Reviews of Smokey O'Grady's (Restaurant)

Lewis Mostowy

A mainstay in East Lyme for decades... Good food at reasonable prices and great beer selection... Go for the garlic pepper parmesan wings bone in, with a space dust to drink... Ask for side of cayenne pepper an extra blue cheese... You will not be disappointed

Jayson Livingstone

Great boneless wings and BBQ

Cody Frawley

Great area with a nice big bar

Jonathon Puhalla

Have not tried the food, the bartender was nice and the drinks were reasonably priced. The popcorn was stale.

Vicki Long

This place seems to be a popular local hang out. It's a dump and the bathroom floor smelled like piss. Food is ok.

Billy Morlong

Wings are tasty, drinks are fairly cheap and plenty of TV's to view your favorite sports. However customer service was severely lacking. I thought it was customary to greet your guests when they came in but I guess not at O'Grady's. The younger male bartender has ZERO personality. When he came to the table he just stared with a blank look on his face without saying anything, like may I help you, can I take your order, what would you like to drink....nothing! When he delivered our food..nothing.. no can I get you anything else or everything look okay. Never checked back to make sure we didn't need anything or that the food was okay. Granted we only had wings, but still. After we had finished the wings we were going to order another drink but never came back and when he finally did he had already closed out our bill. So we got the hint and left. If we do come back it will be for the wings and they will be TO GO.

Courtney Holmwood

Best bartenders around. Cheap drafts, super wings

Bob Mcdermott

Fantastic food and terrific service from Danielle

Rainbow Goo

The wings here are delicious. So many sauce choices and so far all fantastic. Good comfort food all around.

Heidi Rydene

The food is not the healthiest, but when you need comfort food and friendly folks, this is the place. I actually ate a side of mac and cheese! I almost never eat mac and cheese, creamy, rich, and so decadent. Due to eating the side I only ate 1/2 of my philly steak, but, but, but, it was just right. I'm thinking I'll have leftover philly and egg for breakfast. Service was nice and pleasant. The whole place is a bit dark. Oh, the bar stools are stupidly low. I used a pillow for my car and still wanted a 'bumper seat'.

CHARLES BRUCE

Great food, very reasonable price

Brian Dougherty

Great place for chili, nachos, beer and good conversation

Patricia Latoraco

Amazing food and service

Calvin Sanders

Nice friendly neighborhood bar. Reasonable prices, good bar food, friendly people. Don't expect upscale furnishings, because this is a place to grab a beer or two, have some wings, and watch a football game.

Lyn DeBerardinis

If you want good food in an old fashioned bar, this is where to go. If you want ambience, go somewhere ekse

Martin Fahey

Best boneless wings anywhere! Try the teradakill flavor... Very good!

PHIL TORRES

Ken

Brilliant...best ribs in Connecticut

Tyler Kilgore

Great wings, great beer selection and very reasonable prices.

Michael Kontogouris

It's a dive bar. The bartenders are beermaids not much good for mixed drinks. I ordered a cubra Libre Diet Coke and got a spiced rum no lime sent it back then asked for a Gibson and the response was what's that? Could not tell you what the foods like didn't stick around to find out.

Jim Kler

Good place to get a cheeseburger and a beer. Might not be the best place for kids.

RGW ward

Try the brisket with spicy sauce

Sophia Clark

Good bar food

Erik Cleez

Love everything about this place! Great food cold drinks you just can't beat it!

Samuel Watson

My favorite local bar! Great friendly service, and cheap drinks. Usually a good mix of different sports on TV. There are 3 pool tables so there’s usually not much of a wait to get a game going. Place also has free popcorn and jukebox. Sit at the bar or a booth for some additional privacy

Scott Gladstone

Mike Cruger

Nice neighborhood bar

Antonio Suarez

Well thought I would try again still 10 minute for female bartender to serve person that was waiting for me. I walk in no smile from bartender. What do you want she says not hello not hi. Then had to ask for menue basically threw one not 2. So we sat at a table at least 10 more minutes still nothing. Ok no sweat outta here. Very piss poor. No wonder people call for take out.

Stephen P

Good food. Good atmosphere. Excellent, attentive bartender.

Dené Ackerman

Wish I still drank. This place was HOPPING. Got takeout and it was delic!

