9. Smokey John's Bar-B-Que and Home Cooking

Disappointed
First, I must say that the young gentleman who prepared my food was very caring and professional. He really wanted to offer me a positive food experience. I ordered ribs and brisket with potato salad, and beans and asked for the more loose cut, marbled beef. The potato salad and beans were okay. Some of the ribs were a bit dry to chew. The brisket was disappointing-dry, flavorless, sort of like paper. I only ate a small bite of everything. The young gentlemen sensed that I wasn't enjoying it, and offered for me to get something else. I thanked him. Unfortunately, the manager (owner?) stopped by next and told me that he won't serve fatty beef because it's unhealthy. So, does that mean that his ribs are health food? He walked away and loudly told the other workers that 'She wanted FAT brisket!' Embarassed, I got up and left. I am unemployed, and I saved up to have a once-a month meal out. Now I am out of 14.00 and I have no food. I will not return. I've been to places where I didn't enjoy the food, yet I at least enjoyed the great customer service. Fortunately, there are some really good BBQ places available in Dallas

I love everything on the menu! Most of the time I order the stuffed potato and I can't resist the cobbler! Rent loads you up with the food. I've been going there so often that I know Smokey, Gloria, Rent and Brent and say hello to all. Gloria has a wonderful laugh, Smokey has a heart of gold, Rent is very professional but very friendly. Brent is young and very cute and smiles all the time. Give Smokey John's a try and you'll never go anywhere else for BBQ.

Best ribs and potato salad I have ever eaten! Casual, friendly atmosphere with some of the best home-cooking you can eat.

Your food taste good.

The best, bar none. Try the smokin' garlic sausage.

Food is delicious, and atmosphere is great. Smokey John himself is a great guy, by the way! Home-cooked ...mmmmm…
