Cafe Telegraph Smoke Shack

We ordered 3lb. Fred Flintstone Pork Steak with a side of baked beans and baked potato; it was so good and tasty. The Nerinx Hall Beer Battered Mushrooms the best that I have so far.🥰🤓🙌

Food was great & service was even better. The cook came out to check on all the meals and thank our group for stopping. 11/10 recommend!! Such a cute place.

We went to the restaurant after visiting our mother's grave at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery. The food, as always, was tasty and plentiful.

Excellent, friendly staff, clean, eating establishment with pine booths, reminiscent of days gone by. Had breaded mushrooms are the ABSOLUTE best I've ever eaten!! Hubby's sirloin sandwich was huge, had tender sliced beef, cooked to perfection! BBQ sandwich was with a dry rub and sweet smoky sauce on the side. I personally don't prefer
dry rubs and the
sauce tasted a little too vinegar-y for my taste. Service was the ultimate!! Thank you, Kim, for such great service to every detail. And they serve Pepsi products, a plus
for us!! Hubby enjoyed the sweet smoky sauce and BBQ very well!! Adefinite hidden gem!!

Went for dinner with the family tonight on a Friday. They said 45 minutes but were seated within 10. Fried mushrooms for the appetizer were underwhelming as I felt the breading was too thick and chewy.
For the main course we got the Lemay wings, the ribs, and a couple burgers. The wings were absolutely delicious with the honey mustard buffalo sauce, the ribs were competition level fall off the bone amazing, and the burgers were better than most, cooked perfectly very flavorful and BIG.
Service was fast and friendly and the restaurant has a great ambiance. Will definitely be back.

First time here and I was not sad we came here. Had the 3lb pork steak, and now I have leftovers, lol. It was so good, the dry rub they use doubles as a really good french fry seasoning too. Had the nachos for an appetizer and shared it with my wife. Very good choice for a starter, but maybe not a great idea if you intend to eat a 3lb pork steak, lol. We will be back!

1st time here. Food was great. Our server was awsome. The best thing we loved is that the tables are spaced so you can move freely and not have to squeeze between. I know not the normal thing people comment on. But we noticed, and it was wonderful! Will 100% go back!

Everything we had was absolute perfection! This was our first time here and we'll be back for sure! We got the nachos as an appetizer, Virgina Bleu burger, and the Fred Flintstone pork steak!

My pulled pork was amazing! My friends ribs had to be reheated but still amazing! 10/10 highly recommend for BBQ (def ate half the sandwich before remembering a picture lol)

I never get bbq from any restaurant because I like home bbq. I wanted to try the dry rub 3 lb pork steak called the Fred Flintstone and it was utterly frinking fantastic! Best bbq that I have had in a long time. I will be back again soon.

The food was delicious, both times I've been here. I had the blu burger and the pulled pork sandwich. My husband had the 3 lb porksteak, and my mother had the chicken modiga. All was amazing. Service was also great both times. Will be back 🙂

Ordered the chicken philly and my boyfriend ordered the ribs. Food was delicious, came out quick. The ribs looked and tasted fantastic. Drinks were refilledMultiple times about us needing to ask which is always greatly appreciated. The atmosphere had a feel of rustic cabin paired with more modern touches - lots of TV screens. Choose to sit in the updated the “outside” area which was pleasant even in warm westher. Will definitely come back!

I ordered the brisket, took the recommendation from my server to try the fries and potato salad for my sides. The fries have a slightly sweet, salty seasoning on them, crinkle cut and crunchy, they're great. The potato salad is one of my favorites! It has a Cajun blend of spices and they use the quality real dill pickles - it's a must try. The brisket was not mind blowing but I'd order it again, the bbq sauce has too much of a prevalent ketchup base for my personal taste, smokey and spicy is more my jam. The atmosphere is upbeat and lively, it has an indoor outdoor patio for dining that's pretty epic. My service was awesome, and so was Stan.

We love coming here. They have so many food options and are reasonably priced if you want a night out to drink and eat with friends without breaking the bank.

This is a fantastic place, food is great service is very good no complaints whatsoever.

Pretty neat place! Versatile from a family restaurant side to a bar side. Bring your family or a date! Very, very nice place, great food, and great service!

Great food, great atmosphere at a good price. Our waitress, Emily, made our visit even more enjoyable with her table side manner and her wit! Will be back with my whole family!

Always get the chicken tenders!! They’ve changed a few times over the years but they have always been phenomenal. This time they were super bready, but I love it. Still taste amazing cold the next morning!!

Excellent food, service, and ambience! We’ve been 3 times in the last month cause the food is wonderful! The gringo cheese is my favorite. Also the manager makes rounds thru the dining area checking on people.

Arrived to a very busy atmosphere and we were quickly greated and seated. Our server was very friendly and attentive with our order for drinks and appetizers. The fried mushrooms and pork tenderloin bites(sauce is the best) were out of this world good. Two of us had the ribs and one had the brisket and the meat was absolutely amazing, the sides of beans, cheesy potatoes, coleslaw, and sweet potatoe fries were spectacular as we all shared. The server kept up with our drinks and we all left full. Best bbq we have had in quite sometime, cannot wait to get back. As a firefighter first responder I thoroughly honored their respect they showed within their menu.
