Dave PowersMarch 26, 2016The brisket was good but it wasn't sliced properly unless you like it in big chunks. The beans were really good but the coleslaw was weird. Service is good.
Pit chili, pork belly, German potatoes, flip envy, and old-fashioned are fan-fucking-tastic.
- David BryantJanuary 15, 2018Freedman's is not as good as promoted; late night food = dog food and sloooooooow service.
