| - This is definitely one of those places that you may drive by and never give a second thought. But my mom and i tried this place based on all the good reviews and were pretty shocked. The restaurant is nothing special- dark, a bit older and run down. We had a hard time picking our meal because there were a lot of choices and it all sounded good. We ended up sharing mac and cheese, a Chicago dog, and their gouda and brisket bbq sandwhich. Mac and cheese was so creamy and homey- definitely something you can order as a meal and be smitten. Chicago dog was good but nothing really amazing in my opinion (my mom did rave about it though). But that brisket sandwhich. It puts everything to shame. So simple- white bread, brisket, melted gouda, and bbq sauce. So perfect. Every bite was delicious. Sauce was spot on, gouda not overbearing, and the brisket, tender and flavorful. One of those menu items that everytime you go there, you have to order that (which is a bit tough since so many other things sounded good). I got the beer battered fries to go with the brisket sandwhich and they were out of this world! Hot, crispy, huge, and a decent amount. The waiter was so nice and all the food was hot and fresh. Best part was all of that totaled less than $25. For all the good food we ate, that price was unbeatable. New go-to restaurant in my book!
