Such a fun local neighborhood spot to catch the game or have a drink. Good local beers on tap. They have rotating specials for food/drinks and do text specials often. We went on 20 wings for $10 and also got the smokin fries. Everything was delicious as always. I also recommend the chicken sandwich. They also do live music and other events, definitely a spot to check out.

Ordered online at 7:10 for .50 cent wings I was driving and my friends tell me they are out of bone in wings upon arrival 7:18 I go inside and tell them I apologize I was just informed you dont have bone in can I switch to boneless the bartender says of course. cook who also runs the food out comes out with attitude and asks if I speak Spanish and proceeds to tell me to read the sign that s says out of boneless wings. My friends all get their wings and around 7:30. Around 7:50 they post a sign that says no boneless wings I then ask if my wings will still come out and the bartender (who is also waitressing by herself) says unfortunately no. At this point I ask if I can cancel all the food and the bartender says she will talk to the manager. All is well when the manager/cook/runner comes out and continues to claim she doesn t speak English I speak Spanish and say it was rude for her to ask if I speak English and point at a sign to read that says no bone in wings I explain to her I apologized to the bartender and requested boneless. with an attitude she calls me a gringo and claims she doesn t understand me while her friends sit at a table and laugh. Very disappointed in the whole situation but the bartender who handles all the customers needs a raise and deserves the World

We have been going to this place since it was Smokin Beauty. Always loved the vibe and the food. The last couple of times we have been there, it has been a pretty bad experience unfortunately. I really hate to leave a bad review, because the owners genuinely seem like cool people. Our visit on Feb 25 2024 will be our last. The wife ordered a burger and I ordered 10 wings. From the time we requested the order on the union app, until we got our food was 43 minutes. The place only had three tables with people inside, so it is not like they were super busy. When the food finally showed up, I mentioned to the woman coming from the kitchen if they were having staffing issues. She simply said no and went away with her grumpy face. Wings were cold, burger was OK.

We went when it was smokin beauty, and I still remember how good the banh mi sandwich was. Good vibes, good food. Not sure what happened, but they shifted into serving generic and forgettable bar food, and rebranded into a pub. The chicken sandwiches we got seemed like they were cooked in a microwave. Sad to see a place where we had such a good experience turn into another run of the mill, mediocre bar. Not terrible, just absolutely forgettable.

We used to LOVE this place when it was Smokin Beauty. Somewhere along the way the owners decided to change the name and the menu (same owners btw). This past weekend, we ordered 2 chicken sandwiches and wings. First of all, it was IMPOSSIBLE to place an order online they do not have their full menu listed online, so I tried to call and place it , they did not answer and I tried 3 times, it just led me to a FULL voice mailbox. So, in an attempt to circumvent this, I ordered 2 grilled chicken sandwiches and specified in the notes the 2 I wanted ( 1 spicy and 1 Korean both with slaw and pickles) . What we received was NOT THIS. They threw what tasted like chicken cooked in a microwave (it was NOT grilled, just bland, naked white chicken and was very rubbery) on a bun, with cabbage and pickles and put the Korean and spicy sauce ON THE SIDE (as if it was a condiment). What place makes a sandwich like this and charges for it? Also, their boneless Buffalo and Korean wings are just frozen pre-breaded nuggets from a bag that they stick in a fryer and place the Buffalo and Korean sauces again ON THE SIDE. They do not even attempt to coat the chicken in the sauce. This was truly one of the worst experiences I ve had at a restaurant. Also, their chicken sandwiches were nearly $13 and this is what we received. I m unsure what has happened to this place, but it s gone downhill significantly.

This is a quaint neighborhood locale. It reminds you of where the patrons know one another by name because they are regulars. The bartender/waitress was super nice. The day we visited, they had brisket tacos. With an exception to the slaw, the tacos were phenomenal. I would have those again. We also had the wings. The pictures of the wings look far better than the real ones. I have to admit I was disappointed. They were like wings from the grocery store cooked in an air fryer. It is a great place to watch sports.

Dog friendly local sport bar. I enjoy their lemon pepper wings and the spicy chicken sandwich. They have a variety of local beers on tap and a great location to watch the FC games. Parking lot is a small and can be full on big game days so plan ahead. They have a couple of dart boards and have trivia nights once a week.

Formerly known as Smoking Beauty ATX. This pub is very chilled and relaxed. Great drinks and their food selection may be small, but it s actually worth trying. Especially the Korean flavored wings. Daily specials like Burger Mondays are something to check out. Love this place.

Great neighborhood bar! They changed their concept recently from BBQ restaurant to more of a sports bar. Definitely different now, but still great! Wings are good and there is a decent beer selection. Owner suggested I try the cheese curds with the honey hot sauce on the side and it was so great! Like mini mozzarella sticks but better! I also like that the bar staff really tries to get to know you. Bartender remembered my preferred drink (which was a combo of two of the beers on tap) and I had only met her once!
