This location is in a strip mall right on Main Street and should not be judged from the outside. They did a really nice job turning this into a sit-down restaurant. We were greeted quickly by an employee and the awesome smell of BBQ. There was only one other table when we arrived at 11:30a on a Saturday. Our waitress took our drink orders and returned quickly with all of them. We ordered armadillo eggs (their take on jalapeno poppers) at the same time as our entrees, informing her that we'd like them out early. She said she'd return with them shortly but it still took about 15 minutes. The presentation wasn't that great - there were 5 of them on a large plate which made them look skimpy for the $8.50. Our main entrees came out about 5 minutes after the appetizer, too soon.
Two of us had the firecracker shrimp tacos, a smokehouse sandwich and the brisket grilled cheese. The tacos were filled full of shrimp and other fresh ingredients but the chips that were served alongside were literally dripping in grease and neither one of my companions ate many of them. My brisket grilled cheese was delicious! It was pretty rich, almost seemed like a queso sauce instead of melted cheese. I opted for the sweet potato fries for the extra $1 but can't say they were worth it. Again, the presentation could've been a little better. The small amount of fries that came on the side were spread out over the large plate which again, made it looks skimpy.
The lunch rush didn't seem as busy as I had expected based on reviews and the loud country music that had been playing when we first got there was on an extended break. The music started back up again, only to be shut off abruptly. Service was pretty decent and the restaurant itself was very clean. The fireplace is a nice touch too. The bathrooms were clean but there was only one stall in the women's room. I believe this was a Pizza Pit prior to being converted so maybe the bathrooms were just leftover. I would give this place another chance, or try their west side location.
