The meat was good. Everything else was mildly ok. The mac and cheese needed cheese, the beans watery.

Don’t go here they don’t cook their meat all the way. They say they put it in a smoker but it doesn’t look like the cook knows what he’s doing. They did not offer to give me anything else and I paid 26$

Ordered twice, 1st time was great; this time the online order wasn't working so I went in. I placed my order, including a canned soda and silverware. I also paid a 15% tip because I wanted it packed with care and accuracy. I only got 1 type of sauce (they have 2), no silverware, and no soda. I called, but their mailbox is full. So I'm just out of luck. I have to finish packing for a very early departure tomorrow. The 2nd time the beef tips were overly chewy, with several pieces VERY rare.

Hardly any meat on the ribs, but tasty sauce. Coleslaw was dry and garlic bread. Brisket was good.

This was our first time eating here. We got our order to go. The place was packed and there were plenty of people picking up orders to go. But they moved everyone along and were clearly hustling. I had to wait about 10 minutes. But holy smokes, was it worth it!! The meats were absolutely delicious and smoked to perfection! The Mac cheese was very good! Can't early to visit again!;

Excellent bbq spot near Santana row on Winchester blvd
It was quite busy around 5 pm on Friday
Service was efficient and attentive
Lots of staff , clean dining area , well stocked and quick delivery of food

Food is of very good quality
I had the chicken and my friend had the brisket
The large meal was enough for my post workout craving

Lots of beers on tap and in the fridge , only craft beers , dozens of varieties

I had their top selling lager and it was pretty decent

Great place for meat cravings

Went with some friends after a workout. We expected to load up on a ton of protein and carbs. Food portions were actually average in size and considering 2 of the meals were over $40 we were expecting a lot more. The ribs were ok, and not as tender as I would have anticipated; same with the tri-tip. However, the brisket was out of this world, easily the most tender and flavorful I've ever had. A little on the fatty side but that's the way I like it. One person ordered a grilled tri-tip salad and that thing was a monster. Easily the best value out of all the meals.

The sides were hit and miss. The beans were smokey but the flavor was a little off, mac and cheese was somewhere between B and B-. The cornbread was outstanding. I know some other reviews gave the cornbread a thumbs down but mine was spot on. The pickled veggies were a nice add-on. The beer menu had quite a few options.

In summary, it was decent but for the $$$ we paid it was a bit of a disappointment. 3 out of 5 stars is appropriate.

Ordered the 2 meat combo. Half of the brisket was fat. The chicken leg was still pink. I expected better for almost $30.
