OMC Smokehouse

Food was excellent! Great taste, flavors we’ve never had before, nice portion sizes. One of the owners, Louie, stopped by our table and we enjoyed hearing a little about his story. He was humble and kind. We received wonderful service and felt well cared for. We would definitely recommend OMC Smokehouse to friends and family and will definitely be back when we are in the area.

Just had the BEST Q outside of Texas! Beginning with the complimentary fried rinds and an explanation of the various sauces, every item was prepared with perfection! Our server, Sarah was exemplary! Husband had brisket and ribs. Tender and flavorful. I had the burrito bowl and I highly recommend it! Sides were tasty blends of complimentary seasoning as well.

This is the place I keep coming back to whenever I visit Duluth. The BEST brisket in Minnesota, it’s so good and tender that it melts in your mouth. The St. Louis style ribs are also the best here. If it’s your first time here, I’d recommend the Smoked OMC Plate, you’d get a bit of each of their best dishes (ribs, brisket, and smoked chicken). Personally, I prefer the ribs and the brisket, so we just get a full order of those. The sides are delicious. The mac and cheese is a must. The candied sweet potato bake was great as well, but it was too sweet to have along with the other dishes - I had it as more of a desert dish. The potato salad was also really good and I recommend, and nothing can go wrong with the corn. Highly recommend OMC Smokehouse!

Best smoked meats we have ever had! Party of 2 , ordered (Weekday late lunch/dinner) : omc smoked plate, pork n' grits, added extra briskets, and creme brulee. Smoked brisket just melts in ur mouth and even the chicken was great (took leftovers to our camping site and grilled them later and it was more amazing!) Grits were so good that we ordered one to go a couple of days later. Creme brulee was divine. It had the perfect sugar crunchy layer on top of the smooth creme and it was perfect w the candied bacon. Would definitely try this again! The four sauces they had were also so yummy w the pork rinds! Everything was super tasty =)

My sister and I went to lunch at OMC smokehouse on Friday, September 19, 2025. We were in the area and wanted to get a nice lunch. I read the reviews online and thought this would be a great place. The ambience of the place was great. Our host that seated us was very nice. Our server Sarah was absolutely wonderful. But the food was not so great. I ordered the appetizers - pork belly lettuce wraps and the beef fat fries. My sister ordered the burrito bowl and the barbecue wings appetizer. While the pork belly had a great flavor, it was the consistency of leather. Very dry and chewy. I did not finish eating the appetizer. I did mention this to our server Sarah. The beef, fat fries, while having wonderful flavor, were very limp and soggy. The burrito bowl, while having great flavor, the rice was nothing but mush. Again, the barbecue wings had great flavor, but were a little dry. We only ordered water for our beverages. We did bring home the extra wings and the extra beef fat fries (hoping we could crisp up the fries in an air fryer, but that didn’t work out so well). I guess I expected a bit more for a $80 lunch (not including tip).

NOTE: This review is good but not perfect, and it was really hard to rate this. First of all, it was our first time coming here and it was our 25th wedding anniversary dinner. The atmosphere was aligned on what their business stands for in a different way. The service was top notch, and the food was good, but there was a major flaw. The hushpuppies. Being raised in the south, they were thumbs down. No corn and the texture was too smooth. They cooked them properly, but they missed the marked. In other words, I do not recommend the hushpuppies. The yams were also blended smoothly, but this actually worked and I do recommend. The fries were great, but even thoughthe were cooked in the beef drippings from the brisket, they did not stand out, but they were still very good, but not the extra two dollars added for as a side. I maybe have them again. The ribs were great! Flavor was spot on! They were moist, but they were bit over cooked. The bone came loose from the meat, but barely. Good fore tenderness, but not for competition style which I like better. All their sauces are worth taking home or buy a bottle of each and that is what shines there. Like I said, this not an easy review and the food was great, so Ibwill give it the 5 star rating. This is a place where you can enjoy at an occasion. The price is a bit on the high end, so there is that.

