    This is the best bbq I've had in a while. Who barbeques oxtail?! I had bbq oxtail, pork ribs, macaroni & cheese, collard greens and yams. Outstanding. Everything. The meat is tender and was sliding right off the bone. Also, the service was great, too. The owner and guys serving were kind to us, talking to us like we're neighbors. They chased us down after we left and gave my friend and I complimentary banana pudding. This is my staple bbq place. Follow them on Instagram to see where they are stationed for the day. I can't wait to have this again!

    Food tent outside of Ale Works, the food smelled good so we decided to give it a try. The food was good, seasoned well BUT immediately after about 1hr or so we were sick to our stomach's. Going from both ends; don't recommend at all.

    Sunday dinner.

    I discovered Bootsy during the pandemic and I've been a fan since. His salmon, brisket and mac are my favorites but everything on the menu is top tier! His energy and passion for the community make supporting him an easy decision. I've sent so many friends and clients his way. Go get Hit with the Smoke!!!

    Healthy portions yummy

    This is the best bbq I've had in a long time; very healthy portions. The smoked salmon is seasoned to perfection; it's my favorite. All the sides are fresh prepared just right and really good. The bbq is tender and smoked just right. The customer service is A1 and the owner is a stand up gentleman. Great vibes all the way around

    Salmon, Brisket, Greens, and Sticky Substance IPA.

    Picked up some Bootsys at LA Ale Works today and it was Got the Salmon, Brisket, and Greens. Salmon was amazing. Brisket was amazing. Greens were amazing. Highly recommended. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu!

    Brisket, Mac & cheese and baked beans L

    If you're looking for good BBQ, this is a spot worth checking out. Not only is the food good, but the service was great. Everyone was friendly and efficient. I just picked up my food to go, but the vibe inside is cool. It's a cute casual place where you can dine in or take it to go. All in all, it's a vibe! The shining stars were the brisket and the Mac & Cheese

    Salmon, sweet potatoes, and greens

Let me say that me and my family are very picky about our barbecue, this one hit all the marks. We all got the same thing chopped beef, but each of us got different sauces. We got mild which was nice and tangy we got mixed which was the mild and spicy together which had a nice spicy sweet heat and the spicy which had a very strong kick, so if you don't like spice stay away from that one. It was served on a nice large bun and had enough meat to fill us up. We got the baked beans and mac and cheese for the sides. The baked beans were good standard, don't know if they were canned or not, but good. The mac and cheese was very tasty, not plain, I've seen people complain about the size but you can always upgrade to a bigger size for $2. The gentleman at the counter was friendly enough and Kenny himself was there And he was friendly and helpful as well. To end the meal we got a banana pudding which was good, but we make our own at home and that one's hard to top. All in all it was an excellent meal and we would come back to try other stuff. They do have tables to eat at which are outdoors, as well as an accessible table for those who may need it. Keep up the great work Kenny!

Like many restaurants, they have had their ups and downs, but they are hanging on. We have bought the Family Special which is no longer a Sunday option, but on other days. For just under $50, we had a whole Baked Chicken, 3 sides and corn muffins. The Chicken is always well seasoned and cooked well. Our favorite sides are the Collard Greens, Yams and Black Eyed Peas. We had some friends and family over, so we purchased 2 Family Specials and some extra Corn Muffins. That was plenty for 7 adults and 2 children with a little leftovers. Although, we have had some negative experiences here previously, we still dine there by take-out mostly. The owner does listen to and reads reviews. That doesn't happen every.

Came here on a Friday for dinner around 6:15pm and were seated inside at a table right away. Service was quick, efficient, and friendly. The ambiance was nice, as well. That said, the food did not really live up to the hype. Particularly, the fried chicken was very dry. The baked chicken was quite a bit better, but the cornbread muffins were probably my favorite food item. If in the area, I'd still say this spot is worth checking out if you're curious. Just don't come in with super high expectations. Maybe we caught them on an off night.
