The people taking my order were so nice, but the food was unbelievably bad. Brisket was thin like roast beef, and the ribs weren’t tender at all. Baked beans were the best part, everything else was just not good.

I am so hurt....I grew up in Memphis, while visiting family..wanted to try bbq. Online rating is good but if there was a such thing as bbq police, I would call them. The dry and tasteless beef brisket is sliced like cold cut Mets at a deli. I have never seen anything like that, hope I never see it again. The ribs are all out burnt an tough, and you knew that when you boxed it up. The pulled pork, perhaps was pulled and sat for too long as it's also dry. Not to mention there is barely a hint of real bbq smoke flavor. I am disappointed that this was my hometown bbq experience. Sad, just sad.

This was a nice BBQ spot for me and my sisters during our trip to Memphis. The meats were great, but the sides were just ok. And the sweet tea was on point! All in all, it was a good experience. The service was A+

Ordered the appetizer sampler to go. It was COVERED in seasoning (chips & meat cheese) ended up throwing away. Called back to inform the staff and employee answered as if that’s just how it’s suppose to be. Could not eat it if you order ask for NO additional seasoning to be added.

The lady at the counter greeted me very nicely and helped with deciding what to order. I was on a day trip from Arkansas the location was easy to find.
