I am really not sure how to rate this one. I will round up to four because I like the people working there.
Service 5/5. You can see they care a lot about their customers, checking in to see if you are enjoying your meal, even though the atmosphere is between a casual restaurant and fast food. Parking is plentiful.
Meats 4/5. The meats were good quality as you would expect. I really enjoyed the pulled pork sandwich and the sausage and brisket were enjoyed too. The servings are commensurate with the price.
Sides 2.5/5 the sides were really hit or miss. The fries are chunky and warm, not too crispy but I enjoyed some. Coleslaw was vinegar kind and was okay. Beans were canned and okay. Mashed potatoes would have appealed to some, but we did not find them appealing. Free pickles were crisp, dill and yummy.
If you want more food with better ambience, double the price and then some and go to Carbon Bar. If you want a casual, homey neighbourhood joint, then this fits the bill.
