The house-made chips and dipping sauce were a great addition. I also loved reading the story behind the restaurant.

Highly recommend the Cuban!

They have a few picnic tables out front and more seating inside. We got a parking spot no problem and went inside. It is an order at the counter place with a dark wood feel. This is not your typical BBQ place, their website describes their restaurant as fast casual + BBQ fusion. Many traditional BBQ items such as ribs and baked beans are not on the menu, yet they offer other items like a Cuban sandwich. I went BBQish and ordered their Double Brisket Burger, and Canadian with a large order of Poutine. I recommend checking out the menu before you go the first time just to make sure you see something you want. My brisket burger was very tender and easy to eat. I liked it even though the caramelized onion added a burnt taste. It was a lot of food. The flavor of the poutine was subtle, and was a lot of fries. High marks on their Cuban sandwich from my dinner companion. I liked the place, liked the people, liked the other customers who we chatted with. We are local but seldom make it out to the beach so nice vacation vibes rubbed off on us as well. We left full and happy.

I will definitely try more menu items in the future.

We had a few drinks (they give a GREAT pour of wine) & ordered food. We started with the stuffed jalapeños which were very tasty. We then both got the fried chicken - I got white meat & my husband got dark. I chose collard greens & a side salad for my sides. Everything was excellent - the chicken was so moist & came off the bone clean. You can tell this place knows what they are doing in terms of food. Collard greens were not salty like they normally are at other places. Would definitely come back again & perhaps try their BBQ next time! Get there early for bands, the place really fills up fast!

When I entered the restaurant I noticed a few tables to eat at and an order counter. The place looked bright and clean. A gentleman greeted me as I entered saying welcome...that was nice. As I looked at the menu I couldn't find brisket anywhere and then there it was - a sign saying they no longer cooked brisket. I was bummed to say the least but decided to order a combo plate with ribs and chicken anyway. The plate meal comes with two sides and a roll and a choice of barbecue sauce. When I ate it - the ribs were excellent and very tender and I enjoyed the smoked chicken too - all in all a great meal for the price, just wish they still had brisket.

Walk up to these guys and their smoker in a parking lot - super friendly, super knowledgeable about their food. Simple menu, but everything is AWESOME. We grabbed brisket dinner, rib dinner and an extra half chicken (it looked too good to pass up). The dinner has sides of incredible baked beans and potato salad. Then move one to grandma's dessert - we chose lemon cake and pound cake. But so many other choices were available - all home made. The desserts were incredibly good. Tip - absolutely order the brisket and ribs. For the chicken, they'll chop it in chunks with a cleaver for easy finger eating. I recommend asking to keep the half chicken whole and pull it apart and avoid the bone fragments. Get the hot sauce on everything- not too hot, but so tasty. The beans are crazy good, don't pass them up. You want BBQ - go here. Hams R Us is incredibly good food. Don't miss it.
