    a man sitting at a table

    Hit the right spot. Was searching the area looking for a new place to try and came upon this place. Looked interesting and I wanted to try it - was glad I did. The menu is smaller, but enough and great choices. I settled on the brisket empanadas for an appetizer. I honestly could've eaten a bucket of these as they were that good. The 'nada sauce was fine, but you don't need it either. They have a good drink selection and had Mexican Coke (and Sprite)! If you haven't ever tried Mexican Coke, I'd strongly recommend it. Superior to American Coke for sure. For the main course, I went with the reliable burger - in this case, the 'house double'(w/ a side). I added bacon, because why not. Burger was very tasty and something I'd easily have again, though there were enough options on the menu that I'd also love to try. Alana was excellent. Friendly, welcoming, attentive, and a pleasure. Simply outstanding all around. The place is small, but comfortable. 3 booths and several tables - a bar if you want to sit there. Several TVs as well. There is another location in New Rochelle (the first one actually). Parking is metered street. There is a 2 hour limit on the meters (that only accepts quarters), so make sure you keep track. There's also an app, but I didn't download it. Place is nice and one I intend to return to. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend it.

    Pork and chicken taco
    Amy P.

    We had a really nice dinner here. I started off with a cranberry margarita which was outstanding, and I got chicken tacos for dinner. My girlfriend had a regular margarita and we got more tacos to share, this time we added in the pork taco. The chicken tacos were really flavorful with lots of Pico de Gallo, really tasty. The sesame pork tacos had an Asian flair and were overflowing with pork and pickled onion Our server was very friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is just very chill. We will definitely be back soon!

    The food was delicious. They had the most amazing service. The ambiance set the mood for everything.

    KALE CAESAR TAILGATE WINGS FRIED LITTLE THIGHS
    Rebecca C.

    Comforting food, table had an assortment of food. I stuck with the kale salad (maybe throw in some romaine? A lot of bite with thick dressing) Tailgate wings were awesome- I got the Alabama White BBQ Sauce on the side. Nice smoke and char. Owner/Chef stopped by the table to see how we were fairing. Gave us a bottle of the dry rub! Can't wait to try it on the grill this summer.

    Tasty food - but not a lot of smoke flavor. We shared the mixed grill for two. The serving was generous and the chicken was surprisingly good. We tried to guess how the meats were smoked, as everything was tender, but didn't taste smoked. Our favorite item was the street corn. The room is small and comfortable. The service was adequate.

    JERK BRISKET TACOS
    Tara G.

    I was very impressed with the Smokehouse being naturally skeptical of northern BBQ:) I had the jerk brisket tacos and they were amazing. My boyfriend had the brisket which was great but the real star of that platter was the cornbread. It's the best cornbread I've ever had. I'd also bump my rating up to a 4.5 based on the cornbread alone. The Buffalo chicken dip was solid ans a good split for the two of us. I'm coming back soon to try all of the things.

    Second time here and highly recommend! The food is great. They're mixed flavored wings are amazing!! My bf enjoys their red meat selection platter. They have great happy hour and the atmosphere I good. Will continue coming as a local! Manager Susie is great!

    A feast

    Our waitress, Ashley, was fantastic. Engaging, helpful, pleasant and super happy. The brisket appetizers were stupendous--a small wedge of tender brisket ensconced in a flaky pastry with some dipping sauce. Wow-eeee. Deeelicious!! The sausage board was ok--not great; not bad and certainly a repeater for a second try. The feast for two was really big enough for three or four. Ashley said she ate one herself but was dubious given her waifish physique. Fearful of growing a 3rd butt cheek, I shared with a colleague....and took home of hog of leftovers. The fries were really good--not oily, crisp and warm. The cheddar infused cornbread was phenomenal. Not some chintzy corn muffin masquerader. Super soft super moist and about 2-3 inches thick. The baked beans were good, the added onions was a helpful twist and the sweetness was expectedly alluring. The beans themselves were a little smallish and tasteless when tasted sans the sauce and onion splendor. The Brussels sprouts were served with cut up apples and a sauce. Suggestion to the chef, maybe braise or char them and bag the apples. It was not a winning dish as is. The ribs were awesome, nice Smokey flavor and cooked with a very nice crust. The meat fell off the bone and it was clear that the chef had rendered and reared them right. I'd order them solo again. The chicken was extremely moist and tender, with and without its skin. The steak....well, ok--it wasn't strong; it might have been helped with some dry aging--which costs nothing--a more generous application of salt, pepper and spice as well as a better smoke (I couldn't see a smoke ring). The place was noisy. My colleagues couldn't hear much of what I said--probably no harm there; and I could not hear them so well either-- a bummer. Lighting was not so great. It was between 3 and 4; Ashley pushed it up; but some of the technical imperfections brought it down to lower 3s. I will go again--if for no other reason then to try to figure out the 3 vs 4. My hunch tells me it will migrate down but my hope is that it will elevate up.

    BRISKET EMPANADAS
    Sean M.

