu of ramen & otsumami. I tried the espresso martini and the ribs. The martini was strong in the best way and the pork belly ramen (forgot to snap a photo) was delicious! The ribs were a little salty for my taste but besides that, full of flavor. The bartender was great, checked in to make sure we were enjoying our order and the food came out within a reasonable amount of time. The ambiance is chill with a live DJ who was amazing! Will definitely be returning!

Donut selection
Kristine M.

Super cute place! Actually had a burger with EpicBurgerDrop which was taking place outside. Everyone was super friendly and loved the vibe!

Bacon blast
Simran B.

We visited smoke and donuts on a Friday night fairly late. There were 4 of us and they had us sit wherever we wanted since there weren't that many people. While they weren't serving their full menu, they did have a really cool looking Japanese pop up menu, but we were just there for donuts. They didn't have all the beers on their list, but they still had a good selection and a solid bar. I also got a bacon blast donut which was very solid. I loved the maple bourbon topping and the bacon was great. My one comment is that it was a little too much sweetness for my taste. I felt like there wasn't enough bacon for the whole donut. Either way, I'd definitely go back for the Lou since I love brisket and I'm excited to try more of the food items on their menu when I'm back during the day!

Turkey Bowl.
Brandie G.

I've never had something I didn't absolutely love in this restaurant. I am now officially hooked on the turkey bowl. I requested mine with half salad half rice. My friendly server is happy to oblige. The Cuban is also a favorite, as well as the amazing mac & cheese. Service is prompt. Food is fresh and delicious. The restaurant itself has a very funky retro vibe that I absolutely enjoy. The owner, Ian, and staff have really curated a wonderful experience whether you come for lunch, brunch, or dinner. I love them all and delight in bringing new friends to experience this local gem.

Stopped in here to grab some food for Father's Day lunch. The goal was to feed 4 people, and have a…read morevariety of items. When we arrived the line was out the door and went around to the back. It was hot, but the team took great care of us. They made sure everyone had water, and for those of age they even offered one Smokemade Lager from Ten 10 Brewing. The line did move at a slow and steady pace. And I appreciate them for offering the waters, the beer, and for managing the line and keeping it orderly. Once it was my turn to order, I did my best not to order everything, but also did my best to pick some favorites. While there was only four of us, we wanted to have a spread and have leftovers. So I ordered two brisket sandwiches, one pulled pork sandwich, one philly sandwich, 6 ct- tallow fried wings (hot korean bbq), large side of cheddar grits, large side of pinto beans, large side of mac and cheese, and a large side of potato salad. When the sandwiches were being made I was immediately impressed by the amount of brisket and pulled pork being put on the sandwiches. While packing our food, I noticed they threw in a loaf of bread. When they handed it to me, I asked if the bread was our ls and they said it was. We didn't order it, but I am thinking since our order was over $100 it might be something that is included, not very sure. Once to my destination we unpacked all of the food and laid it out. It all looked so good, and the smell was out of this world. Everyone quickly made plates and dove it. It didn't take long for us to start commenting on how delicious everything was and that we loved it. The sandwiches were generously packed with super flavourful meat. The cheddar grits were amazing. Some of the best mac and cheese I have had. And the pinto beans were great and I loved the meat they include in the. While we all thought the potato salad was good, it was the least exciting of everything. I think we all prefer a wetter and more southern style. My wife did enjoy her philly, but did make the comment that it was more brisket tasting and not enough philly like. It was also packed with meat and looked amazing. The wings were a nice little addition, great flavor and cooked perfectly. And that free loaf of bread was fantastic, it was similar to a potato bread. Everything was so good and well with the wait. I look forward to my next meal here. The staff was phenomenal and so helpful. Everyone was in great spirits and did a wonderful job, especially considering how busy it was.

