We had a catered Mother's Day celebration food order from them. Everyone loved the food. Mr. Brown, thank you for being so kind and accommodating with the menu. The chicken, ribs, and yams were delicious. We often order food from there when we visit our in-laws...you guys never fail to disappoint us.
Great food Great, happy hour prices, friendly staff 😀
Just ordered from here for the first time tonight 5/17/25 and the food was DELICIOUS!!!! Pork ribs, potato salad, garlic mash potatoes, collard greens, mac n cheese, corn on the cob, cornbread and chocolate cake.....all were awesomely good although the collard greens had something in it that was a little grainy like sand. Other than that I really enjoyed the food and definitely will order from here again!!!
All-round great spot for a beer/ drink and food!! Come to hang out or bring your family!
The food is very bland. The food containers are small as are the portions. I was very disappointed. I can tell that no love was put into making the food.
We had a great time at Smoke BBQ Pit. The food was excellent, and the service was good. The decor needs a little work. I would highly recommend this place for its low and slow BBQ and great drinks.
food is very delicious
Beef ribs are phenomenal almost back to how they were b4 the new owners took over
Went with my boyfriend whom is white , I am Afro American. I walked in and sat down , no hello , no greetings welcome , no nothing . As soon as he came into the restaurant, the Indian man RAN over to the table to take orders and ask about drinks . I sat there alone before he came into about 3/4 mins and they didn’t even look my way . I was like oh ok , I see what’s going on here . I never told my boyfriend but he said they do like to kiss blanco azz .
great food

Good food good service fast and efficient I recommend
Friday nights are the best we enjoyed ourselves last Friday. The music was on point, food and drinks also
Food isn’t as good as before. Is this place under new mgmt?
I recently ordered from The Smoke Pit, expecting a satisfying Southern meal based on their appealing photos and online menu, but unfortunately, my experience was profoundly disappointing. I ordered the fried shrimp, macaroni and cheese, and candied yams, and I wish I could say something positive—but the entire meal is now sitting in the trash, and I’ve lost my appetite altogether.
The fried shrimp tasted alarmingly off. They were soft and had a spoiled taste, suggesting they had been left sitting for far too long. Fresh seafood has a certain bounce and crispness, and this sadly missed the mark entirely. The macaroni and cheese was even more underwhelming; it had the consistency of processed Velveeta and lacked any of the creamy, homemade appeal one would hope for. Lastly, the candied yams were a sugary, hard mess, with no tenderness or balance in flavor—just cloying sweetness and an unpleasant texture.
Establishments like this shouldn’t put out glossy, carefully staged photos if they can’t even come close to delivering on taste and quality. As a customer, I feel misled, and I'm left with a lingering aftertaste that honestly makes me want to rinse my mouth out. I won’t be returning, and I advise others to think twice before ordering here. Certainly! Here’s a line you can add to the end:
To make matters worse, I feel like I've completely wasted my money on food that was nowhere near worth the $35 price
