Favorable portions of delicious BBQ. Gluten-free and other allergen friendly restaurant, including online option to sort by allergen-free foods. Shotgun-style dining area, with plenty of space for a larger group. Highly recommend!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Alasa Hughes · Sep 2025

The wait staff was very friendly and did an awesome job. Food was really good. We purchased a pulled pork salad and fries that I asked to be crispy and were awesome! Then he got a tri-tip sandwich with BBQ sauce and mac&cheese on the sandwich. He LOVED it. He also got a side of the baked beans that were ok. The milkshake was ok, it was too thin for my taste. I also got the gluten free & vegan dessert, a lemon bar. Which was really good and not too sweet. There were many vegan or gluten free options. Their vegan meat they use is smoked tempeh, and they have a house made veggie burger. The food took around 25 minutes or so to get to our table with very few other customers. So may take longer during regular busy hours. All-in-all, check it out!

Solid BBQ. I've never been to a place that has vegan BBQ. It's a cool idea although I admittedly only tried the vegan chili (which was actually my favorite part of the meal - SO GOOD). I got the broodwich, essentially a French toast with syrup sandwich that is filled with Mac and cheese and pulled pork. It was a decent amount of food. Friendly service. I'd go there again👍

Was looking forward to a good trip tip sandwich and was slightly disappointed it was chopped beef instead of strips. The bbq sauce and the bread were good. I wish I would have tried the mac and cheese because the fries surprisingly did not have good flavor. The service is amazing and I'd go back because of the friendly service.

Everything was perfect and Nina was the best waitress too! She verified the following: they have a dedicated fryer, the Meriwether line has always been gluten-free, the gluten-free bun is vegan and was a great option (it didn't fall apart and wasn't really dry), she even made sure the Huckleberry lemonade was a safe option. Unfortunately I didn't leave room for dessert, but I left full and very satisfied. The 1/2 Tritip 1/2 pulled pork was juicy and flavorful. It was definitely a great find!
