Smokey Jose's — Restaurant in Grand Haven

NOT TRADITIONAL BBQ. Ordered a pulled chicken sandwich along with the pick two for ribs and brisket. You can see in the pic that the ribs were jerky holding on for dear life to the bone. More seasoning than meat was on them. The meat was bone dry and tough to chew like jerky. The brisket they brought me was pulled pork, they tried to tell me it was "pulled brisket", never heard of that. Then they brought out a slice of brisket. It was a yellow slab of meat that was clearly NOT done on the barbecue. You ever seen yellow brisket ever? I have not. It was also extremely dry, I didn't finish it. 14$ for an 8oz margarita was diabolical. 35$ for jerky ribs and sauteed brisket was a personal attack.

Well the bartender them walks up with a bunch of attitude like we were super jerks for sitting there she made our drinks dropped them off didn't even say a word to us. Then the guy (server/manger) not quite sure took our order of nachos. Food comes out super bland cold and boring. We try to get another drink finally got the guys attention the bartender wasn't having any of it...got my margarita we eat the food never being checked on again had to ask after a while to get the check. Then they proceeded to pass our table many times without acknowledging us finally the sweet girl that literally just clocked in cashed us out. I like to try to support new businesses but it was so awful. I have been a bartender for 20 years and was just so...
