The service was also lacking, earning another score of 2. The atmosphere was decent, but only received a 3. Considering the meal cost between $20 and $30 per person, I was hoping for a better overall experience.

Every dish was bursting with flavor and meticulously prepared. I particularly enjoyed the sausage and baby back ribs, which I highly recommend. The coleslaw added a refreshing crunch, while the fries were delightfully crispy and tasty. The service was equally commendable, with attentive staff who ensured we had everything we needed. They were friendly and efficient, enhancing our overall experience. The atmosphere was charming, ideal for a relaxed lunch. In summary, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a wonderful meal.

Busy as well. Got the beef and chicken combo, full pork rack and half chicken meal. All were well cooked and seasoned. Only complaint was they gave me only 1 3oz container of bbq sauce for 3 dinner boxes and and large side of fries.
