We haven’t been here in at least 7 years but decided to try it again and we were pleasantly surprised!!! Stephen was very attentive, food was great, and they even had good options for vegetarians too - everyone in my family happy :). We will put this back into our restaurant rotation. (Only took pic of the vegetarian meal sorry but meat eaters ate every bite)

Medium price range for average BBQ but better than some of the other chain places. But the service is typically decent and the place is pretty clean as well so that's a good thing. Would I go back probably but theirs several other good BBQ places IN Wellington. But yes this location will probably be given a few tries before deciding if they just had an off day or if it's actually really Good or what not since it was just average based on a single visit to this location. But have been to other locations that were just average.

Mega nachos were enough for 4, can’t imagine an entree after these. Victoria was a great server too.

Holy moley, Bob at the bar is by FAR, the best bartender I have had in over 30 years of drinking. A keen sense of humor and dry wit made our experience exceptional. The food is what it is but if he's working, it takes it to a new dimension! Highly highly recommended!

It is a good place to eat. Tasted food. The negative thing was the waiting time. It took like 45 minutes to get the food.Vegetarian options: Veggie burger

I've been going to this restaurant for years. We decided to have dinner here after being out of the area for a couple of years, and we were very disappointed. The fried pickles were overcooked, rubbery, and greasy. I ordered my burger medium, but it was at best medium rare, closer to rare. The only bright spot was our server Tristan, who was very conscientious.

Received emails today from Smokey Bones, promoting their today only, BOGO Brisket Platter. Arrived at 5:45 and ordered two Brisket Platters, and was forwarned they were running out. After 45 minutes our platters arrived. Not 4 neartly slices neatly arranged on the plate, rather a huge piece of fat, no meat attached, two small slices and chunks , like Fresh Cuts dog food. I have order brisket there several times and NEVER has it looked like that. Obviously we sent the platters back and asked for a replacement, however were told that was the end of it, they were trying to stretch it out, and we could wait an additional 45 when the next brisket will be ready to be served. That was unacceptable. We each switched to a burger which was mediocre at best. There was no price adjustment. The burgers ending up costing 50% more that the two Brisket Platters. While there,we saw 4 tables leave after being told there was currently no brisket, and numerous other tables ( including two on each side of us) that ordered a substitute meal. What a gimmick, advertise a delicious brisket meal , don't have any cooked, and have patrons end up paying 50% more for a burger. What a great way to shaft your customers. I could understand if this occurred around closing time, but not 5:45. All I know is we won't be returning, and advise you to dine elsewhere. I guarantee you'll get better food and service than Smokey Bones in Wellington by doing so.

This was my first time at Smokey Bones but it certainly won’t be my last. Victoria was our server and she was very patient and helpful. I was extremely pleased with the recommendations she gave me. Everything was delicious.

Came for my so's birthday and we loved it. The loaded nachos were amazing. We also ordered a bonfire for 3 that was delicious! The waitress Erin was very sweet and attentive. We finished our experience with a delicious cheesecake and chocolate cake.

Visited on 3.7.23: Found a late night spot till 1 am. I tried the chili, which was decent. It made me think almost a roast beef than chili and does have beans, which is fine with me. I then sampled the reg nachos with chicken. Again, it was decent, but a lot of food and chicken was meh. For dinner, I had the 2 rib plate. They are lukewarm and not very tender fall off the bone ribs, very disappointed. The 2 sides I got were mashed potatoes and baked beans. Mashed potatoes were meh, and the baked beans were super sweet. Garlic bread was good and perfect toast Over all disappointed esp being a BBQ lover from Texas. So I'll chalk some to being late but not an excuse. Waitress Amanda was great and stayed on top of my drinks and very friendly.
The ribs are fantastic. Riley our waitress was very nice and upbeat. First time I have been here in years and really enjoyed it.

The food was good. Lots of flavor and sticky barbecue sauce on the ribs. Yum. The service was good but a little slow. The server could have been a little more attentive to our needs as far as providing extra napkins and clearing the table of items that are not being used.I thought it was extremely thoughtful for the server to provide an ice cream and cake treat for our two birthday girls. All in all, everyone enjoyed their meals.

From the hostess to the server, Erin, and kitchen staff - the food, atmosphere was excellent. We haven't been here since before covid. Thank you Erin, we have another great place to eat.

Sat for 15 minutes until the server finally showed up. After taking our order it took another 20 minutes for our drink orders to come in. When they did they were incorrect. The food was ok we all had burgers. Once the bill came they charged us for the drinks we didn't have. It was a rough experience overall highly unlikely to return.

Ordered the nacho. They were burnt and were missing most of the toppings. The sandwiches were also dry and didn't come with sauce. I usually like Smokey Bones. Very disappointed in this location.
