    BBQ Shepherd's pie
    Lisa G.

    My husband wanted to go here for his birthday so we decided to check it out. This place was packed on a Saturday night. It's a small place but definitely worth the wait! Service was excellent and staff were all very friendly and welcoming. Food was excellent! We will absolutely be back!

    Burnt End Tacos
    Mike S.

    I stopped in today for lunch and the tacos were amazing. I tried several of their sauces but the Chipotle and Ghost Pepper were my favorites. The only reason I haven't been there more often is that it isn't too close to home. Service each visit has been friendly and prompt. I only stopped in for lunch so I wasn't able to take advantage of their extensive beer selection. Next time I am over there I will make sure it is after work. Parking is still very limited but I was able to find a spot with no problem.

    The BBQ Shepherds pie with brisket. A must try!
    Nick C.

    The best bbq/comfort food I have had in a long time! The burnt ends were delicious and a great app to share with others. Also decided to get one of their faygo adult beverages (can't remember the name) chose the rock and rye and it was also not too sweet and very good. The star of the show was the bbq shepherd's pie with the cornbread and smoked mac and cheese and we got it with the most tender brisket. I had a couple bites and knew this would be a dish that I will think about weeks later and wish I lived closer to this restaurant. It was a combination I never thought of but it was a symphony of deliciousness. The very close second amazing entrée was the brisket burrito containing the most tender brisket, flavorful baked beans and the richness of the mac and cheese. If you are going to try them out, don't sleep on these two items, you can't go wrong! We came with a big group and our two servers were on top of it all! The manager came to check on us and everything was just on point. Also wish they would have the Alabama white sauce on the table with the other sauces. It was amazing on a salad and in the burrito but you will have to ask for a side of it. Anytime I am near romeo I will definitely be going back! I do wish they had more parking availability but besides that this place is a must try! You won't regret it.

    First time trying and really like their meat. The beer carrier for sauces is a a nice touch. Everything was good. Baked beans, slaw, Mac and cheese.

    This place is amazing! I travel all over the country and frequent BBQ restaurants. This is the best of the best. Service nailed it! The ambiance walking in was perfect! They had their sauces lined up on display and that had me eager to try them. The sauces were delivered to the table in a 6-pack container... that's classy. The sauce containers were well labeled along with a heat sauce. Smart!! The manager stopped and asked how the food was and didn't just do a fly-bye avoiding eye contact. The owner stopped by and asked us how the food was. Totally impressed with the juicy brisket, burnet ends, BBQ nachos, brisket Mac & cheese, homemade potato salad was fresh & yummy, smoked chicken wings are seasoned perfectly and juicy. I recommend to make a drive for this place.

    Chicken burrito
    Donna M.

    Decided to try this place for the brisket that a friend recommended. Went 10/28 it was busy and that is usually a good sign that food is good. Since it was Saturday we did expect a wait. Came in and was told the wait was a hour. We put our name in and my husband and I already knew what we wanted. (Neither of us eat pork and made sure the brisket was beef. I get terrible gI pains and get so sick from anything pork) We get seated in 50 minutes so that was a plus. Then sat at a table 15 or so minutes without anyone coming to our table. Finally the hostess came up and said @Has anyone come to your table yet"? We replied no. Then the waitress came over. Starts out with we are out of a few things..... Wings, something else and all items with brisket. I tell her "Well, that's about 70% of your menu. I can't eat pork or anything with pork in it and what else is there besides chicken"? I think she said some kind of turkey. I really think if a restaurant is out of that many things on their menu they should inform you and let you decide if you want to stay or leave when you check in. We would've made the choice to leave. I order the chicken burrito and made a point of saying nothing with pork on it. I get asked if I want the salsa or queso? I said queso. My husband orders the chicken street taco. I order a drink and they are out of an ingredient. At this point I'm ready to leave and just go somewhere else. I decided to just order the rum punch. He orders a beer. She comes with the drinks and the rum punch was good. Food comes out in a timely manner. She sits down the queso and said you probably don't want that because it has pork in it would you like the salsa instead? Yes, please was my reply. The waitress was busting her butt the whole time and I didn't see anyone else helping her. Plus she took the time to remember I'm allergic to pork. My husband said his chicken street tacos had absolutely no flavor. My burrito was good after I put some chipotle honey sauce on it. I told him this has a really strange flavor it's like baked beans. Sure enough it does have their baked beans in it and I'm 1000% sure they are cooked in or with some pork. I got sick before we even left the restaurant. I am so sick today and been living in the bathroom. The restaurant itself is nice the waitress was amazing and the wait was less than they said. Other than that I don't have anything positive to say. Would I come back? No, I can find good brisket elsewhere.

I'm not sure what make you think it's ok to do this as if we the customer don't know the difference between catfish and tilapia. I Never complained about the greens but y'all put too many stems in the green, this is not all that's in the small portion I was given. This is not how you retain customer. There used to be another gentleman that handled and ran things better than this, if you all don't put some respect on the entire customer experience the doors will close. I'll rather drive to 7 mile and Hayes to Lape and be satisfied than come here again and continue to leave disappointed, hungry, and feel like I waste my money. The last time I came I said it would be the last time coming , for sure today was my last dime spent with southern smokehouse. I will say the service was really good today, over the phone and in person.

    I visited as a solo diner today. Place didn't meet my expectations from what I've seen on social…read moremedia. It was still a decent experience for the most part though. It was very quiet as I was the only diner for the beginning of my visit. When I walked in I was asked if I was dining in or carrying out and if it was my first time. I said dine in and yes, this is my first time then proceeded to scan the QR code at the hostess stand. She said yes scan that and when you're ready you can order up there and we will bring it to you. I went up to the counter and ordered the lb of brisket. I went to my table and waited. It wasn't very long that she brought over 4 sauces, Cole slaw, mashed potatoes and a cucumber and tomato salad. I asked her what the sauces were. I had hot sauce, barbecue sauce, a red salsa and a green salsa and the meat came soon after. She came and checked on me a few times. She was attentive. I went back to the menu on my phone to prepare for a carryout order. I noticed that the menu showed other sauces. I asked her for the chimichurri sauce. She brought it. A larger party ended up being seated close to me. I noticed that they had additional sides and sauces. When she came back I asked her about the sides because I wasn't interested in trying the other sauces that I saw on the menu. She stated that when a person is dining alone they only get all of the sides if they request them. So now I'm a bit annoyed. If I've already told you that this was my first time then why wouldn't you at least tell me what you have and let me decide? Don't just assume what sides I want. If these sides automatically come with my food why do I have to request them anyways? If Im a first time visitor how am I supposed to know what to ask for without you giving me any options? I don't believe in wasting food so I'm ok with not just giving a solo person everything but at least make sure that I know what is available to me. Give me the option to pass on it. It's not ok for you to choose for me, especially since it comes with my meal anyways. I initially thought that some items may be swapped out on certain days so I didn't question it. Never thought that it's just not being offered to me. I placed a carryout order for a friend. After it was packed up I asked questions this time. Sadly, it was the same thing. They left out what they felt like leaving out. I had to specifically ask for the missing items. After checking the bag I realized that he didn't get the same sauces that I had, he had no hot peppers and no mashed potatoes even though I advised them that this was for someone else and I wanted to make sure they had the food that they paid for. They had no issue giving it after I asked but I shouldn't have to do that if you're advertising these things that come with your meal. Who knows what else I missed trying because I didn't know to specifically ask. Overall the space is nice and the food was good. Just make sure you ask all the questions and don't assume that you're getting everything you paid for. Sadly you might have to specifically ask for it.
