Frasher's Smokehouse

Wow, what a place?!! I went last month and got to meet Mr Frasher who is such a cool, nice, & awesome guy and glad he brought BBQ to Phx. The food was absolutely delicious and so glad I stopped by. The sweet tea is literally the BEST in the valley. Service was great bc the folks are just so nice and they're there for YOU and really put you 1st making sure you got everything you need. The environment was cool and I really liked the decor in there. This wasn't just a meal, it was an experience and can't wait to go back. You GOTTA go there.

We attended the #Chandler55 candlelit vigil that was held at this restaurant and it was delightful! The service and food was top notch! They took such good care of our whole group which allowed us to really enjoy the evening memorializing the dogs. Absolutely recommend eating here and having an event in their spacious outdoor patio.

One of the best restaurants and caterers! The employees are so welcoming and friendly. We used their catering for our wedding in 2021 and they were AMAZING!! So organized and came with smiles. Two years later we called to celebrate our anniversary and they offered us a “reserved” table and set it up with flowers. They never fail to make your experience with them the BEST! The best part the food is DELICIOUS!

"Are you kidding me?" Those were my first words after the food was delivered - and they were not words of happy surprise, but of huge disappointment. If you want a short review, here you are: go someplace else. Otherwise, read on for why they received such a low rating. My sister was craving BBQ so we stopped in to Frasher's last night, around 4:30. They have a large outdoor patio, live music until 5:00. There was another portion of the patio on the front, well shaded, where the music was not as loud. It is a large place w/ ample parking. While placing our order the first thing I noticed was there were no ingredients / toppings listed for their sandwiches. Stupidly, I didn't ask; I assumed it would be the typical fixins. B-I-G mistake. We initially sat inside but it was such a beautiful day we moved to the front patio. No one was there; they were all on the side enjoying the music. The sweet tea was good. Unfortunately, that is where the "good" stopped. Our plastic plates & plastic silverware were delivered to our table, with three small plastic containers of different BBQ sauces. If you look at the pictures, you'll see my sandwich (and I use that term loosely!!) was nothing but slabs of turkey tossed between a sesame bun. BORING! and dry. The baked beans were bad, lukewarm with what I guess were onions & peppers. Lukewarm. Same with the fried ravioli appetizer. I would bet money they came out of a box, into the microwave, onto the plate. My sister got the tri trip & pulled pork platter w/ garlic mashed potatoes and mac 'n cheese. Potatoes were barely warm, everything else was stone cold. She took two bites. At this point her words were "I left too large of a tip". I didn't even touch my sandwich. She went back in to see if we had missed a buffet where sandwich fixins would have been. We didn't. When the server came back out, I asked him where the rest of the sandwich was, lettuce, tomatoes, mayonnaise, etc. He said there weren't any. I had to ask for it. By the time he brought out a plate of lettuce, two tomato slices, and a few pickles, we were both so annoyed we packed up the food and walked out - and walked across the driveway to eat at d'Lite - Healthy On The Go (which was way better). Why did we take the food? Because we were raised not to waste it - and knew by taking it home, we could add flavor and other items to it to make it worth while - and we could HEAT IT UP. I read the Yelp! reviews for Frasher's, many were 4 & 5 stars, quite a few from elite members. I can only surmise that those reviews are from family members, or that Frasher's new they were coming because I honestly have no idea how anyone could give Frasher's such high ratings for cold, naked, bland food.
