We gave Smoke another chance tonight (Friday dinner) and our experience was a complete 180 from the first time. I had the meatloaf with fries and cole slaw and my husband had the half chicken dinner with fries and corn. The meatloaf was moist and the portion was well worth the price. The char on the meat gave it a crispy exterior which was unlike any meatloaf I've had before. The slaw was delicious...be aware that it's Carolina cole slaw so it's vinegar-based, not mayo-based. The dressing was just the right combination of sweet and tart. The skin on the chicken was crispy and had a nice smoky flavor. The corn (one of our big issues from the first visit) was completely different...definitely fresh off the cob, not canned. It had an amazing flavor. We also tried the Pulled Pork Crisps appetizer and it was so delicious. We finished with the Chocolate Chip Cookie a la mode for dessert and it was so good...it literally melted in my mouth. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The only (minor) issues we had this time were 1) the cornbread was a little dry, and 2) my sweet tea still wasn't very sweet, but it was okay. I read in another review that the cornbread used to have pieces of corn in it...I think it would be great to go back to that recipe. We've changed our minds about Smoke...we'll be back.
