This place looked so great however, it was not. It looks like it’s trying to be high end and the prices give that impression but the food does not match. The barbecue was chopped and dry. The slaw came out of a premade container. The cheddar grits tasted terrible! I spit the bite out that I had. They came in a bowl with cheddar that looked like they stuck them in the microwave to melt. The best part of my meal were the three pickle slices. The server was very pleasant but very slow. The food gave the feel of a line at a hospital but the prices are like Avalon Alpharetta. We won’t be returning.

The server he was wonderful!! They could make the place more welcoming it's plain and boring. The food I am only going to say it's not worth it.

Went in for lunch after seeing a quiet humorous and entertaining review regarding one of the wait staff there. Well, let me say that Clara far exceeded the expectations set by the review of winter. Also enjoyed the coffee and cocoa rubbed brisket and the BBQ sauce with it more than expected. The flight of GA made bourbon were a bit on the pricey side but the bourbon was good. I'm not sure I wasn't overcharged on the flight.

Went there before a show. The service was very slow and it wasn't that busy. I ordered the ribs, mac and cheese, and baked beans. It took a long time for the orders to come out and when they did, what a disappointment. The ribs were burnt and dry like they'd been under warming lamps for hours. The mac and cheese is a joke. Elbow noodles with cheese sprinkled on top and crusted over isn't a specialty dish! The beans were Ok. My wife had dry brisket and soggy brussel sprouts. I approached the manager and she said that I was the 4th person to complain about the ribs that day. Well, someone needs to tell the chef to quit serving junk plates if they want to keep customers coming back! Probably won't...

That arena rock show was killer. Show was amazing, food was good, and service even better. We sat in VIP, and will be back. Madison waited on us. Highly suggest grabbing her as your waitress. Best service I've had in years. Food was fast. And drinks are strong

Went for the first time at lunch. Really wanted the burnt ends chilli and they did not have it. ?Pros: Service was good with very friendly server. Very good BBQ sauce. Brisket sandwich was good.Cons: pulled pork is too minced up instead of shredded. Onion rings cans out overdone and greasy. Cole slaw was not fresh and tasteless. Too expensive all things considered.

Jared was the best bartender I’ve had. I had no idea what I wanted and he guessed it. Will be coming back.

The service here was fantastic!!! Andddd that's about where the positive ends. Just kidding, only slightly though. So it was our first time here - we were attending a concert next door at Boot Barn, so we figured we'd have dinner here. Got in easily enough (we had a reservation). The atmosphere is good. We were seated in a smaller side room with a fireplace going. Very nice.Here's how it shook out:Deviled eggs - not bad.Chips and salsa - not much to say. It's chips and salsa.Smoked Turkey Club - Naw. Texas toast was hard as a rock. Turkey nothing to write home about, considering this is a basically a meat place. I guess I was expecting something that looked a bit more carve-y than something you'd pull out of a lunch meat container.Brussels sprouts - also hard as a rock. One of my dinner mates said something like "I didn't know brussels sprouts were supposed to be prepared al-dente". Flavor was great but bruh. Almost un-chewable. I ended up cutting the tips off a couple of them and eating them. Finally gave up.Southern style green beans - SO GOOD. Not even kidding. Best part of the meal by a mile.Pork chop - holy chewy piece of meat. It tasted great but seriously, who wants to chew that long. A real shame.Another positive note: they have a decent amount of gluten-free options. I don't suffer from a wheat allergy, but a gal I often travel with does, and it is super helpful when a restaurant "gets it".Anywho, not recommended.
