Customer Review Summary
The criticism centers on flavor. Reviewers describe pork with mild smoke that needs sauce, wings like chicken jerky, flavorless ribs, and a stew that tasted like water and Tabasco. One order of pork potatoes, fries, onion rings and pie arrived with the pie tipped over in its plastic and meat that seemed not fresh, and the extra charge for Ranch packs drew a complaint. Slaw is described as sweet and sour, and the beans as merely serviceable. One group of ten celebrating a surprise birthday ordered brisket, chicken, pulled pork, sausage and nachos, and said the staff helped pull off the surprise.

“Excellent portions! Decent prices. Funnel cake fries were very tasty!”

“My family and I absolutely LOVE this place. Some of my family lives out of town and still talks about this place and how much they miss it. The baked beans and cheese fries are absolutely amazing. The cheese fries are so nostalgic to me as they remind me of bowling alley fries from when I was a kid. The chicken sandwich I had melted in mouth with every bit. I am so thankful to have something local that's this amazing.”

“Worst BBQ ever and the Stew tastes like water & Tabasco sauce. Wings are like Chicken Jerkey. Ribs are completely flavorless.”
- Wayne Dollar
“Great food and service. They actually have tender brisket and great pork ribs. Coke slaw is the sweet vinegar kind, beans are serviceable. You can order ahead, and don't think you can wait till nightfall to get ribs as they will sell out”
