5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 7, 2012

Always great food that's affordable and locally owned. We try to make it over once a week (I would be here more but the queen says because I would literally eat here every day) we are here now actually. That means I win. More

“Great Ribs, friendly staff”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 4, 2012

Our first time in here. It's near our home, so we stopped by to try some ribs. Fairly new place, very clean and very friendly and helpful staff. Good choice of types of barbacue ribs and sandwiches as well as other selections. We got a large slab of ribs "to-go" and they were excellent. We will be going back! More

The staff is friendly and very accommodating. These guys know what they are doing, their barbecue does not disappoint! people take... More
