Rachel, the Bartender, was good to us. She made good recommendations for food and drink (she poured a nice stout that was very enjoyable). We sat at the bar and the owner came over and chatted with us and he didn't stay too long but he made us feel comfortable and welcomed. We couldn't eat all of our food as we were full, but what we had for left overs were really good. The ribs, brisket, mac 'n cheese were all excellent. They crisp the top of the mac which gave it a nice crunch. The meat wasn't falling off the bone of the ribs (but not too far from it) so it was just right. Brisket had a nice smoke and was juicy. BBQ Sauce was good but only used a little. THE SMOKED CANDIED BACON WAS REALLY GOOD!
We were there on a Thursday at noon and parking anywhere nearby sucked. Even the public lots 2 blocks south were full. Limited parking would be the only reason affecting our return.

Best loaded baked potato! I had it with Chili and it was just the right amount of spice. Great service. It smells amazing when you walk in. We got the brisket sandwich as well and it was fantastic. We will definitely be back.

Service was slow, but I'm still going back because the food was so good. (Not the deviled eggs though. Those were....odd.) But the meats, the nachos, the tots... Wow so flavorful. Was plenty stuffed but wanted to keep eating

Mya is an excellent server. She is courteous, friendly and professional. She helped me with the smoke turkey order for Thanksgiving day. Awesome service and delicious barbecue!

Service was very good, but the food was just "ok". Ribs were pretty good, and the brisket was cooked well, though the spice rub that they used didn't work for me. Deep fried pickles were a good start to go with their beer selection, and the bottle of wine that we got was enjoyed by the rest of the table.

Went here on a weekday at 12. With all the BBQ just barely ready it was fantastic. Brisket falls apart with just your fork. Ribs fall off the bone. Coming back!
