"Black Smoke packs a distinctly American punch. The dimly lit, unpolished, rough and rugged interior is steeped in the smoky aroma of BBQ. The pitmasters have perfected the art of grilled meat in true Texan fashion. Traditional techniques, Latino influences and local produce for meals rich in big-boned, heart-warming flavours. Examples include lamb tacos jazzed up with a spicy za’atar, jalapeno pepper and fresh lemon. Or how about a cut of premium beef from the De Laet & Van Haver butcher’s shop? The drinks menu is practically as long as the food menu, while the ‘Bonanza Experience’ is billed as the ultimate sharing experience! So, let’s crank up the heat!" - Michelin Inspector

Aimed at BBQ meat lovers and u will not be disappointed. Very individual location with an extra bar on the roof. We had the pulled meat platter for two which filled us to the brim. Nice variety of beer and spirits. Dessert was also delish. It's a bit noise because many people are served but the food quality was top notch.

We ordered the “best of beef” “all in”: loved the ribs, the sliders and the brisket but the entrecote was so tough we only tried one slice each and took the rest home for our dog.. Coleslaw was very bland too unfortunately. The desserts were great but the cookie was very thin and the mousse pastry was very hard to crack. Overall though it was too pricey

We had the absolute pleasure of dining at Black Smoke in Antwerp, and what an experience it was! we eat on the rooftop! From the moment you walk in, you're immersed in a stunning setting with a warm, stylish atmosphere. The smoky aroma that fills the space is incredible — it instantly whets your appetite and sets the tone for what’s to come. We chose the discovery menu, and it was nothing short of exceptional. Every dish was perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and beautifully presented. The food is divine, a true celebration of smoked meats and bold, balanced tastes. The cocktails are equally impressive — creative, flavorful, and crafted with care. The table service was top-notch: attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly. To top it all off, the prices are very reasonable considering the outstanding quality of the food and the overall experience. In short: an absolute must-visit in Antwerp for food lovers. We were blown away from start to finish!

If not the best BBQ restaurant we've been to in Antwerp. The meat was grilled to perfection 👌. The extras and sauces were perfect with the meat. The waitress was well informed concerning the choices and cuts of meat and very friendly

Pretty good ribs for Europe. Sides were nice. The rooftop was cool and so is the rest of the restaurant. The toilet sink reminds me of the prefect bathroom from goblet of fire. Fun times

Adding more to my comment since the restaurant replied to me; first of all I recommend you to check your own menu because you aren’t aware of the prices. You have a tasting menu for 79.99 euros per person. You have almost 0 signature cocktails, and the staff couldn’t even manage making a jack and coke. Thanks! Atmosphere and interior design is great, service is super slow. We ordered the combo that costs 80 euros per person, did it worth it? No. I’d recommend you to directly order meat, I can’t say they’re very good with appetizers. Pastrami was extremely good! Their cocktail selection is very bad, not diverse at all. They can be more creative with all the sauces they have.

If you know how brisket should be, then you might want to try the other dishes. It is sadly really hard sourcing the correct cut off meat for brisket here in Europe. It was more of a roast with not enough fat inside the meat, therefore it was a very lean piece of meat, the taste was really good though with lots of good pepper. I had the slaw and the smoked potatoes for sides and they were really good. Staff super friendly and beer selection okay 👍 Would definitely visit again another time.
