Unfortunately, I hava big dinner to go to Sat nite, so, I can't make it.
LOL, the exact same thing happened to me and @
golfingboy. We felt the same way--surprisingly good! But it's bar food and burgers (and very crowded and noisy on weekends) and that's something not hard to get elsewhere...
Also very good and nearby is Ki Ramen, but I didn't want to take the chance that it might not appeal to some in our group. Round Corner Cantina is also nearby and does fantastic tacos (and has a great tequila list) but waits there can exceed Smoke's...
