My husband and I went for Thursday evening brunch and we were not disappointed. The service was fantastic. Marvel looked after us all evening ensuring our glasses were always full. The food was lovely. We loved the sharing platter of starters; the chicken wings were perfect and the main course was excellent! We had a lovely date night and will definitely return!

Great American style bar hidden away in the Marina, awesome live music, plenty of TV screens to watch sport and quality food! Especially the Friday night brunch package... the fried chicken and spicy wings are soooo good 👍🏻However the desert could have been a little larger in size... the serving portion wasnt really suited for 4 people... but anyway minor detail!Highly recommended and you can use the Entertainer voucher for drink offers and A la carte menu.

Me personally not a fan of what they offer in menu and the way they cook it but overall for people who eat that kinda steaks are gonna love it for them they its like 3.5 or 4 stars.. For people like me who like hardcore food spicy and well cooked wont like to eat there

The brisket was so dry and i couldnt ate it so it was a waste of meat and money, but in other way the meat balls was the only good thing that i tried.

Firstly, difficult to find, subsequently, non-hot staff, provided by a waiter who seems very friendly. We receive our order, really nothing exceptional and of course to top it off, a price far too high compared to the quality of the products and the service. I would not come back and recommend

The Blacksmith claims to be the best smokehouse in town and I have no doubt in it. They serve some great bbq and other dishes along with mouth watering drinks and desserts to the Dubai folks after its opening few days back. It is located at Wyndham Dubai Marina, with a great outdoor area and indoor. We also had live music in the background to enjoy a perfect weekend.Started off with two instagram worthy drinks, Blue colada and strawberry mango Hawaiian. Both were refreshingly smooth and loved the flavors of both. I loved the blue colada which is quite similar to the classic pina colada with a touch of blue curacoa.For starters we had, Chicken tenders served with creamy honey mustard. It was crispy and fried perfectly.Stuffed smoked mushroom with veggies. This is a great option for vegetarians and the non-veg will also love it because of the mushroom stuffed with cheddar and roasted veggies.We also tried the Sliders which had three types mainly Shrimp Po boy,Beef brisket , pulled chicken. It was basically croissant filled with shrimps, chicken and beef. All three were exceptional and would love to go back for more.Dusted fries - Fries dusted with some spices. Loved it.BBQ lamb short ribs - Its a dish that we tried out of the menu which is a perfect one for meat lovers with big appetite. It is smoked to perfection low and slow for 10 hours and drizzled with white smith sauce.Be cautious of getting your hands and face dirty...BBQ apricot duck breast- A fast seller here , pan seared duck breast is smoked with apricot extract and smoked again to a caramelized perfection. It was served medium rare. A higly recommended dish here.Finally, for desserts we had Golden oreo banana pudding which was a simple one made with banana and golden oreo.Next was the grand choco waffo experience which can be easily shared among two to three people.Overall a great experience with awesome food and friendly staff.

Tucked away at Wyndham hotel, The Blacksmith offers a vast variety of cocktails, a great selection of smoked meat, rock music and sports broadcasting for anyone who wants to have a plain fun time.Ive been there three times so far, and the service, staff, ambience and food have been excellent. If you book on select days, you can avail some serious discounts for you and your friends.Go. And thank me later.

If you are a meat lover, especially slow cooked meat then you are going to really like this place. Do the words brisket, smoked meat, BBQ ribs make you drool? Then you would love this place.The terrace area is nice, cozy and light up beautifully. An indoor seating area is spacious and tables arent placed too close to each other.We had a lovely time enjoying the slow cooked lamb & ribs along with some cool beer. The portion size is generous and two of us couldnt finish our 2 main course dishes. Leftovers tasted amazing too..lolMy rating (#eatwithirene ):Food: 9/10. so yumm!Service: 9/10. Very attentive.Ambiance: 9/10. Casual relaxed ambiance.Price: 8/10. Slightly expensive but its priced at par with other places that save the same kind of food.