Amazing food, staff were great, very cool interior and atmosphere. The bar-b-cuban was amazing and suggest trying it. The Louisiana catfish and chips were delicious! All the sauces are great and had to buy some to take home! Love to try old fashions every restaurant I try and theirs is delicious and one the best I've had in a while!

BEST experience, all the way around! Brisket was flavorful and DELICIOUS; dipping sauce options were varied, house-made, and tasty; my dietary-delicate husband was able to get a phenomenal burger on a gluten-free bun; sides were unique and mouthwatering (I tried the hush puppies, pecan-topped sweet potatoes, and my husband's fries); and the drinks were excellent - SO MANY bourbon options! We requested to sit on the patio. It was peaceful and the atmosphere was stellar. I cannot recommend this place enough. If I am ever in Duluth again, I'm going back to try the pulled pork. My only complaint is that it said on the menu that gluten-free buns would not be an additional charge, but they did charge us a few dollars extra for it. I think because we told them not to worry about cross-contamination? Lucky for them, everything else was 6/5 stars.

OMC has never disappointed me. Every time I'm in town I try to get a meal here. I order the same thing each visit, not because I don't like the other items, but because I love the pulled pork so much I just have to get it again and again. What really sets OMC apart from other BBQ places is their dry rub, their garlic aioli and the pork rinds. I always have to ask for extra. While it can be difficult to get a table depending on the day/time of visit, it's worth the wait. On my latest visit we sat outside and I was able to have my dog with me. Even writing this review it's making me want the beef fat fries. If they open a location in the Twin Cities I'll be their first customer.

We came late on a Saturday night. They told us it would be almost 2 hours as there were 24 ahead of us, but the wait was about 40 minutes. A lot of people just no-showed. We tried several items in our group. Smoked OMC Plate: St. Louis-style ribs (2), sliced brisket (4 oz.), and 1/4 smoked chicken - very good Mac and Cheese - okay Roasted Bacon and Blue Cheese Potato Salad - didn't like Fire-Roasted Poblano Creamed Corn - excellent Our server was okay but too busy. Drinks were never refilled. My son loves this place. I just didn't feel like it was special.

First time here and glad we stopped! The restaurant has a clean, welcoming atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating options. Service was prompt and friendly -- our server was knowledgeable about both the food and drink menus. We came on a Thursday evening with a group of five, and our meals came out quicker than expected. My wife ordered the Chicken Sammy -- great flavor and perfectly crispy on the outside while still juicy inside (though a bit thick for smaller mouths!). The fries were crisp and paired nicely with the sauces provided. I thought the food overall was solid. The sides were both excellent -- especially the creamy corn, which had a unique and delicious twist. The chicken was flavorful and moist, and the brisket had a nice bark with tender meat. The ribs were decent, though the end of the rack was a little on the dry side. Overall, a great spot with good food, quick service, and a comfortable setting. We'll definitely be back to try a few more menu items next time.

This is a pretty awesome place. Situated in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Duluth, which is funky and eclectic. The brisket was good, the pulled pork was good, the sauces were good, but the sides were great! Fun atmosphere and very friendly staff!

I was only in town for 2 nights and in my second night I decided to not eat at the hotel. This place was 5 mins away so I gave it a shot. What a gem. It wasn't busy so the hostess not only walked me to the bar but also made my drink. I totally enjoyed the pork rinds so I could try all the bbq sauce they offer. I was handed off to a young sweet bartender who was very enthusiastic about everything I wanted to order. I settled on the Pit Master sandwich. It was amazing and satisfied my bbq craving. Because I was on a work trip I decided to get dessert. The brownie was warm and the whipped cream with infuse with bourbon. I believe the sauce was a vanilla butterscotch with pecans. What made is really good was it was a corner piece. I like the vibe of this place.

