| - We were expecting a restaurant and found a tiny strip-mall take-out joint with a few two-person tables and one table for four. The place has a sports theme (go Hamilton Huskies!) and one large TV. You order at the counter from a menu posted on the wall, pay at the counter, and receive your food at your table.
We had a LivingSocial deal and spent our $20 on two medium sodas, two pulled pork sandwiches (one side included - we had fries), and one small dish of vanilla ice cream scooped from a large tub. The three young people behind the counter were so nice and friendly, very welcoming, and made sure we knew about the specials before ordering. We were served our meal withing five minutes of ordering. There was one other family in the restaurant when we arrived (no orders ahead of us) and several came in behind us. It seemed fairly busy for early on a Saturday night.
Our pulled pork sandwiches and fries came in a basket with a square of corn bread. Everything tasted pretty good. The fries were the kind that are coated a bit, almost like a jo-jo, and had just a hint of heat (I don't like heat, and I wolfed down those fries, they were great!). The fries were fresh and hot, temperature-wise, crisp on the outside and tender and fluffy inside.
The pulled pork was served on a large shiny bun, which should have been toasted to keep the bottom half from getting soggy with the meat's moisture. Not a big deal, but would have been nice. We were surprised to find "veggies" in the pulled pork, and the server explained that it was their "signature cole slaw." I didn't really care for the crunch of pieces of cabbage and carrot in my pulled pork, but the taste was good. The temperature of the large portion of pulled pork on the bun could have been hotter; it was lukewarm in the middle. The BBQ sauce, served in large squeeze bottles, has a bit of zing to it.
The corn bread was excellent, although the jalapenos in it were pretty hot. I managed to eat around them and enjoy the bread anyway. It's served with real California butter.
Beverages are self-serve and reasonably priced. Our "medium" styrofoam cups cost $1.29 and were the size that used to be large at many places.
While this won't become of our favorite hangouts, we were pleased with what we had and would recommend it for a quick, casual meal. I do think it was a bit overpriced.
