marty phillips2023-07-23Wife had the 1/2 slab ribs and loved them. I had 1/2 chicken with rice and beans. Chicken was cooked perfect and I really liked the rice and beans.

Brad2023-07-04Excellent food, I can't wait to go back and try the pulled beef and pork. And all this time it was right around the corner! Owner chatted with us, and I can't say enough good things about the place.
Lin Breeden2023-07-04The most amazing food I've had in a long time! We had the #2, more than enough for 2 adults. All 3 sauces were very good, and the baked beans topped my own. The owner was very friendly and attentive. Also the entire restaurant was extremely clean. Can't wait to go back!
N Mac2023-07-02We ate our way around the city in the past week. This was an amazing experience! The food was over the top and my son said the ribs were the best he had all week. We actually ordered another round of ribs and fish tacos, the ½ chicken was amazingly tender with crispy skin. Give this gem a try!
