Definitely hit this spot if you want some savory, smokey BBQ with a sweet and tangy sauce. I got the pulled pork platter with potato salad and baked Mac and cheese.

Just as good as I remember it! Haven't been there since I worked next door in the '90's and it's almost exactly the same. I'm a fan of their brisket, potato salad and beans. They have the best beans in the world and I appreciate that the potato salad is made with dill pickles rather than typical sweet relish.

I am giving 5 stars for the food. Customer service can be lacking sometimes. I will continue to get the good food despite the customer service. Update: the last few times I have been by the customer service is much improved, thank you

This was my 2nd visit to location, and just like my first visit, the food was delicious. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I ordered the chicken plate with potato salad and mac & cheese. The chicken was moist and had a very nice flavor, the potato salad was ok it was a little to heavy on the mayo this time but it was still good, and the mac & cheese was good as well. I my only complaint is I wish they made a sweet bbq sauce, but if you like a vinegar based sauce, then you'll enjoy their sauce.

Absolutely AMAZING food!! Gotta recommend the Sampler platter! Holy smokes that's some dam good meats!! Love the bake beans, and mixed greens as well! We are from Ohio, and Arkansas, must say BEST BBQ WE HAVE EVER TRIED! Prices and portions are well worth the trip in itself. The service was spot on and very friendly, A MUST TRY!

The food here is better than amazing, it's beyond everything you'd expect. Flavor, presentation, I can't say enough!! My favorite thing about this place is definitely the customer service!!! They treated everyone well. I will definitely be a regular customer. Next on the list to try is the whole smoked catfish.
