What Mark S likes about Smoque Bbq:
Smoque is a trailblazer and one of the first authentic BBQ's in the city. Luckily, many other BBQ restaurants followed in their path. If you like Carson's Ribs, don't eat here. I prefer the Ribs and Chicken and the salad is not to bad either. I find the brisket dry and overall a great place. View all feedback.
