Update: A great experience today I need to give this place a huge shout out. I had my soccer team come in 20+ players and they had a incredible time. Service was on point. Food even better. If you like BBQ and island food this is the place.

People were super nice. I got the Salmon with grilled vegetables and rice. The Pineapple habeñero sauce had a great kick, and awesome Smokey sweet flavor. My only complaint was that the jasmine rice was a little salty, which I wasn’t expecting it to be seasoned, and my salmon was a tad overdone for my taste. Those are my personal opinions, others may feel differently. the flavors were overall awesome, and the atmosphere was cool. Great selection of brews too. Would definitely recommend stopping by for a good meal.

Couldn’t wait to try this place and we were pretty disappointed. My husband got the ribs, said they were very bland and full of tendons. The sauce that came with it tasted awful. I saw a picture of the jumbo shrimp online, they looked amazing so I ordered those. I don’t know how they got away with calling little shrimp jumbo!! They were so small and not much flavor. The grilled veggies and jasmine rice was good though.

We were on our way home from the white mountains and found this spot thanks to Google. Food is incredible! I got the pork belly plate with smashers and Cole slaw. My daughter who’s pescatarian got the fish tacos and loved them! Said they were the best she’s had in awhile. My husband got the pulled pork with cornbread and black beans. He really liked it. My son’s not adventurous and got the grilled cheese and smashers, he ate every bite and said it was delicious. Definitely a great spot. Wish we lived closer. We will definitely be back though regardless of distance. Absolutely worth the drive.

We came here today only because another restaurant that we planned to visit was closed….AND we are thankful it was. The food here is amazing. I had the pork belly, coleslaw and cornbread. It was truly the best I’ve had. After looking at some of earlier reviews, I wasn’t sure how it was going to be. After eating here, I can honestly say that they should give it another try. It was the best BBQ around. Service was equally as good. Staff and owner were super friendly. I’d give 6 stars if I could. Definitely coming back for sure.

Wow!!!! Why haven’t I heard of this place sooner? I love foods that mix different unexpected flavors together and this place has so many sandwiches that do that. I had the “slaw—py” pulled pork sandwich and the medley of flavors were amazing. I will definitely be going back to try other sandwiches.

Anyone that gives this place less than 5 stars knows absolutely nothing about BBQ!! Best in NH for sure!! Haven’t had BBQ this good since I was in St. Louis, MO. My only complaint about the coleslaw is there wasn’t enough on my plate lol!! Every bite was delicious. Loved all the sauces but the Caribbean was my favorite. We will definitely be back!

Staff are always friendly and make sure you genuinely enjoy their food. The owner (or chef?) made us feel like family. Food is amazing. I recommend the ribs, charred salmon, and smashers. Also if you like a kick, their habanero sauce is to die for. Always excited to come back!

Fantastic spot! Greeted warmly when we arrived and got a full explanation of how to order from their mouth-watering menu. It was so difficult to pick but went with the grilled shrimp with veggies and smashers. My companions ordered pork belly, brisket, and ribs and not one of us were disappointed. Will definitely return and have pinned as a favorite.
