| - A friend and I went here last Saturday night for dinner.
Ok, let's get the bad out of the way: they ran out of food on us. There were no baked beans, no cornbread and no brisket and NO RIBS. I can appreciate only making enough and not wasting but other reviews, at other sites, cite this problem too. This is a restaurant that clearly has not taken the time and energy to figure out some of the basics. Beyond that, I cannot say that customer service was tops here--we were not checked in on by wait staff until the end of the meal and it took forever for our order to be taken. (Based on the table behind us, it is clear that regular customers get better service).
Now for the good: the pulled pork, smoked chicken and meat loaf were all excellent. The coleslaw was some of the best I've had in a long time and I could eat about 100 of those pickles. (The bread and fries were fine, not particularly good or bad). The value was terrific--and you can count on taking some home if you order a platter.
I don't think I would return as there are other BBQ joints in the city, BBQ joints that DO NOT run out of ribs on Saturday night during dinner. But, I would recommend this place, especially if you are nearby. Just get here early if you want to make sure you can get anything on the menu.
