What People Are Saying About The Smoke House Restaurant

In Short
This old-school steakhouse attracts industry types for lunch, blue-haired ladies and gents for the early-bird dinner specials, and retro-seeking lounge lizards at night. Located across from Warner Bros. Studios, the ambience of this sedate Burbank establishment has remained intact since its 1946 debut. Moderately priced fare appeals to Valleyites seeking a meat-and-potatoes fix, or other standards like jumbo shrimp and broiled salmon. Locals swear by the house-specialty orange cheesy garlic bread.

My family has dined at The Smokehouse for four generations. A couple of us planned to dine there for Christmas based upon their advertising sign which said to "Call for Reservations." When I did so, I asked if reservations were still open and was told yes. Then when I said it was a party of two, I was told I couldn't make a reservation - that I could only just show up (on Christmas Day!) because I would then be seated "faster" than if I had a reservation! What kind of B.S. is that? I just want to alert others that the Smokehouse perhaps has recently changed hands or, for some other reason, is engaging in peculiar reservations rules (what restaurant refuses reservations for two people; do they have something against daters)? Anyway, if they are doing this, then I must question what other odd things they are doing in terms of the food and service.

I love their garlic cheese bread! Going just for that is worth the trip. Parking is either find it on the congested apartment street or valet. I don't mind valet, just hate to do it in the middle of the day during the week. The decor hasn't changed much, but I think that is part of the ambience and charm of this 60 year old restaurant. I definitely would recommend this place :

I had been wanting to try the Smoke House for a while, being fairly new to the area I heard it was a legendary place. I was a little disappointed; the food was okay, there wasn't anything wrong with it, but it was just okay. The service was fine, again nothing really special. I just wasn't impressed enough to want to go back. I thought the prices were way too high for the quality of food that was served.
