Great experience! The food was good and the service is excellent. Parking can be challenging but there are a few spaces in the back. There are plenty of tables but be sure to make reservations if you have a party bigger than 4. The meat is well cooked and the portions are fair. The ribs and chicken are delicious! The brisket was a letdown and that's the main reason we came. It was dry and the seasoning was sour tasting. I had to put barbeque sauce on it which made it better. As far as the sides go, the Mac and cheese and rice dishes were very tasty. The coleslaw was over seasoned and had way too much dill. Will definitely return for the ribs and chicken. Love their bbq sauce!
