Natalie ChanJuly 25, 20110 star!! **AVOID IT** Make sure you check your orders before leaving the restaurant for take-out. I need to came back twice and it still not right!
joyce kFebruary 17, 2012Get fries for the side order, the corn is juicy but nothing special and the Mac and cheese is horrible.

Tim ErdmannJuly 21, 2013Just don't eat here. BBQ is just not good. They're skating by on the Top Gun thing.
MelissaOctober 6, 2012Smelled so good I had to stop in but I wish I would have read the reviews first. Yuck.
Laken BOctober 2, 2011Gross! Kansas would be embarrassed. The BBQ sauce taste like it came straight from a bottle. Pulled pork was dry.
Mike VogelSeptember 5, 2010Watch out for the cockroaches that come out after dark...and no I am not joking...they'll eat your food and run out on the bill...be aware
Lauren YoungbergAugust 21, 2016Great if you're a tourist and don't know what good BBQ is. Not great if you hate people dressed up like Tom Cruise in Top Gun coming up to your table to pose for pictures.
Jon DarveauFebruary 1, 2018Still cashing in on the Top Gun connection, this place really doesn’t have much more to offer
Santiago DuarteOctober 28, 2014Delicioso y legendario BBQ en San Diego. Todo buenísimo y el sitio de BBQ de Top Gun.
