Capitol Smokehouse & Grill

Outstanding! Here from Florida, wanting some “real” bbq. They did not disappoint!

The chicken fried steak was one of the specials of the day, so that's what I ordered. I was then told the cook was making deliveries, which I understand, we are living in an environment where good help can be difficult to find. They informed me that the cashier could make it but it would be a wait and asked if I still wanted it. Yes. Not a bad wait and the food was good. The baked potato salad was the best I've ever had.

Great spot for lunch!! It's the only place I cared to order the meatloaf from on more than one occasion. Everything I've ever had from this restaurant is absolutely amazing!!

The jalapeno cornbread is a staple for me. I go there, they have other types of bread to choose from with your lunch. However, for me it's just a really cool item that is on the menu. It's not super spicy but it's a little different.

The next time I go here I'm going to have to try their barbecue, it's supposed to be amazing. It is a cafeteria type style ordering system, you walk through. Just tell him what you want and they serve it up. They offer to go orders which is extremely convenient if you're running low on time. I do know that they cater also which is a huge plus if you have lots of hungry people. Better catch him before 2:00 p.m. cause they do close by then.

Ok, so I had lunch from here twice to get a somewhat balanced review. On the first visit I had the smoked chicken leg quarter with green beans, mac-n-cheese and corn bread. Everything was excellent except the corn bread which was just bland, like not much actual corn flavor. Then today I had the half slab rib plate with green beans, baked potato salad and a roll (yep, skipped the corn bread). The green beans and roll were good but the tater salad was just ok. I'm not a massive fan of the dish but I've had better at other places. Which leaves the ribs and they're kind of a mixed bag. There wasn't much of a rub on them so you really need the sauce. I chose the mild sauce and honestly it's not bad. Could've used a bit more actually. They were cooked well but were also a bit on the tough side. Definitely not fall off the bone style. I don't think I would order them again but perhaps I'll try the brisket next time. The server both times was friendly and helpful. Most definitely a cool little lunch spot.

"Fabulous"" Neighborhood BBQ, was the best find since we left Kansas in October. Plate 1-pulled pork, baked beans, baked potato salad ..Plate 2-meatloaf, coleslaw and beans. Both included jalapenos cornbread.
ANYTHING you order will be THE BEST EVER. MUST VISIT WHEN IN LITTLE ROCK. Owners are so friendly. Hours 11-2.
