Got our food fast, But it was cold, I had a brisket plate & my daughter had pork nachos, (both were cold). I went to find a mgr and had her come feel the brisket to show it was cold.
She said they keep their food warm to 170°, but this was Cold.
The brisket actually looks cold in the picture I added. She took our plates & brought back slightly warmer with new brisket & pulled pork. All n all The Food tasted really good! Mac N cheese was delicious.
I prefer my food to be served hot tho.
Food would have been great if it had been hot.

We had a good experience here.
The brisket had more fat on it than I am used to.
I was able to eat around the fatty parts.
They had a couple of burnt ends in my plate; those are my favorite.
The BBQ beans were very good.
Overall a good experience.
The decor was nice also.
Several of the tabletops were of natural wood with the bark still on the side, quite rustic.

We were wanting to try some real Memphis BBQ while we were in town and this place was recommended.
My husband who is extremely critical of food, loved everything he ordered.
I got a pulled pork sandwich and potato salad.
He got pork nachos and a 3 meat combo plate.
Everything was really good.
Definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area!
