The service is a little blunt, but honestly, for a counter‑service spot with a tight, focused menu, it fits the vibe. They've got two sauces, sweet and hot, and while both tasted pretty similar with not much heat, they were still solid. The real stars of the sides are the mac and cheese and the potato salad - total must‑haves. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Also got a Coke and two glasses of white wine. Total with tax but before tip - an extremely reasonable $46. Brisket: Good mix of lean and fatty. Bark was super. A. St. Louis Ribs: My fiancé loved them. They looked a tad dry to me. A- maybe. Jalapeño/cheese sausage: Nice texture, plentiful jalapeños. A-. Collard greens, broccoli, mac and cheese were all A's. There were two sauces on the table, both very good. The presentation - all of the items neatly arranged on a metal tray - was even thoughtful and appealing. Long before we were done she made me promise we would come back, which I readily agreed to. All in all a five star barbecue experience. And I lived in Texas for eight years.

This location in particular stands out for its fast service and spacious seating, which makes every visit smooth and enjoyable. Our favorite is the St. Louis ribs--they're truly to die for. And you can't go wrong starting with the loaded tots appetizer, topped with onion straws, queso, and your choice of meat (we always go with the pulled pork). It's a 10/10 and an absolute must-try

I had the Mediterranean Flatbread without the chicken, but took the chicken home as leftovers for the family. It was piled with artichokes, great quality kalamata olives, etc. The chesses with the pesto sauce and drizzle were a delicious combination! My son enjoyed the leftover chicken. Hubby had the Granny's Pot Roast. He was impressed with how lean the meat was and that he could cut it with his fork. The loaded mashed potatoes looked phenomenal. In addition to the food being delicious, the staff was wonderful. We had three different waitstaff checking on us throughout our meal. We watched them open doors for people coming in and leaving the restaurant. The restaurant also has a popular meal planning service. They rotate their menu monthly. This will definitely be one of our new go to spots!

The food was prepared quickly, came out hot and fresh, and was full of flavor. The only thing keeping this from a review is that I found the menu somewhat limited (one steak option, no burger, one seafood entree option). Certainly this is due to a rotating menu so what makes them special to others was a bit limiting for me. I'll definitely be back to check out future menu options!

Comfort food done right. Rich, filling, and exactly what you want in the morning. Only gripe? The orange juice. I was fully expecting fresh squeezed and instead got bottled. Mild betrayal.

Everything across the table looked legit and nobody left disappointed. Laid-back vibe, fast service, and hearty portions. Just do yourself a favor and mentally downgrade your orange juice expectations before you sit down.
