"Let’s be honest: the patio is most of the reason why we go to Smoky Rose. This spot across from the Arboretum serves up barbecue dishes, comfort food, and a family-friendly vibe. There are twinkle lights out over the patio, which holds a bar and covered and less covered seating to serve all kinds of weather. Sample some fried chicken and waffles for brunch or a decadent brisket cheddar melt for lunch with a craft cocktail by the fire pit. Valet in the tight lot here is a must." - Rachel Pinn, Courtney E.
