Great bbq place in Memphis! Casual vibe and friendly service. Order at counter and then food is brought out to you. We had ribs, chicken, pork, potato salad and banana pudding all excellent. Banana pudding is a must!! Ribs had great char. My favorite is bbq sauce is available in 3 flavors and warmed. Definitely recommend giving it a try.

Great bbq, great service, and good location in downtown! The lady at the register recommended the sampler platter which gave you a little bit of everything! The smoked wings were amazing! When I return I will be getting a platter of them!

The menu they have online is a lie. It says a half slab of ribs and 2 sides is $19. Pretty affordable. When you go to the restaurant though is about $29 dollars which is insane and a wild mark up.

Bbq delicious! Brisket was my favorite. Didn’t like the greens taste like Glory greens out the can

The ribs are extremely tender, served with a distinct smoky sauce.

The prices are relatively quite high, but make no mistake these ribs are a definite standout comparable to the best joints in Kansas City or Houston

Driest brisket in the country. Ribs ok, nothing special nor any better than Costco ribs. Substantially overrated food, just surviving on reputation alone.

I’m sure there’s better places in town than this. Suggest looking into other options

The food was amazing. I’d drive down from Louisiana anytime to dine here again.
