Smoke And Barrel - Sanford

We ate here early Friday evening. The service was good. Fast, friendly and accurate. That's the main. reason for the 2nd star. The food we ordered was average too terrible. The Ruben sandwich and sides were ok, nothing special. The brisket was very fatty and the bark was so hard it couldn't be cut with a knife. It also had very little flavor. If a restaurant has brisket on the menu that is what I usually order. This is possibly the worst brisket I've ever had. I won't be eating here again.

First time, this cool revitalized NY style vintage building makes me wish I lived in Sanford! Great service, excellent food, and affordable prices-we enjoyed our dinner, and watching groups of families and friends have a fun Saturday night out in the town. I can?t wait to go back. I ordered blackened mahi taco special.

Worse experience at a restaurant in years. I rarely review anything but I couldn 't let this go without doing it. Waited over 45 minutes for a brisket sandwich. When it arrived it had brisket scraps not brisket slices, and it was only about a third of the meat you would expect. I have had brisket sandwiches elsewhere, I know what to expect. When I asked about the meat quantity, the waitress actually said that they had ran out of meat. So instead of just telling us so we could order something else the tried to spread the spoon fulls of scraps over two sandwiches. So after we combined the brisket and made half a sandwich, the waitress finally brought us a small plate of pork so we had something to put on the rest of the bare bread we had left. We asked to speak to a manager, the waitress said it was the bartender. We watched them talk several times while looking in our direction but he would not come to speak with us. So after 30 mimuted I got tired of waiting.. Contrary to what he said when we finally approached him at the bar, it was not that busy. He would only say that he was not the manager, he had no control over what the kitchen sent out, he was only a bartender. I have had better food and certainly better service from my local McDonald 's.

I think this might be the best place for god food and great selection of craft beer anywhere in Sanford. I?ve only been here a few times, but every time I come, the food is great and the staff are always friendly. The restaurant is clean and I don?t have any complaints. I look forward to coming back next year when I?m in town again.
