The Smoking Oak Reviews
Pretty good brisket
Excluding being a little confused by the "drive through" signage for a non-existent feature, I would give it an almost perfect score. Food was hot and delicious! Service was excellent. Took off a point for the atmosphere because of the noise. While it was clean and the decor was right on, the concrete floor, glass and tin walls, etc. provided no noise dampening, so as it got busy the noise level increased exponentially. Still worth it. Best BBQ I've had in the RGV.
Best BBQ ever ?
The Smoking Oak offers some of the best BBQ in the RGV, with delicious brisket and ribs that never disappoint. The potato salad is great, and the sweet tea is a must-try. While the BBQ sauce may not be everyone's favorite, the hot and delicious food, along with excellent service, make it worth a visit. The noise level can get high due to the decor, but overall, it's still the best BBQ around.
