Absolutely amazing this place did not disappoint!! I went with my friend Rachel to check this place out and everything from start to finish was delicious . The flavor in the smoked meat made the steak extremely tender. Even the little salad that they put on the plate had the tastiest dressing on it. All of the sides were very well paired with our meal as well. On the pricey side, but it was worth it.

Came here to celebrate my friends birthday. The service was on point, very attentive and professional. The interior is swanky without being stuffy or uncomfortable. Started off with the Brie Fondue (creamy brie, sauteed mushrooms, sherry, spinach, served with grilled crostini). Even though my friend is not a huge fan of mushrooms he said they were not strong in flavor and the dish was one of the best he has had. I agree. Then I had the NY Strip with garlic mashed potato. The meat was succulent and well flavored, the mashed potatoes extremely smooth and flavorful. All in all I really enjoyed my meal at Smoque and will definitely be back next time I am in the area.

We have now tried Smoque Steak for both brunch and dinner and overall, based on the dishes we have tried, I think it is a solid 4 stars. Some dishes are good, while some could use a little bit of improvement. I'll start with my brunch review. I came here with friends and we ordered a few things to try. The best thing for brunch was the lobster benedict. The lobster was perfectly cooked and I loved the pairing with the cheddar scallion biscuit. The second best thing was the shrimp and grits. I loved the flavor and the spice. The third best thing is unfortunately no longer on the menu and that was a berry french toast with a lemon sauce. Sadly, our least favorite was surprisingly the steak and eggs. For being a steak house, the steak was surprisingly underseasoned. Now for dinner. We ordered the bone-in ribeye, shrimp pasta, a side of rosemary gratin potatoes and the chocolate cake for dessert. The shrimp pasta was probably our favorite because of the spicy, buttery flavor. The steak for dinner was seasoned, but we couldn't figure out why it was so tough and chewy despite being perfectly medium well. The potatoes were addicting and I highly recommend this side. The chocolate cake was good. If you don't like coconut, then you may want to avoid it, but we loved the toasted coconut! Overall, we would be back but hoping the steak gets better.

Very different experience from the typical Chicago style steakhouse, but excellent in its own way. Steaks are sous vide, slightly smoked, then seared before plating. Temperatures were perfect (had both medium rare & medium) although don't expect dry aged, high temperature crusting or flavor. Steak frites- excellent with the chimichurri sauce. I'd suggest getting it with the sauce on the side & choosing another "steak enhancement" and use leftovers for frite dipping. New York strip- flavorful & cooked perfectly. A sauce should be selected to bump up the flavor experience, but was fine without the upgrade. Our server, Kat, was the icing on the cake. Servers can make or break a dining experience. Kat totally made it an enjoyable dinner.