OMG for OMC! We live in the twin cities so this is only our second time here but wish we could come more often! Service is friendly and attentive. Great outdoor waiting area. We came during Happy Hour on a Monday and ordered the wings and sliders from the HH menu. Chicken wings were so crispy and flavorful. Both came with a side of fries. For our meal we ordered the brisket and ribs that came with two sides (your choice). Brisket was smoky, tender, and flavorful. Ribs had a great dry rub and fell off the bone. Their house made sauces are so good!

Are you looking for BBQ on the North Shore!? This is BY FAR the best BBQ in Minnesota! So when you are in Duluth, make sure to stop! There is a little bit of parking but I find it's hard to find parking and normally just do a "to go" order. This can be done online! The service was fairly quick on the Saturday I went. Everything I ordered was on my bag and they did include silverware. This place does have a cool patio with fire pits. The sweet smokey smell throughout the place will have your mouth watering! The food: THE MUST GET ITEMS: The brisket! Holy moly! It is soooooooo good!!! Best I have ever had! Also the sweet potato's with the candied pecans oh my goodness yum! The ribs here are also BEYOND YUMMY!! They changed the size of their sauces. You can get plenty of sauce but they come in small containers... not a fan. I wish they were bigger again. The hush puppies were not worth it. And the hot honey had a funny taste to it. The corn bread is a bit dry. Those I would skip. The pulled pork is pretty solid. The chicken is also delicious! My boyfriend had the Mac and cheese and it was creamy and had a great cheesy flavor! There is a park with a playground 5 minutes from here if you want to do a pick up!

Solid bbq joint in Duluth! Spacious and well cleaned restaurant with authentic and rustic smokehouse feel. Ordered and shared the OMC Smokehouse plate ($37) substituting the ribs with pulled pork. I enjoyed all the meats but believe the brisket was the best with the honey bbq sauce! All of the meat was moist and tender. I think the portions of pork and beef were pretty slim for the value but that's America these days I suppose. For sides, we tried the OMC beans and the Mac n cheese. The beans had some spice and great flavor. The Mac n cheese was bland and unremarkable but balanced the beans' heat. Service was outstanding! Server Mariah (according to receipt) set this place apart! She was fun, friendly, personable, and always on top of it!

This place is just amazing! Our server was the best -- gave us the whole rundown on their varying sauces to sample with their delicious pork rinds! The Alabama White is the absolute and addictingly best (just the right amount of horseradish)! I ordered their country fried ribs which I've never had anything like before or since -- so good! More places should give that a whirl! And their Hush puppies with the Nashville hot honey we're just as good as it sounds also. They make a good use out of what isn't a huge location and there's a bit for the tourist/shopper to indulge in at their little gift shop as well.

Fantastic ‼ Sidney was our server We were passing through on our roadtrip through the states. We got very lucky and were seated at the front table for 2. Cozy spot. I picked this restaurant because my husband loves BBQ. Finger licking good, he said. Oink-Moo-Cluck would make great ball caps too. Thanks for an awesome meal and experience.

My sister and I went to lunch at OMC smokehouse on Friday, September 19, 2025. We were in the area and wanted to get a nice lunch. I read the reviews online and thought this would be a great place. The ambience of the place was great. Our host that seated us was very nice. Our server Sarah was absolutely wonderful. But the food was not so great.

WOW! I know why this BBQ spot has won awards and is a must stop when in Duluth. From the cool alley style patio seating, laid back interior and the wonderful staff- I cannot wait come back. It was our first time, and our server took the time to explain the sauces they have and that using the pork rinds was a great "app" and way to sample the sauces while we wait for our meals. We ordered the Smoked OMC plate with ribs, brisket, smoked chicken and added on the sides of Poblano creamed corn and collard greens. Everything was so tasty and well-seasoned. I especially loved the collard greens and ribs. All the meats were juicy, well-seasoned without being too salty while the sides added another layer of comfort to the meal! Check them out!

