Just go here... Great service! Even better BBQ and a solid, San Diego established BBQ joint(OG place in Poway). The spicy brisket melt was fire.

Was not a fan... The corn bread was grainy and no flavor... The chicken had no flavor and the skin on the meat was rubbery, the Mac was not a fan... I can tell who cooked it. Won't be going back. Waste of money.

We came in for dinner after spending 20 minutes trying to find somewhere in the area that suited what we fancied, and wasn’t too loud. In the end we were very glad we visited as we were very impressed by just how good the food and drinks were! I had the tacos with Cajun fries and the cider, and my gosh it was just amazing! Really tasty food that left us satisfied, and the cider was like drinking juice, despite it being 6.9%, which made it both delicious and dangerous haha.

The atmosphere was great and we were able to talk easily, and the lady that served us was very friendly and attentive.

Some of the best chicken wings I’ve had in years since West 4th & Jane in Santa Monica shut down. Highly recommend the buffalo wings. Loving the hot links too.

Awful. Link fell apart, the service was not good. This was like a TV dinner not worth it don't waste your time. Portions were small, fries were way too salty.

The food had good flavor but was so dry. We got pork belly tacos, the pulled pork tv dinner, and carnitas tacos. All were sooo dry.
