Please, go eat the turkey. The potato salad and mac&cheese weren't half bad either, and the beef ribs are a rarity on menus and worth a try -- especially when they fall off the bone like these do. But anyone who can make a turkey taste like that deserves pilgrimages to their door. Get thee to 145th.

It was my birthday and I was NYC for the occasion, I am originally from Oklahoma City so I decided to go to Oklahoma Smoke. The location was perfect; Just a few blocks away from the subway so finding it was easy. The smell when you walk in is delicious. My husband and I ordered the ribs while our friends got the chicken and smoked shrimp. The Chef was sweet enough to prepare a table for us and put some beautiful rose petals and a candle on one of their tables. Our sides came out first and were amazing. Next our meats came out so artfully arranged on the plate, it was gorgeous. But then the true test came, we ate. The meat on the chicken and the ribs was so tender that it fell off the bone. The Rub is mouth-watering and so is the BBQ sauce. You almost canÂ’t believe you have only spent about $10 a person. The place is really busy but you don'Â’t have to wait long. And ask to look at the chefÂ’s picture album. I couldnÂ’t ask for a better place to eat for my birthday.
