The Smoke House - Cardiff

Stunning! We are huge lovers of smoked meat. This exceeded our expectations. Jaz and her staff were super friendly and attentive! The food was out of this world and the drinks was delicious. They accommodated my gluten intolerance. And super patient waiting for us to finish our drinks with a friendly chat!

Me and partner came here a couple of months ago and as always I dissected the menu before going! When we arrived, me being the expert I was, asked for the platter I wanted from looking at the menu. The platters were worded differently and I accidentally ordered the wrong one!

My partner and I visited this restaurant on a Saturday evening and we were incredibly impressed with everything. We had made a reservation and pre-ordered our smoked meats a few days in advance, as the restaurant is small and tries to minimize waste. When we arrived, we were promptly seated and ordered drinks. The special was a raspberry mojito, which I tried, while my partner ordered a standard mojito. Both cocktails were delicious, and we were lucky to be seated close to the bar where we could watch them being prepared. Our food order was taken about 10 minutes later. We started with some chicken wings, which were cooked perfectly and had a crispy skin. The blue cheese dip was a winner! For our main dishes, my partner had the ribs and I had a burger with blue cheese and bacon. The food came out quickly and was hot and fresh. My burger was delicious, with two large patties and fresh bread. The chips were also great, and the portion size was generous. However, the real highlight was the ribs, which were large and meaty with a beautiful seasoning. The staff were all friendly and attentive throughout our visit, creating a relaxed atmosphere despite being busy. We will definitely be returning soon!

The food was delicious, the drinks were excellent, and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere was fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Absolutely amazing food, fabulous service, great atmosphere. The meat was so so tender, great choice of music aswell, Will definitely be returning
