Rudest service I can remember having anywhere. Server tried to prevent me from ordering at bar. Later when our party needed a table, bartender said to people at the bar: you need to sit your ass down

Come on Tuesdays when they do smoked wings. With their rub Huge and meaty!

It's the real thing, so worth the extra cost.

A little piece of Texas here in DC? You can pretend, anyway. Don't forget to try a bottle of Shiner.

Tried several meats... They were all good 😊

Great brisket with wonderful bark, but really overpriced
Michael TranSeptember 6, 2015
If you don't like sweet food, there's nothing here for you. :)
David HessJune 27, 2011
Pitchers of Shiner for $20 all the time. Mac&Chez is good, chili mac is better; chili has a nice spice to it.
Kelsey HJuly 20, 2012
The cornbread! It's all of that!

The mac & cheese will change your life.
Robert BoleMay 2, 2011
The pork spare ribs are overspiced (salt dominant), but brisket is pretty good. Thick crust. Yum
CJ DavisNovember 12, 2012
The brisket was scrumptious even after the twenty minute walk back to my apartment. Christly

Sherri was a waitress at the only joint in town / She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around // If this means anything to you, you'll love this place.

The brisket.. .I'm convinced it was blessed by GOD!!!
AnnieMarch 18, 2013
Enjoyed the food. Wasn't too impressed with the wait staff. Weren't very attentive and acted a bit unprofessional. The cooks (who prepare the meat) were personable and friendly, however.
Matt SyskaApril 30, 2016
Best Sausage in town.

We were just asked to leave our table, before we were done, because they have another reservation. Talk about barbe-suckyservice!
