I would recommend this place for 2 to 4 people and would suggest making a reservation (which can be done on their website). Two of us made a reservation to go for dinner on a Thursday night.
Food: 4/5
-Shared the sampler for 2 which comes with 3 meats and 3 sides:
Meat:
1) brisket - a few pieces of brisket were a bit dry but most were tender
2) chicken thighs - tender and tasty but we found the skin was a little tough
3) back ribs (sweet heat) - the meat didn't fall off the bone but it was still very tasty and juicy
Sides:
1) brussel spouts - I thought this was going to be a healthier side but it was surprisingly heavy with the sauce that seemed cheesier as opposed to being tahini (it was still delicious)
2) herbed smashed potatoes - were a little salty but for the most part were creamy and yummy
3) baby kale salad - was a small fresh side in contrast with the heavier sides
Dessert:
- We shared the Apple Crumble Pie for Two which had 2 scoops of coffee ice cream on top. This was so delicious but so much bigger than we expected. You have to order this when you order your main meal. If you're a dessert person like me and need to try this, I would suggest having a lighter meal or lighter sides if you're going to share amongst 2 people. I think it could be shared between 4 people.
Drinks: I had the Bourbon smoked sour which wasn't great but wasn't bad.
Service: 5/5
-attentive, friendly
-our meal and dessert were served really quickly after we ordered. Although we didn't feel rushed, we didn't feel that it was a place we could linger and have a conversation.
Ambiance: 4/5
-casual, cozy
-every table was full but it wasn't too busy
The sampler for 2 was the right amount of food. We probably could have done without the apple crumble but I couldn't resist and would go back to share it with a few more people. I would recommend this place if you are looking for bbq and comfort food.
