Beautiful outdoor seating!! We just came for happy hour drinks, but the smell of BBQ was so yummy! Ordered some appetizers, also! Happy Hour deals are great! (See menu/pricing in photos).

Very nice place with decent food. Excellent banana pudding! The pulled pork and ribs were nice and smokey. We had beans and potato salad for sides, just average. Potato salad could use some mustard, vinegar, or dill to give it just a little more flavor, but the texture was spot on. Beans were also lacking flavor, some nice smoked pork belly pieces would liven it up. The ribs had some dry areas, a little much for the portion size in my opinion. But I’ll try them again to see if it’s normal or just the one I had as the bark was very tasty.

Been wanting to try this place forever and finally did. Boy am I glad! From the second you want in you can smell the aroma of mesquite wood from their smokers.

I was going to order wings but ended up ordering bbq chicken which surprisingly boneless. Pretty tasty bit on the dry side. The place is spacious, didn’t go to outdoor seating as it was too hot.

We wanted a meal and didn’t want to go to a chain restaurant and happened across the name when looking for somewhere to go. I am so happy we did! The food was excellent, the atmosphere was amazing, and the people were so kind! It was a top notch experience that I plan to repeat! Thanks to the chef as well for coming out and speaking with us. If I could give more stars I would!!!

Enjoyed our food. The Mac was amazing. I was surprised the pulled pork didn’t have much of a smoky flavor but overall very good and unique flavor. Atmosphere outside was great. Did not care for the ordering system as it was hard to specify and find what kind of drinks we wanted (even the simplest). Made tipping at the end awkward since nobody took our orders (although the manager and food runners did check on us several times).

This is the southern bbq you’ve been looking for. Each part of the meal is amazing. The baked beans have never seen the inside of a can. Not like grandma made, way better than grandma’s! The potato salad should be award winning. The brisket is so smokey and the depth of flavor has many layers it is like heaven in your mouth. I was thinking the pork shoulder might be dry since it is so thin, but it is thin and juicy with as many layers to the depths as the brisket. Finish it off with sweet tea or your favorite brew. The was a book signing for a local author that night also.

The way of ordering food is ridiculous. No bigger than the restaurant is, one of the 2 ladies sitting at the entrance desk could go to tables to take orders. The brisket with ribs is what I ordered. The ribs were a little over cooked but tasted fine. The brisket portion was terrible. The pieces were the meatless ends of the brisket, just charred fat. My wife got the brisket dinner. It was well portioned and good.

What an amazing gem! We pulled off the highway after searching for some good BBQ for our family of 5. Google reviews were fantastic and they couldn’t have been more right! The food was amazing, great selection of beers on tap, awesome atmosphere and friendly staff. We were so pleasantly surprised! Be sure and try their selection of sauces, they are delicious! We always choose to support local!

Odd dining experience… You enter what looks a regular restaurant…. At the hostess counter you order your meal. Our family of four had fantastic meals that each tasted superb. We all agree if there was one thing they should do to make it better or was that all of our meals were served in the cool side of hot.