What a fun experience!! Our server was also the bartender but she didn't skip a beat - she really took care of us and made sure to fully explain the menu, the different sauce options, and pulled out a few of her personal faves which we really appreciated! Parking was a bit of a pain but my husband and I came during the lunch time and were able to get seated right away. Love the idea of giving pork rinds to test out the unique BBQ sauces on! They were also a really great snack while we waited but there really wasn't much to wait for. I ordered the ribs and wings plate which came with three full wings (drum + wing) and then a couple ribs. The ribs were a bit overdone in my opinion but the wings, which I got in buffalo sauce, were really tasty! They were smoked so slightly different from what you may be used to as there is no breading but you can taste the Smokey flavor which is a nice add to the zestiness of the buffalo. My husband got a burger and really loved it, super juicy, awesome fries that are cooked in beef fat so it was extra yummy. Highly recommend!

We were seated quickly and given plenty of time to peruse the menu while our server got our beverages. She was friendly and answered my questions about some of the menu items. My husband and I shared the haystack brisket sandwich and the bbq chicken plate, with bbq on the side, the beef fries (not as crispy as we like, but good flavor), unique potato salad (yummy), and a house salad (huge, fresh, and colorful). Plenty of food and they were able to accommodate my dietary requests. The restaurant had fun and colorful paintings on the walls; sauces, rubs, and a cookbook for sale; a take out section; and a couple of rooms of tables for customers.

Efficient friendly service. The brisket was decent. I had the haystack brisket sandwich, sauce on the side. I selected the hush puppies as my side, fantastic with a honey dip. Nice decor. Outdoor seating as well. Some street parking, otherwise there's a gravel pay to park lot in the back. I like that most of their beer are local beers. Full bar with a good cocktail list as well. They have wine as well. The patio has a fire pit.

This is carnivore's heaven right here! All the smoked meat you imagined eating is right in front of you! Pork rind came with 4 different sauces which were all lovely on its own. They have local beer and cider available. Our server was extremely helpful in figuring out which one to order. Hubby settled on the haystack burger which smoked brisket -- loved all the smoked flavors in there. The hush puppies complemented the heavy meat well. I had the corn muffins and they were heavenly soft and sweet. Love this local BBQ joint. Highly recommend it for meat lovers, you won't regret it!

We got here right when they opened on Sunday but by the time we left there was already a line forming and I see why! I ordered turkey with fries and Mac and cheese and a biscuit to share (if there's a biscuit somewhere, I'm getting it!) The turkey was great and there wasn't a fry left. I was nervous for the Mac and cheese but it was delicious. An unusual noodle for a BBQ place but the cheese was fantastic. I also really enjoyed the biscuit. I could see it being hard to find parking later in the day but it would be worth it! It's also wonderful to see how clearly they care so much for their staff!

YES. This place is on their game every time I come to town. Really darn good food and innovative dishes, too. Not just the same smoked meats every time. This is one of those places that really gets the food-service-people combo and is doing a great job of earning your business. Would recommend.

I really enjoyed the space, people, and food. We had great service. Our waitress helped choosing some great food. I had their Buffalo chicken biscuit as well as their jalapeño appetizer. The biscuit was so great, wish I could have finished it all. None of the food looked bad on the table!!!

Visiting for work and went to OMC Smokehouse for dinner. They start you with pork rinds and then I went with the wings to kick things off. Then on to pulled pork and brisket, beans, beef fat fries, and hush puppies. The wings were the best wings I've had in my life and I am not exaggerating! The beans had a nice spice to them. They provide a sauce caddy with 4 different sauces. The horseradish based one was phenomenal!! They have plenty of seating with typical BBQ joint ambiance and service was on point! Would definitely come back!

We stopped in at OEM Smokehouse in Duluth and had high hopes based on the vibe and the packed house--and to be fair, the inside of the building was fantastic. Rustic, lively, and welcoming. We grabbed seats at the bar since it was so busy, and our bartender/waiter was awesome--super friendly and attentive the whole time. I ordered the ribs and chicken wings, both with dry rub, and sides of mac & cheese and corn muffins. The ribs were definitely the highlight--solid 8/10. Tender with a nice rub. The wings were okay but didn't really stand out, more of a 7/10. Mac and cheese and the corn muffins were both lacking in flavor--more like a 6/10 and 5/10 respectively. My wife got the Henny Penny sandwich (pulled chicken with bacon and cheese), and unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations. The chicken had almost no flavor on its own, and it really needed barbecue sauce just to wake it up. Overall, the experience was a mix. Great service and a cool atmosphere, but the food just didn't deliver the punch we were hoping for.

