The waitstaff brings food to tables promptly, and customers praise the delicious, melt-in-your-mouth burnt ends, flavorful smoked wings, and the crispy, crunchy coleslaw. The brisket crust is described as tasty, and the hearty Texas toast is a favorite. While the prices are higher than some similar places, the quality of food and service make it worth a visit. Some reviews mention issues with customer service, especially regarding the kids eat free deal, but overall, the restaurant is known for its top-notch barbecue and welcoming atmosphere.
