Best BBQ in the area. The menu is fresh and varied. The atmosphere is relaxing and the cocktails are great and innovative. Their ordering system is through your phone but they’re also happy to help if you need it. Tips are not required as it’s all accounted for. Don’t miss out!

Our group of 6 had a wonderful experience last night for dinner. My wife and I had a full rack of their St. Louis pork ribs smothered in lingonberry BBQ sauce. The meat was perfectly cooked with a soft pull apart tenderness that left a clean bone. The sauce was great; if you like lightly sweetened lingonberries, you’re going to love this. We also had an order of smoked cauliflower which was new to us. It was tasty and novel, almost like a meaty veggie. We also had pit beans and potato salad. All yummy and way too much so we brought a bunch of it home. So A+ on the food. Other highlights include friendly service (it wasn’t busy so we had engaging conversations with the manager/server/host? – wish I had asked more about her role); overall aesthetic (nice old converted building with brick walls and high tin ceiling) and design theme (LOVE the 20th sci-fi comic book look); ordering simplicity (via QR code and Toast app, though it took our older friends a moment to figure it out); and beer choices (including Surly, from Minneapolis (we’ve visited their brewery – it’s big and fun)). Great location with easy parking. Excellent experience all around. Highly recommended!

Service was terrible, girl was rude at the register. I paid $27 for a side of pulled pork and Mac and cheese. Food was ok but not worth the money. They charge extra for take out orders and I paid cash, so it wasn’t a credit card fee. Definitely not going back.

Spectacular hidden gem. How is this not the most sought-after bbq around? Lima is not that far, and this is worth the drive. Friendly attentive staff. Amazing food.

We recently shared a delicious dinner of ribs (so tender), potatoes, beans, and dilled cucumbers. Easy to order right from the table. The waitress offered to help if we needed it. Food was served promptly. The waitress checked on us several times to see if we needed anything and the owner came by our table for a visit as well. We will definitely be back!

We’re so lucky to have such an amazing food option right in Lima! My family has been several times and we are always delighted with the quality of the food and cocktails. The at table ordering system makes it so easy to order a drink before casually deciding what to eat! The Mac and cheese is a perfect choice for my picky child while the rest of us get to eat some seriously top notch BBQ. The ribs are always tender and delicious and the brisket has perfectly crisped edges.

Nice little restaurant! The food was really good and came out super quick! Technically there is no waitstaff – you scan a QR code and order and pay through an app – so tipping is not expected. We left a tip for the pure fact that we had good food and quick service and did not have to clear our own table. Will be back!

My wife and I stopped by on a rainy Saturday from a recommendation from a local. We each had a brisket sandwich and Potato salad. Prices seemed a bit high… but it is a no tip place… and… the Sandwich is not for the faint of heart! Piled high with meat! The brisket was well prepared, and their take on a barbecue sauce was a good compliment. Not too sweet!
