“Weekday lunch ”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 days ago NEW via mobile

On the plaza where all the beautiful people are. Excellent service from beginning to end. The burnt ends are the signature menu item along with the pulled pork but the pork ribs looked very good. They also have big meaty beef ribs which are kind of hard to find.

“Dang good BBQ”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 days ago NEW

Get the Creamy Corn Bake, Burnt Ends, anything brisket, house-made lemonade, but save room for Mom's Carrot Cake. It is stupid good. You can't go wrong, unless you don't go.

“For even a Texan, this was a very good place to eat.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 days ago NEW

There will be a slight wait ( 20 minutes for us showing up at 12:30 ) probably but well worth it. We enjoyed the burnt ends lunch special. Even the iced tea was very good. Might not be with Pecan Lodge in Dallas or Franklin's in Austin, but better than most.

“Great Kansas City BBQ!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 days ago NEW

You walk into this place and it smells like heaven!! The smokey, sweet, tangy aroma makes your mouth water! We had a party of five and made the decision to split our meals. You will leave stuffed just eating half of a meal. I would recommend this to anyone unless you want to take home a doggy bag for another... More

Great location for a business lunch. Have met manny people there for various business related lunches as well as individuals for social meetings. Great location close to downtown. The food is very good but the portions seem to get smaller and smaller.

“Upscale BBQ!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 week ago

The food is tasty! I love dipping my fries in the baked beans. The prices are a little high, but it's worth it. Service is always great, as well as the food!
