“Amazing food! My family and I went here yesterday during our trip to Myrtle Beach based on some recommendations I saw online...and this place exceeded all expectations!! All of us were beyond satisfied with our meals. Delicious flavors and good portion sizes too! We said we will come back to Myrtle Beach (from PA) just to come back here 😂. Great service, nice atmosphere, and the food is absolutely amazing! We wanted to get photos of our meals but we were so excited to dig in when it came out that we forgot all about photos! Go check this place out and see for yourself.“

“Really decent barbeque place if you're looking for a simple bite to eat without having to hit the major touristy spots. The portion sizes are great, and the price isn't terrible. I'm not going to judge too critically on the barbeque, because I chose to have brisket, and I wasn't in Texas. However, they offer an array of different trays, desserts and the flavors are really solid. The onion ring was also an unique thing that I haven't seen elsewhere (it was massive) and I do recommend that as part of any purchase you make.“
