Was thinking about ribs and brisket all day, so was very disappointed when they told us they were sold out of both. Decided to try a burger, and was pleasantly surprised. Good smokey flavor. The slaw was also good. The wait was a but long considering there were not a lot of people in there. Looking forward to trying the ribs and brisket someday...

Delicious food, quick service, and totally family friendly. The owner always seems to be there and clearly knows what he’s doing. We’ve taken our picky 1 year old multiple times and the whole family has enjoyed the food and selection of sports.It’s a great amount of food and very affordable relative to the servings. We’ll definitely be back!Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!
We have eaten at BoneHeads and many take out orders over the years and they have Excellent BBQ and very friendly service, highly recommend!

The food was very bad. Warmed up BBQ is not a good taste. Not low and slow, you can tell this is high heat pump it out BBQ. They need some work on their meat smoking skills. The building was also very hot with no AC. The people working were friendly but that was the only good thing.

Starting with the good, the food is above-average. All the other aspects leave something to be desired. Now the negatives -- persistently slow service due to understaffing; they charge a 3% fee for using a credit card (violation of credit card terms, I think); and to top it off -- they've my order wrong the last two times, shorting me $15 of items each time. So, in summary, consider going there for the food, but avoid this place if you value customer service.

Sadly, I stood in line for 13 and 1/2 minutes and absolutely no one was served. Several employees wandering around behind the counter, zero communication to any of the customers in line, and no indication if they were even still serving food. I feel like I should definitely do a review since I dedicated 13 and 1/2 minutes of my day to trying to eat it this restaurant. While I was standing in this line, I noticed several other customers walking up to the counter on the opposite side showing a receipt and complaining that they did not get what they paid for.I certainly can appreciate a busy staff in a crowded restaurant, but communication is key to customer service success. Repeatedly walking by, making eye contact with people in line, then completely ignoring the fact that they're standing there is the epitome of deplorable customer service. I certainly won't be back to give this place a second chance.
Nice staff. Over priced for the amount of food. I had a soggy pulled pork sandwich and paid more for a ridiculously small side of coleslaw. The other person with our group had a 2 meat entree that would hardly feed a toddler.

The ribs and brisket are why you come. Service was a problem due to lack of people and the woman at the front seemed completely uninterested in working. There were only two people working, and they didn't seem to have an effective system for putting together the dishes. We waited over 40 minutes for our order, but then they got our order mixed up with someone else. The main guy (owner?) was apologetic, and offered us free food, which was nice, but it would have been better to have gotting it right the first time. That said, the ribs and brisket were amazing. Chicken was a bit dry. Also, pretty good selection of beers, but why serve beers and drinks from California, Oregon, and Maine when you are a Texas Bbq. I say go all in on Texas. I get craft beers anywhere in California. I want to try something different. In any case I will be back for that delicious slow cooked brisket. And that excellent Texas Bbq sauce. Both sweet and spicy versions. Just tighten up the ship on your food prep.

This place was great under Dave, came back to try the new ownership, and if I was them I shut down or take time to invest in personnel before starting up. Walked in, lady at the register didn’t even acknowledge me or ask if I can be helped (no one in line)Brisket ordered 1 lb was like shredded beef, dry over cooked. No smoke ring, flavor was ok.Can’t see this place lasting. Would recommend Hardwood in SF for good brisket or Horn in Oakland. Come here if you want mediocre bbq. Over / under 2 years til they close up shop GL

Brisket was exactly what I hoped for. Ribs were tender and I sucked them off the bone. Cornbread was great. Gotta go back and try more of their options or just grab the meat. That’s what is important to me when I get BBQ. Prices were very fair. I’ll be back.

One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in the world of barbecue. Absolutely disgusting food. A greasy spoon all around. Got a headache immediately after I choked down some greasy brisket and deplorable rib. Flat beer. Seriously hoping for this place to close down very soon. One can only hope… processed and cancerous
