We had the best experience dining here! The service was attentive and warm. I started off with the freshly squeezed grapefruit juice that was refreshing and delicious followed by fried pickles which had a crunchy batter crust outside and were juicy on the inside. The baby back ribs were excellent and the pulled pork was so good. The chicken wings had great seasoning & were delicious too

This place was phenomenal. The pulled pork nachos are a must! My husband ordered the ribs and they were amazing, soft, fall off the bone meat. I ordered the brisket platter which had brisket, chicken tenders and pulled pork… DELICIOUS. I would come back here on my next visit and definitely recommend if you’re in the area. Also, their deck is pet friendly. 10/10.

Beautiful view of the bridges that span the river. Server was very attentive and the food was great. Had the triple combo which includes tasty ribs, pulled pork that was tender and juicy and fried chicken fingers that were very meaty inside and came with a tangy mustard dipping sauce and their own BBQ sauce which I’m sure was incorporated into the delicious beans. Dog friendly, too! If we had known, we would have brought them along….next time!

We stopped here for drinks and appetizers before boarding a river boat cruise. We sat on the deck overlooking the river. There was a slight drizzle but we stayed dry. We had a party of 10 and our server was attentive and friendly. We ordered wings, soft pretzels and loaded potato skins. All were good but the potato skins with bbq pork on them were amazing!

Beautiful restaurant, atmosphere and view. Sweet server, but I didn’t receive my salad until I asked, and that was after our entrees came. The server disappeared forever, and another server had to bring us utensils after our food came. The ribs were impossible to even get the meat off of. The best parts were my son’s wings, as well as my green beans, which were delicious.

My experience here was great! The portions were large and not too expensive for what you got. We sat on the deck overlooking the river and it was a lovely view. The heaters on the deck were on and it’s covered so the chilly rain wasn’t felt. The wings were some of the best I’ve had and the fish and chips were good! The fish was beer battered so the flavor was slightly different. I highly recommend the ribs as well, they were tender and buttery and delicious! One thing to note is that the menus for the deck versus the dining room are different, the deck has an abbreviated menu.

Had a banquet style meal with my whole family group. About 19 people in total. The staff said it was something they had just started. But it went off with hardly a hiccup! We did the ribs pulled pork and chicken tendies. The tendies were mid but everything else was delicious! And the craft beers were great too!!!

Beautiful scenery, amazing river views, short walk from downtown. Smoked gluten free gf wings were really good. Ribs are good, not great. Don’t love the sauce – too mass market, too grocery store. Staff is nice. Sat outside, it was warm even w a cool breeze. Fast service. Salad was good. Worth the walk, worth a visit – don’t plan on going back myself. #bbq #ribs #tourist barbecue ribs bbq cole slaw was good, not great. Not too sweet.
