★★★★★ 5.0 Justin Timmons · Dec 2025

This is our 3rd time here. We are visiting from Jacksonville FL and have been talking about this BBQ nonstop since the last time we were here and comparing to our local restaurants. Nothing compares and as usual they didn’t disappoint! Ribs were flavorful, fall off the bone. Turkey was tasty, mashed potatoes delicious, and the collard greens were also so good! My son got the cheddar jalapeno sausage and the brisket, ate it all up! Wish we lived here lol

★★★★★ 5.0 Eric Albor · Jan 2026

Tried this place for the first time, greeted kindly by the tall gentleman behind the counter and gave us a quick run down of how to order + recommendations. I cannot articulate how delicious the food was--by God. The food here feels like the forbidden fruit of knowledge--I cannot unknow that this place exists now and will continue to think of its food when I am not near. Perhaps a bit dramatic on my part but the food is no laughing matter. Once we left to parking lot and were preparing to drive away we saw the sign and said "yup, makes sense". I may need to relocate to Madison.

Delicious food! Staff were very pleasant and quick service. We loved seeing the live cam of the smoker grills while eating. 10/10 would highly recommend

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Monica · Mar 2026

I’ve tried their food twice now at wedding shows. I am not understanding the hype. We both LOVE brisket and food of the ‘BBQ’ variety and the brisket seems to have a decent flavor. The first time it was tough and dry. The second time it was just dry. So the second time I asked if I could use the BBQ sauce they had sitting there and I doused it in that. The sauce was good. I also tried a Mac n cheese once, that was not good. We really want to like this place which is why we tried it again when we had the chance for a sample. We are wondering if the restaurant is perhaps better?

The service was great. The BBQ is decent. Pictured is the white cheddar Mac and cheese. Brisket chili. Ribs, ribtips, and brisket.
