   We go to Smoked about once a year when my daughter gets a craving for their nachos. Sunday night was very quiet, the restaurant was considerably less than half full. Smoked has a decent beer on-tap list, and we had a nice Lost Trails IPA. The nachos and Caesar salad were good, my chili was just okay. I was hungering for a burger, and got the house burger, but it was really greasy. My wife said her pulled brisket sandwich was okay, but the cheese was "gloppy". Service was excellent.

   Very good food. Great atmosphere. Decent drinks. They definitely need to hire a host & maybe another server. It took a minute to be greeted & sat. However everything else was perfect!

   The waitress seemed overly busy and took care of the other guests before my table.

   We are glad you enjoyed the food! When we are very busy like we were Friday night, sometimes servers get sat two tables at or around the same time. They may not have known that you were sat first and we do apologize that they went to another table first! Please reach out to us so we can figure out which table you were at and address with your server. Thank you!

   Affordable barbecue restaurant. Very attentive waiter, who did very well. The whole hog platter was good, although they were out of pulled pork at 6:30pm. Food all kind of tasted the same, but good. It was a Sunday so it’s understandable that they were out of some items an hour, and a half before close. The hot honey chicken sandwich was cooked perfectly. The one thing that ruined the flavor of the sandwich for me in particular was the pickled red onions. Would be a much better idea to add a small amount of slaw onto that type of sandwich instead, as the onions totally destroy the sweetness from the honey. Overall a decent dining experience for my family, and I. Would probably like to stop in again another night in the future.

   Hi Hunter, thanks for the kind words and nice review. We ran out of pulled pork Sunday due to a very busy Friday and Saturday. We did not have enough to smoke Saturday night into Sunday to make it through the day. Feedback noted on the sandwich. We hope to serve you again soon.

   Awesome meal and service! Dined for lunch and it didn’t disappoint. Smoked is consistently good. The staff is always friendly, professional, and working hard to serve the customers. The restaurant is clean. We were greeted by a host and put on a short wait as they were very busy. We got our drinks fairly quick… <10 minutes. This has been a go to on our local rotation to eat out. Hershey has a lot of overpriced and pretentious restaurants. Not this one. Highly recommend Smoked if you’re looking for a casual evening out.

   We eat here regularly. Always great food and service. Brisket cheese steak and the ribs are my favorites. My wife loves the salmon. Highly recommend.

   The food was delicious, only complaint is that some of it was luke warm. Our server was amazing, I can’t remember his name but he made it a memorable experience.

   First time at this restaurant and the food was subpar. Ordered the combo with wings, pork ribs and pulled chicken. Also had mac and cheese and cilantro rice on the side. The sides were ok and the wings were hot, but unfortunately, the chicken and ribs were served to us cold. This brought down the whole meal.

   We're glad you enjoyed the food. Thanks for reaching out and recommending us! To clarify your comment, we hold the barbecue in warming cabinets at ~150* because it has been smoked for hours prior to service so it wouldn't be "cold" but it's not going to come out "hot" like it would right out of a 350* oven. If you would have preferred it to be warmer, we would have gladly put it in the oven to heat it up to your preferred temperature. That would have just taken some extra time.
