Kanoon Smoked Meat and Cafe

Had an amazing meal here. The smoked brisket is insanely good. The mint lemonade is my new favorite drink. I’m not a huge dessert person but they’ve converted me. The Dubai crepe? Amazing. The waffles sticks? Gold. If you’re there on the weekend hopefully you catch the fire show performance🔥 and if you’re bringing kids, they have arcade games by the bathrooms. My son was in heaven!

The best steak house experience. This restaurant is amazing in every way. I have tried them a few times already and my experience has always been awesome 👌. Our server was DANA who made sure that she answered all our questions and recommended great selections. Hassan performed with fire which was a very unique and visually intense. I highly highly recommend this place. And yes all their meat dishes are fall off the bone tender.

The food was incredible. We stopped here on the way home from NYC, and this came up as a restaurant on the way. We weren't sure what to expect, but we were certainly not disappointed. My husband had the mint lemonade slishie. It was good, I did happen to prefer my blueberry mojito, which you couldn't taste the alcohol but I could feel it later. The hummus and meat pared with the complimentary salad was a great starter. My husband ordered one of the lamb dishes, which the bite he let me have was incredibly tender and well seasoned. I had the Brisket Burger, which was better than any I have had before. If we are in the area again we will definitely be back!

I brought my dad here for Veterans Day after a failed attempt at Texas Roadhouse and it being wayyyyy too full and it was amazing. It’s honestly more than the food but the atmosphere too it just feels so welcoming, it’s relaxing and there’s a lot of space on the inside. The presentation is gorgeous and the food felt clean I didn’t leave feeling like I made a giant mistake and didn’t feel satisfied like I do with other places. Would definitely recommend!!

Everything was so good. The meat was fall off the bone tender, even the chicken wings!🙌🏻 The only thing I felt was the short ribs were a little low on the seasoning but it was still worth it. Our server was great too <3

I went here during the soft opening, the rush was mild & the service was great. I will see how the service is when I go back on a busier day. The CT market definitely cares about quality service. The biggest perk here is that everything is halal. The quality of the food is definitely top notch, but it is very expensive. They should consider having deals on certain weeknights with a drink included or something so everyone can come by. I like the little quirks like the bathroom, lighting was great. I think this place was designed with a lot of thoughtfulness, and it is great to see a Muslim owned business on prime real estate in Waterbury.

I don't usually write reviews about restaurants, but this place exceeded my expectations. My first visit was for my friend birthday and my first impression was the welcoming service and timing were absolutely perfect. The food was so much amazing and if I could I would give this restaurant 10 stars if I could and the last thing I will say is thank you to the manager Hassan he was amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ❤️❤️❤️

I saw this restaurant while driving through Waterbury a few times. I looked it up and saw that it's Halal and wanted to give it a try. I'm so glad I did...OMGGG, this was good. The best wings I've had, the smoked rice, and the lamb were amazing. The Hummus and lamb, the steak everything was really good, no liquor, so make sure you get lit before you go, or after..lol..
