D'Arcy's Smokehouse Restaurant - St. Albert, Alberta

Delicious!

I've had meat from Darcy's Meat Market in St. Albert, so I was excited to try the food at their restaurant, and it did not disappoint!

I had the pulled pork sandwich with mac & cheese along with their fries, and everything was delicious.

Their food is homemade, and you can definitely tell the difference in quality and the prices are hard to beat at about $10-$20 per person.

The staff was also extremely kind and accommodating!

They are open for lunch and dinner Monday - Saturday.

I had a potluck lunch organized and wanted to provide brisket as the main dish for the group. After a few rounds of discussions, we decided to try D’arcy’s.

I ordered the brisket (~9 lbs) on a Monday and expected to pick it up Friday to deliver to our potluck lunch. I called on Wednesday night just to make sure they received the order and to confirm the location for pick up. Really nice lady attended to the phone and told me everything was set (Avery).

On Friday I went early to pick it up and waited until they opened. That container they put it in was smoking hot.

Delivered it just barely on time and everyone had nothing but great things to say.

I’d only have 2 recommendations to make this experience even better. The order summary on-line doesn’t confirm the pick up time, would be nice if it had that. The emailed receipt had it but the sent text didn’t and the website didn’t. I didn’t opt for the emailed receipt so I didn’t know that until I talked to someone who had ordered from them before. Would also be nice if you could pick up 15 minutes earlier than 11:00 am. Timing was tight and I may have received a speeding ticket to get to my destination. Other than that, it was pretty much picture perfect execution.

The brisket was soft and tender with a nice smoke ring and charred exterior. There were no chewy pieces and everyone left nothing on thier plates. Very satisfying.

I’d really recommend this outfit and I’m sure a lot of people agree. Great food and excellent service.

We had an excellent meal at D'Arcy's, highly recommended! It was the Friday "Date Night" special: each of us got two meats, two sides, a cocktail, and an ice cream cone for $35. Everything was delicious, and the service was friendly & fast. You should go!

Got a take out Through Uber Eats... When we got the food it looked very cheap, small portions and would have to guess 2 items were from Store Bought... I got the jalapeno sausage well half of it cuz it might be to expensive 🫰 to get the hole sausage witch tasted store bought and the refried beans where I ended the conclusion it's from Heinz and unfortunately drowned in Sauce... See pics for details... Pls make sure u have PepCid on the ready... Also on the positive note there Sweet Cornbread was Fantastic have to give credit due... Well let's get to the fun stuff.... Pulled Pork absolute garbage and there Brisket was dryer then a bone RIP heat lamp... As well as we had trow out there coleslaw it was dry... had onion's for some reason and seemed a sale on vinegar... It tasted horrible not recommended... Mac and cheese that was a story in itself dry and gross...
Tasted that the heat lamp was not favorable in its place... The price for what u get it's garbage... For about 100 dollars not worth it... Here are the pictures make ur own decisions wisely...

Meal for 4, I made a reservation. lol. Personally I tried the 3 meat combo. Wife had a 1 meat combo. Parents also had a 1 meat combo. They had the brisket, I tried the chicken, ribs and brisket.
Most of it was served cold. The sides were fries, corn bread, macaroni and coleslaw. Mac and coleslaw were good. Brisket was greasy. Ribs were dry, chicken was dry fries were cold. Atmosphere was cheap and dirty. (I’m not going to sugar coat this.) Tip prompts here are 15%/20%25%.? Absurd. No water offered. No jugs etc.
This is not a sit down place (my mistake). I was taken back when I arrived as the parents were already inside. I immediately apologized to the wife but hey, maybe the food will make up for it? It did not.
Hopefully you don’t mind creaky picnic tables, a pop cooler and a pay at the till fast food counter?
The food was served on wax butchers paper and a metal tray. The staff were friendly when available but unfortunately not attentive enough. The sign is a banner. I thought it just opened but was told by the attendant it’s been open 2 years.
Sorry, would not recommend .
This is not the quality I would expect from Darcy’s meat market.

I recently decided to sign up for Uber Eats and placed an order with D’Arcy’s Smokehouse. Well I have to say….. disappointment was my only word used! I realize that ordering food for takeout and getting it delivered via a service, you could have mixed reactions but this gave me a feeling of disappointment that makes me not want to go there to eat in. I am glad I took pictures just to show the food once we opened the packages. The food took much longer to get here… the Uber driver somehow ended up driving completely past our place to go to another subdivision before making it here. The food looked like it had been dropped when we opened it up. The presentation was aweful and the amount of fat and grease that the brisket had that it turned my stomach! The smoked chicken looked like it was mangled and thrown into the packaging! The cheese mixture on the fries was not good and the Mac n Cheese was not worth ordering! I also ordered extra fries. Ugg!! Imagine this order was around $28
Never again! Sorry for being so negative but it was not a good experience!!

I ordered brisket and potato salad for a small group of 9 family members (immediate and extended). Potato salad did not disappoint, very good, but the brisket was next level amazing. So moist and beautifully smoked flavor. Almost everyone had seconds, and some even did round three. One of those " I wish I could have eaten just a little bit more " as I was going to bed kind of nights..

We ordered Brisket for our son’s wedding and I just wanted to say how delicious and wonderful it was!! The meat was so tender and cooked to perfection! It was a pleasure to order from Darcy’s Meats. They are very helpful, friendly and efficient. Will certainly be back!! Thank you