Located in Lamer with the beach view outside seating is worth sitting for. The ribs were slow-cooked into perfection. It was sooo tender, juicy and the meat is so soft it literally melts in ones mouth.. . The drinks Lemon mint and mango milkshake were absolutely refreshing.. .We Ordered:1. SMK Brisket Chips2. Bbq Glazed Chicken Wings3. USDA Smoked Beef Ribs (The Ribs were splendid! We got coleslaw as sides. )4. Smoked Brisket Bun5. Lemon Mint6. Mango MilkshakeStaff and owner are extremely friendly they are always super excited to explain to you their concept and how they serve things. If I may recommend a must visit, this place is where you should be dining next.Go now and enjoy an unforgettable life time experience.✔️Service 5/5✔️Ambiance 5/5✔️Staff 5/5✔️Food 5/5✔️Portions 5/5✔️Price 5/5

The Southern part of Dubai Marina was never known for the gastronomy or nightlife. Squeezed between high-rise and a popular neighbours like Jumeirah Beach, it used to be home to families and young office mates. Even tourists barely made it here. The situation changed with the opening of the very affordable, cosy and friendly Wyndham hotel.Focused on bringing together the local community for after hours and weekend entertainment, Wyndham’s team shows strong commitment to organizing exciting events. Just a few nights ago a fantastic new smoke house opened its doors and chimneys to a curios crowd. I was very lucky to witness it.Blacksmith is easy to find. Just trust your nose. The air around the restaurant is deliciously smoky with irresistible notes of wood and fire. Irresistible to the point that a ride one floor up in an elevator seemed endless and made me dream of the upcoming dinner. My night started with a sip of rich red at the bar right next to the entrance. The bartender wanted to mix something very special for me but anticipating an intense dinner I decided to stick with the classics.Orelle Young chef de cusinine and pitmaster made an appearance looking awesome in very manly apron holding a long pointy hook. One of those chefs who immediately establishes: “You are in for a treat.”Everything I tried: chicken wings generously coated in black pepper sauce, pulled beef with red chillies, ribs and jerk chicken was absolutely exceptional. Tasty, smoky, well flavoured and well spiced, I could feel how much love and soul got invested into every piece. My only complain it was quite impossible to stop and so I didn’t.Apart from eating, I danced to all time favourite American songs and music. Wyndham’s food and beverage manager participated in a one man show eating the spiciest chicken wings in the world and the audience didn’t hold back with cheers and applauds. The best night out ever!

Visited this place previously few times for evening Friday brunch as they always had entertainment voucher option. A week ago, we book a table for 7 person for Friday and got confirmation that we can use entertainment. Supposed to be a great evening to celebrate birthday. Got a call 3 hours prior booking time, when they said that entertainment isnt available and they have 3+1 offer. On our question that we booked for entertainment and it was confirmed by staff, they said that entertainment was never available! Such a liers! How can you call 3 hours prior and completely ruin the plans! Where guests was invited for birthday celebration! They didnt offer any solution and just give silly excuse! Removed offer from entertainment and pretend that its never been there. Will never recommend such place!

It was a first and last time to enter such place, waiters didnt welcome us, ignored us for a very long time, and when she came to ask about our orders after we called and called many times, she showed un comfortable and we saw it on her eyes saying you go and look for another place, we got to select our table ourselves as she didnt help much, when we were discussing the menu we were not showed any excitement to try any of the food, we left the place without ordering and none of the waiters bothered themselves to even look at our orders or apologies. We were Muslims and covering our heads with Hijab, such action shouldnt have a place here in the UAE!!!

I visited Blacksmith exclusively for the Brisket Sandwich but I was a disappointed. The meat was tough and the bread used was a bun instead of the toasted bread seen in other reviews.But the overall visit wasnt a disappointment. The wings were good, the Armadillo eggs were great, and the Lamb Ribs were exceptional. The service was also outstanding.Will I be visiting it again? Unlikely.

Visited during Winging Wednesday - Dhs 99 for 2 happy hour drinks plus unlimited wings. Me and my friends though we would destroy the special but we each only made it through 3 servings - They showed us ! Nice location , good service , great specials. Wish there were other flavours of wings besides honey bbq ( got old after second plate but maybe thats the idea) would have liked more people for some better atmosphere but hey it just meant we got our food faster ... Id visit again and if you havent, you totally should check it out !

Great place, great ambience. The food is impeccable but what really sets the place apart is their customer service especially Ms Noela. She was waiting our table two nights in a row and my my , it truly made our evening. She takes great pride in her work which reflects on the personalised customer service. Very attentive and super welcoming. A special mention for Afaq and Darwin too from Alluro restaurant.

