“ Man! What a great time I had at this place! The food was better than expected and the service was great with friendly people. Now, I'm begging and pleading that if you go, try the wings! They are amazing! I didn't expect an appetizer to be so delicious. I also enjoyed a New York strip steak that was cooked to my liking. I was in town for a graduation and I'm so glad I gave this place a try. ”
“ Came here from KC and this was a perfect stop. I got the pulled pork and was super happy. Sandwich was delicious and a nice proportion. I'd definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone. ”
“ Unique stop for food. Service was exceptional the young waiter Hunter had great recommendations and checked on us the right amount. The food was very fresh and some unique takes on traditional dishes. The tomato soup was very rich with deep fresh flavors. The coleslaw was very creamy and delicious. The seared tuna was perfectly prepared. The bed of sauce had a very unique taste with a hint of BBQ. The very thin sliced cucumber and red onion was absolutely perfect paring with the Tuna. The whole dish was a pleasent surprise in a BBQ bar resturant. Definitely 5 star service and food. ”
