The Smithy is a restaurant that offers a nostalgic 70's steakhouse atmosphere. It stands out for its high-quality steaks, cooked to perfection, and the classic addition of a salad bar. The restaurant has a solid menu with a variety of options, including a French onion soup starter. The soup's flavor is praised, but the cheese used is noted to be possibly mozzarella instead of the traditional Gruyère.
The Smithy has earned a reputation for consistency, impressing diners time and again. It frequently ranks high among the top dining experiences. The entrees, such as the porterhouse and filet, are cooked to order and served with a well-prepared baked potato. However, there is an additional charge for toppings like bacon and chives.
Dessert options, like the brownie sundae, are a delightful throwback. The service is commendable, with friendly and helpful waitstaff. The establishment could make minor improvements in some areas, such as their cappuccino preparation. Still, the positive aspects of The Smithy, such as the delicious food and welcoming ambiance, far outweigh any shortcomings. A return visit is highly recommended.
