Had the pulled pork and the brisket and they both would be something I would come back for. The outdoor feel is quiet and serene as well as peaceful. Be forewarned as soon as you get out of your vehicle and get a good sniff of the meat cooking you will be hungry, even if you just ate.“

“Had a really great dinner here. Lots of intriguing things on the menu and good variety of sides. I had the pulled pork sandwich - there was something else unique about it but I can't quite remember what now - and some of the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. We were both just really happy with our food. I enjoyed trying a couple of different lagers of theirs too. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. Hope we can come back again sometime!“

“Finally we got around to going to this resturaunt. It's the same menu as the sister bar & grill. Which means the food is awesome as always. The remodel of the whole place breathes new life to it. The staff are learning, that said- we were told there was a 10 minute wait. So we sat at the bar, which we were able to order our appetizer and dinner before the table became available. The food was spot on. The flavors complemented the Horseshoe (see menu or my photo) the sidewinders potatoes matched well with the sauce.
