    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.

    Wonderful restaurant! Being greeted and seated immediately upon arrival... our server was over in a flash and greeted us. Our group of 7 ordered many dishes, the grilled salmon, burgers and the jumbo garlic noodles which were to die for! All the dishes were beautiful and delicious... and the wine was paired very well. And of course, I have to mention the cornbread with a mild sauce on top was incredible and the 3rd time we've ordered it. It's like desert before your meal! I'm looking forward to next time and will definitely be ordering the Smocked BBQ ribs. Whether stopping by for lunch or dinner... do yourself a favor and visit them soon. International Smoke is becoming one of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. Bon Appetite!

    The service was terrible. Requested a larger table, was put in a cramped 2 seat table. Slow service. Then moved us to the bar where the service was even less responsive. Would not go back.
