Jalene RuelasNovember 2, 2014One of my two favorite BBQ places in town! Especially love the fries. Sometimes I think the wait is a tad long. Corn bread muffins - yum!!! Overall-good choice!
BC HartJuly 3, 2015Best BBQ I've ever had! Everything is top notch! Always fresh & hot. Not the cheapest place to eat but definitely one of the best & worth every penny. The fries & corn muffins are divine.- Deepak SabharwalDecember 17, 2011They have the BEST catfish fingers and ribs! Get the rib-n-meat combo with those I you can!
- BC HartOctober 12, 2015Was never cheap but very reasonable for BBQ joint but guess he's won a few too many awards because now it's just RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE. Quality has gone down quite a bit as well. Very disappointed!
Chesty LarueFebruary 7, 2018I wouldn't know. Took 45 minutes to take our orders & bring out 1 glass of water. Got totally ignored and manager didn't even offer an apology when we complained. WORST restaurant experience ever!
