| - Don't waste your time or money here. I had hopes for this place. All were dashed in the first 30 seconds. I was immediately told I couldn't order beef brisket or potato salad, which is what I came for. They were out. Wings, then. Nope. Out of those, too. Fine. A Shrimp Po'Boy. Not happening. Out. Now I'm irritated. If I didn't have a Groupon that expired July 5, I would've left. I wondered why, at dinnertime, the place was empty. All 5 tables available. Hmmmm. Not good.
I orderd a full rack of baby back ribs ($17.95), which came with 2 sides. I got green beans and cornbread. Still had to use the whole $25, so I ordered another cornbread, zucchini, and s'mores. And ginger ale, though I don't drink soda. The other choices were old lemonade or sweet tea (apparently no ice tea).
My phone was near death, so I had to either sit by the door on a bench (waiting area), or at a table 3' from the t.v. I got to see Joe Pesci's and Marisa Tomei's pores up close (My Cousin Vinny was on) while I ate. I must say, Marisa has great pores.
I told the cashier, who was nice, the one cornbread and the s'mores were to go, but she packed everything to go. She said it was easier for her, but for me, not so much. The ribs (in a cardboard box), done with a dry rub, were barely warm, but several people were at the counter, so I decided to just eat. You get a choice of sauce, served on the side. I had 2 sweet, and 2 tangy. I liked the sweet better, as it was more balanced and richer. Everything else was hot, in plastic containers, which started to warp. I took one look at the zucchini, and decided to pass, as it could've passed as baby food, it was so overcooked. The green beans were okay, but would be mush if reheated. The cornbread, which were gummy, cornbread muffins, stuck to the foil. They didn't have much flavor.
The s'mores didn't have graham crackers. They had a brownie-type item, one marshmallow, and chocolate sauce. It was okay, but it wasn't a s'more.
I won't return, and was grateful I only wasted $15, and a frustrating 2 hours. Next time, I'll get TGI Friday's baby back ribs, which were moist, meaty, and fall off the bone tender. For a limited time, their full rack of baby back ribs are only $10!
