I had the pleasure of trying the burger, sausage, broccoli salad, fries, banana pudding, Mac and queso, and sticky pork belly—and let me tell you, every single bite was an absolute delight.

The sticky pork belly was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the sausage link was perfectly juicy and bursting with flavor. The fries were golden, crispy, and even better when paired with the tangy Texas Red and Carolina Gold sauces.

The burger and the sausage link, though, were the (tied) stars of the show. Both choices are simple and very reasonably priced. The burger was one of the best burgers I’ve ever tasted. Each bite was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and incredibly satisfying. The sausage link was made with a perfectly balanced blend of ingredients that made it impossible to put down.

The Mac and queso was a standout as well—completely unique and absolutely next-level. It’s not your traditional mac n’ cheese; it’s a bold, creamy creation that left me wanting more. The broccoli salad was a refreshing surprise, with a perfectly balanced tanginess and flavor that was, quite literally, DILL-icious!

I finished off the meal with their banana pudding, which was the perfect way to end such a feast. Light, airy, and just sweet enough, it was like a cloud of dessert heaven.

On top of all the incredible food, the service was quick, warm, and friendly. I can’t wait to come back and explore more of the menu—this place is a total gem!

All I can say is very here! One day I pick up some ribs and they were so good, I had to come back! Today I had the brisket and sticky pork belly and THEY WERE DELICIOUS! The friendly service is the cherry on the top. Oh and there is half price margaritas on Saturdays. Check this place out. You won't be disappointed.

Oh my! Always satisfied when I come here. A little chilly today outside so decided to come in for some Texas chili. It was fantastic added scallions a bit of fried onion and a little queso and the heat from the chili was perfect. Not to hot but the perfect spices. Picked up a brisket sandwich to take home for dinner. We’re looking forward to coming back!

I ordered the brisket taco and queso mac and cheese. Unfortunately, the food arrived lukewarm. The brisket was fatty, lacked flavor, and was inconsistently cooked, with some pieces fully done and others almost raw. The queso mac and cheese was also dry and bland. The staff was friendly and attentive. Good Service Terrible

I cannot say enough good about this restaurant. My high school grandsons & I polished off a feast of the most delicious food. We had ribs, brisket, wings, tater tot casserole, elote, banana pudding & cookies. It is gone. Every bite. The 3 of us were humming as we ate. I LOVE smoked meat & this is the best of the best. If you haven't tried it yet, you really must. Oh & the atmosphere & service is superb as well!

DELICIOUS! We had a sample plate with brisket, sausage and ribs along with a side of tator tot casserole...YUMMMM-exceeded our expectations! This place is SO good, very friendly staff and cool layout. Great place to bring a group of friends for a casual dinner and some drinks! Large outdoor space & bar for nice weather too.
