We were in for the first time tonight, and will definitely be back. Food was delicious, great portion sizes and very reasonable prices! We tried the family bbq, it was a lot of food for the price. I didn't even get to try the ribs, I was so full from the brisket, sausage and pulled pork. Service was also great, Kim? I think, was attentive without hovering, and really talked up the kitchen staff when we said how good the food was. Overall, great dinner!

Great food, even better people. Wing Night is awesome and weekend brunch is slamming.

Been meaning to try this place for a while, the food was excellent! Had the fish tacos with a side of spinach salad, my friend had the meatloaf...very generous portions, and you could tell nothing was premade. I will definitely be back!

This is the place to go if you are sick of spending a day smoking your own meats. The food is fantastic and it's priced reasonably for the quality.

Loved it.

It's been a minute since we've been here but it never disappoints. Fantastic, fast, friendly service and damn fine barbeque.

For the amount of times I’ve come for trivia and something smoked to eat, they have a great menu and the quality and efficient service is pretty consistent.
For food I shared the smokehouse combo which had three choices: full wings (with their hottest sauce + blue cheese), candied pork belly and some brisket. It came with a side and cornbread and we got the mac’n cheese.
It’s exactly of what you’d expect and sometimes a little better, delicious. The pork is always great! Cornbread was good, but if you like a grittier texture, this is softer. Can’t speak on the mac’n cheese much if it’s made in house, but it could definitely have some toasted breadcrumbs or extra cheese on top to add to it.
They have a lot of events, and usually pretty busy, sometimes they sell out of their best dishes sooner than later and they don’t take reservations from what I’ve gathered. But they have big tables and I haven’t had to wait for one before but have come close.

Kid-friendliness: I’ve been during lunch with children, easily accommodating. I’ve seen kids are supper and bust times too, no issues and they do have a kids menu.

Pretty rare I'm disappointed going here.
I've had many different things off the menu, it is still hard to narrow it down some days.
Southern Belle tends to be the goto.

Awful awful awful. Terrible service waitresses are so rude and only care about regulars, they just ignore you until the regulars don’t need them anymore. They let them cut in line and they’re just as rude as the servers. They mess up the order everytime and the one time I pointed out that the nachos were cooked and we asked for them to be uncooked (a regular option they offer on the menu) they got super snarky and told me I wrote too much in the special instructions (I just wrote it very nicely and told them if they couldn’t make the substitution I asked for that it was fine) but apparently they couldn’t read all of that. Just picked up and waited an extra 15 minutes while the waitresses moved me out of my waiting spot so they could chat together at the bar where I was standing. Even better, we brought the pickup order back and they hadn’t read a single special instruction that we left and we FOUND A HAIR IN THE SALAD. I always leave a 20% tip no matter what, everywhere, and this was the first time I only tipped %10, got back and realized even that was way too much. The food has never been good enough for them to treat non-regulars like this. Never ever returning and spreading the word to others thinking about trying it. Colby was nice.

Service was ok, however food was either overcooked or all tasted similar.
Hidden up charges that weren't mentioned or on the menu.
And music was very all over the place......drinks were good

Great atmosphere and food selections- and of course ‘liquids’ (from the big names to those better local brews) Staff very attentive to a large gathering too! Thanks ‘S’.