William Keller

You can tell immediately that a restaurant this loud with a roll of paper towels in the middle of the table will be a great place to relax and enjoy yourself. This is where the local people eat. You might wish that the barbecue would be a bit spicier or the taco salad a little less salty, but you can't deny that Smokey O'Grady's serves up tasty and filling meals that are just plain fun to eat with friends. And there's a great selection of craft beers and ales on tap. The prices are lower than you might expect.

Ernest Gortner

This place has the rudest bartenders I've ever seen. I got one beer and left because i was ignored the whole time.

Dominique Jones

Love there ribs....

Jon Hacker

Food is delicious every time. I've been here several times (and only been here for two weeks). Their boneless wings aren't the usual small, crappy, processed things you would get at other places. They are breast strips and HUGE! So don't order as many as you normally would!

John Obrien

Had a enjoyable time and found the help proficient.

Anthony Ciacciarelli

Great food and beer!

Anna Picardi

Fun place nice staff and great staff

D. DeCristoforo

Don't bother

Lee Swinton

Great boneless chicken and the flavors are off the hook

Brian Tully

Ok for a thursday night. Average for a CT. bar. But, an extra star cause people actually talk to one another here. Bartender was on his game too.

tom christensen

Decent food,great staff

Sean Dooley

Thirsty Thursday!!!!

Tyler Murphy

A new classic in my list of CT Dives. Cool music, everything from Aerosmith to the Pokemon Theme Song. Food is served quick, 21+ after 3pm, and a deck/outdoor bar for the summertime. HUGE bar. The tables tend to get neglected as an afterthought; however their food and portion size more than makes up for it. Ordering here is a bit of an art; 85% of their menu is delicious. 15% of it sounds delicious but is frozen food dropped in a deep fryer. Have been totally satisfied each time regardless. Fun regulars, bar staff is always busy, but will take some time to talk to you and introduce themselves despite that fact. Give them a look and they will be right over.

Ash Kempkes

It was ok! Good BBQ sauce, I got the boneless, and I'd reccommend getting through boned bc the boneless isn't as good quality ofc.

Rachael Perkins

Well I ordered a burger med rare came with nothing but meat and a bun and was well done and I had to ask them to bring me stuff to put on it SMH ....got to sit and listen to the bartenders rag on the customers they didn't find appealing and roll their eyes like teenagers....NO STARS but it made me click on at least one...

dannabats

Amazing food, cliff is the best waiter, scott is a close second , the lady bartenders sre also god, i mostly reccommend Brittany out of them. Food is amazing and drinks are plentiful

Lauren Belger

Went to Smokey O'Grady's tonight, so disappointed. Ordered extra crispy wings, a chicken wrap and fries to go. The fries were RAW when we got home, the wings were rubbery and it was so disappointing. We have ordered from Smokey's before, apperently, they stop caring about the food they serve when the bar is busy. I suggest not ordering from here, we will not go back for the food, just lousy. Used to be ok, now they just suck

Nicholas Risley

Great food and cheap drinks. Local bar feel

hayden berggren

I like going for the wings but that is about it. The service has typically been poor even when it was slower. All that a side it is wprth the beer and wings from time to time.

Brandon Johnson

Great Food!!! The sweet potato fries are amazing. You can't go wrong with the honey barbeque wings. I've only been twice, but it seems like each time it took a while to get the food. I could've just been hungry though.

Timothy LaDucer

Smokey's is a bar and they do the bar thing very well. Can't really remember some of my visits there but i can say they had a good beer selection and service.

Andrew Snyder

At 6pm on a Wednesday, the parking lot was full. Inside this sports bar the jukebox was loud and the people were louder. All of which was fine, because we had come for the BBQ. That's the reason for the 3 stars. The wings were very good, the ribs were cooked plain and then had sauce spread on them afterwards, and the burger was forgettable. The beers on tap were typical, except the price: my subduction IPA was $6. Nothing special here, but if you do go, stick with the wings and enjoy the good service and 3 pool tables.

dwhartmann .

Great food! Bad service. Had to get up from the booth and go to the bar to order food, get a box AND pay. Waitress stopped coming to our table.

Allan Gadbois

Great food, great selection of sodas. Great place to place pokemon go

Plenty of TV's, good beer selection, expensive mixed drinks for a dive bar
