Smithfield Inn

Really glad we chose The Smithfield Inn. We love the local history and we learned a LOT from Bill on the history of the Inn and the area. For such a historic building it's been taken care of very well. Had dinner the first night and both our meals were a 10 of 10. We'll be back. Well done Bill and team!Rooms: Sykes Suite was excellent.Nearby activities: Weekly Sat market is just across the street, with many local businesses steps away on Main St.Safety: Never felt any safety issues.Walkability: Right on Main Street!Food drinks: Dinner was EXCELLENT. Kudos to the chef and team (we had Salmon and Stuffed Flounder dishes).

Outstanding meal for Mother's Day. Everyone in our party of five enjoyed their dish. The menu options were varied, local and most importantly -delicious! Homemade flavors stole the show. The atmosphere was tasteful, clean and calming. Service was equally good. I spent years in front and back of house restaurant work and was very pleased from start to finish. Will definitely return.

The food was great and service was exceptional! The filet steak was cooked to perfection. Best tasting steak I've had in a long time. She crab soup was good. From the sweet tea to the dinner salad, everything was great.Service: 5/5

It was Smithfield Restaurant Week, so my wife and I decided to take advantage and dine at one of our favorite places, The Smithfield Inn. The warm atmosphere; the friendly welcoming staff; real Southern hospitality service, and the fabulous food. To put it bluntly, our meal was a deal. A 3-course adventure for $30 each. The Inn did not disappoint. 1st course, she had the prosciutto wrapped asparagus with lemon vinaigrette, two light delightful pieces of prosciutto ham wrapped around four asparagus spears. I had the crispy pork belly with ginger lime soy glaze. 5 cubed pieces of adult candy, wonderful. 2nd course, she the Mediterranean Pasta, all vegetarian: shallots, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, kalamata olives, feta cheese on linguine pasta. A tremendous bowl of deliciousness big enough for the two of us. I had the BBQ Duck Legs. Two grilled leg and thigh pieces covered in a chipotle bar-b-que sauce with mango glaze, served with smoked cabbage cole slaw. Juicy, meaty duck grilled perfectly with just a little heat on the back of your palate. The cole slaw was phenomenal in its own rite with a rich, creamy, smokey flavor. 3rd course, she had the apple crepes with cranberry reduction. I had the mini puff pastry shells with hazelnut cream in a raspberry reduction. Both were incredible. What a way to cap off a gourmet delight. Tea, tax and tip, we spent less than $100 for this lovely night out. Bravo to The Smithfield Inn.

Nice dinner out with family was disappointing since I made the mistake of ordering the Crab Cakes--I love crab cakes--there was no crab in these cakes--all filler. I will say--the surf and turf that the 3 others ordered was delicious. our drinks were good, and our waitress attentive.