    Absolutely amazing food, great vibes. The brisket was super soft, tender and juicy. Beer was great+clean glasses + good pour. If you're going on a date or a good time out! I suggest it 9/10 from me. Also shoutout to the servers felt a little rushed at the end but all good.

    I was in a mood for BBQ so badly and found this place not located too far from me in Mamaroneck. This place is nice aesthetically and offers plenty of outdoor & indoor seating and is a good place to eat and watch sports. They have a wide selection of drafts and wine. I ordered the babe rosé ( bubbly wine) which I thought was okay. To see the menu you have to scan the QR code with your phone ( 1 menu for drinks & 1 for food.) The brisket empanadas we ordered for appetizer were rather small & tasted ok but the sauce that it came with was amazing (server said it was sour cream with cilantro, garlic & onion.) I ordered the crispy skin chicken which came with mashed potatoes and corn bread. The chicken was very juicy, but I didn't really like the dressing on the chicken. The cornbread, however, was yummy. Mashed potatoes were also good and tasted homey. The ribs were tender but lacked a bit of flavor. I would like to say this place satisfied my craving of BBQ, but it just missed the mark a bit. However, I would definitely come back and give this place another try & check other options on the menu.

We had unsweetened iced teas, and the kids' seltzer came in a kid-sized cup. After ordering, we were served cornbread sticks, which were really good and a hit with my son. Elwood also brought crayons and paper for him, which was a thoughtful touch. We started with the gator nuggets and frickles. The gator nuggets were our favorite appetizer. The frickles were good, but the batter was fairly thick, which made the pickle flavor a little subtle. For my entrée, I had the fried chicken with collard greens and mac and cheese. The chicken was nicely crispy and came with four pieces, though it was a little overcooked for my taste. The collard greens were on the sweet side, and the mac and cheese could have used a bit more flavor. The highlight of our visit was the service. Elwood was friendly, attentive, and struck the perfect balance of checking in without being overbearing. Overall, the food was a bit mixed for us, but the excellent service, family-friendly touches, and pleasant outdoor seating made for an enjoyable experience. We'll be back to try some of the other menu items.

Ordered the Gael burger which is the mascot of the school, I assumed. It came with American cheese burger, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions & bacon. It was very decent, the mushrooms and caramelized onions paired everything beautifully. I got truffle fries instead of regular fries and it was totally worth it. I almost ate most of my fries before realizing I didn't touch my burger yet. Give Luis a raise cus he was running the whole floor and I counted atleast 4 other workers, one of them a tall blonde man who kept going in and out of the bathroom or back room the whole time. So while Luis is taking everyone's orders, checking in on the tables, and putting the orders into the system at the bar, I'm not sure what that other man was doing...I observed him just taking up space. So yeah big up to Luis on his work ethic! It was such a good time there as he came out with our cake to sing happy birthday to our guest! Drinks were good tho too. I do wish the tables and surfaces of this establishment were cleaner, however. We had sticky matter and spots on the table.

    THE FOOD ----------------…read more+ New England Seafood Chowder - Very good. Came out piping hot and had lots of potato chunks, carrots and fish inside. Only knock is we wish we had more! + Clam Pizza - Personal pie size pizza. Honestly, just the right size. Verrrrry delicious and verrrrry flavorful, BUTTTTT the flavor didn't come from the clams - it came from the over-dominating flavor of the bacon scattered all over the pizza. Not to say that the bacon flavor was bad, but it could have used more clams. + Kids Mac and Cheese - Gooey just the way we, especially our kids, love it. + Grilled Angus Burger - Solid burger. Cooked medium and it was the right shade of pink inside, but the burger was a litttttle dry. It was not dripping juices and oil as I would prefer. Plenty of fries onions on it though. Fries reminded me of the thin McD fries. + Steak Tacos - Just 2 tacos. Would have liked if it was an order of 3. Steak was good though. Guac inside mixed with the steak chunks definitely made it better considering that the steak was well done. THE SERVICE ------------------- + Friendly and courteous waiter. Accommodated our numerous ketchup requests and never forgot anything. + Food came out VERY quickly. - For the Grilled Angus Burger, cheese did not come with it for free, but the waiter asked what cheese I wanted, which misled me to think that cheese came with the order. I ended up adding swiss cheese, which definitely made the burger better, but it was an extra charge. The extra $2 for the cheese was not the issue, but the way that I felt that the waiter misled me was the issue. Instead of asking what cheese I wanted, he should have asked "Would you like cheese with your order?" It's the principle. Feel me? Because of this, had to knock off a star off what would have been a 4-star review. THE SURROUNDINGS -------------------------------- + Private parking lot was in the back. All of the spaces in the front are for the Rye Train Station and paid, so DO NOT park in front of the restaurant if you're here to dine. + SUPER spacious restaurant with 2 levels - 2nd level seems like it is for private parties. 1st level has 3 dining areas PLUS a nice, huge bar area. + Multiple TVs located by the bar.
