“Great food and great service from Jerry“

“The only problem I have with the food is the barbeque sauce itself. It's not bad, but it's very average and a little too heavy on the vinegar. The food meanwhile is cooked very well. Smoked. Dusting of rub. Good moisture. And the feast for four can feed a family for at least a couple days.

I just wish the barbeque sauce was better. Would make the prices worth it.

Dietary restrictions: Pork, Beef, and Poultry options are all on the menu for those who abstain from specific meats, like pork.“

“Our server, Joey, was excellent. The food was great except when it came to our steaks. One steak was wayyy over peppered. The other steak was not medium rare, it was definitely rare. We still ate what we could and tipped. Also we really enjoyed the convenience of paying using the qr code at the table.“
