Smoqe

A fairly quiet evening so allowed the lady (owner?) to spend quality time talking about the menu and about the business, so welcoming and passionate. Toilets- clean, well maintained, UNsmelly! Food - ordered different dishes and allowed us to personalise them, even did some onion fries that weren’t on the menu. Nice vibes, smelled good as well. Drinks - 👍🏻 Will happily return 👍🏻👍🏻

All the food is super delicious. Burger buns are real bread, not some sponge mixed with clay like in other places. Meat is juicy and perfectly grilled and fries are crispy. All condiments were fresh and just in the right quantity so the end product is just perfect. Better food than at dead pigeon (which is to be fair pretty good). Selection might be smaller but it's definitely quality over quantity.

This is a really good place to get a really tasty burger. I had the Korean spicy BBQ chicken burger with Cajun chips. I am a massive fan of Asian flavours so this really hit the spot. The chicken was in a panko crumb and superbly crisp with delicious kimichi and slaw next to it. The chips are delightful, perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I would definitely go back to try some of the other burgers on offer. The restaurant is very small but I wouldn’t say that’s a bad thing, and the staff were very friendly. It is a bit pricey but the portions are big and sometimes I don’t mind paying more for something proper tasty.

Incredible owner, incredible food. My girlfriend and I went in for a quick bite. The 'On Yer Jack' is perfection, girlfriend had an onion bajhi burger. We were both throughly impressed. Very reasonable prices. Even with an in-built service charge, I was so blown away I still felt the need to leave an additional tip Going for the ribs next time

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Smoqe in Rochester, a small and cozy restaurant that serves up delicious barbecue dishes. I was blown away by the quality of the food, and I give it a well-deserved five-star rating. The restaurant serves up mouth-watering hamburgers, ribs, pulled pork, and other barbecue products that are simply divine. The quality of the ingredients they use is top-notch, and it's clear that you're paying for quality here. But trust me, it's worth every penny. The service was also impeccable, with the staff being friendly and accommodating, especially to children. I was very impressed with how the staff went above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable. The atmosphere of the restaurant is hip and modern, which adds to the overall experience. The burgers and barbecue products were standout dishes for me, as they had an authentic and unique taste. The food is definitely a must-try for any barbecue lover. However, I do feel that the side dishes could be improved upon. While they were tasty, they were a bit lacking in colour and flavour, and could benefit from a bit more creativity. All in all, Smoqe in Rochester is a restaurant that I highly recommend. The service is impeccable, and the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. If you're looking for some delicious barbecue dishes, then Smoqe is definitely worth a visit.
