THE EBI REVIEW: Smokehouse was pretty deserted on a Friday at 10PM, despite being open until an original 1:20AM. Easy parking is available in front and along the neighboring side streets. Picnic table seating is plentiful if uninviting.
I go here for the milkshakes ($3.25), which are thick and delicious. The food is sub-par given the prices (compared to other fast food). The grilled chicken breast ($4.50) was limp and flavorless; the veggie burger with cheese ($4.75) forgettable. Lettuce and tomato are considered “deluxe” toppings and will set you back another 60 cents. The fries are good and crispy, but not exactly hot. Dinner for two (2 burgers, 2 fries and 1 shake) was $20.
Bottom line: Tasty shakes, mediocre food. More local prestige than a fast food chain, but more expensive too.

Sure, congratulations for this useful post. I will be preserving this post regarding future reference due to great lessons inside. I had always thought that the best way to learn this kind of topic is through those webinars along with videos offered by professionals. Those videos go step by step into tips on how to help those interested in the issue. Your content does the same thing. Additionally it is a timesaver unlike those videos and webimars.
