Honestly I don't see what the big fuss is with smoked meat. I came here on a hot and humid evening because the line at Schwartz was way too long and we were starving.
Anyways, I have the say that I did enjoy the cherry cola and the portions were huge, but the service wasn't too great. Perhaps it's just that I'm not a huge fan of smoked meat but I found that this place wasn't as cramped as Schwartz (I went the week after) and there was no long wait.
Also, it was really nice that we weren't jammed packed into a small table unlike at Schwartz. (The 7 of us were packed into a table meant for 4 there!) I liked the coleslaw and the gravy but I found the fries almost too crispy.
