Smokey Bones Virginia Beach

I finally decided to see what all the hype was about at Smokey Bones and it definitely didn’t disappoint. I went during lunchtime and even though it wasn’t too busy I waited about 10 minutes to be seated. My server was on point she checked in often and always refilled my drink before it got low. I ordered the ribs with fries. The flavor was great though the ribs were a little dry for my taste. Other than that everything hit the spot. The restaurant has a fun sporty vibe and overall I had a really good experience.

The staff members were friendly and welcoming, and overall the prices felt very reasonable. I especially enjoyed the "Shipwrecked" cocktail. It was well-made and was a generous portion. The food was tasty and came out in a very timely manner. That said, there were a couple of areas that could be improved. The menus appeared to have been cleaned somewhat poorly, which was a little off-putting. However, all other aspects of the restaurant appeared clean. Additionally, after being seated by the host, it took 32 minutes before a server came to greet our table, even though the restaurant appeared far from capacity. We eventually had to check with the host to find out who our server was so someone could come by. Unfortunately, there was never an acknowledgment or apology for this. Overall, the

The food was good and tasty. Deducted one star for buns on the burger being cold. Wonderful service by Lauryn, our server for the day, her great service compensated for any inconveniences. She was very attentive, kind, funny, and on the top of refills!

I would rate this place a 5 🌟 Service at the front desk was a bit busy and took a while to get in. That was my least favorite. We almost got skipped over, but someone caught it, so that was great. My waiter was sweet. She made my service rate a 4 out of 5 🌟 because of the initial wait/vibe from the check-in side But anyway, the food was good. Although my sides were just warm and not hot like I would like it to be, the food was still great in my option. They had different BBQ Sauce options on the desk that you could try. I recommend the Chipotle BBQ Sauce. That reminds me of A1 Sauce for my A1 lovers. Overall, I would come back. My mom & husband enjoyed themselves, so im happy with that. This place was a 1st for me & I can't wait to come back.

I’ve been here four times in the past month and always sat at the bar with Veda as my bartender. She’s been consistently great! The service is always on point, and the food never disappoints. The burgers are top-tier, and I just tried the nachos for the first time and they were so good. Happy Hour is definitely a highlight with $3 drinks and good food for $6 to $7. Can’t beat it!
