Crystal River Smokehouse & Grill is a popular spot for many, known for its satisfying portion sizes that are especially good for those watching their weight. The beef brisket with beans and macaroni remains a popular choice, and the meat platter offers moist and tender meats with a variety of sauces. The smoked mac & cheese and smoked turkey sandwich are highly recommended, with some customers calling the smoked turkey the best they have ever had. The restaurant also offers a veterans discount. Despite simple, down-home decor, the place impresses with its great smoked foods, including brisket on a waffle, which customers say is a fantastic combination. The service is consistently praised for being attentive and helpful, and the owner is described as very pleasant to speak with. While some sides, like fries, may not be as fresh as desired, the overall experience is positive enough for visitors to want to return. Give it a try and leave happy!
