★★★★★ 5.0 Tim Barfield · Jul 2025

Stopped in for some tasty BBQ and was not disappointed. I could smell the smoke from the restaurant from down the street. I had a cup of the brisket chowder, it was very creamy and full of flavor. I got a 2 meat plate with brisket, pork ribs, corn bread muffins, and deviled egg potato salad. The brisket was perfect. The pork ribs had a perfect bite to them and the sauce was amazing. The corn bread was the best I have had in a long time from a restaurant. They had a punch in the bar that went well with the BBQ. Everyone was super friendly and really put my experience over the top. I would definitely come back here if I was in the area.

Being from Texas, I’m pretty particular about my BBQ and this place nailed it. Hands down the best bbq in the area! The portions are huge, the brisket is cooked just right, and the beer is cold. What more could you ask for…

★★★★☆ 4.0 Remy Hii · Jun 2024

Pretty decent barbecue. All the meats were cooked to perfection: the brisket was exceptionally tender and juicy. The ribs were also cooked really well, although the flavour was understated. The sides are small and unremarkable, the grits are not seasoned, the slaw lacks any acidity or tang. The beans are okay, but the texture feels like they are canned. The Mac and cheese was giving boxed mac & cheese vibes but still pretty tasty proving that even boxed mac and cheese can be delicious.

Excellent service and reasonably priced dish. We weren't hungry so ordered a medium platter for 3 people. It was big enough for us. The server was super friendly. The spicy NW vegi was good and unique. The brisket was good. Nothing extra ordinary. The pulled pork was solid as well. I actually liked the sauce called Sassy. Pretty cool restroom deco so you should check it out.

The food was delicious! The service was great. The portions of meat were pretty scant, but we were able to try almost all of the meats by purchasing two medium plates and sharing them between 3 of us (husband, son and myself). The sides were decent but I thought some needed more flavor/seasoning. The beer I tried was tasty and the have draft root beer! Lastly, the donut was ok. I had higher expectations from prior online review photos but it was definitely edible. I would recommend giving it a try to see for yourself! Overall, I'd likely eat here again.
