Reviews
Pros:I liked to the bluegrass music and the place is pretty nice. Not bad sweet tea,
Cons: The pork has a lot of fat in it, something that is supposed to be slow cooked over wood, is not supposed to have globs of fat. The pork did not even have a strong smokey taste to it. Also, they were VERY skimpy on the meat. BBQ sauce was OK.
Would not go again.
My hamburger came out not tasting real well; looked at it and discovered it was actually raw for the most part. I returned it to the wait station; it was promptly taken and replaced with a burger to-go, but I lost all my french fries.
My husband ordered the brisket plate. He was disappointed that the BBQ is actually vinegar-based. Being from the deep south, and with the sauce described as “Southern Belle” sauce, he incorrectly assumed the BBQ must then be tomato-based. Wrong.
Maybe next time it will be better.
Service did a great job attending to our needs, and was well versed on the menus when asked to make recommendations.
Ambiance (4/5): The restaurant is themed nicely, with a rustic/country feel. License plates, chalk board menu, etc. It could have been slightly more clean (with crumbs on the floor and a few tables un-bussed). But I wasn’t around long-enough to get a sense of how fast they would clean their tables.
Service (5/5): The waitress/counter clerk was very friendly. I ordered a BBQ pulled-pork sandwich asked her what her what the best sides were. Her favorites were Mac and Cheese, hushpuppies, and broccoli salad. I decided on hushpuppies and baked beans. She said they were out of baked beans for the day (a little disappointed, I ordered mac and cheese instead). The food came out quickly (about 8 minutes) and hot (even after a 15 minute drive home). Also, to my surprise, they included THREE sides instead of just two, putting in the baked beans (assuming they were just made). Very impressed with their “above and beyond” approach.
Food: (4.5/5): The BBQ was perfect texture, tender, but not mushy. The taste was phenomenal, with a vinegar based BBQ sauce, slightly zesty with a hint of spice. The sauce was not overbearing, and the natural smoke flavor was brought out of the meat. The mac and cheese was incredible (although my wife said it was a bit salty for her liking). The hushpuppies were home-made and had a great natural flavor of onion/celery. The baked beans were amazing, with a bit of zest/spice and a real pieces of pork. My only complaint was that the sweet tea was a little too sweet for me (but I like my sweet tea cut in half usually, so it may be fine for other sweat tea lovers). The flavor of the tea was good, not old or spoiled.
All-in-all I would give my experience a 5/5. Very impressed with service, atmosphere, speed and quality.
