The best thing about the place are the staff. They are super nice - down home people.

The food is average at best. My son had rib sandwich and he didn't or couldn't finish because it was so dry. He was very disappointed.

The brisket was tender but they had to warm it up. No kidding. The staff didn't know anything about the brisket ie which part they had. They brought it to me and I was tell it was the flat. Then they warmed it up and I ate. Taste was ok but nothing to write home about.

My wife had a baked potato with pulled pork. She left most of it- the potato wasn't cooked all the way.

The appetizers were decent and probably the best part of the meal.

if you read the reviews on yelp I think you'll see it's a real hit or miss kind of place.

I will say it was a bit pricey.

Being local(ish) I've eaten there several times. It's tourist Q. Not terrible. Not great. You get a lot of it. The very fact that you're reading this means you probably won't be thrilled. Folks who don't have an avid interest in barbecuing and grilling will think it's just fine. My 2 cents.
