Really nice place! I had the Trinity sandwich. Their meat was great, and the combination of brisket, pork, and sausage was nice! My wife tried their homemade potato chips. They are excellent! I will definitely eat here again!

BBQ had very little flavor, and was dry. BBQ sauce really didn't help much. Very disappointed!!

Happened to stumbled this little place by accident one day, and made the hour drive to go try it out. We went in on a Saturday night around 5 and no wait at all. Granted this was on memorial weekend and most are camping or at the lake somewhere. The restaurant itself was cute and relaxing. Service was great, and food came out fast. We sat outside and it was joyful. Unfortunately the main thing we wanted to try were the Ribs, and they ran out earlier in the day and didn’t have more until closer 6pm after they have to sit out and do their thing. The voodoo chips were piled up and very filling, potato salad was great, and the burnt ends and sliced brisket was good. Kids got the nachos to share and they loved it. The only complaint I would have is that the nachos apparently won’t have the cheese melted on them, and luckily our waitress told us about it and asked if we wanted it melted on them. Every chip deserves melted gold on them.

I wouldn’t say it was the best BBQ that I’ve had, I have my top three, and they been hard to beat so far. Hopefully no offense taken, just my personal preference of course. Probably wouldn’t make a special trip out there again. But if in the area would definitely stop by again and could hopefully try the Ribs and maybe some dessert next time. For two adults, two kids, two waters, one soda and one bottle soda, two adult meals and one nacho to share. We got out of there around $80 not including the tip.

Go check it out though if close by.

We had a large group come after a funeral and everything was perfect. Wonderful, patient staff, clean restroom, and amazing food! We all left happy with the experience.

Parking: Our large group had to park along the street, but it isn't a busy street so the walk was fine.

Kid-friendliness: High chairs and kids menu available.

Way overpriced! 4 burgers, 1lemonade and a root beer,2waters and no extras. $80 before tip of 11$. 91 dollar lunch! $17 per burger (does come with there potato chips). Chips were really good. Service was not good. When the burger was delivered. I said “oh thought that came with lettuce”? The young lady plainly stated “no it doesn’t” and walked off. The main waitress was not very nice. Don’t go here unless you have deep pockets and want to be treated as a step child. (One piece of lettuce I guess was too over the top for the young lady to offer me) Oh well, love and learn. I don’t live go to that town often anyway. Just thought you should not be shocked to pay San Francisco prices for a burger and get unappreciated while doing it. 😬
