food was good! I got the bbq nachos and they were definitely big enough for 2 meals. service was alright lol nothing special but the girl taking orders was nice and our food came out fast. the seating, I will say, is limited but the vibes are cozy

Portion sizes were awesome, friendly quick service, and a quaint spot to eat. Seating is limited, but that somewhat adds to the "spot".

$22 for BBQ Nachos1. It was cold. Not even room temp2. Chips were stale3. Box was 90% stale chips 10% cold meat.I’d be pleased with this place before but come on. What you just gave me is refund worthy. ?

Food is very good But they run out of many options quick so you have to go earlier in the day.

I am so disappointed. The location is up the street from my home & after 3 times of screwing my order up, they didn't offer nothing complimentary nor discounted. The staff was rude and not understanding. I walked to this location often and now because of my experience, me or my family will never eat here again. Even after knowing each time I walked they didn't resolve my problem properly. This property need to do better. I still can't believe how unprofessional my experience was after being a loyal customer at some point.

Fav BBQ place in town. Recommend the brisket sandwich or the scatterload. The buns are delicious. It can be a little loud in there with the TVs but overall it's a great spot. And they have Diet Dr. Pepper!
