Eyal Shahar A perfect place for a romantic date. Awesome food (we went for 4 starters And 2 deserts), easy listening music, quiet, and a friendly waiter, Maurizio. My favorites: scallops with caviar, roasted beets, goat cheese with dried apricot.

Richard Liang Food quality is pretty good with decent price. The vibe and service of the staff contributes to a good overall experience. Like it!

Jaqueline Avina Best food and drinks! Nice for a relaxing time with family and friends. There is a good variety of food options! Tried the fish tacos, shrimp tacos, ceviche, and calamari. It was very flavorful and fresh. The staff goes above and beyond!! They are super friendly and very attentive of their customers. Highly reccomend!!

Mac Affect Super cute shop, great mix of music while I was there waiting for my order which took about 6-7 minutes for 2 teas and a crepe. The crepe was delicious, with a large portion size, and the have a lot of options for toppings and fillings. I got the classic milk tea with brown sugar boba, and it was exactly what I was hoping for. They also have popping boba and tons of other drink options as well.

Michelle Doran Excellent service and delicious food. I had the octopus, lamb, and monkey bread for dessert. Octopus seasoning was perfect with flavors that lingered and built a slow heat. Lamb melted in your mouth and the pairings really complemented the flavors. Monkey bread was beautiful ( table side flambe preparation) and just as delicious. My husband got the fried rice which we wouldnt order again but everything else was so good that it more than compensated and I couldnt reduce my rating for it. Server was knowledgeable and attentive without hovering. Lovely restaurant. Great meal. Wish I knew about it sooner. Well definitely return.

Jakeline Del rio After my two sons finished their Jiu-Jitsu tournament, we chose Smoke & Meat BBQ in Stockton, CA to celebrate, and it turned out to be the perfect place. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and full of authentic BBQ charm, setting the tone for an unforgettable meal. The Texas Trio was the highlight of our visit and absolutely blew us away. It came with three sausages of our choice, a full rack of ribs, brisket, and three sides, a huge portion packed with incredible flavor. The ribs were tender with that ideal smoky pull, the brisket was juicy with a beautiful smoke ring and perfect seasoning, and the sausages were hearty and delicious. The sides were just as impressive! the mac and cheese instantly became the kids’ favorite, and the pickled onions and pickles added the perfect bright, tangy contrast that balanced the richness of the meats. Every bite showed clear attention to quality and authentic slow-smoked flavor. The service was one of the most memorable parts of our visit. The staff treated us with genuine kindness and made us feel like family from the moment we walked in. They interacted with the kids, made conversation, and created a relaxed, home-like environment that made our celebration even more special. The atmosphere was cozy, friendly, and full of positive energy, exactly the type of place where you feel comfortable bringing your family after a long day. Smoke & Meat BBQ delivered exceptional food, generous portions, and truly outstanding hospitality. The Texas Trio was incredible, the sides were delicious, and the staff made the entire experience feel personal and welcoming. It was the perfect way to celebrate my kids’ tournament, and we will definitely be going back. This place is a true Stockton gem and absolutely deserves a five-star rating.
