This spot has been on my list for the past 3 years and haven’t had an opportunity to stop by or they were closed. WELL WORTH THE WAIT!

Overall, the food was decent. I would come back for the meats and some of the sides.

The ribs were some of the best west of Kansas City. Nice bark, gently pulled off the bone, just like they should. Really, they were that good. Brisket sandwich was really good too.

Great BBQ. Had the pulled pork and brisket. This is pretty much a take out joint so you can eat in your car, which some folks did, or take it to your home/hotel. Brisket was awesome. Also had their mac-n-cheese, which was crazy good. I am sure my cholesterol spiked but it was worth it.

Go on post hike here and you won’t regret it. Amazing ribs and brisket, ask for the hot bbq sauce, mac and cheese is well seasoned. My friends and I couldn’t stop saying “wow!” while we were eating

It’s a takeout place, which I didn’t know going in, but that didn’t affect how I enjoyed the food. Some of the best Philly cheesesteaks in the bay.

Good ribs, not good cornbread, good portion, quick service and friendly staff. You order, pick up and can sit in your car and eat. Probably not the most healthy meal, but was good to try. The corn bread is made in a muffin style, very small, stale and dry, won’t recommend it.

Pricey for middle of the road BBQ. Pulled pork was dry but drowned in BBQ sauce it was good. Ribs were tasty but dry. Mac and cheese was gross.

Food was good, but they forgot to give me the 1/2 pounds of brisket I ordered. Has to go back and tell them. They questioned if I looked in my bag. Of course I did! Customer service was okay at best.

This food is good. Got the pulled pork sandwich and the brisket sandwich and the meat was juicy and perfectly cooked. Saw this place on my way to Grey Whale Cove and saw the long line stretching down the street so thought it would be worth a gander and boy was I not mistaken. The sauce that comes with the sandwich has just the right amount of spice to it to really set off meat and give it that extra flavor. Got the last of the brisket and really glad I did because it was amazing, perfect amount of fat on the meatband bbq to perfection. The sides are tasty though I would recommend the potato salad the most had loads of flavor and no onions which is a plus for me. The cornbread is good comes in a little muffin though I wish it had been warmed and came with butter. The beans in rice was bland had no spices at all I guess I could have mixed in the sandwich sauce but hindsight always 20/20 right. They had a lot of canned beverages to choose from but I am most appreciative that they had Squirt as thats my favorite and most places don’t carry it. Staff is great and friendly and the service is super fast by the time I finished my order the food was out in about a minute no joke, so if you’re in the mood for BBQ or just good food in general definitely check this place out.
