The food me and my girlfriend made us both ill. I got the ribs, not tender, couldn't remove the meat from the bone easily. The ribs had so much salt it made me feel sick at the end. Girlfriend's brisket sandwich had no flavor, the meat had no flavor. The only food that was good was the cheese fries and the mac-and-cheese. The sides were better than the meat. Also we both felt like the food and drinks were overpriced, I didn't get any alcohol but the check was still $50+.

Wonderful atmosphere ?
Food was good, not great though.
Had the pork nachos and wife had the baked (barely) potato with brisket. We didn't like the baked beans that came with the brisket plate and asked for something to replace it and the waitress said, "yeah, that's not really something we do here." ...??? I asked for lemon for my drink three times and it never came. Got an upcharge of five bucks to have my nachos half pork/ half brisket. Grrrr
I would not recommend nor will we return.

What a great meal! We asked our waitress (Natalie) for recommendations, and they were spot on. You really need to try the sliced brisket - tender, moist, and melt in your mouth. The service was awesome, and I will definitely go back again while I am visiting Bentonville. Don't miss out on this treasure! And the prices were reasonable too!

We were sat the waitress ask what we wanted to drink she brought the drinks and then went and sat down in a booth for about 10 min with 2 guys. Then she came and got the order we had side salad and she didn't bring me my dressing or crackers had to go and get her from the booth she was sitting in again.
When we got our cheese sticks they were cold and not good.
My food was ok not real hot
Husband's ribs were good. Cole slow was not any good tasted like it was sour. Waited another 20 mins after eating for our check. Please tell your waitress they need to do a better job. I would have left a better tip but she didn't deserve it. Sorry maddie

It's the first time I eat at this restaurant and I loved the barbecue ribs. I was satisfied with the taste of all the food. In addition, we were served by a very old lady who was extremely kind. She is so sweet and loving. People like her should be paid very well and leave a good one of their own. We will return just for her. Oh, and also for the food. The place looks nice, clean and quiet. It has an old touch that makes you feel a little bit like you're in the past. There is free parking and it's not difficult to find parking.

Great classic BBQ joint. Onion rings made RIGHT. Brisket is on point. The half smoked chicken is more than worth the money.

I have been enjoying Smokin Joes since I moved here 2 1/2 yrs ago on a monthly basis. Went Wednesday and was extremely disappointed the food was not only cold but not truly cooked. All five of us were not happy. 2 of us got the 2 meat plate w salad. Salad was warm. Sausage was still cold and cooked. Pork was cold like leftover since night before. 2 kids with us also did eat their Mac n Cheese and pork. I was very sad. Crazy thing thing was how long it took to bring the food. It wasnt cooked. I sure hope it was because cook change and it gets better. Not sure how soon any of us will be back to find out.

I went to Smokin Joe’s on Central Ave in Bentonville about a week ago and had the best hamburger I’ve had been a long time. I will be going back there very soon and will be trying their ribs this time. I love baby back ribs, and I’ve had them there before, and I want to see if they’re still as good as they were five years ago. Can’t recommend this place highly enough they are awesome and the server was really over the top.

You don't want to go to smokin joes in Bentonville or Rogers because we was there at 11'30 today and we asked for the meatloaf and they always say they are out of it every time we go there and we was there before 2 other table's and they took there order and bought there drinks to them and they were are the same side we were oh yeah they are very high on there food, 15.95 was the cheapest plate and they get more expensive.i will not be going back there and I would suggest nobody else goes there and less you like giving your money away for something they don't have when it says it's on the menu.

Excellent food, good customer service!

Parking: Plenty of parking due to shared lot with other businesses
