“We recently had 2 baby showers at The Reef. I can't say enough about how great they both were. The food was great, the room upstairs was perfect! Thanks so much to Bobbie for your help, we appreciate coming early to decorate and your great communication about all the details. We highly recommend!!“

“Nathaniel cooked our food (briskett stuffed grilled cheese), it was amazing! Sam is the best server we have had so far at Smokey Bones. She suggested some delicious sauce to go with my sweet potatoes. While waiting for our food, we enjoyed playing pool. We definitely will plan for many more visits to Smokey Bones :)“

“We were seated immediately even though there were a ton of vehicles in the parking lot. Had our drinks in less than 2 minutes of sitting down. Our food came in a timely manner. The waitress was attentive without being intrusive. The manager made a brief stop to see how we were enjoying our meal.
I had the Hibachi salmon with rice and steamed broccoli. Broccoli was a little too over streamed but that's my personal preference, otherwise everything was delicious. My partner had the French Onion burger that she enjoyed.
Great experience all around. My first time there. I'll be back!“

“We had a great lunch there with my siblings. They were so accommodating for our group. Thank you so much!“

“The food was lovely. We had rack of lamb, the ribeye (everyone's favorite) and the scallops. The lamb was perfectly cooked, albeit a little tough. The scallops were a little underwhelming, portion-wise. The ribeye was the star, a perfect medium rare, with the fat and marbling perfectly rendered. The venue is tastefully decorated, romantic and while big, had plenty of cozy nooks and tables. Our server was kind, attentive and knowledgeable. The four stars are mostly due to how long it took - over 3hrs total, with an hour between appetizers and the main course. That's unreasonable.“

“I ate there while I visited my son for Thanksgiving. I had a hard time choosing because everything sounded so good. I ended up choosing the Cubby and boy was I happy that I did. It was amazing......no kidding! If I lived there It would be my go to favorite.“

“Food & service were spot on! Will definitely go back.“