My companion and I stopped in Minneapolis on our way out of town to get coffee and we so fortunately got to chatting with someone who is from Duluth and recommended this restaurant (as we were on our way there for the day). I would probably not have chosen this place on my own, but I'm so glad we went there! My salad was huge and delicious, and the brisket just melted in my mouth, it was perfect! (Though the horseradish dressing was a bit spicy, I should have requested it on the side so I could control how much I got lol) My companion got grits and coleslaw as sides to her brisket, both were spectacular. Our waitress Natalie was lovely and kind. I would highly recommend this place for a hearty lunch or dinner in Duluth.

Ahhhhhmazing! There were four of us at our table. We did an appetizer, one mixed drink, four entrées and dessert. Everything had amazing flavor. Nothing was terribly spicy, just a hint of heat for the jalapeño appetizer. The four house sauces were delicious. We didn't have to wait, and our server was courteous and prompt. Overall, a great dining experience! it might take us a year or two to come back up to Duluth, Minnesota, but we will be back.

We always try to stop here when in Duluth! The BBQ is outstanding!! The service experience has been great we love coming here and will be back!

I had looked forward to trying OMC, but, when I finally did, I was disappointed in the food and service. Our waitress mostly ignored us in favor of the next table, a server brought the wrong appetizer, and the food was bland and certainly not living up to the hype of the restaurant. The only redeeming quality of the restaurant was the smore fire pits that were offered up while we had to wait to get a table. Not a good value for the money.

This restaurant is at Duluth, Minnesota. We stopped by this restaurant on the way back yo Minneapolis. It was quite a busy restaurant when we arrived. It has 2 sitting areas. It serves Louisiana bbq and Nashville hot chicken sandwich. The restaurant is very cozy with a full bar service. We ordered a pork rib, brisket, salad, Korean pork belly sandwich, salad, and chicaron. We ordered to go for eating on the road. The food was ready pretty quickly. I slso order sweet tea ehich is good and not sweet. All the food is yummy. The pork rib is tender, the pork belly is well seasoned, and the brisket is soft. I can say they are not cheap but worth.

The food was amazing some of the best ribs perfectly fatty and meaty love the horseradish bbq sauce and the hot honey is great with the hush puppies and cornbread the mac and cheese isn't to good just overly liquidy sauce and some non melted pre shredded cheese on top but is better if you add some bbq sauce to it great drinks though

We stopped in after coming out of a week trip to the BWCA. It is our tradition because it is so amazing! The chicken wings are a must. The side salads are a perfect mix of greens and veggies. I had the bama brisket salad. It was delicious. However, I did have to pull the pickles off. They were just too much and did not compliment the salad it my opinion. Too strong and over powering. We sat in the section with the kitchen and wait staff. It is not the best place to sit in my opinion. Too much traffic. Our waitress however was very attentive and friendly. I highly recommend this place and have never been disappointed with our choices. My salad just needed a little tweak.

First time here. The ribs were tender and falls off the bone whereas the chicken wings were too crispy and lack of flavor. The BBQ sauces were tasty and added some flavors to the ribs and chicken. I didn't care for the Alabama horseradish sauce or the mustard sauce. It was quiet in the dining that we were in and we came between 3 and 4 so it was slow before the dinner rush. Service was prompt and friendly. The restaurant was quaint with lots of pigs, cows and chicken decor to call out the name of the restaurant.

We stopped for dinner and were told an hour wait, but only had to wait about 20 minutes as we agreed to sit at the bar. Bartender was very personable and my house old fashioned was excellent. Our food was awesome; great smoked flavor and portion size. Very busy and nice decor; lots of crazy "stuff" to look at.

