Went for brunch on Sunday - we had the Loaded Breakfast Tots, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and a few breakfast Caesars.The tots had a delicious mix of egg, red onion, house sauce and brisket. The breakfast plate had nicely cooked eggs to go along with bacon and freshly made home fries. The Caesars were a mix of smoky and savoury.Service was top notch, and reasonably priced for the portions.

Great family evening. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed a selection of starters (jalapeño poppers, cauliflower bombs and burnt ends). We also had a mixed selection of main courses. The ribs were particularly tasty. Very friendly service. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Chill ambience, with the dimmed lights. Had an enjoyable dinner here! The BBQ platter is a great way of trying a bit of everything. Meat was tender and popping with flavour.Service was top notch. Explained everything with detail, the different options, and gave us time and space without rush. Amazing place for an amazing time.

Phenomenal food, service, atmosphere and value. I've been a few times now and everything is amazing, including the sides, and I always have leftovers for two more meals

Our hostess was efficient and warm. The food was a decent portion and price. The noise level was not satisfactory at all. It is not recommended for a couple's romantic setting for a special occasion but will recommend it for a night out with friends

The food and ambiance were fantastic. As soon as you walk in the smell of barbecue makes it clear you are in the right place! Unfortunately, they were out of burgers and burnt ends and the service was decent, but definitely didn't give the famous Southern hospitality. The prices are more fair, and the portions are generous. It's absolutely worth a visit.

Wonderful meal during family holiday visit. My only surprise was a jalopeno pepper in my coleslaw! My companion thought that his sandwich was very tasty. He was intrigued with the meat platters and said he would order that on his next visit.

Very good upscale Southern BBQ-inspired food here. I had some excellent fried chicken, and at their other location have tried some of the other meats which were equally good. I also love the attention to sides and veg — the Brussels sprouts were crisp, tangy and just amazing with the accompanying sauce, and my friends had very gorgeous-looking salads that ate like a meal. Given that I ate my leftovers as lunch the next day, I think the prices are really reasonable. The cocktails are also inventive and well balanced. And the service on the night I went with friends was excellent — friendly and funny but not overbearing. Overall, recommended and probably one of the best places to eat in the Market area.
