    The food was above expectation based on what we paid. I've eaten at some really expensive restaurants in town and the casino, but the food here was exceptional and cooked to perfection. My wife commented it was the best steak she'd ever had. Anywhere. Also, it pays to ask for a wine recommendation for something not on the list. We were pleasantly surprised by what was offered. Cool ambiance with a guy softly playing the sax in the corner on a Sunday night. Just made the vibe without being loud.

    This was our first time dining at The Smoke Pit, from the moment we entered staff were friendly and welcoming. Acknowledged it was a birthday and gave us a free cap, which was a great touch .The food was sensational, beef brisket melted in your mouth, sauces were delicious, sides of corn ,slaw, mac n cheese and chips all were amazing, Burgers fabulous, ribs very good. Sausages very tasty. Finished with the pie which were all fantastic. They were extremely busy but, got all of our meals out in a great amount of time, never made us feel rushed, in fact we were the last to leave, tremendous service by all staff. Perfect atmosphere great music. Well done to you all, certainly had a great night, we'll be back.
