I love this place and have been coming here since they opened. It is where hip meets BBQ - cool place where you can enjoy dinner with friends (food is served family style) or watch a game (they have few TVs over bar area). I typically opt for rib tips/brisket/corn bread/pickles and collard greens. Check it out, you will like it!
