Silver King Smokehouse & Saloon — Restaurant in Superior

-- They finally released my money after holding it hostage for 10 days. They never communicated at all, no attempts to rectify or communicate the situation. I'll probably never come back.

[Updated Review] - 8/3/2025 - Upset. I came here to eat, ordered 3 sides + drink, just like I did last time. The lady working, she asked if I wanted to keep my tab open, I said no thank you, that should have been the end of that transaction. That's not what happened though.

I get to the end of my meal, I order a pound of brisket and a pound of pork to go, an additional $60 odd some dollars. I ask if I can pay it down with cash, so I hand her $60 in cash, she takes it, I pay something like $13 total with my tip from my original order in the beginning after the $60. I'm really happy I grabbed receipts, otherwise I would have absolutely no proof that I handed this business $60 cash that has magically disappeared because they've had a pending charge of $68.46 on my account for over* a week now. It was more than that, a $10.15 charge has already posted.

When I noticed this issue, they were closed, I went there on a Sunday, I emailed them on Monday (8/4/2025), they never responded, it's now 8/11/2025. An email to clarify what's going on would be nice. So far they're just holding my money hostage and I don't like it, I'm going to dispute this charge with my bank here pretty soon.

I don't know what the hell they're doing, I don't know what this charge is, I don't even know why I was charged this much if I paid it all down with cash, the original charge was like $78 - it should have been like $13 total since I paid $60 cash first. Right now I just feel robbed and it sucks, because the food was good, the town is a good 40 minute drive away, otherwise I would have been there this last weekend instead of here in my review.

It would be nice if this wasn't an issue in the first place.

[Original Review] - Months ago Incredibly fast service, food was out within a minute or two.

You pick your own seat, when you're ready to order, you walk up to the front kiosk and they take it, and then it'll be out shortly.

I ordered 3 sides for lunch, no meats, but I had a frontline view of the kitchen window so I could see how fast they were moving for everyone else and it was FAST. I ordered green chili mac and cheese, coleslaw (slaw), and house-cut fries (think shoestring fries). I put some of their house BBQ sauce on the green chili mac and cheese and it was absolutely delicious, they should honestly make a BBQ mac and cheese variant with their BBQ sauce in the mix, maybe add some brisket.

I got two water cups, easy to refill, great padded seating, they have a bar you can sit at, or a large outdoor patio situation. My food was amazing, even though it was just sides, it tasted great, and it was hot. Loved it. I would drive 40 minutes out of my way again just for some sides. Great prices too. It was like $14.23 with an 18% tip included, not bad, great quality.

One thing to note, the fork situation is plastic but...

My wife and I drove to Superior specifically to try out lunch at the Silver King Smokehouse. What can I say. We were disappointed. Did not know that the lunch menu is different from the dinner menu and that all they serve for lunch is sandwiches and salads. We each had the only item on the menu that remotely matched what we drove there for - a pulled pork sandwich. Way overpriced at $13 for what must have been a 4 inch small sandwich with not a lot of meat. And the pork lacked taste. Wanted fries as a side (your sandwich comes with no sides). No fries - out. So we asked for the potato salad. No potato salad - out. Settled on a small portion wedge salad for $3. At that price I won't complain about the size other than as I said, the sandwich comes with no side and for $13 they could have thrown in chips or a salad. So those are the cons. here are the pros. The wait staff was friendly, courteous and fast. The wedge salad was fantastic. Cold crisp and well complemented with a blue cheese dressing, grape tomatoes and bacon bits. The beer special is available all day, every day - what was probably a 12 ounce serving - Miller High Life Draft for $3.50. Seating is provided inside and out. Plenty of on-street parking. Would I go back? Not for lunch, but maybe for dinner to try out what we came for...

We had a nice Sunday at the Arboretum and then took the scenic highway to Globe. We got off the highway and drove through downtown Globe and Superior on our way back to Phoenix and came across Silver King. We had our dog, Shadow, with us and he was pleased that both inside and out were dog-friendly. We sat in the shade on the patio in sight of two massive smokers. My wife and I both got pulled-pork sandwiches. The cole slaw comes on the sandwich, so we both opted to leave the cole slaw off. I got a side of fries with mine and shared. We both shared our sandwiches with Shadow, who gobbled it hungrily! We agree with Shady that the food was very good and we'd definitely dine here again. We ordered at the front door and they brought the food to our table. Staff was very friendly and helpful, "I'll be around here, please let me know if you need anything else." Prices were a little higher than I expected, but I think that everywhere I go in these post-Pandemic times. Would definitely dine here again the next time we go to...
