Food was AMAZING! Very rarely do I go to a restaurant and EVERYTHING we ate was great. We got a platter for 2 that included 3 meats and 3 sides. Portions were great and it was a great deal for the money. Gave us the option of trying a lil bit of everything from the menu. We got pork ribs, beef brisket and the half chicken with cornbread, waffle sweet potato fries & Mac & cheese. Still thinking about that Mac & chese to this day! Wish I got a to go plate lol. There was enough food to make us full plus take home leftovers. I will recommend this place to everyone! Only thing I would change is I would've opted for a bigger table since we got a whole platter. It took up the entire table lol

Great bbq, ambience and service. Beautiful building interior with high ceilings. Service was great, very friendly. Would definitely go back. Husband had gone a few weeks before with the guys and highly recommended we go together. Must get the ribs and brisket. Started with the KFC cauliflower, Shishito peppers and burnt pork ends (pork belly). All was delicious!
