Don’t waste your money. I ordered the “pulled pork” sandwich for $8.00. It was served on a hot dog bun! They didn’t even toast the bun. The meat was pork that might have been cooked in a crock pot. They used “Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce” straight out of the jug. It wasn’t even doctored up with their own seasoning. There were no pickles, cabbage or anything else on the sandwich. It came with a child-sized bag of chips (the type you add into a child’s school lunch) and a bottle of water. They offered no bags and provided one napkin.

Expensive for portion size, but good food and comfy atmosphere. Perfect sit-down restaurant for groups. I’ve been here 3 times and each time, the customer service is great. Last time I went during lunch and they ran out of brisket which is my favorite. I settled for the ribs which I wasn’t as satisfied with, but they were decent. Their brisket is by far their best meat choice in my option.

The initial contact was great, we were provided a quote for 50 people and we were told multiple meats and sides would be provided for our unit (Army) function. The day of the event not enough food was provided and they tried to say we never provided a head count even though they gave us a quote saying we were going to have 50 people there. The plates were over priced for the amount of food that was provided and the food was cold. There was not enough food for the number of guest there so families were not fed. The driver got a call and was informed that their other event had more revenue coming in so the truck left prior to feeding everyone instead of getting additional food.

Friendly stand up counter service. Brisket was great. Corn good. Other sides very average. The home made pudding for dessert was yummy as was the friendliness of the owner stopping by our table. Nice on water seating on this great sunny Northwest day.. A bald eagle perched above us making it a perfect lunch.

I was walking on the side of the interstate, on my way to meet up with friends at the Warrior Zone when a car pulled up next to me. The man asked me if I needed a ride and I said sure. It was going to be at least an hour walk so I took the offer and got in. He then told me he had to stop at the restaurant and check on the workers. He gave me a BBQ Pulled pork and a root beer and I met some people, he is just a outstanding person who was offering to help people he didn’t even know, I would recommend the food too, it’s savory and mouth watering BBQ was amazing with cheese and patty all with a smoky grill taste. It was amazing and an overall great experience, it’s good to see people going above and beyond for others especially in this day and age. I won’t forget this moment and will definitely recommend eating here.

Went there today for the first time, based almost entirely upon previous reviews. I ended up with the Cuban sandwich. Sandwich came with option of fries, salad or something else that I cannot recall. I had the fries and they were excellent; very crispy and fresh. My sandwich came on a pretzel bun, which is always a plus. I removed a single star because the food took almost 30 minutes to come out. That’s way too long for a place like this, but the waitress was very apologetic and stated it was not common. I’ll definitely give it another go or two and update as appropriate.

We were a party of 6 and we all left very disappointed. The food was served room temperature not even close to being warm. The rib tips were so over cooked they were hard and very dry- the beans were under cooked and the mashed potatoes needed seasoning- the brisket was severed in a pool of grease. We left this place hungry because we couldn’t eat the food- high prices for very low quality food.

The owners were given a head-count in advance (under the number that arrived) yet they ran out of ribs for our guests. Brisket that I received was fatty in all portion. The presentation of food appeared to be left-over from their lunch menu. A roll of bathroom paper towels was placed at the end of the counter for us to use as napkins.
