I love bbq, and this place hit all the right buttons. We ordered the combo plate which included brisket, ribs and sausage. Everything was so good. As soon as we got there we were seated and the waitress was quick to get our drink order and our food came out quickly. The food was absolutely delicious. Our food came with sweet potato fries and Mac-n-cheese. We will definitely be coming back to this place. - Andres Ayala
