    Overall, it was really nice atmosphere. It was very unique. Food was good. We would definitely go back. However, we were disappointed with the brisket. It was a bit dry and they were out of chicken which we found out after we had decided that’s what we wanted. Overall, I would go back.

    A great place to bring friends and family, food and a great collection of alcoholic beverages. A added bonus was the entertainment from lonesome cowboy. Enjoyed the tunes and the staff was vey accommodating for our large group.

    Beer was good, wine not so much. Ribs over seasoned. Brisket and meatballs dry. Interesting room and idea, foods quality needs a step up.

    Had a hard time finding a comfortable chair. Meat was a little too spicy for us. Sides were delicious! Corn bread delightful. Broccolini very tasty.

    A very pleasant dining experience. The foodis always delicious. The live music is a bit too loud and makes it hard to have a conversation. One of our favourite neighbourhood joint.
