Smoke Joint
“Very casual atmosphere and good service.”
“On another note, their "lil piggy market" next door has good bread (NOT made by them) and good coffee, except they don't open before lunchtime.”
“The mac & cheese was yummy too (it's actually cellentani & cheese) and a filling portion.”
“First visit: eat in: 2.5 hours-rude waitress-rude host-remade order 2 times due to lack of menu items-still didn't get the full order-no comps”
“Smoke Joint has great food, the mac and cheese parallels blue smoke in the "creaminess-factor" but other than that, the experience was disappointing. The woman who took our order had no idea what she was doing, maybe the fumes had gotten to her, but even ”
“you know those "Im sorries" you say when your not sorry, like those rude "Im sorries" that people say to cut you off”
“Excellent ribs, at a fair price.”
“Best Smoke meat I've had for a very long time”View Less
Smoke Joint - what's up with the Brooklyn Wings?. so disappointed with my last order there on 12/26/11...the Brooklyn wings (now $7.50) was not as good as in the past, there were whiskers of feathers missed (nor thoroughly cleaned) and they were barely cooked...the flavor was so blah...just a hint of smoke flavor in the watered down bbq sauce...the bleu cheesed was their own mayoinaise mix and the fries..such a small portion now! food has changed for the worse. bad move.…
great food, bad service and HEALTH VIOLATION. I loved this place with all my heart. The chopped chicken bbq sandwich is great, the mac and cheese is good and so are the seasoned fries. It quickly became one of my favoirte spots in BK! Until i read their health violations which they received during their last inspection on 5/09. I cant eat here anymore until they clean this place up! its not healthy :-(…
I was Mayor here until Sam F. ousted me. enjoy it while it lasts Sam F.
Why oh why aren't these people educated on service?.
First visit: eat in: 2.5 hours-rude waitress-rude host-remade order 2 times due to lack of menu items-still didn't get the full order-no comps
2nd visit: takeout: they say 15 minutes-I get there in 15, it takes 30. the pickup window isn't taking payments- the bar says to pay at the pick up window- the line's backed up from pick up customers and the guy at the bar can't work the computer- they give me dirty looks (maybe they recognized me from last time)
3rd visit: deliver: I order $14.63 of food (same order as my pick up but for some reason a dollar less?), she says they have a $25 min for delivery- I say just charge me 15, it's 37 cents short-she says she can't do that- I say ask the boss-she comes back very disgruntled and says this one time only-as I'm saying bye she just hangs up....…
I tried....
I went to Smoke Joint when they first opened & I was underwhelmed because I'm southern & I can cook. But, I live in the neighborhood & it's crowded everytime I go by, so last night I decided to try
it again. I got the Brooklyn Wings & Fries. Well, the fries were good. The last time I ate at Smoke Joint, a few years ago, I felt like the meat had a weird taste, like lighter fluid. Last night, when I bit into the wing, I tasted the same thing. It wasn't pleasant. I know they use a smoker. I don't know how smokers operate at all, I just know that the aftertaste in my mouth reminded me of too much lighter fluid. Not pleasant.
But, other people seem to like it so maybe it's just me.…
