Really like the atmosphere and the service was great got the brisket just didn't have much flavor and they gave us the center of the cut and I really would have liked the darkened ends.

We have eaten here many times and it’s always been so good. But the past few times we’ve been it’s just been different and not in a good way! Today, I was there early so the only thing I can think of is that the ribs I was given were from yesterday! They were like jerky!! And the “moist” brisket was dry! Very disappointing. And it’s soooooo$$. Sorry, but we’re will not be back.

My best friend and I tried it for the first time today. Was excellent to say the least. Chicken fried steak was big and tender. Great tasting sides and friendly staff. Will definitely be back!

Food is excellent and staff is friendly.. I really like this place. The pulled pork isn't soaked in sugar so you can actually taste how flavorful the pork is. The brisket is really good as well, has great bark. Lastly, you've got to get the cobbler.. just do

Generally, good, but they’re giving smaller portions of sides for the same price (using significantly smaller containers than before- about half).Follow up: 2/8/24, my wife and I stopped in for dinner. We were at the register to pay, and the cashier got a call and left us there: she just walked off to take the call. We waited a looong time before someone got another person from the back to ring up our order. Incredibly rude. I was ready to toss our trays and leave.

Not a good spot for BBQ...rather a disgrace to Texas BBQ. The sides were flavorless and unsalted, bread basic and I received only a half order of onion rings....an overall waste of $80 via DoorDash. If a company has less than 15 ingredients that make up the menu, get the dishes right!

Love the fried okra. Slight sweetness in the batter dip keeps you going back for another piece. Wet and dry brisket options. Sauces are very good, not over-smoked like some places.Parking: 2 lots, on east and west sides. Can be a little difficult to get in/out when they are busy.

Outstanding BBQ pulled pork! Loads of flavor, paired with both regular and spicy bbq sauce- amazing. The Smithfield burger was delicious. Atmosphere is quality and with easy going staff.

You step out of your car and you’re mouth is already watering. It’s “line” style ordering like other BBQ restaurants in the area. We grabbed some drinks from the bar and sat down to dig in. I inhaled my pulled pork baked potato, but managed to get a photo of my husband’s 3 meat platter. We were stuffed but couldn’t resist the peach cobbler and homemade banana pudding…YUMMM!So If you’re in the mood for BBQ there’s a dozen places to try. If you’re in the mood for GREAT BBQ…then you’ve found your spot!We look forward to some warm nights out on their patio!

We ate there several years aand it wasn't what bragged about. Too expensive. Food was good but that kind of figure we can eat at a dive and get better for our money. All it took for us was 1 time and never went back.

I ordered the 3 Meat plate for takeout. The ribs were really good and slice brisket was passable. I ordered double brisket but seems like I got a serving of one. For my sides, I got fried okra and jalapeño Mac-n-cheese. The jalapeno Mac-n-cheese was horrible, way worse than from any box. Also, didn’t receive or even offered the onion, pickles and jalapeño medley..this is a staple at barbecue places.
