Smokeeaters - San Jose

Placed an order for pick-up 25 minutes in advanced subjects and they only started after I paid. Burger was fine, very expensive and tasted like something from del taco. The wings were very expensive and were served in about 8 ounces of fat. The wings also had hair in it. Restaurant smells like canal. Cooks were inactive when I arrived and I saw that they start washing food naked hand w/o. Gross

Overall disappointing experience. Visiting from the city, always down for a good wing place so tried it. You can say that downtown San Jose area has been hit hard by Covid in the last 2 years, as many places still closed, even blocked? a LOT. You think the ones who do business would take the necessary steps to earn business again. It was a Friday night, but not busy at all. Saw around at a table for about 5 minutes with the staff and nobody recognizes anyone. Go to the counter to order. The prices were SUPER HIGH for everything, but there was an attempt. Got 5 Lemon Pepper wings, paid for one side of Fritten and also got some motz sticks. None of them was everything to write home. Wings sat in a basket that had a bundle of Greeks in the ground. Lemon Pepper are dry rubbish, should so much greed come to me. Fries mediocre best. Motz sticks were bad as the Marinara sauce. You can say they were cheap frozen bars. Never had anyone looked or seen how things were going when I had brought my food to me. Basically, there were ignored for about 30 minutes, while eating mediocre, overpriced food. Duck, because there is definitely an opportunity.

Came in looking for a gourmet burger because of the price. Burger was to greasy to soggy because of the lettuce after taking 1 bite and asking if I could get some sauce it would 25 cents at this point i wanted to taste something different for the burger had no flavor. Took another asked if I could get half of my money back or another burger or something clerk said that?s what it is.

We have been looking for good chicken wings in the downtown area. The wings were very crispy and the sauce was flavorful, however, the prices were VERY expensive. The wings came out to over $2/wing (23.50 for 10). We shared them and a sandwich. The Diesel sandwich was pretty good, sort of dry. The beers were good on tap. They had the hockey game on which was fun! Overall the rating is low for the price. Our bill was about $70 for 10 wings, a sandwich,and 2 beers. I had interest in chicken tenders, but 6 tenders are $24. That's insane. At the price point there are other restaurants for same quality at lower cost.

I 'd have rated this place higher, cept Google 's menu listed them as having both shakes rootbeer floats, they had neither, by the X I got to destination (about 4 blocks away) the ? 's were already cold, and whist the burger was better than what joes has, it may take second place to rookie 's burger around the same price
