Of all the bars we visited (and there were quite a few), this vibe was really chill! Went a few times and enjoyed the live music and cleanliness. Drinks were great! One of the BEST old fashions in town! read more

Great brunch environment with good service. Free parking across the street as well as around the corner. Lively inside with lots of bright spaces and long tables which is great for groups. High top tables all the way around so not the best for small children. Brunch buffet is reasonably priced with eggs, bacon, sausage patties, biscuits and gravy, French toast as well as beans, build your own corn in a cup bar and carving station with bbq ribs, chicken , turkey and brisket. Brunch drink menu is great and I tried the Caribbean water with Tequila instead of Vodka. They also had fruit kabobs, banana pudding and pastry bites in assorted styles. Enjoyed it read more

Smoke Skybar - Carribean water - Barbeque Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Hotel recommended restaurant. Came at noon time and was all but alone at the bar. Asked for brisket. Meet was too dry. Sauce was in a bottle but I think it should have been smothering the meat. Just one type of sauce. If the meat would be more moist, it would taste better. Bartender was great. Polite, accommodating. read more

Seen this place while driving on the freeway and decided to stop and explore. When I say this place is definitely a place to visit to chill, hang out and eat. You get two two floors of excitement. The inside and the rooftop areas have bars inside of them and the rooftop area has patio seating with umbrellas. The drinks are a little pricey however I feel you are paying for the ambiance and the experience read more

Smoke Skybar - 1st Floor Sports Bar - Barbeque Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

If I Iooked at the photos of the food before coming here I would have never eaten here! My meal I chose was a baked potato with chicken..,.oh no! My spuds was somewhat undressed and the chicken was old and partly crunchy!! I got it changed out to a sausage sandwich and Mac and cheese . I requested the roll not be toasted... the roll was falling apart and stale! This place has to up their food game before I ever choose to come here again. The roof top was an experience. We chose to use the elevator because we had to carry our food up there after we ordered it downstairs. And... they did not carry the gin I prefer, Hendricks ! The lady that I ordered my food from was very attentive. Several large TV screens to watch sports but the sound was blasting, unable to talk at a normal tone. I'll seek out other rooftop bars that have a better ambiance. read more

Maybe the best BBQ brisket ever! Super friendly staff and pretty lively atmosphere. Definitely stopping again

The food was average overall. The brisket was a bit dry, and the tacos were fairly plain, consisting mostly of tortilla and meat. Service was adequate but nothing exceptional. The margarita I initially received was not good; however, the staff handled the situation well. They promptly replaced it and acknowledged the issue after tasting it themselves, which i appreciated. Venue has a ton of potential but maybe it was just a slow night. Prices are very reasonable! read more

We stopped by while walking the River Walk -- this side is labeled Texas River Bar. I came with my family, and while kids are technically allowed, there aren't any kid options, cups, or menus, which made it a bit awkward. I ordered a regular lime margarita with salt on the rim. It came out with two lemon slices, salt slapped on the side of the glass, and tasted more like lemonade with a splash of alcohol than a margarita. I sent it back and asked for water instead -- they never brought the water. When the food came, it didn't help. They didn't have limes for the tacos, and the nachos were just meh -- bland and forgettable. Overall, bad service, disappointing drinks, and mediocre food. Plenty of better options on the River Walk -- I'd skip this one. read more

Food is average at best, somewhat cold and an insult to Texas BBQ. Furthermore, the staff was more concerned about tattoos vs servicing customers. I would recommend a bag of chips from a vending machine before visiting this eatery( eatery is a stretch) Also I think Texas has laws about vaping indoors at public establishments, especially when it's an employee. Video of vaping employee being sent to the state for review. read more

There is limited parking here though valet service is available. Get ready to tip because it will be expected. The food was just ok. I ordered the brisket nachos which just didn't really have enough meat or toppings in my opinion. However, the drinks were great! I ordered margaritas from both the inside counter and the outside bar and was pleased. The best part of the visit was the atmosphere. There is loads of outdoor seating which is nice to enjoy when the weather is nice. Friends and I enjoyed the Djs as they played a mix of old school and new school music. Yes. The line dancing was fun! read more

The ambiance is everything! We went to watch the girls NCAA basketball, and it was perfect. The weather was nice, the restaurant had fans up and blowing which added to a nice breeze, and the screens were huge enough for all to enjoy the game (speakers could've been a tad bit louder) The corn on a cup was amazing, but the rest of the food was pretty average on terms of BBQ. This is definitely a spot to visit for the ambiance alone! read more

