Loved the food and all the service people. They're great. Did you know they will smoke a turkey for you for Thanksgiving? There smoked turkey is moist and tender.

I went here a few years ago and it was great. This time was terrible. It took 4 of us almost two hours to get seated get food ordered and brought to us. The place was not busy at all. They were out of brisket completely. The music was extremely loud. The waitress kept waking past us saying she's sorry and she'll be right back with us. It was absolutely ridiculous. Not ever going back here. This was at 1 pm to 3 pm on a Saturday.

We didn't even get to go in because they were closed for a private event. What a bummer because my fiance has been trying to take me there for a while. ☹️

I've tried this place twice and just did not like the food. Chicken was dry and for the price it was very disappointing to not get great food.

Food was pretty s---. Flavorless gray meat ribs and dry miserable brisket. No smoke ring and no bark. Not Texas BBQ. The beans were strange. These things had so much fat content the broth was milky. The BBQ sauce was okay. Cool looking place, though. There may be potential at some point.

I didn't eat much but the coors light was cooked just right.

Good food and service. I really enjoy the sliced brisket, turkey, and ribs. They also have stubborn sofa which I personally love. It is bbq so expect to pay 20-25 dollars including tip but it's a good place to treat myself.
