What a wonderful dinner! The brisket and pulled pork were perfection! The dirty rice tasted so dang fresh and full of flavor. The cocktails were great too! We will be back! Our new favorite BBQ spot! The patio had a nice fire pit next to the river.

I bought the shrimp and grits, tips on two different visits and was not to pleased with the taste of the food. Thought I try it again. Mario sold me and told me to try it again. I tried it and I will be coming back and will tell my friends.
