Went to have a drink in the sun. Before saying hi or taking our drink order or anything polite asked for our ID's. I asked for a rum and coke was told they don't carry SPIRITS only beer and wine. When I tried to express how I was confused because I have had cocktails here before (and could see mixers and bottles behind her) the bartender proceeded to mock me. Not sure if she just didn't want to serve us because we're 23 but if that's the case maybe don't bartend in a college town? Attached cocktail menu to show they carry spirits just don't allow everyone to enjoy them ? Hoping management sees in order to prevent this from happening to other guests trying to enjoy their day :)

Good foods, we loved the ribs and their house barbecue sauce is delicious. The corn bread have pieces of corn in it, which can be hit or miss for some people. The macaroni salad is just okay. Service is good, cute outdoor seating area with heaters for the winter.

Have been here multiple times in the past and had a great time, no issues. that said, I took my wife and two boys here over the weekend to celebrate and we sat for 20 minutes(not exaggerating) without a server even acknowledging us. We had to get our own menus and water from the bartender and asked to order with her as well as no one was coming to our table. Bartender told us that she would send a server out to us but that never happened. We ended up leaving without even being said “hi” to by any staff. Multiple tables came in after us as well, some with small children, who also were never acknowledged. I used to serve tables and tend bar so I’m aware of the struggles restaurant staff can sometimes go through but this experience left a bad taste in my mouth and not sure if I would take my family here again in fear that we will wait forever just to be seen. When I was a bartender/server you actually have to serve people in order to make money(tips). Maybe their salaries are just so high they don’t have to worry about that.

Two stars, and only because our waiter was nice and the patio has a nice vibe. Food was absolutely awful. We split a wedge salad which was just ok. I got the 1/2 rack of ribs with Mac &Cheese. The ribs were dry AF and the Mac was not seasoned at all. Salt is not a thing in that kitchen. The BBQ sauce was anything but BBQ sauce. As bad as my food was, my daughter ordered and that was worse. She got the combo BBQ plate which came with some dried ass bird, 1/2 of the same dried out ribs I got, and pulled pork that looked and tasted like a ball of hair. Awful. Truly. I got a Moscow Mule that tasted like sweat in a cup and I promptly sent it back to be remade. It came back and tasted like a cup of sweat with lime. My daughter got a margarita and it was ok. Just ok. All this and the food came on plastic plates like it came from a university cafeteria. Don't do it. Don't eat here. Keep it moving.

They pulled pork nachos were a miss Just tried little pieces of old dried our pork ) Very skimpy on the meat !!$ Local moco was a hit But my brother-in-law asked for no onions, and there's a lot of onions on it so took 10 minutes to scrape them all off Wife for the blt (skimpy on the bacon!

Please don't eat at this place. The service was great. Our server was so nice and helpful and very attentive. The food on the other hand was terrible. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich and there is maybe a spoonful of pulled pork on it. My brother ordered a tri-tip And he said it tasted very tough. My mom ordered soup and she said it taste like it came out of a can. Also was charged $4 per drink, on the receipt, it said "Mexican coke" but they were can coke. Other than that this seems like it could be a cool place to go. Don't eat the food.

Thank you for no longer allowing dogs at your location! I can eat in peace, and places without dogs are so much more sanitary.

Recently revisited after not having the best previous experiences over a year ago. Happy to say the food and service have greatly improved. Will definitely be back.
