Opened Aug 4, 1987 with the help of their friends from Galveston, TX. They brought Nana Kelly's receipe, which still stand today. Most of the staff have been here for years.
Gets favorable reviews on the internet.
The Village Smokehouse in Brookline Village has the look of an old time saloon that's been in business for years, and it has. Opened in 1987, it outdates just about every BBQ restaurant in the Boston area. You enter into a bar area that has 2 TVs, lots of mirrors, and stools against the bar and opposing wall. The dining area has mostly long communal tables that have two problems: they're very tightly packed and you may be seated with strangers. If you get seated on the inside, you have trouble getting out. If you get seated on the outside, servers reach across your face with plates for those sitting inside. On the plus side, at least visually, you get to see the staff grill meats on an open flame in a centrally located grilling station.
