Rib tips and sweet potatoe fries
Nick NgSeptember 9, 2012
Get the sweet potato fries instead of regular fries. The latter tastes so bland.

great live bands, great beer selection, great sweet potato fries!
Alex PyatetskyJuly 9, 2018
Very sauce dependent BBQ and sauces are all v sweet. Wings and ribs were surprisingly better than brisket and burnt ends (skip those). Not a bad place, but when Smoque and Green St exist, why?

Good brisket
Amish ShahJanuary 12, 2010
Yes they are known for the BBQ sauce but the smokey ranch is to die for. Get it with wings.

If they seat you early make sure someone gets assigned to your table. We left after 15 minutes of being ignored as everyone around us ordered.
