| - If you are opening a BBQ restaurant, calling it "modern", and charging a premium then you had better deliver on at least two of the following: quality, uniqueness, or portion size. Unfortunately, it failed on all three. While smoke looks modern the food was mediocre, service was "meh", and portions were very..eh "modern".
I ordered the 2 meat combo ($18) with the Jalapeno Sausage and the Brisket. The sausage was actually pretty good and would potentially order again. However, the brisket was really dry and had minimal flavor. If done properly you shouldn't need BBQ sauce, but perhaps that's why they serve like 5 types on the table. Portion size was also sort of a joke, with just three thinly sliced pieces, all dry and lame there on this giant plate. I've gotten more meat on a subway sandwich.
Bottom line, you can't serve the same run-of-the-mill BBQ and sides you can get anywhere, with nothing unique or different about it, then call it modern and charge a premium. I felt ripped off to be honest, hence the 2 rating, so will most likely not be going back.
