| - We stopped here after visiting Holden Arboretum, and I must say it does look like a hole-in-the-wall place, but don't let appearances fool you! This place was hopping with locals, our waitress was friendly and patient (love the warm welcome, smiles, and attentive service), and the food was pretty dang good!
It is a bit dark inside, and there is nothing fancy about this place, but they have plenty of tv's, free popcorn to much on, and delicious BBQ.
On Sunday's they have 10% off BBQ so I went with the ribs and pulled pork $14.99 and it came with two sides (coleslaw and garlic parm fries) and garlic bread. My date went with the BBQ chicken breasts $9.99 and got regular fries and mac & cheese. They make all of their own sauces and they have a ton of them, but the waitress will let you sample some to help you decide. I went with the sweet & spicy for my ribs, the golden BBQ for my pork, and the spicy ranch (definitely has a kick!) for dipping my fries in. My ribs had a wonderful crispy bark on them, they weren't huge (and watch out for that cartilage), but my mouth really enjoyed eating them. Pulled pork tasted awesome with that golden BBQ sauce (it's a mustard base) and I enjoyed the homemade cream based coleslaw as well (came out in the same 3-4oz containers that the sauce came in so don't expect gluttonous portions). Fries are fresh cut which is always great in my book. I had a bite of the white "gourmet" mac & cheese and it was just okay, but my date enjoyed it. He also liked the tender chicken that he got.
This place is pretty far from where I live, but if in the neighborhood again I would definitely hit it up!
