★★★★★ 5.0 Olivia Hernandez Panameno · Jan 2026

Food and service was great the brisket was delicious meat flavorful, moist and tender not dry at all, my husband had the pull pork sandwich the coleslaw was amazing according to my husband

This is the worst BBQ I've ever seen in my life. Chicken was extremely dry and had that texture which you get if let cooked chicken sit in a fridge for several days. You know this dry brownish meat. Brisket, for some reason, was pulled like a pork. But besides that it didn't have any taste. It felt like it didn't have enough rub and salt. I couldn't even imagine that classic BBQ food can be so bad.

Waited for a third visit to ensure it was legit before leaving the review. I dig it. Place is low key awesome. Blue collar working American business. Killer Tri Tip sammich. Fries and pulled pork are awesome. I tried five sauces and put the texas kick and Alabama White at the top. Don't hesitate to grab some of this BBQ.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Tori Kurtovich · Oct 2025

Ordered the brisket sandwich with 2 sides, beans and Mac and cheese and a side of bbq. Didn't get the side of bbq sauce, sandwich was bland, lacked flavor. Crispy onions on it were not crispy and hard to get down. The beans were awful. Tasted like pepper with a hint of beans. Mac and cheese was flavorless and the noodles were complete mush. Very disappointed. Spent $30 just to throw it all away.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Tahtahme's Diary · Nov 2025

Kay was amazing. So are all the sauces, we got the Bold and California Gold as well as some Alabama white sauce and loved it all. The food was okay, the meats especially the ribs were dry even with sauce added, the sides I wouldn't recommend especially the potato salad and cole slaw. I enjoyed the Mac and cheese, my husband didn't. Not sure how often they make the food fresh, but they might need to do so more often. Will be back for the sauces, but nothing else.
