With such an incognito entrance, I did not initially expect Smohk to have such delicious food. But I was fortunately mistaken! Their pulled pork was awesome, but what I really enjoyed was the brisket sandwich! Served alongside chips and my choice of bbq sauce, it made me return right back to order more the next day.
I just moved to the NC / VA area from Austin, TX. This brisket was amazing. I ordered a brisket sandwich and it was a GENEROUS portion (roughly 6 ounces!!!) Coleslaw was awesome (creamy yet slightly acidic with some celery seeds to mute it). The buns soaked up some of the brisket renderings phenomenally. I highly recommend ordering from here.
Roby and his team provided an excellent all-around experience that lived up to it's friendly, laid-back claim. I appreciated getting to see the smoker out front.Our brisket platters were excellent. Between us we sampled four sides and found each had great flavor.Will stop here next time we're in Scott's Addition.
We reached out to Smohk to cater a family birthday party and I’m grateful we did. It was worth every penny!From start to finish, we experienced hospitable guidance about portions, kind customer service, timely delivery, a great presentation, and most importantly, excellent food.
First time visitor, and they were short staffed. But the little bit of wait was worth it! We did a pulled pork sandwich with the smoked Mac and cheese, and a slider trio(pork, turkey and brisket) with baked bean sides. Everything was outstanding! Moved up to the top end of my personal"Best BBQ in RVA" list. Will definitely get "Smohk-ed" " again!
The mark of any great bbq is brisket, and this place does not disappoint. I wish I were local to explore the rest of the offerings. Support local!
Ok so I seriously never write reviews but I just love this place and I am so glad I stumbled upon this place a few years ago. It is the ONLY barbecue place I will go to (for those who know me, know this). The meat isn't too smoky, just a perfect balance with their sauces. The sides are bomb. It's hidden behind a brewery which is pretty cool if you are into that. Every interaction I have with the boss/server is so pleasant. It is the first restaurant I take people when I have visitors. I think I have said enough here. Don't walk, you better run there. God bless Smohk RVA BBQ.
Had the brisket and was very impressed. One of the owners chatted with us while we waited for our food and showed us some of the desserts he's been working on, and they looked amazing. Only reason we didn't order one right then and there is because we already had cupcakes at home. My wife and I agreed that we would definitely be returning, especially since they have a pretty good menu to choose from, so there's lots still to try!
Let me tel you something…this place is on point… great bbq, sides a drinks. A little on the pricey side but it is well worth it…trust me….
Best bbq I've ever eaten. You will have to search to find the place but your taste buds will thank you! Great service and libations also. Reasonable prices. Do not miss this culinary experience if you are around Richmond!
