I got the grande burrito, and it was delicious. Brisket, pork, Mac n cheese , bbq sauce, and rice all wrapped into one. It was definitely a lot but worked well together. Definitely coming back to try some other menu items. Outdoor seating and a truck you order from. Great casual atmosphere if you're in the mood for tacos. read more

Smokin’ Gringo's - Grande Burrito - Tex-Mex Near Me - Summerville, South Carolina

I got the burrito with steak tips. Had Mac & cheese & other stuff in it. It was ok. The issue was it had so much sauce it drowned the flavors of everything else out. When I picked around the sauce the individual items tasted good. But as a burrito it just tasted like sweet & tangy bbq with some type of meat & stuff. I asked staff to be easy on the sauce. It was a nice outdoor setting. Waste of money for $21. Won't be back. read more

Food: 5!!! Service: 5 Ambiance: 4 Just discovered Smokin' Gringo's. Met some friends for lunch today. This is a nice outdoor venue, with cool tables made out of those big wooden spools, and picnic tables. You order from a window in one of the boxcars and they bring you your food. The owner is really friendly and cares about your experience. I ordered the Cuban. Oh my goodness!!! That is the best freaking Cuban I've ever had!!! It's very casual but wear whatever you like. They have a bandstand area for live music. I believe they are open 11-7 except Sunday, but make sure you check before heading over. What a fantastic find!!! read more

Came by Smokin Gringo BBQ on Saturday and it did not disappoint. Located off I-26 on exit 194 across from the Spinx gas station. Everything is outside seating and they have plenty of parking. I love all the vibrant colors of the containers. The menu has a huge variety so I asked what was popular. He said to get the taco trio & wings. I added Mexican street corn, coleslaw, macaroni and cheese, and a Paloma. The sauce on wings was amazing and the steak taco was huge and very tasty. I love that they were playing Mexican music. We even started to dance. It gets busy out there but it's plenty of seating and shade. I can't wait to go back everything was delicious. read more

Finally got a chance to stop in Smokin Gringo's which didn't disappoint. Well worth your drive to this location because it was every bit as perfect as all of the awards he has won made you think it would be. I mean mouth watering food experience. I will be back!!!!!! Great service as well! read more

Great place with awesome food! Parking: Located off of the Jedburg exit, Parking wasn't an issue, but if there happened to be a full crowd then it could raise a concern. Service: The service was very good. It was our first time here and our server was patient with me. He gave the recommendation for the grande burrito which I ordered. Food: I attached the photo of the grande burrito and I can say that it was everything you could ask for. It was smoky, savory, sweet (drizzled with a sauce) and flavorful. I enjoyed everything single second of eating and would order it again! Ambiance: Ambiance is appealing, what I mean by that is the colors of the storage containers that make up the area which is bright vibrant colors. It is very welcoming and can catch your eye on the side of the road. I ate at home due to it being cold outside, but I wouldn't mind eating there. Opportunities: The one opportunity that I can think of is the size of the burrito. Based on the size of it, it's not something you could really hold by hand if that's what you're looking for. I'm not complaining about that in any way but if someone were to think they're eating it traditionally, they wouldn't be since I had to eat it with a fork and knife and that was the better option for me. Overall: I'll be back for sure! The food was great and the server was hospitable and answered the questions that I had. You have gained yourself a customer! read more

This place is a favorite among me and my coworkers. The container style restaurant is situated on a corner lot so parking can be a little weird, but not too complicated. They're only open Thursday-Sunday. There's no indoor seating, but they do have plenty of picnic tables and umbrellas. Smokin' Gringos is not your typical Mexican restaurant- it falls somewhere on the spectrum of Tex-mex. The owner and pit master is usually onsite and will bring the food to your table- which is a nice perk. I always enjoy the nachos with pulled pork. The serving on the nachos is more than enough to share or if you eat it alone you may need to wear your stretchy pants. In addition to nachos, they have burritos, burrito bowls, sandwiches, and ribs (only on Fridays). They also offer beer if you're looking to spice up your experience. read more

We finally had the opportunity to go to Smokin' Gringos. They have a large menu. Their menu is not like other Mexican restaurants. They have a unique take on their burritos with several different barbecue sauces. The service was super fast & extremely helpful. They can also help with pairing sauces with your meat choices. The seating is outdoors with plenty of space. For the cooler nights, a small fire pit is also available. read more

The wings - mehhh. I've had way better! They were not tasty and they were not as tender as I would have liked them to be. The tacos - good. The burrito- also good. Would I return? Probably would try again. The bathroom- questionable! The saying is you can tell a lot about the way a restaurant's kitchen is by the cleanliness of the bathroom. And this is why I'm on the fence about returning. read more

What amazing food, prepared by an amazing owner "Gringo" who has very creative culinary imagination. Five of us had a variety of dishes, all great! Gringo gave us a free rib and Pico-d--Gringo to try. The place is as eclectic as the menu, being a collection of storage containers with picnic tables painted as bright as the buildings. You're going to love the quick service. read more

Great food but the customer service was the best part. I came back to treat a friend on the way home and grab some takeout for my family as well. Amazing service and friendly accommodations from Primo and Danna - they are the best! (Like, LEGIT, the besssttt) Thank youuuuu!!! read more

This BBQ place is the most interesting I have been to all year.

The food is awesome and the they even have one of my favorites Beef Ribs. Theyvha e to be ordered ahead of time but worth it. The people are super friendly and service is impeccable. The best roadside BBQ dive. read more

This is hands down my favorite restaurant. The owner has tons of experience and you can taste it in the food. He has made a perfect mixture of BBQ and Mexican food to create a very unique and delicious taste. I absolutely love the ribs and wings. I also like the different dishes he creates for the weekend specials like Birria tacos, brisket quesadillas, tri-tip tacos. Everything I get is absolutely delicious. The customer service is amazing and the owner is always there and will proudly talk to you about his creations or anything that you want to talk about. read more

Just off the cuff I saw this place and decided to stop in for some food. It wasn't busy, so I talked abit with the cashier and decided what the heck. So glad I did, I got the ribs and brisket sandwich, I asked if the sandwich could be unbuilt. I really wanted just the brisket. At the end of the day- I would highly recommend this place. Doesn't look like much but it is really good eats. read more

843-499-1606 call or text us We took a ride on a sultry Friday night in June and ended up at Smokin Gringo's, a rustic yet charming roadside cantina that had been profiled in local magazines. ( 850 Jedburg Road in Summerville) It was a worthwhile adventure. This place is clean, charming, and whimsical. Think lots of colorful, cool artwork.....tikis and the like and painted wooden furniture with fans and misters circulating above. We were greeted by the chef's daughter who is learning the trade and helping dad and the big guy himself...the Smokin Gringo came out to help us order. I had the "Southern Bowl", a savory tray of pineapple slaw topped by melt in the mouth brisket and topped with pickles at my request, and my boyfriend had the "Monster", a beast of a shredded pork sandwich with a tangy Mango sauce. We left not a shred. The menu has a wide variety of chicken, pork, and brisket options and everything seems to be fresh, creative, and lively. I chatted up the owner/chef for a bit and complimented the amazing brisket and he modestly noted that it had won a prestigious contest for the cooking of meats over fire. I believe it! read more
