| - I've been here in a group and just in a date and every time we come, it's great.
Cocktails are a bit pricey compared to the other bars/restaurants on 17th. I get the lemonade and it's $12. But coming during their happy hour which I think is 4--6 for whiskey is such a great deal.
The five of us usually get 1/2 pound of brisket, chicken wings (salt and pepper are awesome.) Mac and cheese, smokestack corn, and the broccoli salad to share. It's definitely more than enough food for the five of us.
We've also gotten to try a newer menu item the "hot mess" which doesn't have a description on the menu so you have to ask. It's a sweet potato with brisket, sour cream, cheese and (I think) green onion. ITS AMAZING. If you are even thinking of trying it, DO IT.
Coming during their late night happy hour (after 10) is awesome, although you gamble with seating/meats being available. If you can, half price meats with a purchase of a drink (doesn't need to be alcoholic) is great.
The only real negative is that they don't actually have a hostess stand, and sometimes she's doing something else so you end up standing in the doorway, a bit unsure if you need to seat yourself or if there's a waitlist. That can be a bit confusing when it's busy. Sometimes service can be a bit slow but it honestly doesn't put any damper on the overall experience.
One of our favorite places to go to when people visit!
