Smoque & Bones

The food is good, I like the music they had playing, and the overall aesthetic of the restaurant was really nice. The table is a little small but we did order quite a lot of food for two. The portions are very shareable. Their brisket is really soft, the pulled pork and the ribs were superb. The sides and the cocktails were pretty good too. Their coleslaw was our dinner favourite. My s/o disliked ribs but the ones here made him change his mind. It's a nice place to enjoy barbeque! There is street parking but this street can get a little packed.

Absolutely loved Smoque N Bones. Food was delicious and they had great beers on tap. Got a couple of different combo platters so we could try a lot of stuff. I do agree with a couple of other viewers that the ribs and the mac and cheese are surprisingly not that good. The mac and cheese is creamy but not cheesy. And the ribs are kind of tough. Definitely not fall off the bone. You would think they'd be staples. But they were more than made up for by the sausage wings, chicken and onion rings. And the pulled pork is probably the best I've ever had. Loved the barbecue and mustard sauces. The portions are also very generous.

Our compliments to the chef and team for the tasty meal. Our server was nice and made some great suggestions. The music was an interesting choice for a BBQ smoke house but had fun guessing the classic tunes. The only issue for me was that the AC was cranked a bit too high. Overall i would go back to try some more ribs😁

Ordered ribs and salad ahead of time, and they prepared it exactly on time. Staff were super friendly and accommodating. Excellent quality of ribs! Superb texture on the ribs and the sauce was also on point. The side we ordered, beet salad, tasted quite fresh. Parking is a bit tough, but then again it is Queen St… All in all, would visit again, perhaps for a dine-in next time.

Incredible! My partner and I were craving BBQ and we honestly took a risk on this place since we did not know it. It was a bit on the pricier side but it was so worth it! The food is real BBQ, not “bbq style” like most places nowadays where they just add BBQ sauce and call it BBQ. At Smoque n Bones, the meats are cured, smoked, grilled, barbecued in house. The entire first floor is basically a giant smoke shop haha The meat and spices on all food including the sides, fries, and coleslaw salad is spot on. I highly recommend getting the sampler for 2 as it includes a little bit of everything and 3 sides! Really good value for what you get. The alcohol selection is very nice as well and the establishment decor has cottage outdoor family barbecue vibes. I haven’t come across a similar restaurant in Canada, these BBQ spots are usually better in the US. Great service, good food, highly recommend going on a weekday when it’s not PACKED. Thank you!!!

The food is great but they should really work on their customer service. This is the second time where there are lots of free, unreserved tables, but they tell you you can't sit there and that you gotta eat at the bar. But nobody takes your order there either. The first time it needed a lot of persistence to at least get a table downstairs, the second time I just left. I'd rather spend my money somewhere where customers are actually wanted.
