We visited on Father's Day, so we expected a crowd, and this place definitely delivered one!…read moreParking was probably the biggest challenge of the day. The lot was full, and the line stretched past the front patio and onto the sidewalk. We ended up parking a couple of blocks away and walking over. Despite the long line, it moved at a reasonable pace. One thing that helped was being able to grab drinks from the bar while we waited. They have a great selection of beers and seltzers, and it looked like a lot of people were picking up to-go orders as well. For our meal, we ordered the 4-6 person platter, which included beef cheek, tri-tip, ribs, sausage, chicken, pulled pork, six sides, cornbread, rolls, and pickles. We also added the 5-cheese mac and cheese. Everything was flavorful and there was more than enough food for our group. The sides were excellent. We tried the pit beans, pee wee potato salad, carne con chile, farro salad, and wild rice salad. My favorite was the warm potato salad with mustard, brown butter, capers, and dill...it was unique and absolutely delicious. The restaurant offers lots of seating with outdoor dining areas both in the front and back. They also have a private room with windows overlooking the main dining room. During our visit, it was hosting a private party of about 20 people. The kids loved their root beer floats, and by the end of the meal we were way too full to even consider dessert. That's definitely something we'll have to come back and try next time. Overall, the food was worth the wait, the atmosphere was lively, the world cup was playing on the tvs and even on one of the busiest days of the year the staff kept things moving smoothly. We'll definitely be back.

This place is like a hidden gem. Parking is available on the street or in a small lot. Plenty of…read moreseating both in and outdoors when I arrived on a weekday.

Last summer, we ate at the famous Franklin BBQ in Austin, TX. This was comparable. We ordered the Beef Brisket, Pork Spare Ribs, and Pork Butt-Pulled Pork. We added a side of Smoked Sweet Corn and Smoked Mac & Cheese. Our order included a mini side of Slaw, Rolls, Pickles, and BBQ Sauce. The meat was very delicious and tender, and fell off the bone. The sides were also so very good!! They have a great set up: deli counter at the back of the Minute King Market & Deli. Staff is super nice and helpful. They open only on Saturdays from 10:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. Staff said a lot of the sides and specials are likely to sell out by noon or 1 p.m. but it just depends on the turn out. There was no one waiting when we arrived around 11 a.m. We also grabbed a couple of Angry Orchard hard ciders to pair with our barbecue. Next time, I'll try the poultry (turkey and chicken). Highly recommend!

Out of all them... the sausage was hands down the best item. Brisket was blah, ribs so so. Chicken decent. But the sausage stole the flavor pallet.

We ordered the trio appetizer for starters and both got Modela Negra beers since it was happy hour. The appetizer was fantastic. Loved the deep fried pickles and the burnt ends. The guacamole for the chips was great. This is a large appetizer so plan accordingly. For our main course my wife ordered the pulled pork sandwich with a side of bacon Brussel sprouts. She really enjoyed this. I ordered the 3 meat combo with pulled pork, ribs and brisket with two sides. Mac & cheese and bacon Brussel sprouts. It was delicious. I couldn't finish my meal because of the large appetizer we got. The service was quick and friendly and the restaurant was very clean. I would recommend this for anyone looking for good BBQ and beer.

Haven't been here in a while and it still hits…read more I got here late (7pm they close 8pm) and they were sold out of most things but I got brisket and short rib with that colossal bone. After trying the neighboring new bbq spot I won't name.. this places brisket is so much better. I love it here, juicy and great flavor. Some fatty bits but that's where the flavor comes from. and this short rib was bomb! The edges were a bit dry but I'm coming at closing time so I get it. FYI short rib is by weight $40/lb so it was about $50 for it. The sides I got were their macaroni and cheese 10/10 tastes home made! Onion rings were ok. Coleslaw is alright. Good for fiber! lol. I do like their beans and the blueberry bread. I love their nachos but they ran out of nacho cheese. Sad! I gota come back!

I grew up in Santa Maria, so I'm always a little skeptical when I see places in Orange County or LA claiming to serve Santa Maria-style BBQ. But this place definitely delivered. We ordered the brisket, tri-tip, ribs, mac & cheese, and cornbread. Every meat was incredibly tender, and everything we tried was delicious. We'll definitely be adding this to our list of regular family dinner spots. Highly recommend checking it out if you're craving some great BBQ!

However, the corn bread was as a 5 out of 10 at best. It was a large piece, but it was very doughy tasting as if it hadn't been fully baked. My beer was served cool but not cold as a good beer should be.
