my first time here. i grew up just a few blocks from here and played on the fire escape on the building across the street. got the cops called on us for hanging underneath!! lol i was maybe 10!! this is a small diner. enough room for maybe 25 to 30 people. i had the BBQ pulled pork and fries. the bun was so fresh and the pork melted in my mouth. the coleslaw was the kicker. everything was fantastic. waitress was very attentive, prices were very reasonable. cooks did an excellent job! if your going to eat here i suggest you hurry as the place is up for sale!!

My first experience with Smokey's was prompted by a recommendation in the "QC emergency take out and delivery" Facebook group, which was setup during the Covid-19 crisis of 2020. I have driven by Smokey's many times in the past, but never stopped by until today. I called them on the phone after looking at their menu on their Facebook page, and I ordered a Giant Southern BBQ platter that came with a hefty BBS sandwich, fries, and coleslaw. All of it was FANTASTIC and I will definitely be returning here regularly. They also have a nice curbside setup with very clear signage and prompt service (I pulled up and she came right out to take my payment and provide me with the food I ordered). Everything tasted yummy, was the right temperature, and was packed well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! EDIT: Visited again and ordered the Mac Daddy, which was phenomenal (not cheap but well worth it).
