This business has been though a couple of owners and names. The current situation is much better than under previous owners.
Three of us ate there on a Sat night (2nd time for 2 of us) and the food was well-prepared, fresh, and tasty. I highly recommend the brisket. My companions had chicken and pulled pork that they liked very much. Our side dishes--mac & cheese and caesar salad--were generously sized and very good. The baked beans needed a bit more baking. The large cookie desert (formerly the pizza cookie) was fresh out of the oven and topped with 3 scoops of ice cream.
The interior has been completely redone and much is cleaner and pleasant than in previous incarnations. The service was friendly, and they switched on the unfortunate ASU-Stanford game for us.We had soft drinks but they do serve beer & wine.
I'd say give the new place a try!
