Customer Reviews
Stopped by to grab a meal on my lunch break in the late afternoon and was immediately greeted by Smitty and Donna upon entering. Because I chose to dine in, they took my order at a table instead of the counter and also brought my drink and meal over to me directly. Both folks were very friendly and made conversation with me before, during, and after my meal. I was the only customer at the time, so it was a very short wait for my order, but they did not compromise on the freshness whatsoever. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich with sides of mac and cheese and bacon green beans. They got to my table at the perfect temperature for me to dig in immediately. If you’re someone who likes their food on the saltier side, you’ll want to make use of the salt shaker at the table, and I appreciated that
As always, Smitty’s knocked it out of the park. The food was great. The service was great. The lemonade is the best you can get anywhere. Fresh and delicious. And the desserts were all amazing. The brisket was tender and just right. The ranch dressing is some of the best I’ve had. Overall great experience. Glad they’re open Saturdays now. Makes it worth the drive from out of town on my day off.
First time ever eating here, the customer service was fantastic! Ordered the brisket sandwich, their brisket is smoked for 16 hours and there’s no doubt that it wasn’t. Sandwich was absolutely amazing!!! Also had there German chocolate cheese cake, it’s made in house in the absolute cleanest ingredients imaginable. No sugar, no flour, just clean pure ingredients!!! It was absolutely incredible.
I picked up a to-go order for dinner last night and it was amazing! They were extremely friendly and had my food ready to go on time, they made sure everything was correct. The brisket, and the bacon were my favorite, along with the homemade Oreo Cheesecake! I will definitely be coming back again!
I have no idea how this place is still open. The food is absolutely not worth the price or experience. The Mac and cheese tastes like actual cardboard which I didn’t even think was possible for something to taste like that. Unbelievable to spend 75 dollars on the smallest amount of the nastiest food I’ve ever had anywhere. I never take to writing reviews but this is crazy.
