Excellent blues music played in the background as we ate scrumptious shrimp and grits, sat on a fabulous and enormous porch swing, and munched on hush puppies and nachos. The sliders (we got all three) were okay. The service was wonderful.

Food was a solid B, hoped more for southern joint. Our waiter did not check on us but the manager did. That woman deserves a raise she was running all night!
Great live music. Will definitely check it out again.

Went to watch a performance, and have dinner. The food and service were great. The music set up is a bit odd, with the tables to the left and right of the stage. And only the bar seating in front. Facing away. Good performances. Have been there twice.

Food was TASTY AND PHENOMENAL. Awesome bbq, awesome sauces and the drinks were delicious. It was a slow night, the night before Mother’s Day and we were treated so cordially and felt like we were regular loyal customers. The service, bartenders, the music act were awesome. Such a great atmosphere. I am going again as soon as we get another date night and babysitter! We drove an hour to Medford and would happily do it again.

Smoked wings are great. Shrimp and grits are up there as well. Nice menu great service but go for the Live Music. Great booker for classic and up and coming blues. Cocktails are strong

Some of the best, most authentic southern tasting barbecue in New England and a very friendly staff.

I had a great time, the sliders and Margherita were wonderful, and the band was very good. The set up is kind strange tho because most of the seating in to the sides of the stage.

Very unfortunate. This was my very first time here. I even made a reservation to do Easter for my kids. We waited 57 minutes for the food just to see our food. Be given to the table next to us. The people even told the server they did not even order that and the Waitress automatically cashed us out without giving an explanation. No apologies from the manager. still paid for the drinks, which is fine by. Pretty much saying screw us. We don't get nothing. Guarantee the people next us got our food complimentary because they didn't order that, but they were eating it

The place looked awesome we played pool had a good time enjoyed our time but the bartender Angie was very rude. She looked she didn’t want to b there. Everybody felt uncomfortable ordering a drink with her because we thought she would give us attitude so we just left. But other than that the restaurant looks nice just be careful with Angie when she’s bartending
