Friendly folks tend the newly implemented bar. The food is outstanding.

What an outstanding Barbecue spot! The setting has you feel as if you've traveled back to the 50s and are having Barbecue the way it was meant to be done. I can't wait on my next visit to B'ham to visit again.

It is placed in not fancy area but food is delicious. Highly recommended 👌

Our food came out almost immediately and was delicious! We had the pulled pork sandwich with potato salad and the best fried pickles I’ve ever had!

Wow that white sauce. First time having the white sauce. Don't know why more BBQ restaurants don't do chicken thighs but those were wonderful. All our meats and sides were very good. Can't wait to pass through again on our way back to Kansas.

Very good BBQ. The grits and green combo is very different but liked it. Our choices made us curious to try the other menu choices. We also had the loaded fries. Pork and chicken were really good and worth another buy

We stopped here last night after a basketball game at BJCC. We took a chance that this would be a good place to eat. We were wrong.
It was GREAT !!!
The pulled pork was very moist and delicious. Not a shred of dryness at all and SO much flavor.
The cheese grits are to die for.
The greens were very very good. The fried green tomatoes were top notch.
Our table had 8 at it. Everyone got something different and everyone loved what they got.
Absolutely NO complaints.
The wait wasn’t long for the food. Everything was delicious and fresh. I’m from Tuscaloosa and will go up there to eat again just because it’s that good.
The service was very good.

If you’re going as a large crowd on a weekend night there isn’t much room for a large group. The dining area has booths and a few tables you can push together but those were taken when we got there.
They have a bar area with lots of stools.

It’s delicious!!! Go there!! They do not disappoint!!

Oh- I have celiac and got the grits and greens over grits and it didn’t make me ill at all. Gluten friendly!!

All the way from NY to eat some soul food. The place has a rustic look and has typical Southern comfort food. Definitely try while visiting Birmingham, AL. Ben, the host really took care of us. Give it a go!

I love this place and would eat here more if the lighting were dimmed in the evening. It’s just too bright to relax and have dinner in the evenings. I write this in hopes the manager will see it and make a point of dimming the lights. Others feel the same. Service and food are wonderful!

Best chicken sandwich in Alabama. That being said, there is little service. You do everything yourself.
