| - Excellent barbecue and a pretty good value. The ribs were superbly cooked, great flavor. I'd have preferred less of a less sweet sauce, but I'll go back to eat them whenever I'm in town. The sides, typically a minor afterthought in a barbecue place, were a happy surprise. The cheesy succotash was as un-succoatash like as anything I've ever had, with corn, perfectly cooked zucchini, tomatoes and onions in a light cheesy sauce. The apple slaw was a nice diversion from he more typical cole slaw, and the beans were great. Cornbread was very good, but also sweeter than I might have liked. The meat was the highlight though, the best I've ever had in a place that wasn't a shack by the side of the road.
They have a number of interesting beers on draft and our service was great--prompt and friendly. We sat outside and aside from they guys gunning their engines in the parking lot and someone smoking a few tables down (do that allow that in Ohio?) it was lovely. Prices were quite reasonable for the food delivered. As noted by another reviewer, the place does seem to have a bit of an identity crisis between sports bar, dance hall, family restaurant, and foodie paradise, but I'm happy to look past that for the delicious ribs.
