| - Two stars just for the value and if I'd recommend this place to a friend. Maybe three stars for food quality... Smoke has a major pretentious hipster vibe, so much so that you actually have to know exactly where this place is and what's inside because there is no sign or markings outside...oy vey . Anyway, the place is nice although it's pretty small. Our server was nice but had the whole hipster "we're too cool for you" attitude and I don't think she ever made actual eye contact with us. The rest of the employees obviously have an affection for skinny jeans (are you sensing a pattern here?). As for the food, I ordered the special, which was a Cuban sandwich and fries and while good, it was overpriced at $12. My girlfriend got the ribs TACOS (which we thought would be plural, i.e. More than ONE). But alas for around 8 bucks (she added a scoop of avocado), she received ONE medium sized foil-wrapped taco on a metal tray. When it arrived we both immediately looked at each other, knowing exactly what the other was thinking. WAY, WAY, WAY overpriced for the quantity and quality received. If it had been April 1st, we would have thought we were being pranked. Total bill for our meal plus a draft beer and a coffee came to $32. Oh, and they only take cash, but fear not because the sign out front clearly says they have an "ATM up in here". I guess the PBR drinking crowd can't get a debit or credit card? If you're considering this place id say skip it unless you have cash burning a hole in your pocket and want to pay 10 bucks for some queso and chips, all while being trendily ignored, then I say go for it.
