Smokey Bones BBQ in Ronkonkama?

Has anyone ever been there? We're meeting friends there for dinner tonight and never heard of it... From the website it looks like a Famous Daves...

Is it any good?

Thanks!

They have one in CT. I didn't really like it. There are much better BBQ near me.

Went there and hated it.
And some kid threw a french fry over the booth and I sat on it and it ruined my favorite pants.

Darden is unhappy with the concept and therefore shutting them all down.

Why did you hate it? Was the food not good, or was it the service? the atmosphere? Or just the fry incident?

Yikes! BAD spelling

I'm not a fan of chains and DH made me try it, so I went thinking I would hate it. We had to wait a long time for a table and then our table was dirty. Our waitress was a total freak, My chicken was undercooked.
Then there was the fry incident.

It's OK, not my favorite place to go.

I am surprised they are all closing - it only opened in Ronkonkoma about a year or 2 ago.

I agree. I have been to Smokey Bones but we like Famous Daves better. Besides the parking over there stinks.

Anyone know what they are going to put there if it is closing?

I have never been to Famous Daves, but I thought Smokey Bones was pretty good.
