This is hands down the worst barbecue place I have ever been to in my life, and I do not say that lightly.

Let me be very clear. The chicken was phenomenal, and every salad they offered was excellent. Credit where credit is due. Unfortunately, that is where the positives end.

The main barbecue meats, including the brisket and the ribs, were absolutely terrible. Not just dry. Not just poorly seasoned. They tasted spoiled, to the point where I seriously questioned whether the meat was safe to serve. I have eaten barbecue across all 48 contiguous states, and barbecue is almost exclusively what I eat when I dine out. I know what good barbecue is, I know what average barbecue is, and this was neither. This was unacceptable.

When the core product of a barbecue restaurant, the smoked meats, is this bad, it raises serious concerns. Something feels off about this operation, and that is deeply troubling.

Shame on the owners for allowing food like this to leave the kitchen, and shame on the staff for serving it. Barbecue is not something you fake or cut corners on. If you cannot get the meats right, you should not be in the barbecue business at all.

I would strongly caution anyone considering this place. The salads may be great, and the chicken may surprise you, but the barbecue itself is a massive failure.

Got chicken from a drive-thru they were doing. We got 2 dinners and the chicken was pink. Took them back and got 2 new dinners and they were pink. The person that was cooking said that the chicken was cooked just fine. If I could show you a picture it is still pink

I always go to their pop ups and buy food and it’s usually good but this time when they were in south rossler plaza we got food poisoning. All of us. Either the chicken was bad or the grills weren’t cleaned properly either way we all got sick

I bought the full rack of ribs, and they were not done on the ends. I paid $27 you'd think that they would have been done. The ends were raw meat didn't pull away from bones it just hung on through the bones. And it was pink I'd like to know if the barbecue ribs were pork or beef?

We've used them several times for our fundraisers and they are always prepared, great with communication, have everything we need, and are always as helpful as can be. The food NEVER disappoints!

It was decent. Had a chicken and six half ribs. I think I could have waited for fresher chicken..mine was a bit dry. Liked the dining music but every other table was not cleaned. Maybe I'll stop by on a Monday and try the pulled pork! 😋

The food is ok, but very expensive. Meats are good, Mac salad decent, Mac & cheese is nasty. I'm just not a fan.
