Wonderful! Absolutely absolutely wonderful. The staff were great. View from the outdoor seating was perfect. My food- could not have been more perfect!

Fantastic BBQ! The ribs are outstanding. My husband said they were probably the best he’s ever had. Fall off the bone, meaty, and moist.
I had the Frito Pie will pulled pork. Delicious!

The food was actually excellent, but the service provided, mainly by the cashier or the person taking orders, is indifferent to whether an order is correct or not. According to the menu, the full rack of 10 ribs comes with sides and other extras. Well, that person charged for the extra sides, but when the food arrived at the table, those sides were missing. I asked him about it, and his attitude was practically saying that he didn't care. A few moments later, he arrived with the sides and in a somewhat mocking tone (almost throwing them on the table and saying if I needed more, he could give them to me for free. When I was simply asking about the order I paid for, which they charged me extra for without having to charge me and which they simply owed me, and it's not a bill, because I could say it was cheap, around $116, which they charge from the start without having the product. I wouldn't go back.

So good. Had the frito pie (small) great portions. Taste was amazing. My husband had the burnt edges special and meat platter. He enjoyed that. I tried his side of the street corn riblets and that alone Id get again. I’ll be dreaming of that. Can’t wait to make a trip back!

The ribs were flavorless the chicken was flavorless even adding lots of BBQ sauce did not help give it a better taste it needed more Smokey more seasoning
Great customer service from front and bar employees great atmosphere I conversed with the locals great place to catch a game and drink a cold one

This place has the best loaded frito pie I’ve ever had. The ribs were amazing too! But I’m really going to talk about how good the frito pie was, every bite was mouth watering. I wanted to not be full just to keep eating!

A Keeper--all the way around!

We came into Mariposa around 1 pm looking for a place with good food and maybe a beer 🍺. Smokin' Oak BBQ looked like it would work, and it did not disappoint! Well worth the stop!

We ordered a 3 meat BBQ platter, but for beer we needed to go next door to the Twisted Cedar Local Tap House, which is connected with the Smokin' Oak. This is convenient, as both businesses feed customers to each other. There was outside seating in front of the Smokin' Oak or indoor seating (6 tables) at the Twisted Cedar; we opted for indoor seating. The guys in the Smokin' Oak cheerily took our order stating they'd deliver it to where we were sitting.

The Twisted Cedar had a variety of beers, but only three on tap. Through the friendly, vivacious beer tendress, my wife discovered that they also had a variety of meads. She ordered a flight of mead while I opted for the pilsner (I was driving...). The flight of mead had 4 very interesting varieties of mead: tropical, berry, apple, and regular. My wife liked them all, but preferred the apple and berry.

Our BBQ was delivered to our table, and we dug in to brisket (Yum!), tri-tip (Yum!), chicken (Yum!), coleslaw (good [I'm a slaw snob...]), and potato 🥔 wedges (Yum!). There were 4 different types of sauces to enjoy with the BBQ (Yum!). The pilsner went very well with the food, as did the mead. My wife also had a red ale, which was good.

We left very satisfied with our meal, service, and drink. If you’re ever in Mariposa looking for a good place to eat, you can't go wrong with BBQ from the Smokin' Oak and drinks from the Twisted Cedar.

This is honestly some of the best BBQ in the entire state. The staff are professionals and they know what they’re doing. Prices are super reasonable, and you can bring your food into the mead taproom next door.
