Smokin' Jalapeno - Florence

"Rookies....My husband and I tried it for the first time as a late Valentine's Day date. Definitely named appropriate!! If you don't like spicy, don't go. Pretty much everything has a variety of "kick". Maggie, our waitress, was awesome! She helped us with explaining something on the menu. She kept a check on us and made sure our drinks were filled. She was more than one person.... running her legs off. We really liked the food! Fresh, taste, and amount of food were all really good. The down side was it took a while to get our food. So if you don't have time to wait, I'd recommend ordering ahead. We couldn't quite figure out if it was "fast food" or restaurant style. They had a few TVs and a bar counter(which we don't do). Family friendly. Good location for us, Cloverdale Rd. Most of the staff was very welcoming."

"Came here to get the same amazing tacos I get in Muscle Shoals, only they were ten times better here in Florence! Always amazing service and food but you pay for it!! Wish they were just a bit cheaper or had more meal deals, I’d eat here multiple times a week!"

"Worst food ever! Went to Cloverdale Road restaurant on New Years Eve at 9:15pm to dine inside. Server told us some beer was unavailable. We ordered entrees- chicken bowl, chicken tenders and vegetables nachos. Appetizers we ordered nachos asked for spicy sauce but not available. Cheese dip was watery and they gave a dip that was like old oil to dip chips! The bowl supposed to be made with chicken but no chicken. Told server she said on she must have forgot. The food didn’t look appetizing. Rice must have been cooked in the morning tasted stale and all stuck together. Chicken tenders were overcooked very brown in color and tasted burnt and very oily. Nachos was poor again with stale rice. What we ordered such as fresh and grilled jalapeños on bowl and nachos didn’t add had to ask for some. It seemed like the staff didn’t care about the customers and quality of food. Told server that the food is terrible and poor quality. She didn’t care and not even apologize. There was only four of us in the restaurant then later a couple came in. Each dish we ate only eat quarter of food. Wasted 75% of food due to lack of quality, taste and requested items. We wasted money and my friend even tipped them. Will never go to this restaurant. Need to listen to customers and take care of them."

"I decided that I’d give the new smoking jalapeño a go the other day. As I walked in I was greeted by staff immediately. As I sat down and was given a menu with what I noticed was several new items compared to the other two. The build your own burrito bowl was great! Lots of good options for toppings. I highly recommend check them out!"