Smoke Skybar - Corn in a cup - Barbeque Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Went here last night to watch the fights with a group of friends. Had a great time. TV's everywhere, and 3 large screens on the top deck. We had the brisket street tacos and they were delicious. The drinks were good, and the beer towers kept flowing. Everyone had a great time. All the staff were friendly and quick. Only change I would make is not making the music so loud that you can't hear yourself think. The DJ's were playing some good music but it was so loud that people have to scream at each other. It's a rooftop bar and smokehouse, not a night club. Other than that, no complaints at all. Definitely worth checking them out and enjoying the beautiful weather. read more

Came here for their Kegs and Eggs event leading up to the San Antonio Rodeo. They were giving away free breakfast tacos and breakfast sandwiches along with orange juice and coffee. They had live bands playing and it's a big venue all outdoors with different stages so it was a lot of fun to watch. They had heaters since it was cold in the morning and the team were great making sure the heaters were turned on and if any of them needed propane replaced. I had a good experience and enjoy going to the events they host during the morning/day. It's a cute spot and I'll be back for more of their events. read more

Crazy how the owner ADRIAN will not only NOT pay his employees on time or AT ALL sometimes the checks he owes them but he's stealing their hard earned tips . Literally STOLE all his employees tips . Imagine all the hard working moms there and it's right before Christmas. Enough is enough . Not getting paid on time was one constant issue but he crossed the line stealing everyone's hard earned TIPS read more

The good: chicken was juicy. Brisket was a bit too fatty, but still tasty. Pinto beans and green beans seasoned well. The mediocre: jalapeño sausage was overcooked and not spicy at all. Still edible. Barbecue sauce was meh. The bad: Michelob Ultra was bitter. Raw onions had absolutely zero flavor. Turkey was dry beyond recognition. The barbecue sauce couldn't even save it. Didn't taste the Mac & cheese. Looked store bought. Service was not good either (it's New Years Day so we'll give it a pass). This place wouldn't be my first choice for BBQ but, when there's nothing else open, I guess it'll do. read more

Really cool set up. Lots of seating: big stage for live entertainment. Big outdoor bar. The food was pretty good. Brisket was a little dry but thats nostalgic bbq places ive been too. The ribs and the sausage link was good. Nice combo of pretty good food and a fun outdoor atmosphere read more

So this is a really good spot that that you can go to a personal outside situation because of the weather. The weather was pretty decent when we got here but it was still kind of cool but we ended up going ahead and getting some heat lamps. We came for happy hour and happy hour was solid. So if a happy hour you have everything from 3 to 5 dollars. Crown royal. Margaritas. Tito's. All that. It was a really good move. I got three drinks and was paid like $13, so I'm not happy at all! I just eaten but I had to go get some brisket and I went ahead and tried the brisket here and it was actually pretty good. That comes with sauce and onions and pickles if you want that. And bread as well. But the brisket was tender and juicy. It had enough fat on her so you know it was going to be flavorful. They gave you sauce if you needed it but it didn't really need that much sauce to me. Overall if it's a really good day outside you should definitely try to stop in. They have an excessive amount of space so you have endless places you can go to sit down. You can sit outside under a covered place or entryway, or you can sit in a center area where it's like a courtyard with a picnic setup. Either way, you'll be fine. When we came on a Friday they had a DJ there and he was playing the hits. A lot of early 2000s hits which I appreciated. Overall I would definitely suggest this place if you want to get out and get some air. Since it's all outdoors, you really can't miss. We came during the All-Star Game and they were countless TVs to look at the game as well if you're interested. I would definitely recommend. read more

Wasn't easy to order they took out order at the bar. But we're mad we didn't order properly at apparently a register with someone else. Dry BBQ and everyone was too busy on their phones to care. Definitely more a club than anything. Manager was taking a shot himself when we came in so that's his priority over service don't waste your money here. read more

We went in with high hopes but it wasn't the greatest place. The food sounded appetizing but once we actually got it, it was slightly cold. We went upstairs for drinks and the vibe was nice but we were given warm shots when asked for cold and most of the mixer bottles were unlabeled. read more

