great place to grab some food, a beer or cocktail, or catch a band and you can bring your kids and dogs.

Placed an order at 7:00, was told 10-15 minutes for our food to be done, came up to check on it at 7:30 and was told 15 more minutes, wasn’t done until 7:55. Only had one food truck and they were out of over 2/3 of their menu. It’s not the venues fault but none of the parents were paying attention to their kids who were stacking metal chairs into a pyramid to climb and staff didn’t intervene to keep the playground a safe space for other guests. Come with a full stomach and no kids if you want a good time.

Perfect place for lunch with kids! Food was amazing, and they have tons of tables, indoor and outdoor, and a playground so kids can play while parents eat! 10/10Kid-friendliness: Playground next to tables! ??

I can’t say enough about the wings. They are delicious! I highly recommend the house rub. You don’t need sauces for them. They are full of flavor alone.

If you haven’t tried the O G Burger and Battered Fries, you have been missing out!! My granddaughter and I Love this meal!! Burgers are made with ground beef and brisket!! Served with a Soft Drink and total cost was less than $25!!

I ordered the burger and fries to take home to watch my coke play, The burger was too undercooked to eat. The fries were great only point of leaving this review is to ensure food quality. Hopefully the higher ups are reading this an extra 30 seconds on the grill would have made for a great sandwich! The place is super

Wouldn't even give a 1 if I didn't have to. Fried pickles tasted like fried fish. Horrible service, bartender asked for an $18 tip on a $22 check. (I get to keep this, right. Gave her 2 twenties) That is never OK!!!! Will never go back, and would never recommend!

Great place! Awesome staff, and the onion rings.... All I can say is wow! Best onion rings around! Try the smash burger, and you won't be disappointed! Came here one other time. There were multiple food trucks and live music. I ate from one of the trucks and was very happy, but I had to come back and try the burger. I'm so glad I did! Will definitely be making this a regular spot!

Wow, super cool new place! Tons of outdoor seating and dog friendly! Parking is sparse and a challenge, because they have so many outdoor tables, yet not quite enough parking for the whole place. Second time here, had the smash burger with onion rings... OMG, amazing! Best onion rings I ever had in my life, not kidding! And the Smashburger is everything it's cracked up to be... Super super good and tasty! The first time here about a week or so ago, ate at the hibachi food truck, there was a band, and the place was packed... Very cool Tennessee outdoor vibe. They also have a great selection of nonalcoholic beer and Mocktails for those people who do not drink alcohol! Awesome! New, clean restrooms, but only one stall for men and one stall fork women, which is definitely not enough considering how busy this place gets. Again, the parking was the only problem, but since it's close to home and has so much to offer, we will definitely be back again and again.

Nice venue, but poor service, long waits for food, lack of decent seating and watered down drinks makes it a hard pass

I am sooo impressed with this place! The food was awesome! I'm very picky about food in general but especially about burgers and fries. Well...search no further for the best burger and fries. The cheeseburger was so well seasoned that it needed no toppings or even condiments and I usually have my cheeseburgers with everything on them. The fries were also excellent. I don't know how they manage it but they were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. This is a must try place!

The food here was fairly decent, but one of the Hispanic workers wearing a bandana started picking his nose on the way into the restaurant. I pray to God they make their workers wash their hands. Aside from that, good for the value.
