Old Canal Smokehouse

Has anyone ever ate here? Hows the service, food , servers?

It's terrible, don't waste your money. The owners are super rude even to customers, and the food is sub-par.

REALLY BRANDI????? Sounds like you are hating for a personal reason,But BTW the food is AMAZING.Very nice inside restaraunt and patio.SUB-PAR is a down grading understatement.Their food is Mouth Watering!!

The food there is amazing. I've eaten all over the country, and know how it rates.

The food is awesome! And they are super nice to customers and go out of their way to take care of you. Highly recommend eating there.

If you haven't eaten there, YOU SHOULD.You are missing out on great home cooked, slowly smoked foods.Don't settle for this other crap in Chillicothe.

The food is great, and most of the servers are pretty good at their job, but there are a couple women that work there that should consider another career because being a server is something they are not very good at. Texting and phones ringing while my order is being taken is very rude. I wish i knew her name because i'd steer you clear of her.

Beats the heck out of the slop you get next door at the Dock.

Haha I'm entitled to my own opinion... pretty sure they asked for those, right? And no personal reasons, I've witnessed them be rude to employees and even customers.

Ive seen that sicko around town. All he ever talks about is the easy rider rodeo. If you talk to him you'll know right away he isnt right in the head. Sad really. Poor guy needs help. Probably a good worker but i agree he shouldnt be anywhere there are kids. Especially if hes a registered sex offender.

Really? Seriously?? Come on be real..

No worries now. It was severly damaged in a fire this morning!

The fire situation is weird in my opinion. a few weeks ago the house next door to it caught on fire. They stopped it before it spread to the smoke house. This morning the house next door catches on fire again, even tho no one was living there because of the last fire, and this time it does severe to the smoke house. Sound suspicious to anyone else?

They'd cut the power to the house next door after the previous fire. I agree, sort of makes you wonder how it started.

@ Concrete Angel pretty ignorant of u to say NO WORRIES NOW.Sounds like you enjoy bad news.It's really sad for all employed that really care about the place and their lively hood (making money) to support their families.

I agree!

I thought the food wasn't very good when I ate there, especially for what they charge you.

Food was decent, not spectacular. IMO, everything sort of tasted the same, like smoke. Nonetheless, it was a popular establishment and attractive property. Both of which, Chillicothe seems to be lacking in these days. I wish the owners luck in restoring the building. We certainly don't need another burnt out eyesore.

Looks like arson...