I have to be honest I wasn't impressed by my visit to Smoke Made Meats on Crystal Lake Drive…read more I had the brisket sandwich, but the meat was almost a paste, and the BBQ sauces didn't really deliver, super watery. The mac and cheese also left me wanting more it just wasn't as rich as I hoped. That said, their collard greens were outstanding truly the star of the show. And the butter gooey cake? That was a sweet win. I also tried their Frisco fries, and they were decent, but I wouldn't rush back just for those. The ambience is really laid-back. It's like any regular barbecue place. I saw at least 3 to 4 tables of people sitting down and enjoying their barbecue and they seem to have a steady stream of traffic. The cashier who is also getting our food order together seemed really nice. She had a great personality. I honestly don't feel the need to go back and visit again. I feel like I would enjoy barbecue more from four rivers.

Whent with 2 proteins because its so hard to pick. The crispy pork belly was so amazing! Just the right amount of fat and crisp and cooked to perfection. The soy sauce chicken had a very aromatic seasoning light but flavorful. Even the green stuff was great! It came with 2 sauces not needed but good for a little twist to the flavor, one I think was eel sauce (no eel included and the other one tasted mostly like green onions. There was a hefty portion of delicious fried rice (5$ upcharge )under the protein. The rice had a peanut flavor to it, it was light and aromatic, very delicious. Worth the upcharge?... I'll let you decide. Service was fast and friendly place was packed and things moving fast but the staf was personable and attentive and even popped a joke in our short interaction.

My favorite was the beef chow fun - the flavor was awesome on the beef and noodles! My only note is that for the price point, I'd love to have seen a bit more beef in the entree, but I'd still return just for this dish!

We went with the Butcher Board, which is listed as serving 2 but easily fed our entire family of four including my wife and our kiddos which makes it a great value for what you get. The brisket was the standout for me, followed closely by the pulled pork. The chicken and sausage held their own too. Honestly nothing on the board disappointed. The beer selection also surprised me in the best way -- not your typical theme park watered-down options. One heads up for first-timers: order before you find a table. We made the mistake of doing it the other way around and were pretty firmly told we couldn't sit until we had ordered. I get it as it's how they manage flow but if you don't know the rule going in, it feels a little abrupt when you're just trying to wrangle your family in a crowded dining room. Overall, The Polite Pig is a clutch spot. We will be back!

This is Oviedo's hidden treasure! The brisket is amazing (seriously - 4 Rivers and Bubbalou's…read moreshould be worried). It just fell apart in your mouth and had such a delicious flavor. I had the smaller bowl (1 meat and 2 sides) and it was enough to feed me for 2 meals. OMG the beans! There were 3 or 4 types of beans in it and it was incredibly hard to not gobble them all down instead of saving some for my hubby to try at home. My friend had the cornbread casserole which she said is her favorite side after the beans (I'm GF so I couldn't have that but I wanted to!). Another friend had the Bbq brisket sandwich with potato salad and she said the potato salad was really tasty. Just so you know - this is a very small restaurant. No inside seating, just picnic tables outside. (Some are shaded.) There is an area outside to wash your hands after eating and you can download their app and order online which gets you $5 off your meal (that's a good deal) but even without a discount, the food is worth every penny and the portions are generous.

It was ready when I pulled up to the lot adjacent to the BBQ restaurant. There is outside seating only and a sink to clean up afterwards. I went in and my food was ready. I opened it and was checking for the extra pickles which were an option in the app. The person who handed me the food said that they had not had pickles in some time because they were having issues with the supplier. Darn. So I decided to eat my pulled pork sandwich at the picnic tables outside. Actually the tables are not that far from the road where cars and trucks whizzed by. I went back and asked for more bbq sauce because I got two small cups of bbq sauce which had about 3 tablespoons of liquid each. Pulled pork always sucks up a lot of sauce. There was plenty of meat and the bun was fresh but overall it would have been perfect with some acid from the pickles. My brisket and rib meal was excellent. I ate it later and I found the southern green beans to be good. I would definitely get this combo again. It came with a drink which is a canned soft drink. It doesn't say on the app but they also have bottled water. Overall I felt this restaurant lived up to all the hype. Check the app for $5 off on your first order. See QR code in the picture.
