At first glance it seems like a regular pub bar. But as you walk in and look around it's a high scale version of a pub, a more sophisticated and classy pub. Everything looks clean, neat, tables have wrapped up silverware and black stylish booths and tables you would see at a high class restaurant. The lighting is dim and the windows have strings of christmas type lights and the decor is full of paintings and stylish nick nacks, and they play jazz music seven days a week. They have condiments on the table including bottles of barbecue sauce and a wall of hot sauce near the door for those who like hot sauce on their food. They offer coke products and free refills, which the soda was very fresh and cold, a semi decent alcohol specialty drink section on the menu. The bathroom was very clean an

Bridget is amazing. Ordered brisket and pulled chicken With Mac n cheese and jalapeño cornbread Brisket is dry and was slightly cold. Chicken had no flavor except a lot of smoke. Mac n cheese was watery and not creamy Jalapeño cornbread was a bit to burnt Seems like things are warmed up and not freshly made. Been here before and it didn’t change unfortunately. Another location catered to its city.

Great lunch stop!! 5 stars on all fronts! Good portions, great service, tasty meat! We had pulled pork and shredded brisket- neither were fatty and both had an excellent flavor!

My first time dining at this restaurant was due to the chocolate walk...which i don't think they were prepared for that many people to love a bargain on chocolate..but thats a different story. .I ordered a full rack of ribs and they were so good!!!! Would definitely like to come back to try the macaroni and cheese!
