The Texas toast was undercooked, resembling bread more than toast. The brisket was average but also a bit dry. The sauce was tasty if you enjoy spicy flavors, which I do. Overall, the service was too slow given the number of staff available, and the food was actually worse than what you'd find at larger corporate chain restaurants.

What does it really mean when someone says, "You’re an American, act like it"? And what does the term "globalist" really imply? Some people link it to groups like mine—Jews. (You can visit their website for more information, and if you agree with their perspective, feel free to keep dining there.) I used to live nearby and visited a few times because it was convenient. The food was decent but not outstanding, and the service could be very slow at times. However, now that the restaurant has adopted a right-wing stance, I won’t be returning.

There's a wide variety of menu options, along with some intriguing cocktails, beers, and wines to choose from. While the portions aren’t heaped up, they are definitely satisfying, ensuring you’ll leave full.

Unfortunately, the food did not live up to my expectations. It had a microwaved taste, resembling what I might warm up as leftovers at home. The sides felt like they were just heat-and-serve, lacking any genuine homemade flavor. Considering the prices and the overall food quality, I left feeling quite disappointed.

Make America Hate Again. People like you are responsible for many of the problems in this country but offer no coherent solutions which we need to overcome them. Politics are best kept separate from business... if one wants their business to prosper. The food and service at Ribs bottomed out years ago and you've done little to improve either choosing instead to drive current and potential customers away with divisive signage, divisive merchandise, and attitude. Some businesses make money despite their best efforts not to... but it will catch up with them. EDIT 8/10/24: I see that nothing has changed regarding the atmosphere and the food is still underwhelming and EXPENSIVE. The owner's attitude and business model are better suited to Texas or Florida.
