"The food was amazing and the staff was very pleasant. Spoke to the owner and he was very attentive. Enjoyed the outdoor atmosphere. Reasonable prices too. Worth the drive for us. Will be returning."

— Angel O.

"I enjoyed the smokiness and flavors in the BBQ. The brisket sandwich was great, and the smoked wings crunchy exterior reminded me of candied bacon. They were a bit rich for my liking, but they were moist which is what I was looking for. I would defintely want to try some other items on the menu when I am in the area again. They have some outdoor shaded seating and picnic tables which is also a plus!"

— CJ
