Here are my food, service and ambiance thoughts:…read more Food- One star. The ceviche was tossed in some sort of sauce reminiscent of ketchup. Why??? (chips were pretty good) The salmon was overcooked and the grilled broccoli practically raw. This meal was so underwhelming it reminded me of maybe something you might pick up in a grocery store in that section where people who don't cook go to get ready-made meals. It was right at that level. Service- Two or three stars. Mediocre. I've been here once before, btw, and that experience was probably an overall 3-star. This time was right before a show at the convention center next door. You'd think that maybe the restaurant would have been prepared for a crowd? Apparently not, since our food was slow to come (the table next to us had both of their steaks comp'ed due to slow service and not being cooked as asked). When I asked for a wine list, the server stated that he would "try to find one", and it took awhile. And the restaurant was probably only about 60% full. I mean, if I'm going to wait forever for my food, at least let me be drinking while I wait! The appetizer arrived with our food, btw. Love that... Ambiance: Five Stars. The restaurant looks nice. Get your act together, Smokehouse! It would be nice if we could count on a nice meal before a show without having to Uber to and from the hotel/venue for it.

I will say that you could probably get away with sharing the 12 oz brisket between two people. The sides are designed to be shareable so it's pretty much built in. Brisket was tender, and sides complimented the meat. The server was very kind. Highly recommend as a date night spot.

The brisket poppers did not contain brisket. After we have been there for so long, we were then told they were out of buffalo sauce for the Buffalo chicken salad. The pork chops were bland and the portion of Mac and cheese tasted odd and was tiny. Chicken fried steak was okay.

FYI, order your drinks with an appetizer and your main course and dessert all at once. Just ask several to wait 5-10 to put in main course and same with dessert. FROGS LEGS are to die for!!

It was packed but we found a table. She warned us that they were so busy that the food would be slow. She was right, but that's OK. My Swiss mushroom burger was so good! The spicy fries with jalapeño ketchup were awesome! I don't drink much soda, but they have Dublin Root Beer, which I love! My two refills added way too many calories! If your not on the clock, they do have beer and margaritas. Oh, and don't forget the free peanuts while you wait on your food. Winner! So, I guess Grumps is back in our rotation, at least for a while.
