Went with a REALLY big group (~25 people) to Smoke BBQ House for a holiday reunion. We had a really good time, but the restaurant definitely showed it's signs of being relatively new and inexperienced. I understand since it's only their 3rd week being open but they could do a lot better.
One really nice touch is the way they did the sauces at the restaurant. Every seat included it's own sauce brush and they provide a handful of different sauces. As the dry smoked ribs come out, you can brush on whatever you want on each rib. I definitely could have used a little more sauce at the table.
The ribs were a little dry and the beer they have on tap is a little expensive for what it was. I think it would be really great if they would bring in a couple cheaper beers.
At the end of the meal we spoke to the owner about the few issues. He said he'll talk to his chef and make sure we have an excellent experience the next time we're there. There aren't enough authentic bbq places in Toronto so I really like the concept of Smoke BBQ house. Next time I'm in Toronto, I'll definitely give it another shot and hopefully up my rating.
