Artman Country Smokehouse

"10/01/2025 Our first time dining here and everything was fantastic! The inside dining area is clean with a cute country bbq atmosphere. The bathrooms are clean. There is a nice outdoor seating area that is dog friendly. Selena waited on us and she is the sweetest women! She definitely made us feel welcomed and like we were regulars. She offered great food suggestions like the Moink, that my husband said was pretty good and that he would get again. The brisket was tender, juicy, smokey and flavorful! The temperature of the meat could have been warmer but was still delicious! All the sides we ordered were piping hot and very good. The corn casserole could be eaten as a dessert because it is sweet. The green beans had kielbasa in them that gave great flavor. Beef brisket - delicious Very good sides - Potato salad Corn casserole Broccoli rice casserole Green beans"

"Summerfield Jewel Artman's located in Summerfield is a little jewel tucked away on Hwy 42 in Summerfield. They have limited table inside the building but they also have tables outside the building. I first tasted their food when our friends invited us over to their house. They served brisket and smoked chicken. It was delicious. So, we decided to go there not long after we tasted the food from our friends' house. Our first experience at Artman's was great that we decided to return and bring some friends with us. The restaurant opened at 11:00am and we arrived a couple of minutes before they opened to make sure we were able to get a table. Understandably, the restaurant gets full very quickly because their food was that good. When the doors opened, our server told us to sit where we wanted. The restaurant was very clean inside which was the first thing I noticed. Even the bathroom was clean. I came craving ribs and that was exactly what I ordered. I ordered a half a slab of St. Louis ribs. The server said, "let me check to make sure we have ribs." He asked the gentleman behind the counter, and was told that they only had 4 ribs left. They had not received their delivery yet. I was fine with that. For my side, I ordered coleslaw and French fries. Ordering the ribs was not a mistake. It was delicious and cooked perfectly. They have four different kinds of bbq sauce on the table. I didn't use any. I thought the ribs were perfect just the way they were. My spouse ordered burnt ends and he loved it. As I said, Artman's is a Summerfield jewel. Go and try it. You won't regret it. However, I do suggest getting there early so that you don't have a long wait."

"Artman's catered our wedding on 10/25 and it was by far the best food we could've ever received. Not only did we love it, but so did everyone else at the wedding. Everything was cooked to perfection and the little potato salad for my hubby only was a nice surprise since we hadn't ever tried it before then. Valerie was amazing and we appreciated her being the one to coordinate everything for us and have the best wedding day ever!"

"Came here recently with some friends for dinner. From the outside, this looks like a smaller restaurant. But when we went inside there was plenty of room with at least 15 tables for guests to sit and eat. This was my first time here so we ordered a sampler platter that had three kinds of meats and four sides. I also ordered a few appetizers to get so that I could taste as many different things as possible. The meats had a good flavor and were tender and delicious. The sides were exceptionally delicious. The portion size was very generous, and we had enough to take home for another meal later. I live over half an hour away, but our experience was so good. I will be coming back again."

"I've been wanting to stop in for a year as I consult with a farm in that area. I have always been on a time crunch, but not today. Plenty of parking that was super clean. Door was hard to open and I did not expect a sit down type restaurant where the waitress very cheerfully greeted me as she served people sitting at a table. I could feel myself relax in this very homey environment. I was doing take out and they had a menu right at the register. They explained that everything on the menu was made on the premises. They take credit and the tap/insert was handy to pay with a screen on the register to add a tip and choose type of receipt. Seating to wait was comfy, but internet signal was limited (no biggie). The wait was short and I was heading back out the door with the waitress once again calling out a goodbye. I made it to my destination. I had a half slab of ribs, coleslaw, potato salad with a side of fried pickles. It also came with a side of corn bread or toast (I chose corn bread). To say the portions are generous is an understatement. There was a sweet molasses sauce and a not hot mustard based sauce for the ribs, and ranch for the pickles. The pickles, while not still super crispy (it took more than an hour to get home), were delicious! The coleslaw and potato salad were good. The ribs were out of this world, copious meat falling off the bone, to die for. Both sauces were perfect to dip pieces of meat into. Yes, I double dipped! There was plenty for 2 to share or for a full meal the next day, including the pickles (there a HUGE basket of'em)! I will be back for sure! Oh, and for sit down dining, they serve some decent beers too. Came back and STILL AWESOME!"

"When you think of classic country Road eatery and smokehouse, this is it. Small restaurant and very inviting. Acknowledge your presence. The brisket has a perfect smoke ring, properly develop bark. A very juicy and tender brisket. Some of the best brisket I have had and definitely worth the trip. The brisket burnt ends are a mix bag. The burn ends are deep-fried to give it some crispness and I think mine were just a little over fried, without the sauce you can really taste the frying oil. When you add the sauce that it comes with, the oils taste is not as pronounced and better balanced. I will definitely come back for the brisket."

"Selena, thank you. Service was excellent... and you were so kind.... food... delish.... burnt ends were amazing... liver cooked to perfection...pepper pig thumbs up... collard greens were really good....every morsel was worth it... check them out!"
