Add the Sweet & Zesty sauce with the Georgia Mustard sauce. The sweet is muted by the spice, but at a perfect balance. DO IT!
🎀Ariane Anderson🎀April 23, 2011Don't be shy, EVERY plate is delicious! Don't forget to try the sauces and save room for bread pudding! (so good your grandma will want the recipe)
Rick RyanApril 23, 2018EVERYTHING is good here! They have a new Wilbur’s revenge barbecue sauce that’s hotter than Devils’ Spit! Delicious!
- Charles TinkerFebruary 26, 2015Damn good ribs. The BBQ spots in Detroit are slim pickings so it's nice to have options.
- Olivier P.May 19, 2013If you like meat you should like this place. And if you want to spice it up, try the Wilbur's Revenge XXX Hot sauce.
Kourtney NotestineApril 8, 2011Yvonne is an excellent server! Ask for her by name and you won't be disappointed. Oh, and get dessert, it's all yummy :P
Sandra MundraDecember 27, 2014Some changes have been made and not for the better. My rib tips were chewy and tough! They are mostly a pound of bones instead of "tips"! The food was old. Wow. I won't be coming back! 😩
Robert MillerApril 11, 2011Two meat combo w/ BBQ Chopped Pork and Rib Tips w/ drunken apples and potato salad. Mmmmm.
Danielle AdamsMarch 26, 2011I love this place!!!! This one is much better than the one on the East side!
Chris KaufmanJanuary 30, 2010If you ask really nice a bunch of times, the waitress will cave in and stamp your lunch card at dinner time.
They have real brewed sweet tea here. Just like they do South of the Mason-Dixon.
If your bartender is named Tony call him Wang for buck drafts
E 🅱December 19, 2012If you've ever eaten authentic barbecue from Texas, don't eat here. Your taste buds will forever hate you!
The smoked salmon spread is an amazing appetizer, even for those not into fish.

"Cashier Leoni was very nice and efficient. She must be new since she bagged the stuff in my canvas bags so nicely rather than looking at me like I was from Mars."
