I’ve always had amazing experiences every time I’ve come into this restaurant, but today changed that for me. Our server LeAnn seemed less than thrilled to be our waitress. Every single time she came to our table when we weren’t ready to order it seemed as though we were putting her out. We received our food, and had to put in our appetizers order with the food runner (who gave us amazing service by the way. Only reason why this isn’t a 1 star review. Wish we could’ve tipped him instead) then she finally decided to check in on us. Never once asked us how our food was tasting or if we needed anything else. Wanted to put in a drink order as well and wasn’t able to until my meal was almost all the way finished. It seemed like we were the only one of her tables that was being treated this way.

Absolute gem of a lunch spot in downtown Longmont. Superb service from Sasha, she really holds it down with a smile, love her. Definitely coming back to see her and eat more delicious food. Those onion rings though ?
My girlfriend and I went there for the first time and our food was really good and a good service by Megan. My pulled pork sandwich was piled high and so tender and the sauces made it even better. My girlfriend loved her cat fish sandwich and her side, colored greens. Megan was so nice and helpful. We're coming back.

Bring your visitors here! Food speaks for itself. Pulled pork, green beans, and baked beans were 10/10. Service was quick, kind, and efficient.
Good bbq, large portions, good price, good sauce, great staff.

First off, great server! She was friendly, knowledgeable, generous, and patient. 5 stars!Secondly, the atmosphere was great. Very chill, street parking was sufficient, and the music was not overbearingly loud or obnoxious.Thirdly, the food! Yum!! We prefer vinegar-based BBQ, which this was not, but it was still very delicious. The ribs fell right off the bone! Pulled pork was just okay; not dry, but not exceptional. Cornbread is hard to mess up.As for sides, the coleslaw was very typical and the potato salad had a nice dill (or some sort of herb) touch to it. We liked the white mac and cheese with some crunchy crust to it, but overall felt the sides weren’t exceptional or bad—some noteworthy aspects, but overall are just kind of typical, satisfactory BQQ sides.Now, the appetizer tray?! That was delicious. Just get that and don’t both with much else. The fried fish was juicy and soft. The onion rings were PERFECTION (if you like onion rings, which I love); whole, juicy, tender onions that just break with your first bite, coated in a sweet batter that crumbles delightfully in your mouth! The wings were excellent—crispy on the outside without gratuitous breading or sauce. The sliders were very straightforward with a soft bun, and two sliders let you sample the meats (brisket and pulled pork!). The fried pickle was thick and juicy with a nice crumb breading, so delicious.We got so much food that we had leftovers for two more meals. And that’s just with ordering (1) appetizer tray and (2) two-meat plate. It is very delicious.Sauces were very sweet in general, just an FYI. Even the “spicy” one was not spicy.
Love this place! The team is so much fun and the BBQ is mouthwatering. I love the pork belly but my kids are crazy for the wide variety of side dishes.

Brisket was amazing

Never had a bad meal! Thursday is prime rib special-yum! Burgers, chicken, green chili, onion rings, spiced apples, pecan pie- all good!
I’ve visited this restaurant several times with my parents. It’s their favorite go to BBQ place. The portions are great and the food is always really tasty. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about items on the menu. I will definitely be going back.
Me and my partner were passing through and thank god we won’t have the chance to come back. Food was not good at all meat was rubbery, and after serving us fried pickles as an appetizer they told us they were out of pickles when we asked for them to put on our sandwiches. Also my girlfriend ordered the chicken sandwich and got pulled pork instead. Very disappointed with our visit, at least our server was nice but forgetful. Would not recommend going here. They disgraced North Carolina pulled pork by naming their sandwich after it.

Sasha is the GOAT, will always come back here because of her. The best green tea shots and the plus side is the food being beyond A-1.

The food at Smokin Dave’s always hits the spot! And getting served by Sasha is the best bonus!