The food never really disappoints here. The pork rinds are always awesome and free . The ribs and brisket were solid but not really mind blowing, but they fulfilled my craving. The candied sweet potato bake wasn't my favorite, something about them was just off to me. The service was very good and checked up on us regularly and even gave us more pork rinds. And the whole restaurant was spacious and made me feel comfortable inside as if I could hang out there for hours.

Very very good! We had the grits which different and maybe not as good as you'd find in the south but pleasantly surprised. The potatoe salad excellent!

OMG we love OMC. Went here with some friends and let me just say, delectable flavor, impeccable service, and the ambiance was fantastic. Thank you to all the crew shout out to our wonderful server MASON

Just phenomenal barbecue. Came to OMC Smokehouse for lunch and disappointed. Ordered Classic Brisket with 2 Bones of St. Louis Style Ribs plus Mac and cheese and whipped sweet potato mash for $33. All of the food was flavorful and a majority of the brisket was tender and juicy which is hard for some places to do. This is a great barbecue option when in Minnesota not just Duluth. I will be back!

I love good brisket and based on recommendations from friends, I had high hopes. Hubby had the pulled pork. Our servers were great. Quick to check in with us a few times while we ate. I loved the setting and the fun animal pics on the wall. We weren't however impressed with the food. The taste was okay but not anything amazing. The worst part was that all of our food was lukewarm. I love hot food to be hot and cold food to be cold, so it was off putting. We weren't there at a busy time (lots of empty tables), so I'm not sure why the food wasn't hot. I'm giving 4 stars because I can see the potential and I might just try them again.

Way way overhyped. Our party of 4 each tried different entrees and appetizers and none of the were good enough for us to go back . We know good bbq- having lived in Texas for years and this wasn't even close. The servers knew we were disappointed with our food so they ignored our table. Save yourself the trip, unless you like oddly seasoned dried up salty scraps of food.

Food 5/5 - When visiting Duluth this is a must stop! The Jalapeño Brisket Bombs are just the right amount of sweet and spicy, the brisket is top notch for Minnesota, and the Elote Chicken Salad was packed full of flavor. Service / Ambiance 5/5 - We got our food within a timely manner. The wait staff was kind and helpful. The smokehouse has a rustic feel and a great layout.

Really good BBQ restaurant -- starts out with fresh pork rinds brought to the table. I highly recommend trying the sauces on these. Tasty! I got the salad with the brisket on it (don't remember the exact name) but it was very good. And also a side of the elote corn and cornbread. A great combination. Our server was very good and helpful at recommending things. And we loved the outside eating area as the weather was incredible tonight.

Holy smokes this is some amazing smoked bbq! We were recommended to eat here by a few people, and we finally decided to dine in on our anniversary trip. I wish we would have went sooner. It definitely became a favorite spot now for when we come back to the north shore. I love how they give you the in house pork rinds to sample all of their sauces. I was obsessed with the white Alabama sauce, and I don't even like horseradish, but this had no trace of it in my opinion which made it sooo tangy and good! We ordered the hush puppies with cry baby honey aioli which were some of the best hush puppies we've had. I've had bbq in the south and this is just as good, trust me! For my entree I had the fried chicken sandwich with the Alabama sauce, and Mac n cheese. My hubby got the country fried ribs, YUM! The sides were greens and jalapeño cheesy grits, you definitely can't go wrong with any of the sides. I wanted dessert, but had to hold back a little, ha! Our server Nick was top notch and the brew list here. Highly recommend this place you are in the Duluth area.

Awesome BBQ place! Our family was in town for a lake vacation and and stopped on a Thurs night around 6PM and we were able to get a table outside (which was a covered patio). There is no table service outside, so you just need to go inside and order at the counter and they will bring it out. They had a good selection of local brews and some interesting cocktails as well. The six of us ordered pulled pork platter, brisket, ribs, tacos and loaded mac & cheese. Everyone loved their food (except the loaded mac & cheese...maybe just different than her expectations) - and the ribs were outstanding! Overall excellent experience!

