Smokey Bones is bringing the heat (and the sweets) this season with some new additions to its Turf & Surf menu and the launch of its new Adventures in Candy Land cocktails.
From February 7 to May 1, 2023, guests can sample a number of spicy new Turf & Surf options, including Cajun Brown Sugar Fish, Nashville Hot Pork Tenderloin Sandwich, BBQ Rib Tips, and Shrimp & Grits.
At the same time, guests can pair their meal with one of the tempting new Adventures in Candy Land cocktails. Each of these creative cocktails is served with real candy that's sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. Standouts from the new cocktail menu include the Shark Bait fishbowl cocktail that's served with gummy sharks, and the Twizzle Fo-Shizzle cocktail that's garnished with red Twizzlers.
