- CCCharles C5 days ago3.0Ribs were very tough and hard to get off the bone. Alot of fat in pork. The girl taking my order was really cute and very sweet. Service out weighs the quality of the food for the very high price. They pulled the relish bar an hour before closing time so didnt have onions or pickles. They were on service counter and taken to the back before I was able to get any. The workers closing down before actual closing time was disappointing. Sweet tea was empty and they were not trying to make anymore and it was right at 8 pm on Friday night. The restaurant was empty almost so I guess thats why they were closing early. Guest needs should be #1 for the expensive and not very good BBQ.
- DBDavid BossDec 31, 20253.0When they say “curbside” they really mean “pick up.” Waited 15 minutes at the curbside after telling them I arrived and which spot I was located. No text or any communication. Went inside to check and my order was there just sitting and ready to go. Who knows how long it was resting, getting cold? Anyway, for spending more than 30 bucks, I’d hope for a better system. Especially since they were not busy.

- PCpat cezarDec 27, 20251.0Great location, but my experience was a huge disappointment. I ordered the brisket poor boy sandwich to-go, hoping for something amazing. I chose it because l'd seen the customers ahead of me get the poor boy brisket sandwiches, and theirs were loaded with lean cuts of brisket that completely covered the French bread. It looked so good. When my order was ready, I couldn't believe what I received. The brisket was sliced extremely thin and, worse, it was mostly fatty instead of lean. The meat only covered half the bread. I was really let down. I spoke to the manager about it, and she tried to explain that the other sandwiches I saw included both sausage and brisket, but I didn't see any sausage on the ones before me. The manager and I went back and forth about how my sandwich was supposed to look, but it didn't feel like I was being heard. In the end, I just asked for a refund. I left the meal at the counter, feeling totally unsatisfied. This was a huge disappointment.
