Our family of 10 dined here for dinner on Mother's Day. The service was great. We felt as if we had our own personal waiter, who anticipated our every thought. The food was very tasty and imaginative..... steaks, burgers, lamb shank, and the best maccaroni and ham. The salads are fresh and the dressings are light and tasty. Be sure... More

Our family loves Smitty's. Our kids introduced us to the great food and now we take visitors whenever we want to share a special evening or have a family get-together. The food is awesome. The cornbread is the best many of us ever had. The liver is so good, as is the seafood. Cannot think of anything over half dozen... More

Smittys is owned by the same people as PArkway Grill and the Arroyo chophouse. However as they have spinned off restaurants from the original the quality has gone done substantially. They Cesar salad comes from a ready made dressing instead of it being made from scratch. Service is decent but the boos are way overpriced. Good business athmosphere. More

Very friendly service from Andrea. Food was very good, steaks and fish at our table, well prepared. Nice selection of wines and beers. They do not validate parking for the nearby garage so go ahead and use the valet. More
