| - Came here with a friend on a Wednesday evening. As we were first-timers here, we had loads of questions, especially on what to order if we wanted to try a bit of everything. The girl behind the counter was very willing to answer all our questions with big smiles. The service she provided us with later on also made our experience delightful.
Prior to visiting, I had decided I would come here to try all of: beef brisket, ribs, mac and cheese, beans, and poutine. After looking over the menu, I decided that I'd go for the half rack dinner (comes with six bones, fries, and a small side) with upgraded poutine ($2 extra), a pound of the beef brisket, and an extra medium side.
The food itself is pretty average.
Nothing about the meats particularly screamed unique to the joint but was definitely flavourful, tender, and juicy.
The poutine had a dark, rich, thick gravy that complimented the crispy fries and cheese curds. Quite a generous portion was packed into a box beside my ribs.
The ribs were tender, fall off the bone with a delicious rib sauce.
The beef brisket was a little disappointing but that's only because I came in with expectations after seeing a picture of freshly sliced brisket with a beautiful red smoke ring around the edge. The brisket my friend and I were served did not look as such; just the average brisket.
The medium mac and cheese side was super creamy! Taste is also average.
The small side of baked beans I got with my half rack dinner was one of the favourites that night. A certain spice in the beans made it stand out from other baked beans I've tried from other BBQ joints.
Overall, a great experience because of the exceptional service provided by the girl behind the counter. I'd certainly come back again to try their other offerings like their fried chicken and "sammiches."
