    They were out of several top items at our 7:15 dinner, wouldn’t substitute rice rice for potatoes-the waiter said he had to ask the chef-never returned with an answer, and dish served by another person who said they ran out of rice, or didn’t make it that day-although it’s on the menu. Salmon dishes came out lukewarm, it took 20 minutes to get our drink order, there was a party going on in the bar area with screaming and crazy loud noise, and the restrooms were dirty and out of TP in ladies room. Very disappointing and would not return or recommend-way over priced for such a poor experience. Also, the Mai Tai drink in the SPAM can that is highlighted on the website is no longer available-false advertising. Very disappointed!

    International Smoke house is always a great experience! The food is consistently delicious. The hostess that greeted us was super nice, and we decided to sit at the bar before our dinner, but we ended up staying at the bar and enjoying cocktails and bar bites. It was overall a wonderful experience.

    In six years this restaurant has somehow gone from just below Michelin-star quality to a Red-Robin version of its former self. Obviously Covid was hard on all of us, but Int’l Smoke is no longer for us. We’d never have recognized it if it weren’t for the wooden wall.

    I think that type of cuisine wasn’t our favorite even tho it’s an interesting concept. Also the booth was too small and they would not move us. It was very loud.
