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.

    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.

    Loved the ambiance here. Great place to enjoy a nice day on the patio. Live music was a nice bonus, and the food and drinks were enjoyable.

    Way too loud under the covered patio when a band is playing. Be prepared for 30 min wait at valet.

    Cam, the bartender, is the best. The food is food. Don't ask for any extra like tortillas. You will see it on your bill, and a certain drink is listed on the menu that is an additional 4.00. Overall it's a nice place to visit.

    Smoky Rose is one of our go-to restaurants. We enjoy the ambience and the food is always solid. We had prompt, friendly service and an enjoyable dinner on a dreary night.

    Nice local spot with great areas for families to gather. We were looking for something a little more intimate for a date night and our table was very small and pushed up against a post(we opted for outdoor dining)so little legroom for us tall people. Also table next to us was less than 2 feet away so for to listen to their conversation all night. Food and service very good and prompt for a Saturday night. Next visit would be with a group of friends or our family.
