The food isn't too bad but when I order a BBQ sandwich or BBQ burrito I expect it to be BBQ not just plain pulled pork. They need to use more BBQ sauce on all of their meats.

Amazing, stick to your ribs food! Come hungry, because they aren't shy with portions.

Was looking for somewhere to get a quick bite to eat on base and with the new Popeyes opening up literally right next door, Mine Train Smokery's very short line appealed to me. This was my first time eating here and I'm not the biggest connoisseur for BBQ but I'm able to recognize and appreciate good BBQ when it's in front of me. First let me start off by saying the customer service was amazing. The young lady working the register helped me tremendously with any questions I had about the menu. It's a small little pocket in the MCX with limited seating, but comfortable, and the rustic aesthetic is comforting as well. Food was quick to come out which was appreciated but brings me to my next point, the actual food. Mac n Cheese bowl with Tri Tip was good, but just that, there is nothing crazy or exciting going on. Not sure how that two would've faired on their own but together it was tasty and tangy. However would not convince me to come back here again. The same could be said about the beans. They weren't too salted which to me is a plus because they do have condiments on the side so customers can season to their liking. Lastly the cornbread.... Man were my hopes high when I opened up that box. (Keep in mind I dined in so I could truly taste everything fresh). The cornbread was everything but fresh. It was extremely dry and somehow really bland for what looked like was going to be the best part of the meal. It needs serious adjustments. Originally was going to give this place 4 stars but I wouldn't be doing anyone justice if I lied about how I felt about the cornbread... damn. Overall, I'm not mad about the experience, it did what I intended on it doing after a long morning with no food which was fill me up. A bit on the pricier side. For everything including a 20% tip it was around $25.

The buffalo wings didnt have no buffalo sauce and almost tasted like its been sitting for 30 minutes. The mac and cheese was subpar at best. The potato salad was bland. Like really bland. The workers where nice thats the only good thing from this place

I thought the food was tasty. It's about $20 for a combo(after taxes and stuff) which might be a little pricy depending what you're used to.

I wish I had taken a picture of the BBQ sundae I ordered! It was absolutely delicious! Picture a Starbucks cup filled with brisket, Mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and pulled pork. Mix in a generous portion of BBQ sauce, top it with a few pickles and cornbread hockey puck and it was a recipe for success. The lady at the register was very nice and explained what the menu items were well. While I waited on my food to be prepared I heard her helping other customers and made sure they knew what they were getting and what was included in their combos. They also blow this wooden train whistle when you order certain items which was neat to see.

Overpriced, underwhelming. Of all the restaurants to pick to put in here after Jamba Juice was chased out, I don't know how they decided on this

This place his so much potential but their sides are terrible. The mac and cheese sauce has separated and I don't even know what is going on with their coleslaw. It does not resemble any coleslaw I have ever had. I think their mashed potatoes are ok which is the 2nd star. I hope they make some upgrades to their food. They charge a lot of money (2 sandwiches and 2 small small sides is $35+) so I won't go back until I hear the sides have improved.
