Great BBQ, so being from KC we can be snobs about BBQ; however, this place is just like home. Get the brisket, it's amazing. The 1/2 portion was enough, also the pulled pork is amazing. Huge portions! The wings are to die for! Overall great place to eat, right off the main road and I'll be eating here again when I'm back in Cinci!

This place does not deserve a dime from anyone. On two separate occasions, my wife and I have gone to this place hoping to enjoy some BBQ but have never even had a sip of water in the restaurant. Both times, we have been seated at the bar and been completely ignored. I thought the first time was a fluke, so we made the mistake of giving them a second chance. We spent 17 minutes sitting and staring at the three people working the bar (after having waited for over an hour to be seated) and not one of them even made eye contact... read more
