    Some of the worse BBQ food I ever had. Dry no flavor brisket and pulled pork, side dishes were decent. The highlight was the cold beers.

    Accepted our reservation to include Open Table $40 doing credit - online receipt given- but refused to honor it when the check came. "Oh, we don't accept them here, only our other location.". I emailed a few days later: different manager stated server was wrong, gave us a gift card to equal the reward dollars lost". The food is very good, we are happy to go back.

    Stopped in for lunch. I was hoping to get a Cuban sandwich, but they have a different menu than the place in Bethany. My wife, son, and I ordered off the specials menu. The highly recommended brisket cheese steak was good. I wouldn't highly recommend it, though. My wife really liked her chicken quesadilla and my son really liked his blackened shrimp tacos.
