| - I absolutely loved the food and atmosphere here, but unfortunately I don't think I'll be back because this place was a total hassle to dine at. It took us three attempts before we were able to eat here.
The first two times the wait was too long for our schedule, which was annoying because the one time we were there during the off hour between lunch and dinner. When we finally did eat here, they tried to seat us at this long bar but due to back issues I wasn't able to sit on that chair.
There was a larger table empty, but the hostess told us to seat us there we'd have to be prepared for them to seat other people with us. I could understand that, and this place is so busy bc the food is awesome but for me, it just made my overall dining experience really frustrating and so I'm not going to go out of my way to come back. It was just too frustrating.
SO, given we were on what was likely our singular visit to Smoke, I'm glad that my friend and I over estimated how much food we could eat and literally ordered every single taco they had. You know, to try... so I could yelp! about it!
Other Yelp reviews mentioned the service would be slower and the tacos were small. I found the service was very good, and the tacos were a normal taco size. The thing is, they are FULL of meat. They don't look like a lot of food but they are very, very rich and I honestly think I could be satisfied after just one taco and splitting an ap.
My favorite taco was either the BLT, or the Rib taco. The BLT was certainly the LIGHTEST of all the tacos we tried, which was surprising. The Rib taco was just so savory and amazing...a perflect mix of spicy, sweet, and a little kick. I loved it. My bf had the chicken apple bacon taco and he loved it. I had a few bites and really liked it, but it was very rich. I had also ordered teh Wagu taco and I took a bite and it was excellent.
I let my bf take a bite of it and his eyes lit up the second he bit into it and he pronounced it the best thing ever. Who am I to seperate a man from the best thing ever? So, I pretended I was really full and let him finish it. So all I know about that taco is that it is very, very good and that I'm pretty sure my bf dreams about it at night.
We also split the mac n cheese and it was AMAZING but as it was incredibly rich, I only had a few bites so I could walk out of Smoke without completely loathing myself/weeping for my diet.
I think the interior or the restaurant is absolutely adorable. I would love to come back but again....its just so busy and the waits are always so long. Maybe if they did take out (they might, I don't know) then I would def be there alll the time getting take out. No reservations, either. I highly recommend you try this place. On a night where you have a lot of free time, and an elastic waist band.
