★★★★☆ 4.0 Diego Salinas · Nov 2025

Solid BBQ if you are going through Johnson City. We went for a weekend trip and decided to stop by here for dinner - and we liked it overall! The meat definitely has good flavor, but it was a little tough to chew through. However, the prices are extremely fair and the service is very good! If you are vegetarian, they offer meatless patties for their burgers which was a nice touch :)

Random stop on our way home from a weekend away. We sat outside & it was lovely. Love the little shops and decor outside! Food was good. Fried pickles were great. Chicken fried steak was good and a large serving. Everyone was pleased. We'll definitely stop again on our way home next time.

It was my first time coming here and I really enjoyed it. Our waitress Makaelah was really kind and constantly checked on us. The brisket sandwich was very delicious. All my friends enjoyed their food and had a great time. They have really big portions. I would definitely come here again if I’m in Johnson City.

amazing service, Brenna was excellent! we had a great time. Our drinks were on time, and made to perfection! enjoyed the food, the drinks and can't say how much of a good time we had! What an incredible town and what an incredible BBQ place this is! highly recommended! Will definitively come again!

had a nice lunch with the family and enjoyed just about everything! service was friendly and attentive. the atmosphere is simple but warm. our food seemed to take longer than expected for how quiet it was. the pickle chips were great. the bbq was a bit hit or miss though. the beans and potato salad were fine, same with the sausage. the pork ribs were tasty but the brisket was lacking flavor.
