Smokey Bones Bar & Fire Grill

Great choices Side choices were good Not 5 star due to no dedicated fryer. Gluten free menu

Food was great. Staff was very knowledgeable about dealing with gluten and other food allergies.

Had wonderful ribs here twice last summer (2013). Wait staff was knowledgeable and accommodating, the bar-b-que sauce was delicious. Reasonably priced. Would certainly go back. Was pleased to discover later that they are a chain, which makes for a nice addition to the road trip dining options.

The food is hit and miss. the pulled pork is GF. But taste quality isn't always great. sometimes it's just bland. thank goodness for the sauce.

The beef brisket was practically inedible because it was so fatty. The service was lackluster and they were shorthanded. Regardless, I will never eat at any location of smokey bones as this was a truly distasteful experience.

Update: they now have gluten sensitive menus that clearly state what is safe and what could be cross contaminated. Food came out perfect!! Past review: So I dropped a star because they brought my food with bread on it. However, the manager came to speak to us and they remade my food completely. Very nice about it and quick to fix their mistake. Did not get sick and would come back.

We found some items on menu that were gluten free. Staff had knowledge of items and worked well with us. Stays open until 1am. Our flight was late into Buffalo Airport. Worked out great for us.

UPDATE: Unfortunately, I’ve had to stop eating here. They used to be really good and safe, but the last several times I had eaten here I have gotten sick. I think they have major problems with cross contamination. So no more. It’s a shame too because it was really tasty. ☹️ Very good BBQ and has separate menu! I am celiac and have eaten here a handful of times with no problem! They are friendly and accommodating - try the RIBS! Yum!

Delicious food with an entire menu dedicated to Gluten Free food, you just need to ask the wait staff for one. Plenty of selections to choose from but no desserts. Will totally go back!!

Please note the fries are in a shared frier with breaded onion rings. Waiting for the rest of my meal to decide on full rating. ****"update ***" The server did his best . Half chicken, jacket potato and cold slaw. Needed the toilet about 30 mins after finishing food so I would say find somewhere else to eat.

No gluten free menu. Chicken was dry. My husband said the beer was flat.

The fries or cooked in a fryer with breaded onion rings. waiting for rest of meal to decide on full meal.

Horrible nasty hostess. Didn’t eat here due to bad attitude

You have to ask for the gluten free menu. But the menu has quite a few options. I had the 1/2 bbq chicken and it was so good! The waitress even said she would tell the kitchen to not put garlic bread on top. Great food and experience!

Great food. Loved the variety of BBQ sauce, meat, and side options.

Good food and they had a Gf menu. Nice staff

Went here with my friend who is celiac... had a decent celiac menu and the staff were knowledgeable! Meal went well.

Delicious food. Polite service. Gluten-free menu.

Although they have a gluten free menu and we ordered from it they still included regular garlic bread on our plates.

Had the St. Louis ribs, baked potato, & broccoli with no issues.

Awful service, no GF menu, only a simple list of the gluten free foods but nothing special. Had pulled pork and even that was awful.

Went to the restaurant after a 12 hour workday to order takeout to bring back to the hotel. Ordered from the gluten free menu, told them it was a wheat allergy. Found a piece of garlic bread hidden UNDER my pulled pork, after I had already eaten half of it. Called them back, all I got was a verbal apology.

The staff knew what I could have and the Gf menu was helpful. Had the stacked baked potato and salad combo. Yummy

8-24-2018 Extremely Celiac friendly at this location. Our host has had Celiac's for five years. She walked me through their GF menu and helped with the best orders. I am also uploading a pic of their GF menu.

Visited here twice during holiday. After first visit was going to give 5 stars. It was lovely then waiter was knowledgeable and no issues. However the 2nd visit was terrible. Had to send dinner back twice we order two gf babyback ribs just like last time. They firstly came with garlic bread on them. Second time the mash came with gravy that states on menu that we cannot have gravy. Guess all the staff are not up to date on allergy awareness.

We were a table of 25, the waitress tried her hardest...but they put the garlic bread on my plate anyway. She took it back and assured me that all new items were chosen, but I still got very sick tonight. 😔

The ribs were so good! I have been 4 times. Had a great experience the first 3, but the 4th time I had a waitress who was terrible and I may have gotten sick. I should have gotten the manager when I first questioned her abilities.

