We stopped by for lunch on Sunday afternoon. We were seated right away and the service was great. We ordered the Korean BBQ smoked wings. They are both smoked and fried and drenched in the sauce. The wings were big and flavorful. I ordered the 2 meats brisket and pulled pork. The server asked if I wanted the brisket fatty, in the middle , or lean. I ordered it in the middle. The brisket was tough to eat, fatty, and greasy. The pulled pork was chunky and flavorless. There is a full condiment selection of sauces and ketchup available to flavor as you wish. My wife ordered the chicken, and chicken, and waffles. The sweet potato waffles with fruit compote and syrup was a hit. It came with a huge portion of chicken wings and fried chicken. The Cuban sandwich was filled with chunky pulled pork that made it hard to eat at times. The server did comp the two meat meal stating that she could see I had not eaten it. Great service, great atmosphere, mixed reviews on the food today.

On a "not so busy, at all" Wednesday evening, our Combo Dinner Platters (brisket,chicken & ribs) were lukewarm at best & the "jalapeno smoke bombs" appetizers seemed crunchy (the jalapenos, not the bacon) & under-cooked. Baked beans were good, mac & cheese was meh. The ribs were delicious, if not overly hot. The service was less than stellar, given the amount of guests & they decided to seat a family with 2 kids, about 3-5yrs each, directly behind us in the booths when there were plenty of other seats that the kids would not have been so...distracting!

I was excited about trying this place based on pictures, menu & reviews, but it fell short after 2 separate visits. The smoked wings were tasty & falling off the bone. The bbq hot sauce was HOT! and made the wings perfect. Jalapeño smoke bombs were drenched in sweet bbq sauce and full of cream cheese laying on wilted greens but had a small thin piece of bacon holding them together. The brisket was tender but lacking flavor. The dry rub on the ribs could have used more flavor and when I tried pulling them apart, they were a little on the tough side. The loaded mashed potatoes were COLD but had good flavor and the mac n cheese was nothing special. There were lots of beers on draft, the food came out quick and service was friendly. The bbq hot sauce was just what i was looking for in a spicy bbq sauce and was glad they sold it to the public. Its sold by the pint and 1/2 pint but i expected it in a jar or a bottle. It was brought out in Tupperware and i wasn't going to be able to travel with that.
