I can't say enough about this restaurant! The only issue with them not having a line out the door is their location. But once people find this jewel they will be packed non-stop.The food is AMAZING!!!The portions are huge, I couldn't stop eating!The Turkey Leg was huge and so delicious we didn't even use the sauce that came on the side, it was smoky & fall off the bone tender, with an excellent dry rub. The sides come out in separate bowls, so they're perfect to pass around. This was the best cabbage, cooked just right with just a hint of vinegar.I stole the potato salad from my girlfriend ?, I loved the sweet relish flavor. And the Spicy Slaw was definitely a treat.Absolutely nothing needed salt or pepper as everything was perfectly seasoned.Even the other customers were friendly & social.The waitress was so proud of the food they served & was so happy with how much we were enjoying our meals.If this place was in Atlanta, Roswell, or Alpharetta it would be the talk of the town.

Me and wife went here by accident, and thank God we did. Everything was great. If you want good Bar-BQ, that is worth the time and money, I strongly recommend this restaurant.

This place is a hidden jewel in Grayson in Gwinnett county! I had no clue it existed. I was delightfully surprised upon my entrance to discover how intimate it was. The ambiance and service was impeccable, and I will be returning. If you want to hold a small intimate party for about 30 people, this is definitely the place. Please patronize this hidden gem.

We had the pleasure of dining at The AfterTaste Smokehouse and Grille today. The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy. The owner was helpful and friendly. Our food was amazing. Everything we ate was amazing. The cauliflower is a must. Lightly battered and fried just right. We also had the rib tips, lamb chops and fried chicken. Great flavor! We can't wait to come back and try the other menu items. Unfortunately, no pics, we were enjoying the moment! Don't let that stop you, you gotta check them out!

If I could give 10 stars I would. Omg is all I can say. I had the turkey legs, cabbage and macaroni and cheese and my date had lamb lollipops, candied sweet potatoes and green beans. When I say I thought my grandma was in the kitchen I mean that. The atmosphere, food, music and service we top tier. I will definitely be back!!

This was my first time here. It is hard to find beef ribs in GA period, let alone good ones. Not only do they have them but they were Great. Tender and seasoned all the way through - as they should be.Then they introduced me to turkey ribs - didnt know that existed. Also very good.Finally, some good beef ribs on this side of GA. Will definitely be back!- AV

The food was not good. For almost $20, I would have expected freshly beaded shrimp and not previously frozen, coconut shrimp. The cabbage was not cooked or seasoned, and the rice had a funny taste to it. But my dad always said thar one should order the type of food the restaurant is known for, and this is a BBQ spot, and I shouldn't have gotten shrimp. I'll think about trying the food again, but this first impression, was not it.

This place was so AMAZING!!! They were so accommodating, and able to cater to every single one of all our MANY needs as a family of 6. I went with a large group it’s a nice and snug restaurant, it may be small in size but it’s big in HEART and the friendly , charming atmosphere makes up for it tremendously. You truly feel like you’re right at home and you can just relax and unwind with the comfort of a delicious, delightful meal! You can tell that the people of this restaurant have heart and soul , they were extremely nice and welcoming. Not to mention the food was absolutely EXCEPTIONAL, every single ingredient made fresh and cooked to their delectable perfection. I have zero complaints, my only complaint is that we couldn’t have everything on that menu LOL. TREAT YOURSELF WHEN YOU HAVE THE CHANCE!
