I ate 1 round then ordered another. It was that good.

I had the two for two.... the ribs were awesome. The fries were cold and that Texas toast thing... cold and stale. Weak on the visits,by our waitress. Never asked if we needed drinks refilled. Beer was cold, that was good. I imagine the place will rock when everyone gets better at what they do or get weeded out. I'm going back for the ribs and know to make sure about everything else before hand. Thanks! 

Business response:

Thanks for coming by, Kenneth! We're so glad you loved the ribs, though it's too bad the fries and Texas toast weren't as good. Please ask for me or the manager on duty the next time your service or anything with your meal is sub par. We look forward to making your next visit even better! Best, Chad, General Manager

The service was slow and the place wasn't very busy. I had ordered the sirloin steak medium rare and when I got it it was well done. Because I didn't want to wait on another (my 2 yr old was getting cranky) I ate it anyway and it was bland. My boyfriend chose the pick three and not only was the rib portion small for what was advertised in the combo section but it was also all bland. As this is our first time in Tennessee we wanted some good BBQ and everyone recommend this place however.... There is MUCH better BBQ back home ... read more

Business response:

I am sorry to hear this, Shawna! We are definitely known for our BBQ, and we'd like to think we're keeping the Tennessee BBQ tradition alive. I am so sorry about the steak, and to know you were not able to ask for another one done right because of time. I hope someday we'll get to welcome you back for the BBQ experience we're known for. Best, Chad, General Manager

Great food and service, reasonable prices. Tender moist flavorful ribs that are not burned on the ends. Green beans are canned but cooked tender and seasoned well. Baked beans are sweet and made from scratch. Sweet creamy coleslaw. Be sure to eat the bread. It's garlic toast and delicious. 

Business response:

Thanks, Marlane! So glad you loved everything from the ribs to the Texas toast. Hope to welcome you back for more soon. Best, Chad, General Manager
