What brian archer doesn't like about Black Dog Smoke Ale House:
They did a great job . We had a huge party. Got us all seated pretty close to each other in a reasonable time frame. The brisket queso was disappointing to me . Not much cheese in there . More like brisket and gravy the way it tasted. The Texascaviar wasn't that great either . Really bland . I ordered the two meat special . I thought the brisket was really good . Thehot polish was ok . Lots of bbq sauces to choose fr... View all feedback. What Liv Durica likes about Black Dog Smoke Ale House:
The smells in this place were amazing! The beef brisket sandwich was delicious and I really liked the hot Georgia peach sauce. The sides, on the other hand, were not that great. I tried the elote and another at the table tried the Mac n cheese and they were both pretty bland. View all feedback.

This was our first time at the new location. It’s a bit odd of a space. Food seems a bit less spectacular as I remember the old space. Service was good.

First time. Solo diner. Brisket was excellent. Loved the smoked sweet potato. This place will stay on my list for whenever I am in town.
