Well we had come expecting top of the hill grill with so many positive reviews instead we showed up with a food cart serving “smoked bbq”…. which unfortunately wasn’t smokey and not the greatest quality and they served legit b&m beans like they could have at least doctored them up with spices onions and even bacon lol

Very cool spot to grab a bite! Beautiful views and such a neat set up in terms of atmosphere and seating options. There’s uncovered, covered, and then indoors. It’s kind of like a tree house, you feel like you’re eating high up among nature. You woukdmt be able to tell this place is so unique from the road. Now the food – we got the brisket mac and cheese. I would highly recommend it. The brisket was cooked just right and didn’t have much fat on it. The mac was creamy and delicious. Go, go, go!

2021:We came back for the gumbo, only to discover that the menu has been paired down and no longer carries their best tasting item. We were told that the son took over the place and reduced the menu. Please bring gumbo back!

2022: The ownership has changed and they’ve taken their best thing off the menu, the gumbo. We came back for the gumbo and were very disappointed that it’s gone. I had a combo plate again. The ribs were excellent but the chicken was a little dry and the brisket wasnt very interesting. Next time I’ll just get a rack of ribs.

We can now say we’ve been here and it was a great way to spend a part of the day. But I cannot in good conscience say it is a great BBQ joint. It’s also not a bad BBQ joint either but rather kinda in the middle. The meats were reheated not fresh cut and no smoke ring was detectable on any of the cuts. I tried the combo plate and got the brisket, pulled pork and ribs. My wife got the brisket, ribs and chicken. It is busy there and it took some time for our order to come up, “just under a half hour”. So honestly I was expecting it was due to waiting on the meats being finished from cooking. But alas this was not the case. You can easily see the photos the meat was not freshly cut, and no smoke rings. It was tender and delicious, just not smoky. I suspect the cornbread and beans are not homemade but again tasted fine and the cornbread was not dry. The coleslaw was different or our taste buds were way off. A mayo slaw and a powerful flavor of Thyme that overpowered everything. I’m not a mayo slaw person but I actualy liked this particular one because of the overwhelming flavors. However my wife could not eat it as to her it was “like eating a Christmas tree!”?

The view is beautiful. The outdoor covered and uncovered tables are well appointed. The food is yummy. Not a fan of the stale cornbread. Nice eclectic crowd. Friendly.

A little slow on pick up/to go orders but the food was pretty good! Really enjoyed the ribs. The collard greens were in a takeout box instead of a soup cup and ended up spilling all over unfortunately. But they were still good!

Not the best BBQ I’ve had, but it is good enough to go back when in the area.

The food tasted great, friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere. Only thing I would’ve liked was for both halves of the baked potato and a slightly larger portion of cornbread.
