It's a tough one to rate. The venue itself is awesome. Vibrant, clean and the furnishings are nice and modern. The variety of beers is good too with different options over multiple bars and taps.
But the food is so disappointing. When The Smoke House first opened it was awesome. But over the years it's just got ordinary. I don't know why, but the food is bland and expensive. I had a half rack of ribs that were very small (quarter rack would be more accurate) and looked like they were just boiled and then sauce put on them. Just very disappointing.
We were with a group of 16 and everyone had a story of dissatisfaction.
The food from the bistro is as to be expected. Underwhelming but not to bad.
It's unfortunate because it has been great, and could be great again. But when you're the only pub in the area, I guess you don't have to strive to be outstanding.
