Gerrit MarshallJanuary 19, 2016A great Wisconsin staple. Martini selection and expertise, superb. Steaks as they should be. Low key atmosphere. You can whisper your secrets. Go here or miss out.
Best steaks in the Midwest for a reason- yum! Love the relish plate. Pricey, but you get SO much food that you get your money's worth!
JH H-DMay 28, 2020Their takeaway for restaurant week 2020 was top notch! The steak tips and pork tenderloins were so tasty!
Annette SteeleAugust 27, 2017Loved this place. I will definitely go back. The atmosphere, staff and food were great. I highly recommend the Journalist martini and the filet mignon.
Jody Eis-KraemerDecember 8, 2013Smoky's has the old school supper club atmosphere that I remember as a child growing up in NE WI. The filet mignon is fantastic (melts in your mouth).
Malt & Barley ChroniclesOctober 29, 2014Superb steaks, old school ice cream drinks, killer hash browns. A true Madison tradition.
ParintachinMay 28, 2011The Journalist cocktail is surprisingly full of win. Astringent gin with a citric note of lime and triple sec and just a hint of sweetness to cut the dry. Very adult and very refreshing.
Cosmopolitan MagazineJune 15, 2011The sweetest Cosmo Cocktail you'll ever order! The Malibu Coconutini is a delicious concoction of rum, chocolate liqueur, and it comes garnished with a chocolate lollipop. Yum-my! Read more
Justin SpauldingApril 29, 2016Great steaks, great hashbrowns and the best Makers Mark Manhattan - up, it was HUGE!
Three Olives MadisonJuly 11, 2011Martini Bob is a Three Olives guru! Have him mix you up a Key Lime Pie Martini using Three Olives DUDE, Three Olives Vanilla & pineapple juice - perfection!
Blake RobertsonNovember 4, 2011Old school and a little divey, this is one of the steak triumvirate in Madison. Perhaps even more famous for the cocktails.
Order the Fallon martini, I heard someone awesome invented it!
Molly smithJuly 22, 2011Very cute host on Tuesday nights. Great ice cream drinks too. YUMMY to both ;)
K. DingfelderOctober 22, 2011Sit at the bar! Better food and martinis!!! Bob the bartender is awesome!
Chris AndersonMay 31, 2011The kind of outdoor patio you wouldn't mind showing off to the family. Say hi to your mother for me. Alrigh
