   The food was very good. The waiter took out order - brought the food quickly. Then he disappeared. Had to ask a different server to refill drink. After waiting over 30 minutes for check I had to go to manager to ask for check and it took another 10 minutes to pay.

   Food was great! Brisket tacos were delicious, as was the stand alone Short Rib. The Tri Tip was okay. We added carrots, baked potato, and asparagus fries on the side and all were tasty.

   Pretty lousy experience. Waitress took 15 mins to greet us after we were seated. We ordered an artichoke dip as an appetizer and two main courses with some sides. Waitress brought out the mains before the appetizer, I thought it was a mistake so I let her know we were still waiting for the dip. Her response was "well these came out first, did you want the appetizer first?" Naturally I said yes and the solution for the waitress was to leave our food on the kitchen window until our appetizer arrived. 5 seconds after our app arrives, she drops us out two mains which are now cold. As she sees my frustrated look she proceeds to argue with me telling me "you said you wanted everything at the same time". After we asked for boxes for the rest of our cold food, she comes back to drop off the boxes AND the check (which we didn't ask for because we wanted dessert) clearly signaling us to leave. This place lacks serious service and hospitality training. Also never saw a manager in the restaurant on a busy Friday night, resulting in a free for all for the servers with no accountability. Highly disappointing

   Excellent food. Nachos were giving to us complimentary for our short wait. This place is a must visit. Great menu even for non barbecue fans.

   They had the table ready for my team and they had a great time. Price of food was adequate and everything was great! I appreciate the help and the convenience that OpenTable brings for booking these reservations.

   Truely amazing entrees of select beef barbecue and full flavored side dishes. The 3 back ribs with brisket was cooked to perfection, meaty juicy goodness. We found ourselves sharing… sides are great and also designed to share. Great meal. Beer was good also. I had Hazy IPA and it was clean and refreshing.

   Bathroom was disgusting. How clean is a kitchen when bathroom is so filthy?

    Excellent service with outstanding food. Highly recommend. We were a group of 20 and it was perfect place for a large group. Everyone loved their food!
