Smack Shack offers a pleasant outdoor seating area and serves delicious food, although it can be a bit pricey. The restaurant has a lively atmosphere with music, which some may find a bit loud for comfortable conversation. The shrimp avocado toast, lobster tail with red potatoes, and lunch smash burger with bacon are full of great flavor, using quality meat. The fried shrimp basket with fries is very tasty, and the lobster roll is packed with lobster. The Brussels sprouts are beyond good, and the chicken and waffles are incredible. Staff is prompt and friendly, with terrific servers like Margaret. The white Rhône wine is dry and wonderful, and the patio is perfect for a beautiful day. Service remains accommodating, though some may want more clams in the linguine or chilled greens for side salads. Recently, guests have enjoyed the dinner menu, with attentive service that resolves any issues quickly, and recommend the place to friends and family. Visitors also praise the lobster bisque and stuffed salmon, noting good seasoning and quality, even for those hesitant about salmon east of the Cascade Mountain range. During restaurant week, portions are larger and offer good value, with the Key Lime pie standing out as the best dish.
