It was National Hotdog Day And their chili dog was delicious and the fries were hot and seasoned lightly with salt The Kidlet loved the BBQ pork sand and the Hub loved the BBQ chicken and ribs and slaw and beans. I’d go back to eat there. There was only 3 people running the place due to staffing issues. 3 peeps ate for 45$ Food took about 15 min and half dining room was full of patrons.

We went on a Saturday for all you can eat ribs, such wonderful staff. Delicious and reasonably priced food, and a very clean atmosphere! The corn was very plain, not the best side option. I wish they had Mac n cheese!

UPDATE: After speaking to the Manager Pamela she handled the situation and I must say those Fresh ribs were exactly what I was looking for. Thanks

Brenda has always been so friendly and cheerful as she keeps the dining room spotless and clean and offers hush puppies, extra plates, etc. to dine-in guest. The food was good and we split a combo, which was plenty for two. I was able to have protein (pork barbecue) and green beans, and my husband got the ribs he had been craving, along with slaw, chicken and hush puppies.

The food was great, as usual. But the girl working up front today needs more instruction on professional behavior and work ethics. When we were there she kept walking away from her job while on the phone, sounded like she was arguing with someone. She went outside a few times and also stood by the bathroom door while still on the phone. I really don’t believe anyone gets that many breaks during a shift and definitely not during the time we were there. I don’t believe her teammates were very happy with her either. Not very professional behavior and not someone I would want my family around. Maybe she could give more attention to her job than to the person on the phone with her?
