This is close to the best BBQ I've ever had and absolutely the best in the northern USA. The chicken wings were the standout for me. Juicy and meaty and smokey, and just delicious! That was the lead in to an excellent dinner with two companions, both of whom agreed: their meals were great. It was too busy at 6:30 pm Tuesday to get a table so we ate at the copper-topped bar. That was also a great experience. I'll be back here again.

Food was alright, not spectacular but still pretty good. Giving them five stars because overall everything was great and their Mac N' Cheese was to die for. Absolutely delicious. I got the St. Louis Ribs, with Sweet Potatoes and Mac N' Cheese first time I went here. Friends got Brisket with green beans and Mac N' Cheese as well. Their beer selection was pretty good. They had a really flavorful selection of sauces. The staff was very nice and very accommodating. Parking was difficult, but I suppose that's to be expected for this places location. The wait time wasn't bad and they had an adequate waiting area. Apparently this place was featured on Guy's Diner Drive-In's and Dines? Their BBQ wasn't the best, I'm betting the local's may argue. Regardless this place is still really good. You have to try their Mac 'N Cheese!

This is a definite diet Buster kind of restaurant. However it does it's so incredibly well!. You would expect a place to have great barbecue and it does, but the servers as well as the beer selections make it so that you prance down this gastrointestinal Adventure as a fully satiated carnivore. After having said that, I must also mention that the mac and cheese alone would have been worth the trip. Nice casual and comfortable atmosphere.

I've been eating slows since I was a kid. They are widely known for their ribs and apple BBQ sauce. Everything on the menu is yummy. The Mac and cheese is always on point. The cocktails are always made correctly. Prices are good. The staff is friendly and the manager Tara is awesome. It's worth checking out. Downtown parking.

Food is good but management is not !! They are supposed to take care of problems, make sure the customer is satisfied. This was my first and last time here ! I only return to places who care about the customer. I heard the food was good so I was looking forward to coming here. I was meeting a friend who was detained so I came in to get a table. The place was pretty empty and remained so through the hour and a half we were there. The problem was, while my friend was making her way there they refused to seat me. They said they could not seat me until she got there so I stood for 25 minutes because there were no seats to sit while I was waiting. I asked to speak to the manager and he said that was their policy, to not seat anyone until all members of the party were there. I expressed my displeasure to no avail. I can only guess they didn't want someone taking up a table in case they got a rush. I've never been to a restaurant that refused to let you sit while waiting. This was definitely a first for me. I already knew I would not return no matter how good the food was. There are too many restaurants out there who go out of their way to provide good service to have to put up with a manager who doesn't care to provide good service (and hopefully get return business and recommendations)