Sarah took great care of us. She was attentive and patient. We loved all the food we got - fantastic Mac n cheese and cool sampling experience when you sat down. Food came out quick! We got the loaded Mac & cheese, ribs, chicken tacos, brisket and cream cheese stuffed jalapeños, and a chicken tender sandwich. Would recommend to anyone in Duluth or visiting! Great patio and flowers. Super cute decor throughout as well. Cocktails, nice wine selection & good beers

So yummy!! Service was great and the atmosphere was cool. Try the Tipsy Pig cocktail, you won't regret it!

Sweet potato side is really good. The blue cheese potato salad was not a strog blue cheese flavor if your worried about that. Everything seemed dry since they expected the sauce put on it all. The honey sweet bbq has a tich of the mustard/vinegar flavor and is runny. The brisket and cheddar is what I ordered and had the jam on the side as normally that stuff isn't my jam. The brisket had a bit of a spice to it so I tried the jam on it and it was like a sweet ketchup that cooled down the brisket at least on my palate. It made it very good I gave my side to my partner he had the cornbread as the fries are fried with the catfish, which has gluten. I do appreciate the GF bun was not extra that was nice. When you arrive they give you pork rinds which I don't eat pork but still nice. My in law had the ribs and they were not fall off the bone but it didn't take much to get off. The drinks were good and the service was good.

We were visiting Duluth and had dinner here - OMC won't disappoint! I wish it was close to where I live! It's BBQ at a chef level! What a great place. We started with nachos. Pulled pork, jalapeños and flavor heaven! They didn't last long. I had Time Honored Classic chicken sandwich. Smoked pulled chicken - delicious! Also had Elote and cheesy jalapeño grits. Wow! Superb! This place is wonderful! As Arnold said, 'I'll be back!'

Get. Here. If you're looking for something with an amazing vibe, service staff and food OMC is where you find it! Ambiance is very rustic and considered a trendy smokehouse. I highly recommend the sweet potato bake and cornbread sides, The sauces are all unique, and there is something for everyone. They are sampled when you arrive with the complimentary chiccarones. My personal favorite was the Alabama White, but definitely try them all! This is a great stop especially outside of Canal Park. And if heading back to the cities it's on your way out with quick access to Highway 35. Order of photos: Loaded Mac Brisket Sandwich Burrito Bowl with Smoked Chicken It's definitely a good place for a food coma!

Visited 7/19/24. I had previously heard wonderful things about OMC but never had gotten in until now. Came around 5:30 for dinner (the earlier the better because it does start to get busier later on). Service was really solid with great recommendations throughout. I got the lemonade to drink which was equally sweet as it was delicious. My mom and I ended up splitting the platter (containing brisket, ribs, and 1/4 chicken) with sides of corn and beans and then we added on a side of biscuits. If you're trying to decide between meats, they were all solid but I would definitely recommend the brisket. It was melt-in-your mouth good. The elote style corn was really solid and the beans were flavorful with a bit more of a chili style. My mom wasn't a big fan of the toasted style of the biscuits but I thought they were great and enjoyed dipping them. Overall, really enjoyed everything from the food to the drinks to the sauces.

Cade and Ryan were the best! Came to dinner alone but they made me feel like I was right at home with their conversation and great recommendations! I was pleasantly surprised by the food the brisket was tender, the greens and sweet potato bake were perfect! My favorite was the jalapeño bomb, never had anything like it and I would definitely it them again!

Great food with portions that make sense. Loved all the choices of sides. They have great coalslaw and Mac and cheese

My husband and I visited OMC last week. He had the brisket platter and I had the Pitmaster sandwich. My sandwich was very good and my husband said his brisket was good. All the sides - bleu cheese potato salad, poblano corn and mac & cheese were some of the best we've ever had in a bbq restaurant. We sat at the bar and Sydney was great, very friendly and attentive. Only thing I wasn't crazy about was I thought the brisket on my sandwich was crisped up a little too much. Also a nice building.
