I stopped in with a friend last Tuesday and had such a great time... we went back the following day!
We were staying at a hotel across the street and Smith's ended up being our ""hang out"" while in the City. I'm from a small town in the Midwest and never expected to feel so welcomed in a neighborhood bar in NYC.
The food was excellent, the drinks plentiful and the service superior.
Special thanks to Derek the bartender for showing a couple of out-of-towners a really great time!
Pros: service, locals, food
