You’re paying… a lot… for the atmosphere. Pulled pork sandwich tasted like the pork had been rinsed under the faucet before placed on the roll. 2 sandwiches cost $40 plus tip

Their whole theme is Smokey and the Bandit. In fact, they constantly have it showing on a screen up in a corner. The food is always amazing 🤩

I would rate this as my third favorite BBQ place in the area as far as the food. I rank this first as far as atmosphere. No, the chain bbq restaurant isn't in my list of favorites.

A group of us ate there on a Thursday...all day happy hour with great prices. I had the brisket tacos and they were delicious. I had enough to bring home. Our server was friendly and attentive, the place was packed but the food was delivered quickly. The best brisket I have had in awhile.

This place knows how to cook some meet. It’s a lil pricey but worth it. This is now my go to spot for bbq in these parts of San Diego. Hands down better than Phil’s.

Service is very good and staff is friendly. Unfortunately I ordered the brisket is was extremely tender but had absolutely no flavor. My friend ordered the meat loaf and had a similar experience. Lots of potential if the meat was seasoned.

The service was great. We loved the food and drinks. The indoor/outdoor seating is awesome! Love the vibe and atmosphere. Definitely would recommend to others, and we plan on going back with our daughter soon! If going during busy hours, parking is limited in front of the restaurant, but there is some street parking close by.

The ribs were amazing. Everything else seemed average. I did not try the brisket or meatloaf.
