Very posh place to eat. Service was great. Availability was great on a Friday night. Food was amazing. Would recommend.

Plate #1
Baby Back Ribs 9.5/10 (Off the Bone)
Not Your Ordinary Mac and Cheese 8.5/10 (needed a little more seasoning)
Tequila “Barbecue” Beans 10/10 (Perfect)

Plate #2
Mr. Jacks Crispy Chicken Platter 9.5/10 (Great amount of chicken and flavor)
Not Your Ordinary Mac and Cheese...
August 2025
Steak (NY Strip) & Fries tasted fantastic. When they brought the steak out the waitress asked if I could verify the steak was cooked to my liking, it was not. So they took it back and made it right. That goes a long way with me. Crab cakes were good. I don't understand why crab cakes is not on the menu at the Quarry location on the east side. Can you fix this?

Team you have to try the ice cream cake. YES it will make your back big, but your taste...

I have no idea why this restaurant does not have higher rating, food is way better that some 4.7 places. I mean just smashed potatoes alone deserves better rating, it’s best I had for long time, and just simple broccoli is delicious and maybe even pressure cooked
