“My sister in law recommended and we went on our anniversary eve and had a spectacular time. The food was excellent and the waiter, Antonio, felt like a long lost friend. As we were leaving, Bob the owner made a point of coming over and saying hello and chatting. Prior, As we were sitting at our table and enjoying our time and a wonderful drink, we noticed that Bob knew everyone that came in. We felt “left out” but by the time we left we felt like family. It doesn’t hurt that the food was really really good. We went on a Monday and they had a steak frites special as well as a filet special. The steaks were perfectly cooked and the sides were extremely well prepared. I almost don’t want to recommend because I want this wonderful place all to myself. Thanks to all and we will be back! Enjoy. We also met Christy who was as nice as the rest of the group. You cannot go wrong here.“

“Very happy with the experience here. Went in at 11:58 am to get lunch and experienced the noon playing of the National Anthem, which was done with a great deal of care and reverence. I didn't know about that, and I was glad to be there for it.

Food is excellent. Terrific value for the price, great portion sizes of quality BBQ. I had the brisket sandwich, but got a bunch of sides (green beans, collard greens, baked beans, and Cole slaw, as well as cornbread) and all were outstanding.

When we got back to our house to eat, the rest of our family smelled and tasted the food, and then insisted we get it for dinner. Next day leftovers were even better. (Get the pulled pork, save some, make nachos tomorrow. You're welcome.)

The service was even better. Even while busy, they were friendly. One error was made and they immediately made it right. Will absolutely return.“
