We had a turkey sandwich and a pulled pork sandwich, a cookie and chips included. Both were excellent in this unique restaurant/hardware/boutique. We would definitely return.

Very friendly staff. Food was excellent and you definitely don’t walk away hungry. Brisket, turkey and sausage were all great. Moist, tender and the right amount of smoky flavor. Beans, slaw and potato salad sides were delicious.

Called 2 hours ahead about coming in at 2:30pm when they close at 3pm and they said they'd be open. Got here and was told that they're closed. Why lie?

A wonderful experience! The food was spectacular and the service was second to none. The staff treated us like family and it was a very welcoming environment. Definitely a must stop if in Tucumcari or even just passing through. The po-boy sandwich with brisket and the 3 meat plate was amazing!! Definitely recommend some peach cobbler too! They even have a spectacular outdoor area for larger groups.

I had heard this was a good restaurant for bbq, so we decided to try it. We ordered a four meat platter with 2 brisket portions, turkey, and ribs with beans and macaroni and cheese. The ribs were very tender and good, the turkey was decent, and the brisket was not great (tough and didn't taste good). The macaroni and cheese was good, and the beans were okay. The bread and cookies were good. I doubt we'll return since we were passing through and would probably find another restaurant to try if we return to Tucumcari. If I recommend anything from here, it's the ribs.

This barbecue was a great find! Passing through from PA to AZ, very good pork and brisket sandwiches! The lady at the counter was the sweetest ever! Even the restrooms were meticulous:) Darling store with neat little things.
