Smohk RVA BBQ

We moved to Richmond May 20th and ordered pickup here that night on a whim. Did not disappoint!Do you ever get bummed about not being able to try everything on the menu without breaking the bank? Well, here you can. Look no further than the "Bowl-style" meals - every side is basically available as a topping so you get to try a little bit of everything. Chipotle meets Southern BBQ - but obviously much better quality :)The char of the brisket was delightful and the Smokey Apple BBQ sauce had such a nice kick. The mac base was a MUST - reminded me of your classic picnic mac and cheese - and served as the perfect foundation for a bowl chock full of some other amazing textures and flavors. That crunch of the coleslaw was perfect!Looking for quick service? You got it. Looking for authentic BBQ? You got it. Surprised this place isn't the most popular BBQ in Richmond - seemed like a bit of a hidden gem when we found it. Will be coming back here for sure!

SMoHK is a little hole in the wall. If you're not looking you may miss it but once you find it you'll like it! We arrived as soon as they opened and the smell of the food being cooked was amazing. We were promptly greeted by staff and the restaurant was nice and clean. The food was good we had a large brisket sandwich and a platter with chicken, collards and Mac n cheese. It was also very good. The collard greens were perfectly seasoned and the smoked chicken and Mac n cheese were delicious. It was a great visit I would definitely recommend and return.

This place has great food!! I had the pull pork sandwich and the meat was perfect! I had the apple sauce bbq with it. Great sweet flavor sauce. My partner had the brisket and she said it was 9 out 10 good. She also had sweet potato side and it was like candy. The beans also highly recommended!!!

My employer had lunch catered by Smohk just a few short weeks ago. We had two choices of meat - chicken and pork and three sides -baked beans, Macaroni and cheese, and potato salad. Fair and honest feedback: this was not a win for me. The chicken was dry. I did like the BBQ sauce (can't recall the sauce but had apple in the name). Potato salad contained way too much mayo. The baked beans lacked flavor with an extremely loose consistency. And...the macaroni and cheese...Just noodles and a cheese sauce; similar to a Kraft Mac - no flavor. This is not a place that I'd recommend based on the description above.

This place is what you call no frills BBQ joint. But first, you will need to find it as it is tucked away in a building not directly on the street. It is a small place with a few tables. A very nice owner taking your order. And a limited menu, but really good.My family and I made our own sampler platter by ordering a brisket platter and adding a meat (Pulled Pork) with baked beans and coleslaw. We also added a 4 bone rib to our order. It was all really good. And it really hit the spot!

Small restaurant with a good selection of meats and sauces. Had the ribs and some brisket. Both were delicious.

Not the easiest place to find... in fact their T-Shirts advertise "Richmond's most obscure restaurant location"... but once you're there get ready for some AMAZING BBQ!I had "All my XXXs" and not only was the meat great (all smoked on the premises) but the sauce was h-h-h-hot! Just the way I like it. Also made by hand on premises.Reasonable prices, clean if a little small, with friendly service. Highly recommended!

My family and I was visiting for a day. Food was ok & I enjoyed the pull pork sandwich. When you come here be sure to place your order at the register and then seat yourself b/c the waiter will not know that you have ordered. Small inside & the sides needed more seasoning as it tasted bland. ( Collards & Mac)

When my GPS led me down an alley to this restaurant I was incredibly confused. Online it says "no frills" and that is for sure the truth. We had a table of 6 and all tried something different-- not a single person was disappointed with their meal. Absolutely delicious, fresh smoked barbecue! My sister got the brisket with mac and cheese and that was a real winner!The owner is also super friendly and provided great service! We will definitely be back soon!

If you're looking for good bbq give smohk a try. Both the brisket and the turkey were Smokey, tender and flavorful. Will be back!
