The food was delicious and was ready quickly! Didn’t get the owners name but he was very friendly and had an amazing attitude. The Mac and cheese was one of the best I’ve had.

Great quick stop for breakfast burrito, and BBQ is also very good. Food is fresh and clean, which is not what I would say for other local places to eat. The activities bowl is loaded!

My husband and I tried this place out on Sunday. The weather was overcast so we were the only customers there at the time. The service were courteous.I ordered the pulled brisket with green beans and sweet potato casserole, and my husband ordered a burger and tater tots. The food portions on the brisket platter were very generous. The cornbread was very good, and so was the sweet potato casserole. The green beans were fine. Unfortunately the brisket was too salty and had too much grease. I started to try and balance the bites of brisket with the other items, particularly the cornbread and greenbeans, which believe it or not were less salty than the brisket. It didn't work, I hit a wall and had to stop eating. My husband may have ordered better by getting a burger. I wished it was better, but they need to find a way to drain the grease and cut the salt.

Brisket was extremely salty and not really edible; however, it did match the salty level of customer service we witnessed another patron endure from the cashier/owner. 2 out of 7 menu items were decent. The mac n cheese & cornbread.

I never would have thought I would give 5 stars to nachos NOT smothered in cheese!Pulled pork nachos are absolutely top teir. The meat they smoke themselves out back and layer ontop of perfectly crisp chips that stay crunchy the whole way through. The sauces alone are worth the order.Don't forget they're open for breakfast! Skip Waffle House and enjoy a local favorite all day long!

Food: 2 out of 7 food items were decent/ Customer Service: not even ratable. Started off while deciding what we wanted to order with another customer/ younger girl that had ordered prior to us coming up to the window and asking the cashier for her sprite she had ordered and not received with her food. The cashier was extremely rude and told her she didn’t order a drink & if she wanted one it would be an extra $2(wish I could convey her tone over a simple request through a review). The girl said she did order it; but said ok - can I just get it now then. That interaction was odd; but we were hungry so we proceeded to order. Let me start by saying I’m a loud talker; but while I was ordering the cashier said she couldn’t hear me because of the fan blowing at the window – which would make sense why the girl said she had ordered a drink and assumed it was paid for and the cashier said she didn’t. Moving on – after some back and forth and repeating the order we finally have ordered. It’s a food truck, so no waitressing – I told my husband to still tip 15% clearly that lady needed some kindness thrown her way with her attitude. We didn’t see the additional 4% added if you use a card; but oh well. While waiting a good 10’ + from the ordering window we hear the cashier, who is apparently the owner – talking crap about the girl trying to get a sprite – cussing up a storm and calling the girl names. Extremely off putting…but the cherry on top was when we got our food. The food containers were not in bag (had to go back and ask for one), boxes had food all on the side/messy; extra sauces we did pay for were missing (had to go back and ask for those – which the owner replied im glad you checked I completely forgot to give them to you.) She had a way different tone then what she used previously with the younger girl; 100% gave the vibe she was being nasty to the other girl because of her age vs talking to another adult with her prior tone. I got the brisket platter w/ cornbread,coleslaw & mac n cheese. The mac n cheese/cornbread was good; coleslaw was warm; and brisket was so salty it was inedible – literally salt level matched the cashier/owners salty attitude to a tee. My husband got the ono sandwich – same with the brisket it was terribly salty and tater tots were not even warm.

Meat was juicy and not dried out. Sides were on point and good portions. One of the best stops in the area!

Sherrie Combs

We ordered pulled pork, chicken, & brisket sandwiches. They were very good. Only suggestion would be to place draining rack for excess juices and grease could settle. But meats were very good, flavorful and tender. Love the skinny fries too. Will definitely order from here again.Kid-friendliness: Good size for kids
