We had steak and grilled shrimp and both were cooked to perfection. The huge homemade onion rings and the dipping sauce were delicious. All of the food came out of the kitchen promptly and hot. There is an outdoor dining patio as well. We have absolutely nothing but good things to say and I highly recommend it. We drove an hour to get here and it's definitely worth the drive! I thought for a minute not to let the secret out about this place but it wouldnt be fair to deprive other people :)

The place was as pretty calm and quiet, but it was a weekday lunch. It had a relaxed vibe, but I can imagine it being the exact opposite in the evening. The restaurant itself is spacious, and there's a fully loaded bar in the back will lift your spirits if that's what you're into, I kept things simple and ordered a burger with onion rings. The tall guy who took my order was as friendly as they come. I couldn't finish my burger, but every bite was excellent. The Smokin' Bull is definitely on my "return-to" list.

But to my surprise, this restaurant served fresh seafood on top of burgers! I initially came here for the burgers but ended up getting the seafood instead. I ordered a plate of half dozen grilled shrimps with a side of rice and french fries. Shrimps were well-cooked and perfectly seasoned. My boyfriend got a grilled trout plate and some snow crabs. He said the grilled trout was a bit too salty. But the snow crabs tasted great. They were extremely juicy and fresh. Interior deco reminded me of In n Out. Even the menu design looked really similar to In n Out's menu. There is a drive-thru if you don't want to go inside the restaurant. All in all, this place was delicious. Food are relatively cheap. And great casual atmosphere!

Their burgers and pulled pork sandwich are great, too. I have to eat gluten-free and dairy-free, but they're not great about making sure there is no cross-contamination in the food. The servers are very nice and try hard, though. They're often short-handed, and sometimes they play their jukebox way too loud. Otherwise, it's a fine place to eat.

We were here during the lunch period and it was only half full. We were waited upon right away, had our drink choices within moments. My wife chose the link sausages with potato salad and baked beans. She didn't care for the potato salad, liked everything else. I had sliced pork, onion rings and green beans. The pork was tender and delicious! I liked the onion rings, although the batter was a bit thick. The green beans were a bit over cooked and had a different taste that was sweeter than I'm used to. The wife had banana pudding, which she said was very good. I had the lemon cream pie, it was very good. I couldn't eat all the whipped cream on top though. Bathroom was very clean, the whole restaurant looks brand new inside. Light colors, good lighting, and a new layout make this a enjoyable venue. The staff was friendly.

Saturday June 27th 5:15 party of two. The gravel parking lot was full. The water was choppy. There was no wait. I ordered a ML while Jason was in the RR. I was informed that the restaurant didn't serve liquor. Sad face. Jason had the same sad face when he tried to order his own. lol We took 5 minutes to order: Jason: crab cakes $15 Me: CFS $16 All entree's are served with bean soup and unlimited salad bar The crab cakes were a little small but Jason enjoyed them . He ate everything. My CFS was so salty I couldn't even try to eat it. I flipped it over and the batter may appear burned, (it's dark!) but it is all seasoning. I boxed it up but ultimately tossed it in the garbage. Because of the hush puppies (free), and beans. And the salad bar ... I didn't leave hungry. Just disappointed. The salad bar is okay. It included salad fixings as well as potato salad and coleslaw. The restroom was 87°, but okay clean. But in the end it was too far away and didn't serve beer. We won't be back.
