They have one of the most diverse menus l've seen in the area offering not just barbecue but also seafood dishes, Mexican food, steak, and so much more! I don't think I've ever had a Salmon Cheesesteak before, but this one was delicious! It comes with broccoli rabe, sharp cheese, and their house glaze. If you love fish tacos then you definitely need to try their beer battered Mahi Tacos special while supplies last! The presentation of the Surf & Turf Dinner was stunning and it came with some garlic green beans and creamy mashed potatoes. All of the sides were amazing but my number one is the mac & cheese. It was very creamy, well seasoned, and I really liked the pasta they chose. All of their desserts and drinks are also made fresh in house daily. They have plenty of indoor/outdoor seating

Went here for a quick laid-back bbq dinner option, and this place was close to my home, so I figured; Why not? The atmosphere was really cool, laid back, and trendy. There are lots of potted plants outside both on the ground and hanging from the rafters to break up the asphalt parking lot feel outside which was nice. They brought the food out to the table after I ordered and had a pretty good bbq menu selection. Food: Pulled pork sandwich overall was very good; my only gripe if i had to nit-pick is a lack of sauce on the sandwich and cold buns, the taste was still very good even without toasted buns and more sauce though. The slaw, pickles, and amount of meat (pork) on the sandwich was perfect. They definitely don't skimp out here like so many others! I also tried the Mac-n-cheese, and i

I own a sports podcast network that deals with nhl, ahl and echl hockey leagues and threw a cancer benefit at this location after doing a promotional sponsorship with the brand for months. The cancer benefit was an absolute success due to my team getting donations from our network sponsors and teams we're credentialed with in the nhl, ahl and echl for raffle items we raffled off during our event. The staff knocked it out of the park even being understaffed, 2 employees was definitely a challenge to keep up with the amount of business we brought in. According to the employees, it was the most people ever to attend a night at the location. We never saw the total amount of revenue, based of John's attitude, he wouldn't let that number be public knowledge. We knew we did well over what we ev

Cute place, inside and out ! Everything we ordered was hot and delicious . We had no problems with service or whom I assume was the owner, by the reviews of others I’m guessing he may have been stressed with the opening of a new place and is getting it under control . Do not not go because of his attitude, order take out for I want this place to stick around . Loved my street corn and burnt ends . Place was very clean . Really can’t wait to go back for the dessert, heard there’s a new baker on premises and need to try them out ! Also, thought the prices were very reasonable for how much everything has gone up recently.

Ask for a hot sausage, they said hot sausage was $8. I said ok & this what they gave me. The bread was hard & falling apart. I was so disappointed like unbelievable. U gotta be kidding me, no way this is a $8 sausage. I see why they was so empty. This is bad for business. Coming from a business woman. On the flip side they fresh juice was amazing. & the guys was very nice!
