Large portions, a self-serve BBQ sauce station, and plenty of beers and NA options to choose from make for a great visit. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Awesome patio space, great for groups. The brisket and tri-tip were the shining stars here. Tender, juicy, and meaty. Good cuts of meat, and it's clear they put time into their processes. Really enjoyed both of their BBQ sauces, and the baked potato was also very well done. Pretty good service. Order at the counter, and they bring it out to you. Bus your own table; I'm sure it helps keep prices down. My dad said he wanted to come back here every day of our vacation. Certainly worth checking out!

Fair portion, not a belly buster. Good flavors on the meat. The beans are seasoned with chili powder. I asked the cashier if the cornbread was made in-house, "Ah, I dont think so". The garlic bread was good though. Order at the counter, take a seat, they call your name. Good, jaming blues on the speakers. Start to finish 45 minutes. Not packed but people were constantly tricked in. The tri-tip cuts are thick so you have to saw through those. Brisket was fall apart tender. Mac n cheese was fine, but not gooey. The mint at the end is a nice touch. Oh, good beer selection!

He let us know where we could find the menu up close, as opposed to the giant one listed above us. My partner and I decided to go with the Cowboy Pizza and the Pesto Pasta. BOTH OF THESE FOOD ITEMS WERE SPLENDED!! Compliments to the chef, seriously. We really wanted to pair our food with lemonade, but they did have any like they listed on the menu. We ended up going with two ciders from "2 TOWNS CIDERHOUSE." My cider was POG Cosmic Crisp but unfortunately it was a little flat and not as enjoyable. My partner got the Mango Cosmic Crisp and he enjoyed his better. I wish they had lemonade, or I wish I would've just stuck to a water cup or a different type of beverage. They have a lot of options for 21+ but they also have a Stubborn Soda Machine with 8 different flavors. There is plenty of seating indoors as well as outdoors! The inside is decorated with lights, plants, and a majority of the seats are a nice brown leather. Overall, it was wonderful.

It's just a gravel parking lot and little store with random fresh goodies. I was confused for a sec, but then i saw a big smoker and bbq on the side of the store, with a big sign and realized you had to go inside the store to order. This was one of the best decisions of my life! The ribs were insanely good! Everything was good! I got every kind of meat! If you're reading this and debating stopping by.... If they are open and mikes' on the smoker, GO!!! Go in the store, order, and you'll be glad you did! I sat on the patio table and felt bad for every person driving by not stopping to try this hidden gem bbq! Mike nailed it!! And his 3 special bbq sauces! I WILL BE BACK! The store has cool stuff too.

There is also a pool table and few arcade games! The menu is extensive with plenty of traditional bar food options and some Irish staples. Everything sounded delicious, but I opted for the Pop"s Pub burger. I figured that would be a good starting point to get a feel of how good the food is. The burger was good, but not $21.00 good. The fries were tasty ,and I really enjoyed the side salad that came with it. The burger itself came with lettuce , tomato and a house sauce (thousand island blend). The burger was cooked perfectly , and tasted pretty good. However, when you add a $10.00 IPA to the equation and throw in a tip- I was out $41.00. I didn't like my meal enough to spend that kind of money. For a burger to be this pricey, I needed more. This place seems like a cool place to chill ,watch a game, and enjoy a cold beer. I may just do that next time and skip the meal. The service was poor. Once my food was dropped off , I never heard from the lady again to check on me until she dropped off the check.

Everything in my life changed. I never used to eat at McDonalds, but after I got out of the hospital, I eat there a lot (it's all I can afford - if that) and I'm always trying to pay attention to the McD points so I can get more food. That being said, going to Chama is either because of some miraculous unplanned result, or deliberately saving money for the better part of a year. The worst result of my new life with these injuries is I can't take care of M as much as I'd like. We did take M to Chama for her birthday a couple years ago and she has always been wanting to go back every day since then. Recently, she requested to choose where we would have dinner, and in addition she said we couldn't change her mind. We weren't even sure until we arrived that she had chosen Chama (so that implies Chama is her favorite restaurant - even though she's been to a lot of nice places including in Monterey and on the ocean side). We could only afford to get just M a meal and Grace was really nervous that us being on a really obvious budget and being out of place would cause the staff to be upset or impatient with us. Actually, the staff was super nice and accommodating to M, and to all of us. That could only happen because the Chama staff and Terry our waitress treated us like family. If you put me at the McD ordering kiosk, I'm pretty good at navigating my way through ordering and making sure I use up my points before they expire. But we were lost as to how ordering worked at Chama, and I couldn't remember anything I learned from the last couple times before when I was there. Terry was really patient explaining how to order, and helped M choose a meal option / buffet that was perfect for her. All three times I've been there the staff has been great. Recently was M's second time and we appreciated that the staff would be so kind to a child. There's something special and permanent about a child's memory eating at their favorite restaurant in the world. We appreciate that Chama staff and Terry made the effort to make that dinner magical and inviting. We have a really good memory now of a family together having that amazing experience. I like M had an unusual opportunity to plan our evening and restaurant choice, she did make the plans, and she had such a memorable shared adventure and outcome. Thank you!
