The owner is the nicest lady ever. She always takes care of me and my friends when we need a warm meal after school. 11/10 recommend!

Excellent BBQ ribs and brisket with bark. Sides ok but better than expected with home-made touches. Very fast take out. Out of pulled pork. BBQ sauce excellent vinegar based with low sugar content relatively speaking. Prices high but expected with current cost of meat. Vegetarian options: None other than sides. Parking: Parking designed for quick in and out service. Otherwise one must look for limited off-Duke St parking nearby.

My family and I decided we wanted BBQ and found this restaurant. What a great choice. The brisket and smoked turkey were full of flavor. We order the feast for four. The three sides were potato salad, Mac and cheese, and cornbread. You need to get to this restaurant.

Small place, not much seating other than 4 picnic tables but definitely worth it for the food. We had pulled pork and turkey with a bunch of different sides. It was delicious. We didn't get to try the brisket because they ran out. Price was reasonable for the family.

100/10 experience. Was given a free cornbread for being the first customer of the day. That was already exciting but THE FOOD ITSELF WAS AMAZINGGGGGGGG. They had a bbq show on TV with amazing chefs which is excellent marketing because it shows the CONFIDENCE in the food. Staff at 11a said they had been there since 2a because they smoke the meats overnight. I’m flabbergasted at the entire experience. Will be back as often as I can. Love you guys!! Thanks for being here.

We stopped by for take out on the way home. The owner and staff were all so friendly, asking if we’d been here before and talking about the different meats, sides, rubs, smoking techniques, etc. while we waited for our food. We were astounded by the amazing customer service and no doubt would have dined in for the great atmosphere if we weren’t on the way home already. The food itself is worth the five stars alone though. All the meat was tender, the sauces were amazing, and each of the sides was better than the last. I’ve never been a big fan of barbecue, but apparently it’s because I’ve never had barbecue like this before.
