  • When we picked up two full racks of ribs during the taste of Danforth we were blown away with the perfectly grilled yummy bbq flavour. Some weeks later we returned absolutely salivating over the fond memories. Our sophomore visit was a huge let down though. Mainly due to the hurried and poor service. We ordered two full racks both "wet" and a few sides. The two racks were distinctly different. One dry, the other wet. Our waitress told us that we were wrong and both were indeed wet. They weren't. We backed down and choked them back in disbelief. Good. Not great. A month or so later we thought we would give them another chance. This time same server, even worse service. We sat at the bar. For about 15 minutes watching the bartender serve many other patrons - some who came after we were seated - never even looking at us. We finally flagged her and asked if we could get served. Her response? "Yup. Sure hon. I'm a bit busy here". "Thanks but no thanks" we said getting up to go "we'll find a spot that wants our business". Brutal service. Adequate food. Too many other spots to try, so definitely not worth another go. ------------ Well kudos to Warren, the owner, for reaching out and trying to make things right by offering us a credit towards another shot at this spot. He started off by telling me that the server from hell had been let go. We walked in only to be greeted by said satanic server. Not a great start. Ok. We pushed through. It WAS better than the previous two visits. And the menu had just changed. So we tried some of the new items. Decent. Not off the hook. But decent. We tried a new Sammy- the decker. It was good. Would make for a great lunch. And I liked the hush puppies but they need a light dip to make them work....a dill or a lemon aioli. And I have to agree with some of the other posters here....the smoked foods have this weird kerosene like flavour going on. Maybe it's normal...but it's just unsettling enough that it needs to be explained to patrons. Overall I can live with the flavours. My wife cannot. So for us, it's a miss. Service was better. But not good. She lacked some of the basic skills - the table next to us was seated after us but served before us. Warm water served in old bourbon bottles was more gross than charming. Overall Kinda clueless across the board. Great effort on the part of the owner, just still not quite there for us. It really pains me to even write this review....he really tried hard to woo us back...he even introduced me to a delicious bourbon on the house - American Honey - but I decided that I had to be honest in this update. It's a pass for us.
