    The food wasn’t warm at all. The potato salad had uncooked potatoes. I went in here expecting Texas BBQ, but it was nowhere near even edible. The food was pretty bad and overpriced.

    We had a change of servers a few minutes into service. That caused a hiccup in our drinkand appetizer order. After that everything was outstanding.

    I chose wings that were too spicy and weren’t traditional buffalo sauce, and battered cauliflower was too thick, I expected tempura style. The grilled cheese was great! I know from a past experience coming here, the apricot glaze chicken, the peanut slaw, baked beans, and the banana pudding is delicious!

    The restaurant was kinda empty, took a minute for someone to greet us. We were able to sit anywhere. We ordered chicken wings, ribs, & brisket burnt ends, and it was a bit dry and overcooked. Overall, it was ok. Staff was nice.

    The food and service was great. But the noise was a problem for holding a conversation.
