Reviews for Alma Smoke House Ennis in Ennis, TX
The Good, the service was good, but we were the only customers. The coleslaw was good, and so was the pulled pork. Love that... they didn't have sauce on it. The Bad, the mac and cheese is homemade and a a very bitter taste. Almost vinegar taste. Thesides we ordered were supposed to be the $5 price. The server said they had 3 price points on the sides. Not the 2 listed onthe menu. So we said we will take the $5. But were charged $8. So $16 for 2 sides. The Ugly, the brisket was dry, dry,dry, it doesn't make for good BBQ. The chicken was also very, very, dry. I didn't know you could dry out dark meat, but theymanaged to do it. And the smoke on the chicken, because of the dryness was rancid. The prices seemed reasonable until the billcame and the mistakes were on the bill. $70 for lunch and not a good one. We shared the $25 sampler and a pulled porksandwich with 2 sides and 2 iced teas. Lesson learned. Will not be back. And we usually give a restaurant three tries if wehave issues. Read more
This review is only for their ribeye. See picture for your self. I ordered a medium rare ribeye and baked potato. 40 min later... that?s the result. Not only was the steak small and well done, it was tasteless. And they gave me half a potato. All for $25.They might have decent BBQ but I would personally never return. Update: I want to clarify that the price for the ribeye was $25,not that they charged me $25. I changed my order to Ribs and brisket later, and the brisket was very dry. Ribs were ok, and thebest thing on the plate was their French fires. Read more
I love thier BBQ. My husband and l ordered different kinds of BBQ, pork, chicken, brisket and sausage. Really delicious! Sides... are also good! Especially mushed potato was the best I've ever eaten. Taste was mellow butter. Staffs were kind, nice andfriendly. We enjoyed with 80's hit music, too. They are dog friendly. Read more
If you want bbq this place is NOT for you. The brisket and ribs were dry and flavorless. The customer service was great for only... having 2 young ladies. The place itself is beautiful and probably a nice hang out for a couple of drinks to unwind. Read more
This is not brisket and def not smoked. Probably the worst ?bbq? I?ve ever had. This is pot roast. And the ribs were inedible.
Awesome place where to refill some energies after a day of hard work or just sightseeing around. Staff are very polite and... friendly, the place is clean and there is a good patio where kids can play in all safeties. Read more
