The Grill

Great food. service. friendly people. they will not be disappointed! spacious seating and unique decor!

Back in February my wife and I were in town doing family genealogy research and we discovered the Galax Smokehouse what an amazing discovery!! The meats are wonderful and made even better by the AMAZING sauces. We bought a bottle to take home with us and are still enjoying it. I need to figure out how to get a few bottles shipped to me!! Eat here, you will love it!!! 5 stars!!!!!

We are traveling and found the Smokehouse by chance. What a find! From the moment we walked in we were made to feel like family. Anthony was fantastic, and the best server I've had the pleasure of dining with in YEARS!.. the BANTER (Roll Tide Anthony and not the Galax kind); the conversation; and the great recommendations for food, sauces, sides. He and every member of the Smokehouse team were absolutely fabulous.

Was in town for the night and looking to try the local cuisine, so I ventured to the Galax Smokehouse because bbq sounded good that evening and it was a little late in the evening. I asked the waitress what she recommended and she suggested the ribs. Soooo, ribs it was! A half a rack (6) of tender, meaty ribs and your choice of 4 bbq sauces. I ordered baked beans and a side salad with that as well. For dessert was a YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE DISAPPOINTED, VERY TASTY, AWARD WINNING BANANA PUDDING! The baked beans had pork in them but lacked flavor as I would expect them to have, but the ribs were deliciously tender and that is why I was there. Very good. I did order a cup of Brunswick stew to sample but apparently that was overlooked but it was removed from the bill. No problem. The service was prompt and polite. I would return here and I'd recommend the bbq here too!

The Galax Smokehouse is a great spot along the main drag. I really liked the indoor decorations and historical images. I liked the wall dedicated to veterans. I tried the ribs and brisket. The brisket came shredded and mostly, uniformly colored. The meat was moist and tasted great. It 's not covered up in sauce but a variety available. Must order to get the sauce low down though, lol ; The ribs were not over seasoned and smoked thoroughly. You can tell they 're not boiled first. Not fall off the bone style. I enjoyed the sides as much as the protein. The slaw was crisp and tangy. The mashed potatoes were the best though. A nearby patron ordered the fried potatoes (crisps/chips , they looked delicious too. My guess is that the brisket sandwich is hard to beat here. Can 't say it 's my favorite BBQ place but definitely a great spot and I 'm sure it 's someone 's favorite. I 'll be back every chance I get just the same :
