This seems to be the place my work crew likes to frequent when I come to Pittsburgh. I gotta say, it was better this time. Not great, but better.
I still will say the bbq itself is sub par, however, the meals that include bbq'd meat (like the pulled pork burrito I scarfed down today) do a good job concealing the quality. Let's face it - Smokey Bones is a chain with okay service, okay food and meh atmosphere. No need to avoid our seek out this place.
