Blue Smoke is awesome
Blue Smoke rocks. The service is great and the macaroni and cheese is amazing. I would eat there everyday if I could!

Disappointing
Nothing here was really that great. The food seemed more like something I'd get at a rotisserie fast food place for 1/5 the price. The mashed potatoes were only okay, the fried chicken had barely any meat, the biscuits were greasy, and the macaroni and cheese tasted like it was made with Velveeta. I hope the jazz is good because that's all these guys got going for them.

It's a neighborhood favorite
Danny Meyer and BBQ--food is great, service is great, ambiance is great. A perfect casual restaurant!

Good and Fun
I'm no BBQ expert but I know good food and I've always had good meals at blue smoke. Ribs are good, pulled port is great, and even their seafood dishes are nice. Unlike other reviews, I think the service is excellent - fast, prompt, and quick to refill your drink (soda refills free). Not least, the place is a blast for larger groups. It's loud, you eat with your hands and people leave smiling.

Blue smoke is smoki'n good
Been there three times this year and i just keep going back for more. The ribs are great and the wings are too. Bourbon and beer lists are great.

Your Not In Texas anymore Bubba
The brisket was so hard and dry you have to use a steak knife to cut it. The Mint Juleps where made up of lots of sugar-water, mutilated mint leaves and little bourbon. If you have never had real B-B-Que then I guess you won?t know the difference.

Not recommended
After reading good reviews here, 3 friends and I gave it a try. The babyback ribs were not very good. They tasted like sawdust and their half rack portion was more like a 1/4 rack. The 2 of us that ordered them sent them back and asked for Kansas CIty ribs which the waitress said would be better. Not by much. The coleslaw was also poor. My friend ordered fried chicken, another disappointment, the mashed potatoes were mediocre, the chicken for the price they charge - tasteless and boring. Overall the experience here was unacceptable.
