"0"^^ . "0"^^ . "Came here on a Friday afternoon and the place was empty except for another table of guys. This of course allowed more time/attention from the manager(owner?); I've got to say, I don't know what previous reviewers were talking about-- the guy we met was awesome! He was very friendly, not small talk friendly but ACTUAL conversations friendly.\n\nI ordered the half rack of baby back ribs with fries and cornbread. My friend got the same except with coleslaw instead of the fries. \n\nRibs: okay, I don't know if I just hadn't had ribs in a long time and I was just really homesick and craving... OR THOSE RIBS WERE THE BOMB! They were slathered with just the right amount of BBQ sauce (you can never have too much when it comes to ribs though) and the meat was that perfect consistently where it could fall of the bone without much effort but it hasn't. AGHHH so good! I must return!\n\nFries: not going to lie, the ribs were so good that I don't remember if I liked the fries. But honestly speaking, fries are my favourite thing in the world and so if I don't remember these then they were probably between mediocre and alright.\n\nCornbread: Damn. Who'd have thought you'd find good cornbread in Montreal? It was delicious! I could taste the buttery goodness in it but it wasn't at all greasy/oily. Couldn't get enough of it.\n\nColeslaw: I'm not a coleslaw person but my friend said that it was good. It was purple though-- not sure if that's a Montreal thing?\n\nOverall: I didn't get anything to drink, just water. So all together, including tip, I paid about $30. This is normally the price range I would pay (on the higher end though) at the smokehouses back home so normally this would be okay. BUT the portions were small. Usually when I go out for ribs (or something to that variety), I'm overwhelmed by the amount of food that's put in front of me. I wasn't really wow-ed though. \nAnd I finished it. Easily. Never have I ever finished a whole meal at a smokehouse-- I usually end up having to take home a little container of leftovers.\n\nYeah so absolutely delicious but WAY overpriced for the portions."^^ . . . .