Good food, friendly staff. Their gluten free menu is limited but good quality food. They know which BBQ sauce are and are not gluten free. The cinnamon apples are to die for. Cole slaw is good and homemade.

They have a gluten free menu with decent understanding and pleasant servers. A few of their GF items are also dairy free. Check online for their full allergen listing. It was our only option in the area since the others were closed. Glad they were there for our travels.

My daughter has celiac. They were awful! Couldn’t get her din we salad correct after 3 tried. At that point we canceled her order and she just got to sit and watch our table of 7 eat. Very frustrating!

I informed the staff I was gluten free prior to ordering. I got pulled pork with potatoes. Within thirty minutes I started to feel sick, the waiter informed me that they accidentally put garlic bread on my pork at first but then removed it! Not safe at all. I notified the manager and he was very apologetic but I just can’t trust them again..

So far they have taken care of me. My go to meals are pulled pork or ribs with a baked potato. I always advice that I have a gluten allergy and to ask the chef to take extra care to change his gloves while preparing my food and so far I’ve eaten here probably 5+ times without an issue. Your mileage may vary at other locations. I have celiac disease and have been okay so far.

Always get sick here. Not worth the risk.

They had a separate GF menu with plenty of options. I'm always one to be super skeptical of GF menus with just some options from the menu, but I got the pulled pork and it was delicious! Also didn't get sick at all. I will be returning in the future.

Ask for the gluten-free menu upon arrival. Lots of delicious options. We thoroughly enjoyed our St. Louis style ribs and smoked brisket.

Great food and service. ................

so went on a Saturday, hardly anyone in the restaurant but I must have got some cross contamination as yesterday and today I feel awful. only place I ate that was not my kitchen from last Monday. so even though they have GF menu be careful.

One of the reasons we came here was because of their gluten-free menu. I have celiac disease which allows strictly no gluten in my diet. There were quite a few options for me to order from. However, when my food came there was a piece of garlic bread on my plate touching the ribs that I had ordered. I had to cut that piece off of the rack. The food was good but I question their knowledge of gluten allergies and the lack of caution while preparing my food.

Pulled Pork was amazing. Our server was very good but you must read and ask many questions. There wasn't as much to order as I was hoping, no buns for example but my meal was so tasty. Will visit again ... may bring my own roll.

Food quality has gone way down hill. Do my recommend.

my meal made me sick from gluten...

our waiter Jesse was fabulous! Great GF menu with lots of options!

Food ok. We went for the GF menu which was amazing! Lots and lots of neat options to choose from.

They got rid of their amazing dessert option, now everything is fried desserts. Got ribs they were super fatty and lots of small cartilage bones, not good at all. They use to have better food and options.

Had pulled pork, mashed potatoes, broccoli and cinnamon apples. Fantastic. Server took it very seriously even though we were there on a Saturday night. They had a gf menu so I knew easily what I could have.

They have a gluten free menu. Most of their meats are gluten free, and sides too. I had the pulled pork, loaded mashed potatoes and broccoli!

The baked beans have wheat flour. But they have a comprehensive allergens menu online. Google it to be safe.

They always seem to forget to NOT put croutons on my salad, but they've always been nice when I return it. Great BBQ and drinks

I really enjoyed my lunch. It tasted so "real" and I didn't get sick at all and I am very sensitive. I got the grilled chicken which is sliced thin and good quality. All the BBQ sauces on the table are GF and delicious! I had mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli too. Very pleased and will be back!!!

Delicious ribs. I would recommend this place if you are in the mood for ribs. First time there and I did not get sick. Quick and friendly service by kristín!

They had a menu! And it had lots of options! We were very pleased and the waiter was very helpful!!

Reckless cooks. The gravy is not gluten free and they placed a layer of it under the loaded mashed potatoes. Meal was deducted from the bill but not even the manager came by to apologize.

Delicious ribs, a lot of sauces to choose from. Several food options. Did not get sick.

I know this is supposed to accommodate people with a gluten intolerance but when my bar b que chicken came out, it was smothered in sauce. About an hour later, I broke out in hives and have an upset stomach. I will not be going back. Didn't have any problems at Sonny's!

Great BBQ. Separate GF menu. Nice choices. Waitress was very helpful.
