Was recommended by a co worker in early April. Finally got the chance to try city smoke on my 3rd trip to Charlotte.
Walked in well after the main lunch rush. (1:30pm on a Monday)
Very nice and clean inside with plenty of seating. Read a review about a larger group. While it does have plenty of tables and booths and counter top space I can see why and how a group could be a problem.
As for the food, very very good. Didn't know what to order so I ordered the combo: brisket, pulled pork, 3 different kind of ribs with two side.
The brisket was delicious, and all three of the ribs were very very good. The pulled pork lacked a lot of flavor but this could be because I enjoyed the brisket so much.
Each of the ribs had their own different taste w the sauce and dry rub. Which is always good. The brisket had a good smokey flavor to it.
I had Mac and cheese and dust fries. The waitresses recommended the chili and the fried okra topped with something.
Service was extremely good and fast. Never had to wait. And there was 6-7 other tables at this time of day.
I will be a repeat costumer, probably at some point this week.
They also offer brisket burgers which may be what I try next!
Plenty of options: salads, BBQ, burgers, starters, fish. They have something for everyone!
