Smoq Water - Norwood

My friend and I were looking for some bbq, on this night ?. We kept striking out, so we stumbled upon this place. It was very different from our expectations. Upon entry, I asked a patron who happened to be outside at the time. About the parking lot. We made our way in to find our own seats.. Service was very slow and not friendly. The atmosphere was cold, bland, not inviting nor comfortable. Seems like a neighborhood spot. After figuring out how to place our order's on our own. Our drinks were not good, the Sprite was watered-down and my Virgin margarita was not drinkable. The bar person was not friendly nor attentive. He thought it was more important to socialize with someone he knew rather than service a waiting customer. I guess he was upset with me not liking the Virgin margarita he made for me,, which tasted like pickle juice. Yuck!!! The Korean fried chicken wings were good, the fries were hot fresh. My friends pork nachos were cold and his wings had the wrong sauce on them. It was semi corrected by giving him another sauce. Karaoke ? was funny, and fun. We wish them well ?.

My husband, friends and I all stopped in here to check it out. It 's a weird location and the menu was very limited. It 's a bar that serves some food. Probably to help absorb some of the bourbon and rum the make right there. We ordered pork sliders, jalapeño chicken sliders, Mac and cheese balls and pretzels. All were really good for shitty bar food as the owner Mark called it. I REALLY like the Mac and cheese balls. They are made with Gouda. Enough said, Right! I also had a mixed drink called a Blueberry Sour (I think). It was really good. I would definitely go back. I bet it 's really fun at night and on the weekends. I know I 'll be having a Blueberry Whatever and some Gouda Balls.

Love love love this spot!! So diverse, good people, and the karaoke was best I’ve ever heard!! Everyone was so welcoming, I think we talked to everyone. Played pool with a bunch of different people. Good old school jams got to hear these amazing singers sing Aretha, Deborah Cox, Chris Stapleton…. Actually one of the girls got a golden ticket at American Idol!!! can’t wait to go back

I’ve been twice. The bartender remembered me and what I drank from the first time. Bartenders are great!They also have outside seating. Very cool spot and food is good also!

Had a blast singing Kareoke and enjoying delicious drinks and BBQ! Highly recommend stopping by for a fun time! ? ? ?
