"Absolutely phenomenal BBQ experience! We ordered the combo platter with tri tip and brisket burnt ends, and every bite was packed with smoky, melt-in-your-mouth flavor. The poblano burger was equally incredible—juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of bold, delicious flavor.
We also had the pleasure of meeting Daniel, the chef behind it all, and he was absolutely delightful. You can tell he pours his heart into the food, and it shows. Our service was top-notch from start to finish—attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home.
This place is a must-visit. Can’t recommend it enough! We will be back (many times!!)."

"Got the Friday Fish Plate, $27 plus tax and tip. Service was good but not great. Food was the worst. My friend had a bbq 2 meat plate, she didn’t like anything. My fish was good not great, it was about 6 nuggets of catfish. Some rice they called like a Cajun rice, flavor was actually good but extremely salty and I like salt. The Cole slaw was gross and weird with corn. The cornbread was dry, chalky and flavorless. Was not worth the $70 I paid for that day between the two of us and a tip."
