I really hate leaving negative reviews, especially to local businesses, as I am a small business owner here in Nampa as well.
Anyway, we were excited to try this place as we love BBQ and had very high hopes...unfortunately it was just a mess from start to finish...where do I begin?....well, we were greeted by an older lady that was actually quite friendly but she knew nothing about the menu, food, drinks, happy hour...etc...it took about 15 minutes just to get our order placed.. then about 20+ mins to receive our food...BTW, we were the only people in there.
Once the order was placed bearded guy #1 mentioned he was the cook, but never did anything but wonder around...so the lady went back and attempted to prepare the meal herself...she had no idea what she was doing...but God bless her for trying. At some point bearded guy #2 shows up and is mopping the kitchen floor...after a good while he puts down the mop and starts helping the lady prepare our order...without even washing his hands after mopping....YIKES!
So, we finally get our food and everything is cold...I had the 2-meat plate and my wife had a 1-meat plate....we found it almost amusing that every meat and side was cold or at best, room temperature. Also, it was very obvious that none of the food was fresh.
We took a few bites and quickly got out of there...worst $50 I've ever spent...very disappointing!

Excellent experience all the way around. Staff is fun and friendly, food is AMAZING and I ordered 1/2 lb portions which ended up being more like 1.5 lb portions! Whaaaa????? Love it! Brisket, burnt ends and pork belly were on point!!! Sides were cheesy potato's, potato salad, pasta salad and Mac n cheese. Nothing disappointed at all. It was all very good!! Plus, they have a bar!!! My new favorite place!!! At one point our server even played us his guitar while he enjoyed a cigarette on the patio… how does one even DO that?!?!? So fun!! Will be back!!!

Good BBQ fair price service was fast and that is a biggie at lunch. First time I've been around when they are open and I have to say I was not disappointed for a first meal. I had the Tri-Tip drip with jalapeno cole slaw and cheesy potato's for $8. If they were not out of it I would have also done the Sweet tea. Instead I had a coke. Food was enough to fill an average to big eater. Slaw was not so much jalapeno as it was cayenne and a lite mayo sauce. Not my favorite but editable. The cheesy potato's were a hash au gratin that was more than acceptable. (Long way from al dente but I would have liked it a little more cooked.)
Now for the meat of the matter. The Tri-tip was really good. The au jus was good if a little under flavored for dipping and the horse radish on the sandwich was outstanding! All in all a really good meal for lunch. I will go come back again for the pulled-pork or the three meat meal. Well worth the time.

I could not belive the amount of care these folks put into their food i order a pulled pork sandwich with a side for 10 bucks amazing deal I doordashed it to caldwell and the meat stayed hot bread did not get soggy and the hooked it up with 6 sauces mash potatoes were so savory, the coleslaw was perfect how I like it. I was so blown away with how much me and my wife enjoyed this meal. When u doordash usually I'm always somewhat disappointed but not this time. Great job everyone

Pork belly was great but the brisket was dry and tough! It was cut way too thick for my liking but it was so dry it was inedible. I threw most of it away.

Mike serves awesome food in an awesome atmosphere. The bbq was unbelievable and we got a Spanish guitar serenade as a side. Truly a special place.
Vegetarian options: Coleslaw, cheesy potatoes and Mac n cheese were all amazing
If I could rate this place 100, I totally would!! Though unassuming on the outside, you walk in to a clean, inviting eating area. Today was my husband’s bday but more importantly his wish was to break his 4 year vegetarian diet to have BBQ. I searched far and wide and read review after review and decided H&M was the spot and boy oh boy, I’m soooo glad we did. The customer service was seriously off the charts amazing. You don’t get service like this hardly anymore. They treated my husband like royalty knowing it was his bday AND breaking his vegetarian diet for this specific occasion. Now to the meats…omg..THE MEATS!! They were tender, tasty and pure perfection. We had both pork and beef ribs, burnt ends and brisket and they were just so suburb. Simply divine! My husband will be back to his vegetarian diet tomorrow but he has now chosen H&M to break it once per year. I will be sneaking over here before then though! Totally worth it.

Great place! I think my favorite is the pork belly with the side of cheesy potatoes. Good portions and reasonably priced. Just went in again a few days ago and only disappointment was they took the sweet tea away. Please bring it back!
