Smokehouse Bar And Grill

We thought by the Yelp listing that the Smokehouse Bar and Grill in Kingsburg CAWas a new restaurant. Well. I guess it is. They existed under the same name at a prior nearby location, but let me say, it was a new dining experience at a new restaurant for us today (December 29. 2024). New look, new menu. Clean. Comfortable. Definitely on the right track to success.The also have a new smoker. The big outdoor pit is gone and has been replaced by an indoor smoker, with which I am not too familiar (more about this later).My wife ordered a tri-tip wrap with a macaroni and cheese side. HUGE wrap. LOTS of meat. I ordered a brisket sandwich, with Cole slaw. Again LOTS of meat, but no smoke flavor could be discerned on either meat. I think that new smoker has to have the smoke turned up (or on). After a discussion with our server regarding their brisket chili, and learned that it contained beans, she brought me a sample which I found to be delicious. It has a few, not many, beans and the flavor and spiciness was spot on. I ordered a large order to go. The sauces were basic - ketchup plus a little. Both were way too sweet for me. Even the spicy one was more sweet than hot.The sides were both good - I especially liked the Cole slaw which was slightly creamy and contained the flavor of something I couldn't ascertain. Both sides did need a bit of a perk but a bit of salt and pepper did the trick.All said, I have to rate this place about a 4 star rating , but believing the little bugs I mentioned are "new store pains" and will soon be overcome I'll go 5 stars. Just get some smoke on the meat please.

A co-worker and I decided to come here for lunch and give it a try. Let me just say that this place isn't going to last long. There are better choices in Kingsburg and Selma than this place. First of all, how do you not have RIBS? This is what a BBQ place is known for. So we both had to settle for tri-tip and brisket instead. NOT IMPRESSED!! We then got drinks and were only offered a refill at the very end of our meal. Boy, you guys have a lot to learn. Needless to say, we will not be coming back here; instead, we'll have pizza.If I could give you a -5 stars, I would. Good luck!

12/23/24 Hot and New! Must try! 2 meat combo ordered. Chicken & ribs ordered. Unfortunately they are out of ribs. Tri-tip instead. An extra chicken on the side with baked beans and potato salad for the sides. An extra cornbread too. The worker was kind and happy to give recommendations. Spicy BBQ sauce added too! I went in to pick it up. This is their new location from the river where they were before. Very nice! One side looks like the main bar and the other has booth seating. The worker was kind and the order was ready. Received with good day wishes! Lunchtime! Plenty to split.Order split. Chicken was tasty and even better with their spicy BBQ sauce. Tri-til was tender and Greatb Potato salad 1/2 had a lot of flavor & Delicious! Baked beans were Great too with nice BBQ flavor. Cornbread muffin was tasty & Great! I had leftovers too! Mother said hers was Really Great! She definitely favored the potato salad & tri-tip! Good service and GREAT lunch! Highly recommended! Hopefully next time, they'll have ribs!

Just opened at their new location. Had half rack of rib plate and left stuffed. Food was great. Nice inside.

First time here. I was hoping for a steak for my birthday. 01-04 -25 I had a pastrami sandwich. :( It was okay. My husband and friends enjoyed there dinner . Our meal did come fast enough. Atmosphere felt cold. And it sounded like the smoke detector going off every so often. Poor cook. LOL Nice to have places to go for a fast meal.

We all came here on a random week night a few weeks ago. The food is pretty good I guess. But it's not cozy in there. It has a cold feeling like no atmosphere. It's hard to describe. We probably won't be back to relax or anything I'll do take out orders if we crave bbq but that's far and in between. I miss when it was Salazar's. It had a nice atmosphere

I ordered lunch today for me and a coworker, this is the primary reason they say watch what you say when working...one of the sandwiches we had ordered to be cut into 3-4 pieces. However as I was waiting they were making jokes about the sandwich being cut into the pieces and one says oh well they can make do. I'm not saying this to be bad however there's no need for all the other comments that weee made about cutting a sandwich into 3-4 pieces. If you can't do it, no big deal there's no need to make a big deal about it. Great food just disappointed in the attitude of the back workers due to the comments that were made.

Went here for lunch since I work one day a week in town. The food was great. Ordered grilled chicken breast with sides of baked beans and green beans. The food came out in under 10 minutes. Chicken was cooked to perfection and was moist, tender, with excellent flavors. The sides were incredible. Service was great. I have no idea why people are so hard on some barbecue places and then overrate others like food trucks. This place is 5- star all the way, all day long. Prices are on point for the area and quality of the food. Sat in the bar area and the bar looks great and is very cozy and bright! (see photos).

The place looks great Freddy. Great job. I can't wait to come check out the food!!!!!

nice people, good service. Had a tr tri-tip sandwich and the meat had no taste. just bread and meat, no lettuce or tomatoes included