This place is so stupendous and the whole atmosphere was very pleasant. The people and the scenery made everything feel so welcoming.(What I ate?)I had a Brisket Sandwich and some Beef Short Ribs. (being greedy) My girlfriend had Corn Pudding and Mac and Cheese. (saying shes on a diet? yeah okay.., but anyway...)But let me tell you, the flavors from that Brisket Sandwich were just massaging all of my taste buds individually. I definitely want to go back there again!#LoveThisPlace

I was severely disappointed with a recent experience I had at Blacksmith Dubai.The restaurant is on the entertainer for the 2 4 1 Thursday night brunch package. However, nowhere does it specify which brunch package is available. Allowing me to believe that I could select any.The server suggested the Prosecco package (which is the most expensive).As I didn’t want this package I asked for the regular package.I was shocked when the staff informed me that the Entertainer package was only redeemable with the Prosecco package, as it did not mention this anywhere else.The server said the member of staff who I spoke with on the phone informed me of this, which is not true.Not only are they trying to charge people for the most expensive package, but they are also misinforming the customer.When I challenged this, the staff just reiterated what they had previously said.I am appalled with the service and how nothing was done to rectify the situation. Which resulted in me leaving the restaurant.Very dissatisfied customer.

We went and had the lamb ribs and BBQ chicken. Lamb ribs were a bit on the fatty side, but the chicken was delicious and the sides of beans and coleslaw were great. Our server was very enthusiastic, even though it seemed to be relatively understaffed. Taking off 1 star because they do not carry local water.

We had the wings, beef rib, brisket sandwich. The smoke on the beef dishes was excellent, The beef Rib was super tender, juicy, moist and probably the best rib I’ve ever eaten. The rib sauce was off the chain, as were the slaw and sides!The brisket was a tad dry and would have preferred it had the same juicy moist texture as the rib. Both Nowela and Mabel were great servers, coupled with great Blues tunes, the wife & I had a great meal.Waiting for our Pecan pie Am sure it will be good. OMG the PECAN PIE WAS RIZDICULOUSLY GOOD!

This food menu makes your eyes salivate, let alone your mouth. It is impressive!I had the all-you-can-eat wings + 2 drinks deal, and I was stuffed after the first round. The wings are very tasty but they only have one sauce for it. My friend had the pulled lamb and THAT was a winner - it is so tender and juicy!The ambience was quiet when we went but it is a nice space. Unfortunately as it was too warm outside, we did not use their patio though it looked so nice out there.

First visit to Dubai, and upon recommendation from a coworker, decided to visit the restaurant with the best brisket in the Middle East. Mr. O’s BBQ and brisket were some of the best I’ve encountered, and his BBQ beans were superb! The flavor is delightful, not over-powering, with just enough USA southern sweetness and a hint of chili spicing that brings those back-home, backyard memories flooding back. Cannot wait to head back there, bring a few friends. Highly recommended, unquestionable, you will not be disappointed!

While on vacation, my family and I needed a taste of home, and The Blacksmith delivered!I dont understand the reviews claiming that the food here isnt authentic, but Im American, with family from the South, and the food here took me back to summer family reunions in my aunties backyard. It may not be for everyone, but this is a taste of what we eat, people (lol)!The Texas Brisket sandwich, shrimp poboy sliders, and Pookys Peach Cobbler were AMAZING! Yes, the food took a few, but we were in no rush, and I prefer my meals prepared with care and not just shoved out as though I was in a McDonalds or Applebees or something. The food is worth the wait.The atmosphere is so relaxed and the Staff is wonderful. After asking our waiter to pay our compliments to the chef, we were pleasantly surprised to learn that the chef was the owner! He came out and chatted with us for a bit before getting back to work. Great convo and it turns out he grew up in my home city! Small world.This place is a must. Give it a try!

So my partner and I were really excited to visit a true American smokehouse near our apartment. The website shows the real American pitmaster and the images of Jack Daniels and promises the real deal.Well it’s not. It’s a much more expensive version of Perry & Blackwelders in Madinat Jumeriah. We arrived at 6pm to avail the happy hour - which is very limited compared to the nearby Nell Gwyne at the Byblos. Only selected beers none of which are draft are offered. 2 of our choices were not available so we ended up with the cheapest, smallest bottle of cider each for AED38 but hey it was happy hour so we got 2.Ok .... the food. The real deal, the true American pitmaster blah blah. Brisket sandwich in Texas toast was AED99 with no side included - it’s AED95 including a choice of side at P&B’s.The meat was cold and I still don’t know yet how it tasted as the sauce and chilies totally overpowered any thing else.I’ve travelled all over the USA over the last 20 years from LA to Chicago, from Las Vegas to San Francisco and This was nowhere near any of the smokehouse’s I’ve visited.Please save yourself the wasted journey. If you’re in Dubai, use the difference in price to pay for a cab to P&B at the Madinat or go to Famous Dave’s in Abu Dhabi. You’ll thank me honest.
