Came here for my bday on a Saturday at 5:30pm and booked a reservation a week in advance. I had a large group of 15. I really liked that they didn't require us to do a set menu or even charged us the general 18-20% gratuity usually for large groups. That was nice and unexpected. Due note: they don't take reservations from 6-9pm.
So I was looking over the menu and by 6pm, I was hangry and ready to order. A few of my party were running late but bday girl waits for no one, so off our orders went! Lol. A lot of my friends had the pulled pork and brisket burgers. A few had ribs and tacos too. I didn't get a chance to nibble on anyone else's dish so can't tell you the taste myself but I asked around and I believe they all liked it. General consensus was food is good and yummy. For myself, I had the brisket dinner w/ fries and beans ($18) and it was filling. Brisket was tender and tasty. Thumbs up!
In was in the midst of my nomming, my late friends arrived (grrr) but they surprised me with a bouquet of flowers and a bday cake. So clearly - aww, all is forgiven. Lol. It was kinda funny cause I was very busy and apparently oblivious during dinner. My friend pulled a little ninja move before they came in to the restaurant and likely gave the staff my cake at the door. It was after the dinner finished that our server Andrew came out with the fried doughnuts and my cake with a sparkler. He jokingly said it won't stop for a while so my friends might have to sing Happy Birthday at least 2-3 times. They embarrassingly obliged. Haha.
Overall, the restaurant is pretty busy but I didn't feel rushed at all and our server was very nice and friendly. I had a nice time and would recommend this place.
