    Pork ribs were good. Black eyed peas were overcooked. Collards had too much sugar

    Horrible food,Tasteless, crappy and unseasoned. An embarrassment to BBQ. The waitress was cute, making up for the lack luster in the food, Save your time..grill at home. Where the food is seasoned.

    Decent BBQ. The brisket is good. The mac & cheese and fries are just ok. There are much much better options are around NYC now.

    The Mac and cheese made me a little sad. It doesn't taste much like cheese.

    As a southern BBQ snob, I'd give this place a 7/10. Meat was meat-tastic but the sauce was too sweet.
