I am updating my review based on the prompt and courteous response from management. They really know how to treat customers!! Love that!! This place has great food and drinks (full bar) and the most amazing brisket around. Get it any way your palate prefers, lean, fatty, or mixed. Everything my husband and I have ever tried has been super delicious. It is one of our favorite go-to places for date nights. We will be back, again and again. ?

Y’all ought to be ashamed of yourself. What happened to y’all. Wings so dry I may have cracked a tooth. I can’t even finish them

Friends recommended this place. It was very clean and quaint. The brisket was the best I’ve ever had and the waffle cornbread is to die for. Price wise it borders on pricey and the service was just a tad bit off ( needed refills) but would definitely eat there again.

What a disaster. Imagine hearing about how good the brisket is because they specialize in brisket. Get there and they are out of brisket early in the day. That‘a poor management. I had to settle for some pink chicken. Disappointed to say the least!

Probably the worst food I've ordered in Memphis and nearby areas. Passed this place a few times and said "oh this place looks fancy, I've got to try this". Dismayingly I placed a pickup order. The Brisket or so called Brisket nachos tasted like blue corn nachos with cheap can chili with 4-5 oinky Brisket fat in it. Absolutely horrible and certainly not worth more than $5!!! The brussel sprouts were wayyyy too tart and bitter with no taste. The chicken salad sandwich was tasteless. Kroger has better chicken salad than this.Summary....I could have picked up grocery store items that taste better than this. Obviously the cooks are culinary drop outs or online culinary failure. I'm in awe that this place has any good reviews and the bad reviews I certainly understand. Definitely my worst dining experience in the area.FYI...the mini container of supposed Brisket (aka chili with fat parts) I came separate of the nachos but I did not get a photo of it

We had a party of 10-12 tonight and the food was terrible! We left most of it on the table. If you're going to charge high dollar prices for your menu items then you better have high quality food to match.

Ordered brisket Al la cart about 12 lbs. Coming from Tx. This was the closest you can get. Very moist and a beautiful smoke ring! Available in lean or fatty cuts, delicious!

In town for work and made a return visit to this location (first trip was in spring 2021). Overall the food was good and the service from our waitress, Lillian, was great. I ordered the brisket mixed with both fatty and lean bits but it seemed mainly lean and dry. Still had good flavor though and will certainly return when in town.

The service was excellent! LaDonna was very friendly and professional! I ordered the 3 meats meal which included brisket , burnt ends & smoked sausage. My sides were macaroni and cheese, brussel spouts & waffle cornbread. I also had bread pudding with French vanilla ice cream. I will most definitely go back!Vegetarian options: They had a variety of vegetables.Kid-friendliness: There where several families present with their children. They have a great kids menu.Parking: Plenty of parking spaces as well as handicap parking.

I am a little disappointed- burnt ends were very dry. Kettle chips were were warmed Lays with some S&P. The coleslaw is as oily as pungent. Sandwiches were Ok. Children's applesauce had a VERY bad flavor. Not convinced it wasn't bad. I don't believe I need return trip.
Came here do to the reviews and as usual the "collective" did not let us down!! Had the burnt tips w/Mac & cheese and it was the bomb. But the kicker was the pecan crumble for dessert. Holy cr@p it was amazing. We will be back!!

The kitchen has black mold in the walls seeping out onto the floor and the cooking equipment. (Yes I’ve seen pictures from their own employees) Which they only clean when the health department comes by for an inspection once or twice a year. They never clean their bathrooms but maybe once a month, still have the same dirt clumps on the floor from a month ago. They just recently hired a new bartender that ignores his customers to chat with his friends the whole time. He had six out of seven customers at his bar with empty glasses who didn’t get service for 30 full minutes because Hunter was too busy talking to his one friend (the only person at the bar with a full glass). The managers don’t even care when a paying customer has an issue with their service or the cleanliness of their restaurant. If you say anything is below standard, they just kick you out for (and I quote) “overstepping” instead of addressing the concern in a professional manner or offering to fix the problem. The only good hard workers that make your experience decent are Tom, Brandon, Mallorie, and Jason. Everyone else isn’t even worth a visit. Patrice and Renee (the new managers) and Hunter (the new bartender) are the worst things to happen to this restaurant since they opened! Don’t even know how they got jobs here with their terrible attitudes. They’re lazy, overly self righteous, and rude to repeat customers. Obviously never heard of customer loyalty before. Since they’ve been hired every single regular customer they’ve had has boycotted this place! And you should too!They’ve also reduced the quality of food here drastically in the past couple months. Even their lean brisket is greasy and absolutely disgusting. (None of their regulars even bother to order their food since they changed their recipes) It went from tasting like heaven a few months ago to making most of their customers have food poisoning. So please beware of their food! It is not edible anymore. Either overcooked or undercooked. Never hitting the mark. More plates get sent back than get eaten now.Not only are the managers (Patrice and Renee) unprofessional, but if you’re hearing-impaired and ask them to repeat themselves because you didn’t hear it the first time, they get an attitude with you.Unless you’re buying local draft beers from the only four decent employees here I mentioned above, don’t waste your money or your time. You will regret it. I know my family and I definitely did!TLDR: terrible food, slow and unprofessional service, and dirty beyond belief.

Had the brisket sandwich with the brussel sprout side and both were excellent. Well paired sandwich with great flavor.

Wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was very delightful. I enjoyed their beer selection while the bar tender was able to make a non-alcoholic cocktail for my wife. The waiter was especially helpful and very well mannered. We’ll definitely be back again.

The place is beautiful, staff very friendly and comfortable atmosphere. However sadly the food is no good. Presentation is great, looks like your in for a treat! Best just look....Brisket was tough, I mean no amount of fork pressure was breaking up this meat. I used a knife and found bland Brisket. The potatoes were dry , just disappointing.
