    Pretty decent bbq spot. Got the burnt ends, brisket platter, smoked artichoke dip, and crispy Brussels. The Brussels were very crispy - too dry. The burnt ends were inconsistent, some were dry and hard and others were buttery and fell apart. The brisket platter was good, it was all too much food. sweet potato fries and slaw were good. Most things were lacking flavor for us. The smoked artichoke dip was the best. The in house chips were great! Our server, Josh, was very nice. He kept closing the door for us since it was very windy and we got cold.

    Really great service and vibes. We highly recommend the burnt ends and the stem cider beer.

    I really like the west end tavern. Lucas is a wiz behind the bar, and the kitchen makes baller wings. Always a great and delicious experience.

    The shepherds pie was good, but the appetizer (Korean bbq skewer) and side (onion rings) were definitely the best part of the meal. The cocktail was also really good.
