Great place for a cozy dinner with comfort food! I had the Pit Smoked Barbecued Brisket Sandwich and the Bourbon baked beans and corn bread were sublime. Husband had the cheeseburger that was huge.

Awesome place to eat! The staff are very friendly. The food is made from scratch, fresh, and delicious. We enjoyed everything we ordered; nachos, fried pickles, BLT, hot dogs, and fries. The prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be back.

We came here for early dinner after movie. The atmosphere is warm and inviting but you walk right into a big open bar and off to the to the right is seating. Some improvements since the last time I was here they’ve lowered the ceiling and added a divider wall between like a party room or an extra room in the back. Since we were there early there were definitely was not a lot of people here and the place was cold. They put the fireplace on but it took a long time for the room to even start to warm up. I mean you’re a restaurant expecting guests, I would expected you take the steps to keto your guest comfortable. The staff were very friendly and attentive we did not order an appetizer and you were not served a bread basket either. My husband ordered a hamburger and fries and he had a large ordered plate of fries. I had brisket, garlic potatoes, and the season vegetable which was sweet peppers, zucchini, carrots. I was very disappointed with my sides, my seasoned vegetables were mostly peppers strips and I have to say if I had to put it into a cup it wouldn’t be no more than 1/4 of a cup of vegetables and no more than 1/4 of a cup of mashed potatoes so very disappointing. However the food did taste good but I had to go home and eat some more vegetables.

Food was ok overall. Clean restaurant but outside was riddled with bees (not their fault). Mud pie was pretty good.

Been coming here for awhile, glad is still open (under new owners/management) Great place, hospitable and friendly (chef owner (Mark) greets you and Ellie served us – they are both friendly people person), spacious, outdoor seating, great smoked, fresh food and the corn bread for a cause was to die for (secret recipe)…We will be back again, next time for Sunday Brunch.

I had the Skirt Steak with Signature Burnt Onions Sandwich and fries. The steak was a perfect medium rare just like I asked. It was also delicious. Fries were pretty good, too. My wife had the American Classic Burger and she said it was very good. It was also cooked perfectly to medium which she had specified. Service was friendly.

Excellent food and excellent service. The owner/chef was so incredibly accommodating. All the food we ordered was fantastic, but extra praise for the cornbread, which is a must try. While on first glance, the menu seems meat-heavy, there are a lot of options for everyone. My friend declared the salad she had (made vegetarian) as “the best salad she ever had.” Great place, look forward to returning!

Nice place, I’ve never ate here before but heard they had recently remodeled. Spacious restaurant with two out door seating areas, one is a screened in porch the other is a outdoor patio. Large rectangular bar in the center of the restaurant anchors the interior space.
