My husband and I were at the dealership across the street and could smell the deliciousness. I am so glad we decided to go in. Everyone was so friendly and inviting, they had the World Series on and were playing trivia! I even scored some swag (super cute beanie)! Everyone pitched in to serve us and the food was amazing! Thank you!!

I do not recommend. Came in August 2024. SERVICE: Walked in and had to ask bartender to place order. Customers should be greeted, even if busy, which they were not. PRICES: Overpriced, especially for quality and Portion-size (I guess I’m used to real TX BBQ…or any Midwest state). They have a Happy Hour, so I can’t say much on that, but perhaps better. Three people were in at the bar for it, but they didn’t seem thrilled. FOOD: She told me the cornbread was delicious, but I am not a fan of burned food. The brisket was fatty, somehow still dry and had a char burned taste to it. The Mac n cheese was flavorless and I hope the crumbs on top were not from the floor. The fries were also flavorless and cold (if fresh they should be still warm for the distance driving home).

What an absolute UNIT of a BBQ place. I was completely blown away by the crispy, "melt in your mouth" burnt ends. Our flavor guide, Andrea was incredible and fully embodied the spirit of this place. If I lived closer, this would be my go-to for a first date, anniversary, birthday, or really any special occasion.

Too expensive. 25 bucks for a pitcher of beer and mediocre selection of tap beers.

Got smash burgers, brisket, beans, coleslaw and fries - all good - way better than Lucille’s and other local bbq option

Did not like the rub that overwhelmed the meat. Too strong, too salty, hard to taste the meat.

The smoked meats here are one of a kind. The only problem is that the meat portions were a bit small

Drove by this place multiple times, and really know it was a BBQ joint. Placed order online, went to pick it up, and love the atmosphere, and of course, it's all in the smoke, just needed an old wood floor, and peanut shells all over, that would of been perfect. Got the food home, everything looked good, and teasted good, but one issue, just like someone mentioned, the portion! One slice of brisket, com'on, might have the taste of Texas, just all California when it comes to the servings.
