    First visit to this establishment. Food was good. BBQ sauces were a bit different than use to. Nice to have a variety of flavors to choose from. Service was great and nice open environment.

    The first thing we noticed was that basically all of the patio furniture is one wrong move away from falling apart completely. We felt like we had to sit still and during the time we were there a table next to us had the arm of her chair pop off. Our server was super sweet and knew her stuff. She did a great job. We got two drinks, both were good. The smoked mozz was good but it’s just out of a very cheap freezer bag and dusted with dry rub in a way you could easily do at home. The spinach salad had a completely different set of toppings than was advertised so that was less than satisfactory. The brisket dip had the potential to be great, the meat had good flavor but the bread was chewy and hard to bite and the meat was luke warm at best. Chips were completely unseasoned. All in all it’s definitely not a place we’ll likely return any time soon.

    This is easily one of my new favorite restaurants. The atmosphere was great. The music is loud enough to hear and enjoy but not too loud that you can’t have a conversation. The waitress was attentive. The cocktails were delicious. And the number one reason I will return - the brisket is absolutely one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. I don’t know how it could be any better. Awesome place! Can’t wait to go back. Just sorry we live 5 hours away.

    Great food! Live entertainment was great but a bit too loud for dinner hour. We will definitely eat here again.

    Came in early for brunch and was not crowded. Had trouble getting more drinks as there was only one server who had to take care of restaurant, bar area, and outside tables. Food took a long time, but was good and hot when we got it. Seemed understaffed for a Saturday afternoon with multiple events going on nearby

    Most items on the menu are expensive for little value. BBQ sauces are extremely watered down and have little taste. Service was okay, for the hour and a half or so we were there only one refill was issued and we were waiting for a while for the check. Got there as soon as it opened so it wasn’t super busy, but the table we were sat at seemed unclean, crumbs were visible. The food itself wasn’t bad, but again, not much for the expense.

    We came for the lunch on a Sunday at 1:00 the restaurant was not crowded(first time there). Three of us got the chili which was very meaty and had a good taste, just not real hot. Two people got ribs and a few of the bones were tender but the rest of it was dry. One person had smoked quarter chicken (tender in parts and dry in other parts). We had baked beans and macaroni and cheese it had a good taste but again not hot. The corn bread muffin and butter was good. Another person got the brunch and the bacon was not cooked all the way. It was a nice space but it was expensive ($74 for 2 cups of chili, 1 half rack ribs with baked beans/French fries; smoke quarter chicken with macaroni and cheese/cornbread, with iced tea and water).
