What a great find. I needed to get something to eat after I landed in my room and right across the…read moreparking lot. Was this barbecue place. It came highly recommended, so I had to go over and check it out Walked in and was immediately greeted and taken to my table, I was only there for a brief moment before Ashley showed up to take my drink order. I like that prompt, on point and willingness to serve the customer. I ordered an iced tea with no lemon and checked out the menu. They have plenty of great options since it was wing day. I figured I'd better check it out. When Ashley came back with my ST I asked her what was up with wings and they were $0.99 each on Tuesday and Wednesday so I had to do it. They come smoked and fried which was absolutely wonderful and they come with a house dry rub which was off the charts. I ordered a house salad which was pretty big for the price. That and the wings made for a great meal. So I took that down in record time. I have to brag on my server. Ashley was absolutely great. She was on point all through the meal, she was not overbearing, she was attentive, friendly, made great suggestions, and was just overall a pleasure to have as a server. It really makes a difference when the person waiting tables knows what they're doing. And she was on point. I hope that management reads this and gives her a raise, because she was the gold standard for me. Having been a server for as many years as I have I can see it. So management if you're reading this that girl deserves a raise. And she should be the one training other waitresses how to be. Bottom line?l The experiences was really good, the food was amazing. The service was top notch and I don't have a bad thing to say about this place at all. If you are ever in this area you need to go back there and get yourself something on wing day which is Tuesday and Wednesday and be sure to ask for Ashley. You will not regret it.

This place is GREAT! We got a 3 meat platter with 3 sides and a smoked bologna sandwich…read more Everything had great flavor. Zero complaints. I compare it to authentic BBQ I've had in the south. Each meat was moist and had just enough smoke flavor. Nothing was drenched in bbq sauce (it was on the side... although nothing needed it). And the side dishes?... they are NOT an afterthought. We had smoked mushrooms, beans and slaw. Each had a little flavor twist from the chef (I'm not going to give it away). Excellent. The service was very welcoming and attentive. Think Midwest nice. There was a constant flow of customers and everyone was greeted by the staff with small talk that just resulted in a very nice atmosphere to sit and enjoy your food! If you are looking for true BBQ, I would definitely suggest coming here... even if it's a bit of a drive for you. It's the best around Northeast Ohio imho.

The food and service is where they excel. I got the Brisket Sandwich combo which comes with a choice of side , drink and cornbread. The brisket was good and make sure to add the Carolina BBQ sauce on it. I opted for a side of the mac and cheese and cornbread. Now I'm don't really care for cornbread but this was easily the best cornbread I've had so far in my life. They used a honey butter drizzle and it's delicious. The cornbread absorbed the honey and it was very NICEEE!. My friend got the beans and Brussels sprouts with bacon. We met the owner who was nice and took the time to talk to us. Now we gotta come back tomorrow before we leave for the road and try some other stuff
