This was kind of a bummer visit from start to finish. While nothing was overtly bad, there were enough not good moments to be pretty disappointing.
From a service standpoint, there is nothing more bothersome to me than arriving at a restaurant, standing at the "please wait to be seated sign" for five minutes while you make eye contact with multiple employees from across the room, and still don't get acknowledged. Luckily, a member of my party had already arrived and texted directions to the table. Our server was friendly, but very busy and service was slow in general. One of our party's orders was completely forgotten and the person that delivered our food employed a strategy of asking if we needed anything as his back was half turned and he was walking away from the table.
I ordered the sampler platter to try the barbecue, and was happy with the sausage though frankly that was something I could have purchased and made myself. The brisket was dry, somewhat difficult to cut into manageable pieces and had a very heavy smoke flavor that felt manufactured or really, really heavy. I ordered coleslaw as a side which was pretty bland, and kettle chips which were actually my second favorite part of the meal. Good beer list - easy to find something no matter your preference. There are much better barbecue places around, though, and from a service standpoint I'd like to see this place work on their teamwork a bit more.
