Coffee? DELICIOUS!! Breakfast? DELECTABLE!! Service? DIVINE!! This was my first time at the Smokin' Little Diner and no way is it my last. I came at about 11:20AM and hadn't eaten yet so I decided to get breakfast. My goodness.... I order the BBQ Breakfast with pulled chicken, home fries, sourdough toast and with the bourbon BBQ sauce in the servers suggestion. It's serves with queso over the top. (Just the right amount) It came out on a small pizza tray and looked incredible. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The combination of the eggs with the tangy delightfulness of the pulled chicken and queso was TO DIE FOR!! I should not have eaten the entire thing but I did not want the joy to end. The waitress was super warm and friendly and helped me some suggestions which were spot on. (I'm mad I didn't get her name). My coffee was filled a few times in a nice big mug and it was SO GOOD!! The place itself has a cool diner fell to it, clean and comfortable. I couldn't stayed for a while drinking coffee and finishing some work I was tending to. I cannot wait to go back and try their other BBQ menu items.

What a diner should be (BBQ!)!! Great atmosphere, experienced staff serving up big portions with all the things that made diners a staple. Had breakfast and marked it on the map to be sure I come back.

I've driven past this place a thousand times and I can't for the life of me figure out why I hadn't been here before. Being as it was lunchtime and being as I was in the mood for some BBQ i made the 5 minute drive over to the SLD to chow down some BBQ. Parking is ample for its size, with spaces on the side of the building and around the back. The Diner itself is exactly what you'd expect....an old school diner feel and appearance. Seating is somewhat limited and I would imagine there being a wait for a place to sit on a busy lunchtime. I pulled in here at around 11:20 on a weekday morning and it was still pretty busy. I was greeted by a server and seated by myself, I ordered the Brisket Sandwich with Fries with Bourbon Sauce ( they have multiple sauces all their own creations ) About 15 minutes later my food came out. The fries are OK, nothing to write home about and pretty basic skinny fries..but the Sandwich .......oh my the Sandwich was incredible. Good quality Texas Toast, and a nice, thick, tender and tasty piece of Brisket. Very filling and very tasty and you can tell everything here is crafted with a passion for the style of food. If you like BBQ , you need to check out the Smokin Little Diner

Small diner with big atmosphere. The best barbeque place I have gone to locally. The brisket was flavorful without being overbearing. (No gallons of liquid smoke to ruin it. ) The mashed potatoes were actually garlic mashed potatoes. Perfectly textured creamy yet slightly lumpy topped with a thick beefy homemade gravy. The carrots were tender and cooked to the perfect zone of texture, sweetness and flavor. 4 meals and beverages plus tip equaled just under 98 dollars. Money well spent. The server was friendly helpful with suggestions and most importantly kept or glasses full.

Looking for some FANTASTIC BBQ? Look no further than the Smokin’ Little Diner. The food is delicious (especially the barbecue sauces; their selection is amazing), the staff is engaging and friendly, and the 1950s ambiance is comforting and accommodating. This was my first time here, but I will be back and will bring my friends and family!
