Celebrate my wife's birthday here the other day. Food was delicious. We started with the plantain croquettes. The mole sauce was good, but I prefer traditional croquettes. I had the NY strip streak and my wife had the 8 oz tenderloin. Both were cooked to our liking and tasted great. Service was very good too. The dining room was smaller than I expected and it was a little loud too.

Smoke and Iron has a fantastic atmosphere and the service is great. The smoked old fashioned is delicious (you can choose which wood smoke for your drink). Every app was delicious. Each entree was amazing. If you are in West Fargo, ND you need to try Smoke and Iron.

First time patron. Greeted at the door as the first customers of the day. They open at 3pm and we were waiting at the door. Seated promptly on the patio as we requested. We checked the patio out first as it was a little breezy but the patio was sheltered and very comfortable. Server explained that this was about the fourth week since opening. She also was quite knowledgeable about the food choices and gave her opinion when we asked. It appears that she has at least tasted most of the menu items. The four of us chose from the menu and none of us were disappointed. She had described the chili mango chicken on a bed of mashed potatoes with asparagus spears as having a bit of a bite with a smooth mango sweetness. Describes it beautifully. One of my table mates ordered the flatbread and loved it. Only a small suggestion would be to slice it a bit or provide a sharp knife as it was a little difficult to slice with the butter knife. The crosaint chicken salad was perfection. The salad as you can see from the picture was presented well as were all the entrees. So nice to have a newer upscale but also relaxing restaurant in the west fargo "lights" area.