Last visited: Dec' 23. In days after X-Mas. In the SA-TX area, we stopped by here for lunch. I ordered: St. Louis Ribs Plate (x3 ribs) with 2 sides -- Potato Salad & Green Beans Note that there is a difference between "Beans" and "Green Beans" on the sides menu. The first is actually Pinto Beans. Ounce for ounce, GBs seem to be a healthier option, hence why I went with it. Rest of table had: - 2/3 meats sampler that included smoked chicken and brisket cuts - Pork sandwich - Some beer The Pork Ribs that I ordered (seasoned) was pretty decent. They really soaked it and seasoned it well in salt and other spices. The BBQ sauce was likewise decent, nothing great. All in all, I would rate the dishes I tasted as follows; 1) St. Louis pork ribs -- tastes good with BBQ but just as good without (as it's seasoned) 2) Smoked chicken 3) Brisket -- good but too much fat with the meat, had to work to separate fat from meat (protein). All in all, good experience here at STD (funny acronym I know). They are dog friendly and I walked our dog near bar area outside, also they have decent restrooms, and food is decent enough, if not a home run for Texas BBQ. Had good experience and would recommend overall. read more

2/5 only because the drinks were poured heavy on the alcohol, otherwise they were unbalanced between mix and alcohol. The rooftop was great I could see how for men it would be enjoyable. I came on a very quiet night for the BBQ recommended by a friend. I ordered 2 BBQ brisket sandwiches. They came cold, the brisket was hard, and to be frank between the Mac and cheese and beans it wasn't great. I would say come to drink not to eat. Two meals was $38.00 and two drinks $16.00 one was a beer other was a mix drink. For the price of the drinks I can't complain food wasn't worth it. read more

The brisket mac and cheese needs no explanation. Creamy, cheesy, brisket-y, and just plain good. The 'best damn brisket taco' came with brisket, guacamole, pickled red onion, tomato, chopped white onion, cilantro, and salsa verde on a tortilla. Even with all the fillings inside, the tortilla really held up nicely. I wasn't a huge fan of the pickled red onion because I felt like it really overpowered the salsa verde. Great taco though! read more

I have to give this place five stars. Everything I tried, was amazing. All of my food was hot and taste like it was right out of the smoker or barbecue pit. My Margarita was very good. I try the peach margarita as recommended by the staff. The food was ready right away. The brisket and ribs were very tender and my favorite was the cream corn. I wish there was an indoor area because of all the flys but I do like the outdoor concert. read more

This was my first ever experience with Texas BBQ and I really wanted to say that I enjoyed it. However, I was really disappointed with Smoke! The service was okay, the staff that attended to my friends and I were very sweet. The overall ambiance of the restaurant was casual, there was a very big texan influence on the decor of the restaurant. The food was definitely lacking. The BBQ was very flavorless and the sides I had were also plain. I would love to see this place make some improvements because I can see this becoming a wonderful restaurant but I was just left dissatisfied after my visit. read more

Zero stars if I could. Ribs were tough and chewy seemed like they were microwaved. Buttered corn is from a can. Cocktails tasted different depending on the bartender - two of the same cocktail were completely different. One good one awful. Must pay for food and tip when food is delivered. Everything about this place was terrible. read more

We had two lunch specials, brisket macaroni and cheese also barbecue brisket sandwich with street corn. One recipe and one execution flaw in our opinion. The brisket itself had a good flavor, but the macaroni and cheese seemed like it was mostly a béchamel sauce. Had no cheese flavor profile. The street corn was not drained. well had a lot of water at the bottom of container it thinned out the mayonnaise. If you want ok food at a good price then this will do fine. read more

Yes! Another successful BBQ spot with amazing..did I say that right? AMAZING brisket and delicious cream corn! The prices were even better! We happened to dine in during the third quarter of the Dallas Cowboys Game and indulged in some draft after our meal. This was a cold day; however, they provided heat throughout the sitting area which was perfect. We also enjoyed a live band whom covered popular country songs. Will definitely be coming back soon! Sooner than soon. One thing I would like to change is to order two of the same meats!! read more

Great service, kid friendly, delicious food! Highly recommend the brisket mac and cheese and street corn!

We saw a Facebook flyer for a cold front special a while back and it looked like a good deal. I ordered online and it said to call when we get there as it was curbside only. We got there and called several times and didn't get an answer the first few times. We didn't know exactly where to park because there werent any signs for curbside or anything like that. We finally got an answer and they brought it out. The food was okay. I would only go back if there was an event there I wanted to see read more

Not actually handicap accessible. At all. No wheelchair ramp that we could find anywhere. Bad music played at very high volume, to the point that normal conversation was impossible. Left immediately to find someplace we wouldn't have to shout at each other over the meal. read more
