This place was great,small but great!! Seating consists of two booths and one bench. None the less the spice bbq ribs are great! And the special sauce on the chicken sandwich is next level! Keep up the great work and food!!!

An institution in St. Paul and for my money, the best BBQ pork sandwich in the entire Twin Cities. Discovered this place in the late 1990s and have been a patron since. Great catering as well. Rich is a great human being. For the full experience, dining in at lunch time is a must. The clientele ranges from drywall crews to folks in business attire. Don't sleep on the chicken either. Keep it going Rich.

My kind of place. Portions are generous and good value, especially compared to that "Famous" guy elsewhere in town. Real down home Saint Paul feel. Wish they offered beef brisket, too.

Wheelchair accessibility: It isn't accessible.
