  • Good, solid barbecue. Had the ribs, smoked sausage, mac and cheese and spicy fried green beans. The latter and all the sides are really outstanding. The ribs are St. Louis style, and the sauces they have are really yummy, especially the smokey. The brisket was the only disappointing part. We got it sliced and it was a bit dry. The service is attentive and friendly, the place is homey and welcoming.

  • Called in a next-day catering order for my work crew of (15) & thankfully they were able to accommodate. I arrived a few minutes early to pick up and everything was perfectly fresh, even waiting 1 more minute for the last dish to finish. The staff helped bring the order to my car and were polite & professional. There was enough for everyone to have two plates as well as a to-go container. Well worth the price for that alone. Regardless of value, the food was delicious. Everyone loved the corn fritters, seasonal veg, and especially the smoked sausage. Other meats and sides were also delicious. The restaurant itself seemed well kept with great customer service. I was eyeing some of the orders on tables and will definitely be back to try.

  • I had the Beast Wich (sliced brisket, ham, sausage, fried green beans on toast). It was so good. The BBQ sauces were good. I mixed the sweet & mild to get the taste I wanted. Fried green beans were spicy. I want to go back now.

  • The food is out standing! Huge fluffy baked potato, the sweet tea is the perfect sweetness without being syrup, wait staff is attentive and polite, and the brisket was killer! Clean, neat, good food and good atmosphere!

  • my boyfriend and I came here while we were driving through. Everything was so good, we got a 3 meat plate with Ribs, chopped brisket, and jalapeño cheddar smoked sausage. For our sides we got the spicy fried green beans, and fried okra. The ribs were BOMB, they were probably the best we’ve ever had. They were about an inch thick, and super juicy, we didn’t even feel the need for bbq sauce on them. The sausage and brisket were just as good! The fried spicy green beans were so good!! The ribs were so good we had to get some to go!

  • We were out running errands and stopped for lunch. They had the best brisket I have had in a long time. Our server was very nice and recommended the spicy green beans which were so good! Its a very nice place and we were served quickly.

  • Got a summer salad with blueberries, pecans, spring greens and smoked chicken which was wonderful! I appreciated having a different and lighter option. Hubs had traditional BBQ which he really enjoyed - he got mashed potatoes as a side which were OK but he raved about the brisket, chicken and beans. My son got a fried chicken sandwich, it was also outstanding. Well fried and seasoned with crispy bacon. He got fried okra as a side and they were tasty, fresh and hot. Definitely will go back next time we visit the kiddo - wish it was in our home town.
