Celiac mecca! Great BBQ! Portion size was about right. My brother loves it! Great sandwich options. Combinations for sandwiches made them interesting choices and hard to choose just one. Not sure that I liked the cheese sauce. Bbq plates are another great option! Definitely worth a try. Id like to go back and try a hot dog or two.

1st time visit got a chili dog and fries and drink. The wait time to order was a little long don't know why. The fries were good but the chili dog with onion seemed to taste a little stale. Don't know if it was the bun or what.

Everyone talks about their hot dogs but y'all are missing out on the best chicken tenders!!! They aren't small and they are perfectly coated with flavor!! Pair them with those amazing hush puppies and a cherry vanilla Sundrop slushie.....😋😋😋. Plus the young lady at the counter is always the best!

I like this place because the menu is varied and all the choices are good. They have daily specials. My husband loves the hotdogs. The flounder sandwich is best in town, IMHO. there are good choices for sides as well. It seemed cold inside the last time I was there. It's counter service...no waitresses but that's no big deal to me.

My first and likely my last visit. The cheeseburger combo was a bit overpriced. The fries were great, but the burger had an off taste and was for sure from a frozen pack. For the price point, I fully expected a fresh ground beef hand-pattied burger experience. :-(
