Lisa is amazing server. She did her job so good! The food was delicious and very tasty. I’ve got signature burger and my husband – half ribs! Awesome place! We’ll be back for sure!

Trying to order was a joke. Server was nice but clueless. We tried ordering and they were out of most steaks and BBQ options. The food was warm and bland. They forgot ingredients on 3 out of the 4 meals, are you kidding me? The worst was a server who wasn’t even ours we caught taking fries off the plates and eating them before the food went out, Disgusting. Way overpriced as well. Very disappointing. Do better guys, the potential is absolutely there!

Nice traditional Italian restaurant. The interior is a bit outdated but still cozy. The food was pretty good. We had salmon and mahi mahi plates and it came with soup which was also good. Not too busy on Sunday evening, plenty of parking, and lots of food choices, pizza, steaks, ribs, burgers and more.

The people that work there are very nice.The server was very attentive.The place is clean.. The food leaves a lot to be desired!! The BBQ ribs taste boiled with alot of generic BBQ sauce. No smoke flavor at all. The corn bread is mushy, the baked beans were ok, and the brisket was meh… even the french onion soup was subpar. My son ordered the chicken mushroom pasta and it was dry and flavorless… OVERALL, nice place but food was very disappointing.

Food was amazing! We got texas fries that i 10/10 recommend getting if you want to share with someone. My favorite things from the smokehouse combo platter was definitely the ribs and hot links. The environment was great and again food was delicious im excited to come back!!!

The hubby and I stopped by on game day, drawn in by the aroma of smoked meat coming from the smoker outside. Surprisingly, the parking lot was nearly empty—and so was the bar inside. We grabbed seats at the bar, where only two other guests were seated. Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. The bartender seemed more focused on chatting with the other couple than acknowledging us. When she finally did, she walked away again before taking our order.
We asked for simple, two-ingredient drinks and menus. The drinks were small and underwhelming, and the laminated menus were sticky and splattered—clearly not cleaned between uses.
As we looked around, we couldn’t help but notice the smudged glass doors and windows, which only added to the overall unclean feeling of the place. If this grime is customer facing, what kind of stuff is going on in places we can’t see?
We decided to cut our visit short and not order food. Even paying the tab took longer than it should. We are not sure why, but it looked as though the bartender was struggling with the register—so add faulty equipment or untrained staff to the mix.
Unfortunately, despite the promising smell of BBQ, the experience inside was disappointing—from the service to the cleanliness—this place was just gross.

The food was really good, had the Wagyu Brisket platter and goodness it was heaven on a plate. The meat was so tender and juicy. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

Very bad experience. The server was slow. It wasn’t busy. The food was AWFUL. And lukewarm. My sandwich appeared microwaved and the lettuce was brown. My husbands smoked meatloaf looked and tasted awful. Nothing about this meal was okay except we were hungry so we ate some. Don’t waste your time.

Big disappointment this place. Service was slow and lackadaisical. I ordered the smoked combo plate. The ribs tasted off like they were old and spoiled. They provided a replacement portion, which seemed a bit fresher, but still had an unpleasant smell flavor. Couldn’t eat them. I’ve had lots of ribs and this was the first time I ever had to send them back. There were a couple of salads ordered, the Greek one was good, but apple walnut cranberry salad was mediocre. We got a $10 discount off the tab for the ribs.
Would be a bit concerned eating at this place in case the kitchen is not trustworthy.
