But the chicken sandwich was extremely dry and didn't have much flavor apart from just being spicy. The service is awful, we were in an empty restaurant and the hostess visited us twice the entire meal. No refill on our waters which were empty almost our entire visit, we asked for silverware for the table and she brought us only 1 set (we were a table of 5). I asked for ranch for the table, and she brought us 2. There was zero urgency to bring us our bill once we finished eating. I wouldn't return solely for the lack of service.

They have recently been added to the Secret Trail Brewing Company's food pop up rotations on Monday and Tuesday afternoons. I wanted to try all the meats but settled with the pulled pork sandwich topped with pig candy coleslaw and a side of German potato salad. + The sandwich's flavor was great. The pulled pork, coleslaw, and house made bbq sauce married perfectly. I struggled for a bit to find the bits of "pig candy" but when you do, it just adds another layer of texture and porkiness to the sandwich. + The German potato salad was not what I expected. Instead of mayonnaise, it's mixed with vinegar making it a welcomed, acidic accompaniment to the sandwich. - They were a bit slow to start off. I arrived around 4; they needed another 30 minutes. - I don't think they are fully equipped to handle the weather outside for a food stand as my pulled pork could've been warmer. I'm rooting for y'all! All in all the food was delicious, the issues are minor and could be improved over time.

Tonight though, the food was next level. To set the scene, the line was out the door when I arrived, but they were flying through customers. I had thankfully placed an online order & saw it ready & waiting for me. My patience was also at a miraculous high. Blessings for all. My husband got the chicken combo plate, and he has a full meals worth of food left over for tomorrow, which is thankfully typical here. In this economy?? Yes please. The katsu was so juicy and crunchy, the bbq chicken was equally tender with a good char in places. I got a poke bowl, and I swear to god in heaven the girl who made this bowl was placed on this earth to bless my dinner tonight. I need also to go back and get her skin care routine. We ordered extra sauce and they literally 3x what we paid for. ETA for the online order was 15 mins, I walked in after 14 & my food was ready. They easily has 10 tickets they were actively working through, and as stated a line out the door. The food was impeccable. Biggest shout outs to the kitchen, those guys can cook some fantastic chicken & rice. Another round of applause for the angel making poke bowls tonight. 12/10 would & do recommend.

For the meats, we tried out their BBQ pulled pork, Jerk chicken and Jerk pork. For the sides, we got Mac n cheese, baked beans, rice and side salad. We also ordered 2 lemonades, a strawberry lemonade and a sea moss strawberry lemonade. Everything was really flavorful!! We did not have a single complaint. All the meats were a must try and we'd definitely order again. The meat had a slight spice to it but coupled with the BBQ sauce it was easily manageable for our 7 yr old. He especially loved the baked beans and Mac n cheese!! The inside of restaurant was really clean and decorated beautifully. There is outdoor seating as well, but we opted for indoor. I didn't notice a bathroom inside, but that's not a deal breaker with how fast the service was.

After last night's tasty giant platter of food, I'll be back. Order: large plate, ribs and chicken with mac n cheese and green cabbage (for the health factor ). Hubby's order: small plate with brisket and mac n cheese. Plus a cherry lime fresh squeezed lemonade. This is a small place with large flavors. Seems like most orders are to-go although there is a small patio area for when it's not hotter than shit. Workers are hella kind. Customers waiting for food will chat you up about why this place is so good. The large plate was huge. Jerk chicken was spiced so well...that almost too spicy but I can't quit eating it. And not a dry chicken piece in the bunch. Ribs were smoky and spiced well. Mac and cheese, noms. Cabbage was also delish with bits of bell pepper mixed in. But I stole a bite of that brisket and I wanted more more more. From my one large plate, I have 2 additional meals of leftovers, which makes it well worth the price (and support our local places please!). Also, the hot sauce? Pretty sure it's homemade. Plates, bowls, salads, sandwiches. Starts at $9 and I think the most expensive plate was $25. You won't regret eating here.

Maybe it's because they were very busy. Not mean, not rude, just okay. Sandwiches were made quickly and correctly and are reasonably priced so that's what counts. It's small. Like tiny. And if busy the little place is stacked. A couple of tables to eat. It's fine. Lots of flies all over and I'm assuming from the open side window and the door opening all day. But that kind of grossed me out. It's a local institution and worth trying but for me it's just okay.

Good place to eat a sampling of different meats and sides that have some good flavor. 5 stars $23.50 BBQ sampler. This came with BBQ sauce on the side but it didn't need it.

Mac & Cheese, corn, and cornbread all were good compliments.
