    This place was great, took 4 kids with me and they each ate their entire plates. Which is rare at sit down restaurants, as they are picky eaters. I got their loaded fries which were phenomenal, I really enjoyed them thoroughly. The waitress was on her own, but she did an awesome job. I honestly prefer a chill atmosphere where I'm not being asked if I like my food while I have a mouth full, its appreciated. Will for sure be going back here!

    I came in after a long work day just to grab some decent bbq and a drink or two. The service I received from my waitress, Alissa, was top tier. My food was amazing. The brisket and ribs were fantastic and I was happily surprised that they have fried okra. As far as drinks go, I normally drink beer, but the Bartender, Booker, made me a couple specialty drinks off the menu that were delicious. 10/10 recommend this place if you want great food, great drinks, and great vibes.

    If I could give this place less then 1 star I would. They were not busy at all. I had the pulled pork salad the pork wes so bad I had to pull it off my salad. My husband asked what was good the so called server said the combo plate. Mac n cheese beans and 1 super small peice of brisket. I asked him if he ordered a child's plate. Ordered a plan hamburger for grandson it came with lettuce tomatoes onions mustard and ketchup. The server never came back to see how anything was or did ever ask if we needed anything. I had to go to get my kids drinks after 10min of waiting on them. My husband and I never leave a place without tipping the staff. But in this case we didn't tip anything. I have never had such poor service or such bad food in my life. DON'T GO HERE THE BBQ IS THE WORST

    Do yourself a favor and go someplace else. We should’ve looked at previous reviews. Food sucked. Mac n cheese sauce was broke. Ribs and brisket cold. We sat at the bar. It was not busy. Bartender dropped menus and when he came back only took one of our orders (2of us). We should’ve left right then. Just a complex disaster. Atmosphere gets two stars because the lights were on (and that was the best part of this place. Seriously, do not waste your time.
