"Amazing food. The specials are always delicious and the 4/20 specials are not to be missed, me and my girlfriend go every year for the stoner sticks."

"A local gem!! Taylor and Rodger are the best. The food is the best. I cannot get enough of shore points food, honestly. My go to is the firecracker shrimp appetizer and Mac daddy burger but anything you order is a slam dunk. I will always get a flavored lemonade every single time I go. Their queso is so fresh and full of real ingredients. One of my husbands favorites is the q bird sandwich.
I first found out about shore points from my clinical instructor in graduate school who was raving about their bbq parfaits and taco Tuesdays (both of which I don’t think are still there). She gave me a gift card at the end of my clinical but that is when they closed for renovations back in 2020ish. I guarded that gift card like my life depended on it to not lose it during the time they were closed!"

"I’d call it the BEST small hole in the wall bbq restaurant that has kind of a Mexican twist! I would really say their food is 10/10. Some things you get and you feel like it’s gourmet (drooling emoji)!!!! Weekly specials are some of my absolute favorites. Everyone is so nice that works there as well. Makes it feel very homey. Do not miss out on the mozzarella sticks! (Not pictured because we devoured them) we got the thanksgiving sandwich and the Mac daddy burger as well. In the past we’ve had the egg rolls that were burnt pork belly ends and Mac and cheese inside!!!!! They were a special I believe and they were out of this world! And we got tacos that were also just as good ! Highly recommend"
