Nice little bbq joint downtown. Had the sandwich for 4 special for $40 with my coworkers. We chose brisket with coleslaw. Food came out quick. Ice tea was good. Brisket was a bit well done for me, but still good. Coleslaw tasted like a kit but was very fresh. All of the inhoise bbq sauce was good. The Kentucky bourbon and Carolina gold were my faves. Blazer was very good too. I will try them again and recommend them to anyone who likes bbq.

Beef ribs were an absolute blessing to a frustrating work day. Great chicken thigh to boot and I left beyond satisfied but wanted to eat more. Love the atmosphere, very comfortable, and great iced tea. Staff was the cherry on top, friendly and knowledgeable. I will be back for certain!

I have tried this place a few times because it always smells amazing. Not impressed. The last three times the meat was dry. The Mac and cheese was pretty flavorless. The coleslaw was pretty much just cabbage, no sauce. It takes forever to get your food, the time before last they forgot about me completely and started cleaning the kitchen, I had to ask where my food was. It is expensive. I don’t mind waiting and paying up if the food is good, but this hasn’t been worth the money or the wait. Won’t be back.

The wife & I went here on St.Patricks Day & ordered a full rack of the beef ribs which has 7 & our side items were sweet potato fries with hushpuppies & a cornbread bread muffin we both went home fat full & happy with plenty of left over’s…… those ribs were perfect for us tender, juicy & alot of flavor the seasoning was really good in my opinion, next time we go back we are gonna try the pork ribs … altogether spent roughly $30 bucks just for the 2 of us & that was really fair

Another wonderfully run family restaurant. The food here is absolutely amazing, tender meats that just melt in your mouth. I also greatly love the hush puppies and pulled pork personaly! The prices are decent and you can find some great specials at times. If you are wanting to get for a larger group there are some really great priced group/family sized orders. Additionally, they do not take long once you have ordered except for on occassion as they do get a large number of customers at times. I would recommend Adam’s Rib Smoke House to anyone looking for a good BBQ place.

Ribs are done well and you have many sauce choices, corn bread muffin is tasty. sides were okay.

Went once, then couldn’t stop. All food was amazingly delicious. High-level of smoked meat! Don’t miss the brisket sandwich.

I came with high expectation and left with a feeling of a not so great food or the wibe of the place. Nothing to say about the service though they wanted tip before food was served, and i had to go to the counter and get the food myself. If the food had been great, well I’d tip the chefs but this was not the greatness everyone speaks of.

We wanted to finally eat some BBQ since we moved to Marion County a year ago. We were in the area and yelped the nearest place. The outside looked inviting so we stopped by for a to go order. We both ordered brisket with sides and my fiance had the turkey & I got the sausage. The meats were tasty & the sauces were good too, but the sides not so much.We’d say this place was just alright, I guess. The riblets were also a bit dry, fries were soggy and mac & cheese is definitely not the best. Overall the food and service was satisfactory. We will probably try another place next time around if we’re in the area.
