Smokestak

Amazing food and great atmosphere. Restaurant is very busy so I wouldn’t go there as a large group. I think 2-4 is the ideal number of people. What we ordered (2 people - shared everything): - oxcheek - so so good! Flavourful but not overpowering - brisket bun - our favourite. You have to get this!! - beef rib - falls off the bone. Really good if you like softer meat with a lot of sauce - brisket - very well cooked. Smoky. Server was super friendly and helpful! Overall a really good experience. Not touristy or overhyped at all.

Great meal - shared the short rib, brisket and the pork belly - all were different in their own way but fantastic! Also had the beet root starter as a side for my meal....mouth watering (and I am by no means a beetroot lover)!! Sticky pudding was also one of the best I have ever had! great service and fantastic atmosphere - highly recommend A+++

Was recommended by a friend who has been wanting to visit the place since long. I had a booking and was given nice seating as requested while booking. The food was great and the atmosphere of the place was nice as well. The crispy ox cheek is a must have and the sticky toffee pudding is something you should definitely get to have a perfect meal ending. Overall a wonderful experience!

I was planning for a few months to visit that restaurant. I was worth the wait. On Friday, the place was absolutely packed, so I felt smug about booking a table well ahead. The service was really great. Food was good as well. Maybe not the best brisket in London, but close to. Make sure to get the ox cheeks for starter, those are absolutely fantastic.

Great food and awesome to see a fusion working so well. I'll make a call and say it's South American/Korean/North American styles of open fire grilling and Low & Slow Barbecue. Proper wood fire brisket in the middle of London. That's amazing. All great food but the stand out was the pigs tails. Crispy crunchy with enough soft meat to melt it all together with a sweet Asian sauce. I'll be back and we'll have even more Margaritas next time.

After following on instagram, the photos looked amazing. The atmosphere most great. The place was pumping and the smell of BBQ was so inviting. The service provided was good. Our waiter literally sat next to us and joked with us like we were at a family dinner. While the favours were good, our beef rib didn’t fall off bone like other said and was slightly tough. While the brisket burger was juicy and hit the spot. Also just remember to read the “very small fine print”, and account for the 12.5% service charge.

Amazing dinner here yesterday! Brisket was the most tender I've ever had, pork was delicious and fell off the bone. The crispy ox cheek and anchovy mayo dip were fabulous and the feta watermelon salad was refreshing - I just wish it was served a bit colder. Had the chips with the aioli dip, too. Rounded off dinner with the sticky toffee pudding - yum! Minor things to improve imo: - I wish they offered more veggie side or salad options; the peppers were sold out yesterday and that was a shame - Chips were ok but I think potato salad would somehow fit better with the rest and generally the sides could use some more loving and creativity. - the tables were really close to one another

Came here as family and ordered a few things: Ox cheek - delicious! * Pork bun * Beef brisket bun Pulled pork * Belly pork Beef ribs Brisket * Salad Chips The food overall was great, and we all enjoyed it. Just be aware that they put the aioli on the chips so if you’re not a fan maybe ask them to put this on the side. Their brisket is one of the best ones I’ve tasted so far compare to other smoke houses around East London, price is also decent. I would say the thing that really let them down was the service. For any restaurant that charges service charge they should really train their staff about a service. We waited 10/15 mins to get ANY order, that means no one came round to ask about drinks and we were in front of the waitresses and chefs! No one had checked once the food came, one of the waitress just continued to look at us and polish and have a chat with other waitresses next to the bar while seeing we were done. I had to call and ask for the table to be cleaned and the bill as we were all pretty frustrated by then. Food was good, but it may be best to remove the service when not even a decent service was provided and staff are knowingly providing a subpar service.
