Reviews
"The staff is incredibly friendly, the price was decent. My partner got the rib dinner and I got a side salad. Sensory: The dining room is clean and free from obtrusive smells. There is music but not loud. Overhead florescent lighting. Vegetarian notes: I was very disappointed in the lack of vegetarian options. I don't expect many vegetarian options when I go to a bbq place, but they don't even have a grilled cheese sandwich or anything. :("
"Good experience. Everybody here is so polite. Food was hot, fresh and great taste. I think is a little pricey in my opinion."
"Initial takeout and it was adequate for this price point. The chopped barbeque beef and chicken were very tasty. The pulled pork was missing a little pop of flavor; the texture was good, though. The ribs were pretty good(very smoky). The sides ranked in order: baked beans(I am not a fan, but their iteration was delicious), potato salad was refreshing and not too much mayo, parsley potatoes' texture was very good-need a little more flavor, green beans were ok. They didn't include the corn on the cob or macaroni salad, which is unfortunate. The corn muffin's texture(very dry) and taste were off. Overall, filling food for a great price."
"Staff was extremely polite and joyful unfortunately that’s it for the highlights of this place the brisket is bathed in sauce and the meat tastes as if it was caned food. The potato where so over cooked that they where almost mush same goes for the corn. We spent almost $100 In food and we had to trash 80% of the food and had to go get out food somewhere else."
"Will return -:) A down to earth bbq restaurant, with plastics. The ribs are delicious! My two sides, beans and greens are too soft and saggy, the he potato and Cole Slaw are better. The hot sauce is wonderful. I ordered a rib and chicken to go - I know you can’t take me anywhere. They sell their super hot sauce - Crazy Hot for $25 for three bottles. The lady gave me a little taster, which is but I like their regular hot sauce in the red plastic bottle - wish they sell this hot sauce instead. They’ve beers too."
