When I say 5 stars, I mean it. The food was delicious, the service was great, and it was just a great time. Our server John was the best. We don’t get out this way much, but this will definitely be a spot that we visit again. If you really want a great meal, get the ribs and potato salad. Absolutely phenomenal all the way around.

Came here with a buddy for lunch. Solid little spot. Cool vibe inside. Service is a little slow, but the experience is very enjoyable. Everyone is friendly. The fried green tomatoes were really good. The bbq sauce in the shorter bottle is also excellent. Prices are on the higher side, appetizers are $10+, but it’s worth the money. I’d definitely come again and try some other stuff.
