Quietly excellent. Each thing I tried confused me as to why it tasted so good in such a subdued place. On closer inspection of the decor I noticed a wall ribbons and plaques of consistent BBQ awards. This owner has spent his time perfecting his bbq craft and shares the results here. The atmosphere is bodega-esqe with good size dine in space and a great homey feel. They are Closing down at end of September for a month or 2 , let's hope this place comes back open soon, it's a hidden gem for sure.

This place is so quaint with a southern comfort vibe! We loved our food - grilliant fries, grilliant wrap, pork tacos, and baked beans. Sooo good! You can buy fresh meat here too which is pretty cool. A new favorite for us!

Love their pulled pork sandwich! It's really hard to spot from the road, but well worth the effort! Look for the BBQ flag across the the street from the car dealership on 96th st. It's on the northwest corner and set back a bit

Brisket, pulled pork ... all the smoked meat here is so good! And I always take some time to go through the grocery section for pleasant surprised like the maple-blueberry sausages! Definitely my favorite place in town for barbecue.

First time visit earlier this week. Cool little spot. Party grocery, part restaurant. If you're into BBQ, this is worth your while to check out. Lots of supplies and also a nice selection of meats if you want to BBQ at the house. Best brisket I've tasted. Ribs were good as well. Potato salad was great, Mac & cheese w/ bacon was ok but not our favorite. Family run place. We will return!

Got the choose 3 brisket, pork, ribs. The ribs were super meaty never had anything as good. Brisket had nice flavor although I would have liked a wet barbecue on them. And the pulled pork had a nice flavor but was very fatty. I won't really say that's a bad thing as I know plenty of people who love there pork that way.

So far I've only tried the tenderloin sandwich and the bacon Mac&cheese, which were both very tasty the tenderloin is large and fresh. You can tell it's made in house. The Mac and cheese is really good too. They do have a small BBQ retail area if youneed sauces charcoal spices as well as a section were they sell there meats and sausages. I really enjoyed visiting and will be back this week. Tomorrow's special! Burnt ends, can't wait!

Genuinely one of my favorite establishments in Indy. Great food, great people, comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Fair pricing, lots of sauce and seasoning options, very knowledgeable - going as far as willing to teach if you're willing to listen and learn. I would and do recommend this place to everyone with every given opportunity. Worth the drive and the experience.My personal favorites are the brisket burnt ends, pork belly burnt ends, and the Grilliant style Scotch eggs. There's nothing bad on the menu. Some things you're bound to get hooked on without a doubt.

Folks who work there and the owner too are just the kindness, down to earth people you could meet. They provide great service and a friendly atmosphere. The food is great barbecue! Saucy and tender deliciousness! Will definitely eat there many times again!

Best Rueben Ever!!! Had the Reuben today, off a special menu for the week. Seriously the best Reuben ever. Buttery toasty rye, thick slices of corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, and just the right amount of dressing (look ma, clean hands). Please, please, please bring it back as a periodic special.

Sad to say I had high expectations and it just wasn't great . buffalo shrimp with ranch? Blue cheese is best shrimp is just too small. beer brats was cold and texture was very bad, smoked mac and cheese? The heat it up in the smoker after it's done it's not all that at all.. but everything was $25 no drink.

No delivery so we had to pick up. We did a work lunch ordeal and was late getting there. They called to make sure we were picking up and kept our food fresh untill we could get there! Very friendly and delicious food. We fed our staff of 6 for less then 80 bucks. Would recommend!Tenderloin/pulled pork/ fries and Cole slaw with cookies was our order. Everyone was happy with Thier choices!
