| - This place is a treasure. The food was to die for! I could not recommend this cute little BBQ spot enough.
I came with a group of four, so we split a couple of apps between us. We enjoyed the collard green dip and the jalapeño poppers. Both were really good. The collard green dip was a touch salty, and the jalapeño poppers could have had more jalapeño, but despite this, it was good enough that we ate every last bit and enjoyed it wholeheartedly!
The mains were definitely the standout items. Each main comes with a side, which is great because their sides all sound delicious. I opted for the short rib sandwich with slaw, and smashed potatoes. My partner got the fried turkey with smashed potatoes. Both were awesome, and I actually couldn't believe how good it all tasted. It was one of those meals where you just stop and have to take a moment to really appreciate what you're eating. My partner got cornbread for free as well - not going to lie, it wasn't the best cornbread I've had, and I think it should be served warm. But it was an appreciated little extra, as were the pickles.
For dessert - not pictured - I got the peach crisp. It tasted like warm, comforting oatmeal! It wasn't overly sweet, but it was really nice and it gave me some major Autumn breakfast feels.
The service was average, not much to comment on.
I'd give this new spot a 4/5. There is room for improvement here and there, but overall, I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and I think it's on its way to becoming a neighbourhood staple.
