Pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Friendly staff, quick to go service, and delicious food! The spare ribs were my favorite with the meat falling easily off the bone. In my opinion, 1/2 rack is enough for 3 people. I didn't realize this and ordered 1.5 racks 😅 I loved the onion rings. However, not sure I'd pay $10 for them. If you love ribs, I definitely recommend this place!😋

First of all, definitely worth a visit. YMMV. Personally I didn’t like the breaded onion rings, I prefer battered rings myself. I ordered the brisket sandwich which was sublime! My wife ordered the pork ribs (5), with Mac n cheese and mixed beans as her sides. Sides were excellent. Ribs were tender i.e. fully cooked but not fall off the bone tender. Sauce was excellent. So all in all a mixed experience. For the meal and 2 beers we spent > $90 which is not cheap.

We have been looking for a new BBQ RIB place,but when we got there we were told they only have ribs every other sun. BUT They had a Pastrami sandwich special . It was fantastic. Onion rings were great too. Will be going back.
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room for a w/c to move in.

This place is delicious, with a great price for what you are getting.
My wife and I usually go here for the brisket, which you can't go wrong with honestly.
We also have tried their crunchy tacos, which are decent. It's not the best, but it's good enough.
As for the street corn, it has a nice kick to it.
Now my personal favorite is the tator tots and mac and cheese.
The tator tots have a great crunchy exterior with a soft interior, and if you pair that with the Barbecue sauce you can't go wrong, also if you mix the spicy sauce with the barbecue it would create and spicy barbecue which is freaking delicious. 😋
As for the Mac and cheese, it's mild and flavor, so if you like that, then you will like it here, that's for sure.
I have been here a few times, and out of all those times, I have always left here happy since the food is good.

We had such a great experience at this restaurant… The brisket melted in our mouth and the sweet potato casserole was to die for and the customer service was also outstanding. So thankful to live nearby to be able to come back on a consistent basis. 10 out of 10 recommend for great service, friendly, welcoming, ambience, and most importantly mouthwatering food.

I'm giving this place a solid three. The service is great. There super friendly and attentive. But as for the bbq. I'm sorry to say this but for the prices of the bbq. I was like this is what we get. It had no flavor what so ever. Yes there is salt and pepper. But babbbbayyyyyyy!!! Where is the seasoning at? I need something that's going to envelope my taste buds. This certainly lacked all of it. The mac and cheese was of course tasted like it came out of a bag. Like at a fast food chain. The desert was good. Small amount to get ya fixed. Would I recommend this spot? Maybe to those who don't spice. But I rather go down the street to hogs where the bbq is seasoned and for the same amount for one plate you can feed roughly about two people. Missed oppurtunities here. Could've provided more meat some bread on the side something.

I highly recommend this place, and I only wish I had pictures to show you. First off, The ribs are juicy and tender, perfect seasoning, and don't really need the BBQ sauce, however the sauce is the icing on the cake. I'm not really a cream corn man but I'll order that from THEM anytime. Last but not least, mac and cheese. Good flavor a little wetter than I care for, but still good and would eat again.
