Very cool spot for music and bbq. I came here to see a buddy's band and it's a great little venture to enjoy music over a few beers and food. The atmosphere is open and casual, kind of a corrugated metal and wood feel. I ordered the creme ale which was great. Very smooth, light hops, easy drinking. I also got the frito pie with brisket burnt ends and red Chile. This was very tasty but I'd go easier on the lettuce and the beans. Their red chile is moderately spicy, like a 5/10, and has a peppery note. Not bad at all. The burnt ends were sweet and fatty, very nice. I look forward to coming back for more music and a more BBQ forward plate. Come check it out for yourself!

We LOVE this place. We go for work happy hour. The BEST BBQ. Rudy's has nothing on this little spot. The best burnt ends, fries, coleslaw, mac n cheese and the fried pickles are incredible...everything is so good. Go there!!

Very good! Came in for lunch on a Sunday. I had the two meat plate with the half chicken and brisket burnt ends. I did have to send my burnt ends back from being cold, but the 2nd plate was perfect! Super good! My waitress Alya was super friendly and attentive. Prices were fine for the quality. I'd say for sure worth a stop if you're looking for barbecue and in the area!

Music was great but so loud you couldn't talk if you were inside, even in the next room. Food (pulled pork plate) was just ok for me. Hubs loved his burnt Ends and brisket. Kids said the Enterprise Sandwich (no hot links-- they were out) was good but not their favorite. There was a long line to be seated but only a handful of tables were full, so that didn't make sense. We couldn't start eating right away because our waitress kept forgetting silverware. Fried pickles were lightly breaded (borderline too lightly) but they were yummy. The weird polenta corn things in the salad tasted like fish. The smoked chicken in the salad had a beautiful smokiness to it but the pork did not. They were out of the chicken except for the salad which was a big disappointment once we knew how good it was. Cobbler wasn't good.

This place has the best BBQ in town. Erica was a great server and the food had a great taste and excellent portions. From the brisket to the potato salad to the loaded macaroni. Hands down this was the best BBQ I’ve ever had. I highly recommend it.

We were invited by some clients to listen to a jazz band playing live. This place is small but very nice. The live band was amazing. The ribs are amazing! I am not a fan of ribs due to lack of meat on many I have had before. These were cooked well and very meaty. We will go again another time.

The food was very good. The meat was moist and the sides provided a nice balance. The food was warm. Do not go here to sit down if you're in a hurry. Ordering ahead for takeout is probably a better option. The staff /kitchen seemed disorganized. We were seated for ten minutes with no recognition from anyone. There seemed to be enough wait staff, but for several minutes there was no wait staff visible. Maybe the kitchen was short staffed. Finally, I told the hostess that no one had waited on us. She seemed surprised, even though she had seated us. This took another minute or two. Our waitress had waited on and served the table right next to us without noticing us at all. When she arrived we immediately ordered The Sampler, afraid it would be another lengthy wait if we waited for drinks. They were out of chicken and smoked ribs. They gave us extra pork and we tried the fried ribs. We are not fans of the fried ribs. Wait staff had to go up and down a set of stairs and through a carry out space to retrieve food orders. I think this also contributed to longer wait times for food.

I really like the burnt ends. Although 2 of the 4 cubes were tough like jerky. Tasted so good. I also lived the ribs. Perfectly seasoned. So tender. Would order again. The brisket was tasty too. Lastly the pulled pork decent. I didn't really eat much because I liked the other meats more. BBQ beans were a good side. Mac and cheese was decent. I would come back and order the burnt ends and ribs again.

Me and my buddy ordered the three meat plate with burnt ends, brisket, pulled pork and sides were Mac and cheese and coke slaw. We were seated really fast, received our food in a quick and professional manner. Everything was DELICIOUS. I would definitely recommend stopping by even if you’re passing through town. If I was in town again I would definitely stop by.

This was absolutely a delicious experience. The food was incredible. My partner loved his beer, he got a scotch ale. I got the 3 meat combo plate, I got the brisket, hot link and pulled pork. The brisket was soooo good, definitely the best one. The Mac and cheese was good my only complaint was it wasn't hot. The fried okra was some of the best I've had. My partner got the fried catfish. He loved it. Said it was very flavorful. Our waiter was so nice and attentive. Constantly refilling my water and checking on us. This will definitely be a go to for excellent beer and BBQ. The vibe was really chill and they had great music playing. There is also a stage for live music. We'll definitely go on a night they have that.

Great staff. The food was very quick. The brews were really great. I'm actually from this area and to see what they have done to this location warms up my heart. It's only the beginning and I'm happy to be along for the journey. Shout out to the manager Julia is super cool. Always very helpful and kind. Maddy has a great attitude and provides value and service. The sandwich that you see demolished had brisket and pulled pork with extra sauce on the side. The beer is the lush Imperial stout. Enjoy the food guys 💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Newly reopened, up & coming bbq joint is fantastic. Burnt ends were full flavored, deliciousness, brisket was pull apart flaky fork tender, with a good pink smoke line. Sweet barbecue sauce had a good balance, complimented the meat with a light pour and mild twang little heat. Hot sauce had very light pour with great kick. The greens were wonderful with red chili and the mustard potato salad was very classic mild relish taste. Purple cabbage & carrot slaw delicious sweet mayo based refreshing. Spiral noodle Mac & cheese had a very mild Cheddar cheese sauce topped with shredded cheese and some crunch. Great atmosphere & vibe yeah certainly worth stopping in. Plans for live music in the works, wonderful staff, I got to meet the owner, great guy you can tell he really enjoys what he's doing. 🔥
