It was a to go order so I had to call back up there and was instructed to bring it back and they would remake it. When I did return it and they remade it I feel like it was still a little to no meat on the bone and very small.

From the outside, the restaurant looks run down but I was optimistic because most local food restaurants look like such. The outside was to be expected. We got a regular pork salad and pork nachos to go. This was all okay BBQ. I was a little disappointed because this restaurant was ranked on places to go on Yelp. The salad was store bought shredded iceberg lettuce, over pulled pork, shredded cheddar cheese and canned relish. There was nothing special. The pork was okay and the BBQ sweet sauce was probably the best thing about the meal. My boyfriend got the nachos and was equally disappointed because the nacho chips were those store bought football game nachos and cheese. The nachos came with pork and jalapeños. I had to ask for my receipt, service was slow, restaurant was not clean and I'm glad I got my food to go. Pro: The prices are great!

We got here just as they opened on Saturday and a few larger parties had just come in. We started…read morewith mozzarella sticks for an appetizer and I had a diet Dr Pepper. Was super excited to see they have that good crushed ice! The mozzarella sticks were hot and fresh and they served them to us with their homemade ranch. My sister and I both got the breadsticks. Mom had a loaded baked potato and my fiance had the pulled pork sandwich lunch special. The good: mom's baked potato with all 3 meats was super good. The chicken was smoky and super tender and moist. Next time we would all probably choose just the chicken. It's a huge portion so have a big appetite if you order this. There's also a large variety of barbecue sauces on the table. We loved the mustard based one. Amanda's sauce is also smoky and a little sweet but super tasty. We didn't try the others. The okay, but I wouldn't say bad: the loaded breadsticks are good but they aren't as good as Mama Rosa's and it all comes down to the crust. Mama Rosa's are softer and cheesier. A little more buttery too. The ones at SJ's were good, but not great and the cheese seemed like it was probably pre shredded and bagged so it didn't melt down too good. No brown/caramelized areas of cheese on top, ya know? The bread was bland and sort of hard. It took a fair bit of sauce and ranch to make it have much of a taste at all because the bread really overpowered the taste of the meat and cheese. The quality of the meat on our breadsticks vs what was on mom's potato was night and day and they were almost the same meats. My fiancé's sandwich was okay but he said it wasn't anything special. We had been here quite a bit in the past for family parties, and I definitely recommend them for those. They have party rooms and great service for those parties. Food quality just seemed a bit less than what I'd had from here before.
