- BTBarb ThompsonNov 13, 20251.0So sad this place went down. The food was good when they opened but slowly they cut there food and now its not worth the money they charge, the potatoes and the Mac & Cheese is nothing like it use to be and the meat is dried out and very little portions. So sad.
- MVMatt VerdiNov 10, 20252.0Everything was dry,the mac was paste,the wings were the size of my thumb and leather. Pulled pork was dry and stringy with no flavor. For the price I paid id expect it to be at least decent. Been there 3 times and its never good. I will stick to making it myself.
- JVJustin VasquezOct 12, 20255.0Great food!! Awesome service
- KKKJOct 11, 20255.0What food was really good, maybe a little bit more pricey than our barbecue place at where we live. You have a wine room with a huge dining table and it seemed very cozy in there with some lounge chairs also.
- CCChuck CurtisOct 1, 20255.0Very good shrimp gumbo and chicken pot pie
