Classic no frills BBQ.Big smoker in the back with indoor and outdoor seating.Top notch Beef BBQ. The beef ribs and brisket were some of the best I have ever had.The pork ribs were good but kind of dry.The pastrami was quite good, but I don't think the "wagyu" label really mattered.I have never liked truffle flavor before but I found myself devouring the truffle mac and cheese.We had some coleslaw but I do wish there were a few more vegetable/fiber options.I didn't look too closely but they appeared to have a good beer selection.I will definitely be back for more of the beef.
Incredibly tender brisket… cooked perfectly.Truffle Mac n Cheese was unique and very rich with amazing flavor.A little pricier than some other barbecue establishments, but the portion sizes make up for that. Plenty of indoor outdoor seating with eclectic decor to top off the rad & tasty experience!
Getting out of our vehicle we could smell the BBQ Smokey goodness! We ordered the brisket, tri tip, chicken, mac & cheese, custard filled cornbread and banana pudding. All three meat choices were mouth watering delicious.The sauces available were are good but the meat was fantastic by itself. The Mac and cheese was really good.We were impressed.It is hard to find a good Mac & cheese. The custard filled cornbread a new thing for us to try.I am not a fan of cornbread but the middle part was good to me :) We were there for the meat anyway. The staff was friendly and patient. The restaurant was clean. There is also a mostly covered outdoor patio. We were craving BBQ and this definitely made us happy!
