I ate here twice on a recent trip (once for dinner and once for lunch). Both times were on the early side, and the place can get busy. I had the turkey and sausage combo plate, which was great, and reasonably priced. The servers were very attentative, and my sweet tea never ran low. I'd highly recommend the place to... More

My husband and I ate here in mid-April, 2013, and found the barbeque and the sides to be outstanding. We had the wet ribs and we both thought that the barbeque sauce was the best we have ever tasted and we have eaten a lot of BBQ. The ribs themselves were wonderful, too. The service was friendly and efficient. We'd... More

We had a good time here. The ribs are marvelous, the service is fast and friendly, the environment is fun. You're gonna want to take some of that bbq sauce home with ya.

Went there about a year ago and the food was awesome, but didnt review. Went there yesterday and the food was not what I remembered it being. The chicken and brisket was still top notch, but the ribs took a nose-dive and were dried out and chewy, not moist and tender. I guess I tend to judge my BBQ by... More

Hubby and I love this restaurant. We try to go every other week or so, about a 45 minute drive away from our house but worth the time and effort. From the bbq loaded potato to the pulled pork and ribs, the food is some of best around town. If it's as crowded as it normally is, sit at the... More

Not sure what all the hype is about this place but I found it to be slightly below average. I am confident that the BBQ I was served is not what won all the trophies that are on display. We were visiting the Memphis area for the weekend and had read all the positive reviews about this place. I had... More

We went here because of trip adviser review, but probably won' t be back. Now, I must say the server was great- friendly, attentive, high energy and full of smiles. She was quick to bring us the complementary pork rinds, which my husband, conniseur of pork rinds says were some of the best/ freshest he has ever had, dusted with... More

Dropped by for lunch with my wife. I had dry ribs and they were fantastic. My wife had pulled pork which was good as well. It was a busy lunch hour, so service was a little slow, but the food made up for it. I think I've found my go-to spot for a rib fix.

You will not walk away hungry from this place. I found our waitress was very attentive and the food was awesome. My 15 yo daughter was with me and she savored every bite. Oddly enough I found the surface of the floors to be very slick so watch your step.
