Smokehouse dining with a California twist.

Located at the entrance to Alila Ventana Big Sur and Highway one, The Big Sur Smokehouse is a historic property dating back to 1867 that now serves as a classic barbecue restaurant serving house-smoked meats and sauces using farm-fresh ingredients. Watch the world go by from the patio, or join us inside for a comfortable dining experience while driving along the coast. Local drinks on tap live music served up alongside a deep sense of community spirit—here, it’s about more than just legendary barbecue, it’s a gathering place for all.
