Ordered wings to go and saw they were raw. I called to ask if I was able to exchange them for something else since they were raw, was transferred to what Ima guess was a manager whos tone was very rude. I explained the situation again and he talked down to me and said that they are supposed to be pink and that there was no way it could be raw. Told me to come in and show him in such a rude tone I decided to just eat the rest of my food except the wings. So expensive for some raw wings. Not coming here again.

Hands down the best barbecue around. The staff is fantastic, the prices are more than fair, and most importantly the food has me coming back at least once or twice a week. Joe has always been fantastic, always making sure I get exactly what I’m looking for and even has looked out for me more than once with allergies.

My server was Jayda S. The food was well prepared. Given in a timely manner. Restaurant and bathroom was clean. Employees were Courteous to customers. I finally found great macaroni and cheese. Cornbread was excellent! Food portions were appropriate. I will return!
I informed the manager, I frequent restaurants with good service. I enjoyed Jayda S as my hostess.

We went on a Tuesday evening and there was only one other table filled. Lots of takeout. We both had the pulled pork sandwich. It was good with a lot of crispy ends. There is basically no atmosphere. It is a big empty space with some tables and chairs in it. It is a decent local place. If you live nearby, give it a try. Very small selection of beers. Nothing on tap. You order at the counter, you pick up your food at the counter, you fill your own drinks, you bus your own table, but they still prompt you for a tip when you pay. Obviously that happens elsewhere, but it still ticks me off. Yes, the tables are very sticky.

The food was amazing. The only problem I had was that the cornbread was cold. Upon returning it, I was told that all of them was the same temperature but I guess so since it was sliced. The cashier was so nice and knew the menu and the place was clean.

This place has some real good bbq, sides, and awesome customer service. The staff and cooks are friendly serving you with smiles. Our favorite go to is the a half lbs of the brisket and ordering a pick 3 gives you 3 mains of your choice and 1 side, we also order extra sides and a drink our total came up to about 50 bucks with out tip. Our go too is the burnt Ends, cheddar jalapeño sausage and the ribs 5/5 across the bored. The mac and chesse 5/5, slaw5/5, pickles 5/5, cornbread 4/5 we wish the cornbread could be a bit more moist with some butter, it was on the dryer crumbly side but still had good flavor, our favorite sauces were the regular bbq, and mustard 5/5 hands down.
If your from the area or happen to look for some good bbq, stop by and support this business you wont regret it. Remember tip your servers for great service!

Food is exceptional. CLEAN and staff are welcoming and will answer any questions you may have. Pulled pork brisket burnt ends are our favorite meats and the Mac n cheese and fries for sides are killer. We’ve been here twice and are looking forward to a third time. We come all the way from Rensselaer IN.

Loved the rib tips, mac, cornbread and sauces! The pulled pork was perfect and i loved all the free pickles and onions. The sausage and chicken were good but a little dry. Waited about 25 mins for our order but they seemed to have a ton of to-go orders. Can’t wait to try more.

Very cool new BBQ restaurant. I had the beef brisket sandwich, which was on special (see photo). It was moist, tender, juicy, and delicious. There was plenty of meat on the sandwich and the bun used was perfect. I tasted 3 of their sides – the Mac N cheese, baked beans and potato salad. The Mac N cheese and baked bean (not a big fan of either) was delicious. The potato salad was good, but nothing to write home about. The service was welcoming and pleasant. All in all a wonderful experience. I will definitely be going back and bringing friends.
