Our server was very sweet, and the food was really good, but the bartender seems a little sidetracked. The younger man blonde/reddish hair and piercings. My friends sat and waited at a not busy bar for a very long time until he finally got their drink order, and then they proceeded to wait an extremely long time to finally pay. I had to get his attention through other means. He just really needs to be aware of his surroundings if he is considered a bartender

I'm sure I reviewed this place when I eat there but some how I don't see my review. I was there with the premiere trucks sales guys for lunch. I had the open faced pulled pork sandwich it was recommended by our waiter. Idk when it was pulled or when it was smoked but it tasted like a week before it was the nastiest bbq I'd ever had its been awhile and I still ain't got the taste out of my mouth. Just order something else the bbq is nasty

Four guests for dinner around 545. Ordered soft drinks, apps, and dinner. Apps took ~45 minutes to come out with food another 45 minutes after that. Food was pretty decent, but the wait was simply far too long. Drink service (initial and refills) was slow.

The food was subpar from the usual. Slow to receive and Luke warm. Over salted.

Hostess was pleasant and attentive at entry but to busy on her phone to speak or even look up when we left. Appetizer pretzel was gummy and baked brie was cold, rest of baked brie platter was good. My Dr. Pepper pork shank was cold to the bone as were the mashed potatoes underneath it. Husband's fish and chips were good but nothing special. Creme brulee for dessert was ice cold. The water tasted fishy as well. Our server, Marshall, was very attentive and knowledgeable. And upon leaving we walked, without any warning, into something involving 4 police officers and restaurant patrons sitting in a covered area outside the restaurant that made us very uneasy with the raised voices. Experience was not worth the $140.00 or the hour+ drive to get there.

Hannah and Gerard were the absolute best. Ribs and brisket were better than we've had in Virginia. Give Hannah and Gerard free ribs for a month and cauliflower!

According to the internet you are supposed to be currently open. Upon arriving, it looks like a ghost town. Happy Holidays

The ribeye was cooked perfectly, but unseasoned which is surprising since the veg and potatoes were perfectly seasoned.

Went late on a weeknight when it was pretty empty. Food was very good, although they were out of 1 item we wanted. Server named Hannah was excellent and friendly.
