Feedback
The restaurant is known for its quick and tasty bites, particularly their great burgers and ribs. One reviewer was impressed by how well they handled a nut allergy, going as far as checking the ingredients for allergen information. The service was praised as friendly and attentive, all for a reasonable price. However, some reviewers were disappointed with the portion sizes for the price, citing dishes like the Beef Brisket and chicken stack as not meeting expectations. Another reviewer had a negative experience with overcooked food, uninterested staff, and a cold, uncomfortable atmosphere. On the other hand, several visitors raved about the quality of the BBQ dishes, highlighting tender beef and pork, cheesy mac n cheese, and delicious sauces. The menu variety was appreciated with quick service noted, although some found the prices a bit high. Overall, the hidden gem of a restaurant was lauded for its unique atmosphere, helpful service, and tasty food, making it a favorite spot for many in Edinburgh.
This is a nice restaurant for a quick bite, they have great burgers and ribs. What i really appriciated was the way they handled my daughters nut-allergy. The waitress even looked up the ingredients and allergy information for the burger bread. Great service and for a reasonable price.
