Their shrimp basket is incredible. I have had everything on their menu and all their specials. They are all 10 out of 10. The server Stephanie is amazing and Keith the owner, is awesome , he always interacts with the customers to make sure they are having the best experience possible. Tyler who is behind the counter is awesome, he always greets everyone with a smile and offers to let you try items that are new. If you have not tried black powder, do yourself a favor and go check it out. I will warn you, I find myself going there three days a week sometimes. Keith C.

The service was great with everyone there being super helpful and sweet to us first-timers. We ordered 1/4lb beef brisket (only my brother had that and really loved it!), sauced chicken wings, turkey sandwich with potato salad as a side, pulled pork sandwich with fries, and Smoked Gouda Mac&Cheese. Everything was delicious, especially the fries, turkey sandwich, Mac&Cheese, and the wings!! The place has a very warm atmosphere and we saw a lot of families enjoying their meals. Overall a great stop for anyone wanting to try Barbecue in the Triad area.

My dining companion tried the combination chopped and coarse chopped pork BBQ while I just had chopped BBQ. My serving of chopped 'Q was moist, flavorful and had just the right amount of smokiness. The coarsely chopped BBQ was also very good but not quite as moist. The red BBQ slaw was very good and not spicy. We each received a serving of just-out-of-the-fryer hush puppies. I thought they were very tasty and had a perfect amount of onion. The fries were served hot, but were just typical frozen potatoes, so I probably skip them next time. Pro tip: try just a drop of the house sauce before slathering it all over your meal. It's a bit spicy so make sure it works well for your palette. We split an order of cherry cobbler for dessert and received a very large serving big enough for at least 3 people. It was warm, good, and not super sweet. Our server was friendly and efficient in this unassuming, quintessential NC BBQ restaurant. We both enjoyed our meal and will return.

Great service really makes a difference, and he made us feel so welcome. For food, I had the ribs, shrimp, and chicken, and my husband had the artichoke dip and chicken tenders. Everything was really good, and we genuinely enjoyed our experience. Between the food, the music, and the service, we'd definitely come back!

The around the world plate ($35) isn't bad, ribs are a hit and miss. Some pieces have been charred to death and really dry. Other pieces are succulent and juicy. You get a good amount of fish, but the later you go, you start tasting the oil getting old. The wings are good. Simple topped with old bay. Crinkle cut fries are, well, just that. The pork chop was the shoe stopper. Look at that damn piece! (Sorry my inner monologue escaped). Juicy and lots of flavor. The steak they gave, was great. Who doesn't love a grilled steak!
