So I saw the reviews before I came and one review mentions it taste like hand sanitizer. I think that was valid . But hear me out . My wife had the double smash burger and she loved it . She did not have the same reaction as me when I bit into her burger , it had a after taste to me like hand sanitizer, now it could be the how it’s cooked or Maby how they clean there stove but that rings true to some people they may not taste it but to others they may taste it . I can’t put my finger on it but it did have a funny after taste to me . Now the establishment gives pub vibes . I smelt no food in the air just kind of staleness . You no how you can smell food cooking for blocks I did not get that from here. The wings were 10/10 and fries 10/10 . I got the dyno rib sandwich with brisket and smash burger and it was 9/10 and I didn’t have that after taste it was perfect to be honest I just wish it had came with bbq on the side but I used the ranch that I used for my wings . The pink lemonade was also good . I rate this place a 7/10 the service wasn’t bad the food was cool just a few minor gripes I stayed at the top . Would I come here again not for the price because I did mention to the wife I’ll make this at home next time . So take that for what it is . Customer service in all food spots should be top tier or you can just make it better at home . For cheaper. Now the ice cream around the corner , now that’s something to talk about . If you go here go for desert after at the ice cream spot you won’t regret it
Amazing food and service. We already can’t wait to come back. The staff was also understanding for my dairy allergy which I super appreciate. 10/10!!

The food, waiters, and the actual venue it self is amazing, the manager for that shift in particular was rude mabye the girl was having a day off but I'm not knocking a review over 1 person. Seriously come to this place enjoy the brisket, and enjoy the Wagyu burger! Love this place going to come back more often probably during a different time hopefully we don't get the same manager there.

The food wasn’t terrible but mid at best. it’s definitely way overpriced. Nashville hot chicken sando wasn’t that good, the pickles and coleslaw made the sandwich. Brisket quesadilla is way too oily and the way they cut it is stupid. the mac and cheese balls weren’t that good. The Mac n cheese was creamy but very bland. I feel like everything I ordered, I could’ve made better myself at home. Probably won’t be back

Ask for napkins, she gave me & my Mother 2 each, like they were rationing them. This is a barbecue restaurant people use napkins!! Restrooms 🚻 were filthy.

Tried the Mac n cheese and brisket burrito and it was suppppper salty. Plus the tortilla had a metal taste. Same for the smash burger fries very salty meat and fries and dry. We asked for several sauces and only ranch made the fries a bit better but the metal taste was every where. Service was good, but eating outside made it uncomfortable with all the bugs .

Food was average. I had the smash burger they failed to tell me it didn’t come with fries I had to order those separately. I originally wanted the egg roll with chicken but the cashier rudely stated they didn’t have any. So I tried to order fried chicken and she rudely stated they didn’t have any of that either so I opted for the smash burger. When it came it was cold and they offered free cornbread because we came in today. I thought it was weird to offer cornbread but not offer fries. I don’t think I would return the service was not great and all the staff seem mad. I traveled too far to try the food and it was just average with horrible service. Save your money and patron a place that has all the entrees on the menu.

The service was great. Very lovely ladies. The food was great my fiance loves the brisket. I got the chicken sandwich. It was good but slightly overcooked. I also got the sad mom Seltzer which was really good. Over all would definitely recover if you like brisket and beer.

Food was awful, the servers seemed like they want to be there. The place is really nice from the inside though. I won’t be coming here again.

First time eating there and omg 😲. My 10 year old daughter had to use the restroom before eating. Only one restroom was working. The one that was working was ABSOLUTELY disgraceful. It looked like the toilet over flowed and no one bothered to mop it up. The toilet seat was up and stained with hair on it. I've never seen such a disgusting restroom. I seriously wanted to walk out. The food was extremely greasy. Like dripping with grease. Not sause. Saturated with oil. Sorry was a hard no .
