TheSmoke - Collingwood

I'll start with the good, the hostess was very friendly. I had the pork belly burnt ends, for the price the amount was lacking and the taste just wasn't there, I tried the sauce on its own and it was bland. I also ate the holy cow burger and this was my biggest gripe, the brisket was so over cooked that it was dryer then the Sahara. Luckily I had a bottle of water to get the food down.

Awesome barbecue! Wonderfully satisfying for that craving and if you like meaty loaded nachos they are delicious! (both brisket and pulled pork)

It's been a very long time since I've had service this friendly (the hostess was all smiles) with food this bad. Mac and cheese that tasted like watered down milk on soggy noodles. Brisket that was tasteless and dry (I know I wouldn't have served it). I mean, it's brisket! It should be rich and melt in your mouth and this was anything but. The pulled pork was juicy but bland. I think this is the first really negative review I've put on Google but the price I paid for that food is something others should avoid!Almost forgot! Pork belly burnt ends that were extremely difficult to chew through when they should have been tender and succulent.i know I won't go back!P.S. I should add that the wings were actually quite good! 1/5 ain't bad?

First time here was lunch family(5). We shared two sampler platters. Pulled pork brisket were amazing. Chicken breast, chicken wings, ribs were also very good. The only thing lacking for us was options for sides. Fries were great but beans coleslaw were just ok.Would definitely eat here again!

I had the brisket dinner for 32 dollars. I enjoyed some soggy oil soaked fries with brisket having the texture of shoe leather and zero taste. I'm not sure what is the current situation is but this place used to have amazing, tender, delicious brisket with a nice smoke ring. If they don't care anymore then I will just spend money elsewhere.
