Reviews for The Boatyard at Smokey Joe's BBQ in Stamford, CT
These guys know how to work a smoker. Food had some real flavor and the service was incredibly friendly. Drinks are super strong... - great for a night out. Highly recommend the deep sea chowder, brisket (with spicy BBQ sauce), and coleslaw. Read more
The food was delicious and the drinks are amazing. Definitely not the heavy on the stomach but definitely filling. Everyone is... super friendly and welcoming. I had a great time and can?t wait to go back for more! Read more
Came for anniversary lunch, I often pass by this place and finally decided to try it. The waitress was very nice but the food... was unfortunately horrible. I don?t remember having such bad food in quite few years, honestly if ever. The overall atmospherewas just ok, kind of like a bar or pub, saw spider webs on windows behind blinds. Ordered calamari for starter which was justok. We waited for the entrees around 45 min, place was super slow and there was no one there. Not sure why it took so long. Wehad ribs (definitely not recommend those-almost like cooked days ago and just warmed up) and salmon which was over cooked, dry.Sides made out of rice and cooked vegetables were also far from good-looked and as if they saw better days. Worst part was whenmy husband found hair in his food which should be a total no no. We?re not people who make a fuss but he mentioned it whenwaitress came to check in on us. She asked if there is anything they can do but we said no, it would be at least courteous tooffer to take drinks of the tap but they didn?t do that. We paid full price and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.Not recommending this place, it has bbq in its name but nothing is actually from the bbq and rather from oven griddle or even apan. You won?t find an enticing smoke smell nearby as there is nothing done on the bbq. Sad place, old food, no customerservice. Would give zero stars if I could. Read more

Loved Boatyard at Smokey Joe?s. Had a great Fathers Day dinner with 7 of us, including 3 children. Ribs were delicious - meaty &... tender with a great bbq sauce. We loved the Fish Chowder. The coconut cod was a bit overcooked and tough, which kept it frombeing a perfect score. Service was friendly and attentive. Topped it off with the best lava cake and homemade apple pie. We willbe back. Read more
