This restaurant does not look like much from the outside, which is one of the main reasons we have never stopped. But my husband and I rely on Yelp to help us find new places, and we are happy we tried Allison's. I'd much rather spend my money at a family business than a chain like Rudy's. I ordered the chopped brisket sandwich and beans and enjoyed them a lot. The brisket was moist and flavorful with a nice smoky finish to it. I liked that they gave you three choices of BBQ sauce, so you could find the one that suits you best. Despite how run-down the strip mall is, I thought the restaurant was cute inside, and had perfectly nice ambience. We will definitely go back and try some of the other meats.
