My cousin and I ordered cod baskets, hubby had french dip, cousin'shubby had prawns basket. Jasmine, server, came to us 15 min. later to deliver our waters. 15 min. after that, she came back to say there was only 1 serving available for the cod basket, really?! My cousin asked for prawns basket. Three of us ate while my cousin waited another 10 min for her food which ended up having 1 piece of cod, 2 prawns as they ran out of prawns too! Jasmine asked what she wanted to complete her meal. She ended up with a full basket of calamari next. Just ridiculous. I asked for ranch, never got it. Cousin ordered cornbread, never got it. Husband ordered mac n cheese, never got it. Another guy that worked was super sweet. Wish he was our server! Never had our waters refilled. Had to ask for cousins milk and did get it, shocker! Food was mediocre, nothing to write home about. Service was terrible.

The food was good, I just wish my burger came to me fully put together so I didn't have to assemble my own food.

Great food. Got the Barnyard Burger and I gotta say the pulled pork & chicken and hamburger patty are a winning combo. Good stuff.

Smoothboars bbq, outside of downtown Bandon, is a clean rustic establishment with a sports bar, American fare, fettuccini & seafood dishes. Brunette waitress has always been welcoming & refills our drinks without us having to flag her down…dunno about those other negative reviews, she’s pretty easy to locate if needed. Since the Fisherman’s Grotto owners retired in Charleston, we’ve been searching for a quality, non-fast food like pasta restaurant. We found it with the cooks at Billy’s Smoothboars, visiting 3x the past 6 months. My spouse orders the fish & chips or the chicken fettuccini. I have had the bbq pulled pork & the French dip sandwiches, both good, not a huge bun, not mushy nor tasteless. Saturday I ordered the chipotle prawns with grits. I thought this was a newer menu item. Looking at the reviews, I was surprised this dish has been served for several years with terrific feedback. Grit squares were flavorful & crisp, they weren’t like bland breakfast grits. The chipotle sauce was spot on. The chicken Alfredo could be enough to take home for a leftover lunch w/salad the next day. The Pina colada cheesecake is fantastic, tropical, yet texturally thicker compared to so-so grocery cheesecake slices. Great meals from our experience. Keep up the great meals Cooks, thank you Lynn (or Amy?!) for the years of service to this community even post-COVID….we will be back again soon. -The Cannons

Excellent service and food at reasonable prices. Our fries were cold, though. And they ran out of calamari at 715 PM. Drinks were strong!!!!

Good food but don’t ever apply to work there. Horrible to their employees don’t give enough training. They don’t give anyone a chance. They have low staff. They take a lot of the tips for themselves.

The wife and I stopped here for a midday meal. We each had the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw. The wife had fries and I had baked beans. The meal was good although I would have liked it if the sandwich was a little bigger but the wife felt it was the right size. I did had BBQ sauce to it after taking the photo.

Disgusting. The brisket was a slab of fat and the tri-tip was raw. We couldn't eat it. Never going back here.
