About this restaurant

Good for groups
Neighbourhood gem
Great for creative cocktails

Our Southern Barbeque is inspired by flavours of America’s deep south, from regions like Memphis, Texas, Kansas, and the Carolinas.

For 12 years, our kitchen has focused on Quality Scratch Cooking crafted with a whole lotta love and old-school techniques, led by Executive Chef and Pitmaster Alex Rad. Taste perfectly smoked meats, and authentic southern sides paired with an abundant selection of Dark Spirits. Our locally sourced meats and seasonal produce bring the freshest ingredients to your plate. We’ve made our name across the country with our famous family platters for your casual get-togethers and special events - served with a side of Southern Hospitality!

Join us for an intimate dining experience or host your special group event for up to 35 guests. For large parties of 14+, please email events@smoquenbones.com

Must have new owners. Seems more like an uber eats hub. Service very slow. Food quality much lower compared to other location which I would rate 5star.

Food was okay; sides better than the BBQ unfortunately. Our waitress was doing her best, but was clearly given too many tables. They also were sold out of most of their beer selection, and had nothing on tap available.

Heard about S&B through social media. Being a self proclaimed BBQ aficionado I was excited to go. It was better than I expected. I would recommend to those looking for a decent BBQ spot in Toronto. Not a top tier spot but not bad.
