This place has delicious grill. The brisket is tasty (only a little dry in my opinion, but my sister loved it, and she is the right diet). Cole Slav is on site....

This popular barbecue joint offers a mix of hits and misses in terms of food quality, service, and pricing. While some dishes like the cornbread and St. Louis Ribs stand out, others fall short in flavor and portion size. The staff is friendly, but service can be slow and inexperienced at times. Overall, the atmosphere is welcoming, making it a good spot for a casual meal with friends. Despite some mixed reviews, there is potential for improvement, especially in consistency and communication with customers. With a varied menu and attentive service, this restaurant is worth a visit for a taste of classic BBQ fare.
