About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
Whereas traditional Tex-Mex uses a Santa Maria Grill, Tex-Que derives from our offset Smoker to cook all of our proteins and incorporate them into our inclusive menu. Smoky Rose offers all of the Texas staples from our top rated Brisket Queso, to our delicious smoked Brisket Tacos. We have it all - made fresh in our scratch kitchen. Bring your furry friends to our dog park and enjoy the beautiful weather at our patio with live music every weekend. Located right across from the Dallas Arboretum.

Address: 8602 Garland Rd. Dallas, TX 75218.

    The service was impeccable. We were seated at the exact time of our reservations. Our waitress was friendly and made excellent cocktail recommendations. Food was serviced 10-15=minutes after placing our order. Our dinner was going extremely well until my second bit into my meal and to my surprise I pulled out of my mouth a bread tie. The waitress was summoned immediately and she quickly apologized, offer me another meal, and credited our bill for several items. This was not our first time eating at Smoky Rose, accidents do happen, so I would definitely return to this restaurant again and I strongly recommend you try it.

    We sat on the covered patio for brunch and enjoyed the live music after walking around st the arboretum. The chicken fried brisket is out of this world delicious. I will definitely be back.

    We love Smokey Rose! The food is consistently delicious. One recommendation would be to turn down the live music. They are great, but it overpowers conversations.

    Sat outside and it was a beautiful day. The noise from the road was a little loud. We got guacamole and chips that was very good. I had the pulled pork and it was good. My husband had a salad but he kept having to take out the hard core (5) of the lettuce head that was in his salad. It wasn’t very green either. Had fried okra and potato salad that was good. Our server was nice and we got our drinks and food quickly but she didn’t come around to refill our drinks. It seemed she was the only waitress working the patio.

    Smoky Rose is always delicious and has a great ambience. We sat on their indoor/outdoor patio on an unexpectedly chilly day. They were kind to keep the overhead heaters on for us, though. The only complaint was that the music was too loud on the speakers. We requested that they turn it down, but it seemed like the volume only decreased slightly. It was very hard to hear the people at the other end of the table, and there were only 6 of us, so it wasn't a large table or group. Otherwise, great experience as always.
