Customer Reviews
The beef brisket was good. It had both a juicy part (which I liked) and a low free part which resembled boiled meat which I didn’t like as much but it went well with the sauce. Pork ribs were pretty solid. They didn’t fall off the bone and were not ultra tender but still were above average. Slaw as a side was nice, the mac and cheese was really great, among the best I’ve tried. The potato chips were fine but nothing extraordinary. They also served corn muffins with the meat and they were pretty nice too. Overall it’s a borderline 5 star experience given fairly high prices - not top notch but good enough and the portions are definitely very generous. Maybe a smarter way to order is just ordering one tray for 2 people and adding some more meat instead of ordering two trays. I wouldn’t go the
Worth the wait. Small place, big flavor. Got a table for 9, cocktails were tasty, “Golden Hour” recommended. Kids menu offered bbq and non, accommodating all the eaters in our party. After a day outside it was the exact meal we were hoping for to fill up. FYI Don’t park near the smoker, plenty of room in the lot.
Ridiculously phenomenal food and honestly it’s all so savoury. We ate slowly to enjoy all the bursting flavors. From the pulled pork tacos, to the smash burger, to the melt in your mouth only need a fork brisket this place is ten stars. They also have an excellent selection of cocktails and beer. The staff is working their tails off in a small space and doing it with a smile. It has been years since we were this impressed with meal. Oh and don’t forget the delectable smores cookie then roll yourself home to bed.
5 stars all around. Andrew was so friendly. The best BBQ our family has had since being in southern GA. We visited during the summer so there was no wait and we practically had the place to ourselves. Chili cheese fries (appetizer) Pulled pork sandwich And 2 of us got the brisket tray. All of the BBQ sauces were awesome. Definitely recommend!
10/10 The food was delicious. I was very happy to see the chef outside, smoking the meat with such joy (in the cold, cold). I appreciate that. The onion soup was bomb. The service was also great, warm, and welcoming!
