A choice of booths or tables, bar seating and a small patio. This week, I had their chicken pesto sandwich on gluten free bread and found it very flavorful. My friend got their club sandwich and he loved it. We both had their seasonal side--cucumber salad which was light and refreshing. Thanks Perfect Pear for being a solid go to.

I ordered an Arnold Palmer and the chicken club sandwich with a few substitutions. Our server was really accommodating with my dietary preferences, and the sandwich was generously portioned. Overall, definitely one of my favorite lunch spots in the South Tempe area. Just be prepared for a wait if you're coming during peak lunch hours!

Came with some friends for dinner, one of them hadn't been before so we were glad to introduce her to this gem. This night we started with an order of the mozzarella sticks, which was a first and so glad we tried them because I want them every time we come now! Four sticks to an order along with a small bowl of their wonderful marinara sauce. They were lightly breaded and fried to perfection and when you bit into one, you got that mozzarella pull! We decided to try the pizza salad this time around and so glad we did because it was truly delicious. Comes with an oregano vinaigrette and of course I also asked for a side of ranch (theirs is really good) and I love the combo of dressings! Again, another favorite discovered! This time we decided on the Meat-Za flat bread and it was amazing! It is made with red sauce, pepperoni, sausage, salami, Italian seasoning all on top of their most wonderful flat bread pizza crust. Really, really good! Friends got the BBQ Chicken flat bread as well as a half Elote and half Meat-Za and she loved it. The BBQ chicken was good as well so will get that one next time! The Elote we experienced previously and it is so good!!! It was busy this evening we were there but food took no time to get to us and service was what you expect! You order at the counter, are given a number and food is delivered to you at your table. This is truly one of our favorites in the rotation now...

The food speaks for itself, delicious brisket sandwiches, Mac n cheese and wings is what we got. The Carolina gold and AZ sauce are by far our favorite.

This is a table-service restaurant where you can order either at the counter or via QR code menu at your table. We chose the QR code option for the interactive experience. The menu offered straightforward selections with an impressive range of sauce pairings to complement each protein choice. My lady selected the brisket accompanied by okra and Mac-n-cheese. I went with the 2 Meat Combo featuring Ribs and Pulled Chicken, served with a Cornbread Muffin and two distinct sauces (AZ Heat & Carolina Gold). The brisket and ribs truly stood out as our favorite proteins, especially when paired with the Gouda Mac bites, okra, cornbread muffin, and green chili corn. The flavors were absolutely exceptional--we couldn't get enough. These items alone would bring us back repeatedly. The pulled chicken and Mac-n-cheese were delicious but didn't quite match the excellence of the other dishes. The tarts were outstanding--a perfect meal finale featuring house-baked pastries topped with complementary ingredients that elevated the dessert experience. The ambiance felt genuinely welcoming, with the owners present to take orders and serve guests personally. They have a few TV in the area that had sports on as well for entertainment. Self-service beverages were convenient while they prepared and delivered our food. My partner and I both concluded that "THIS IS OUR BBQ SPOT IN CHANDLER...PERIOD!" We highly recommend visiting this restaurant. Support Word of Mouth Grill and Pitmaster Demetrious along with his wife Jacque--you won't regret it. We're looking forward to our next visit!

They have excellent breakfast meals. I usually get the one with eggs, bacon or sausage, pancakes, biscuits and sides such as cheesy hash browns or grits. The portions are huge and I always leave full and satisfied! I also like their southern fried chicken because they give you four pieces and you can choose between two or three sides. Two sides is plenty and I especially like their fried okra and green beans. I even ask for a side of gravy to smother my fried chicken with. It's delicious! Along with the restaurant, there is a cute country store attached to it where you can buy cute knick knacks, souvenir items, clothing, snacks, etc. I like to browse around after I eat to let all my food digest. In front of the store, they have rocking chairs lined up for people to sit and rock while they wait. Additionally, the staff is always nice and pleasant and I love the old ladies that work the hostess stand or cashiers. This place is a classic favorite!

We got the s'mores pizookie for dessert and I really enjoyed it. It's baked to order so it takes a little bit but I thought it was worth it.

I help myself to the condiment bar where I grabbed some pickles, onion and pickled jalapeños to go for my sandwiches. Americana decor covered the walls providing a relaxing atmosphere. Great place to watch sports with many TVs throughout the restaurant. The chop brisket sandwiches were delicious and juicy. Looking forward to returning for breakfast tacos and trying the turkey. Highly recommended! Pro tip #1: Spicy Chop Brisket sandwiches are 2 for 1 on Tuesdays. Pro tip #2: Breakfast tacos provide a value option for early risers.

This is the worst cobbler I've ever had! 3/4 of it is nothing but crappy crust. There's very little peach in it. This is 1/2 of the quart I got that came in the Styrofoam cup in the picture for $19. After looking at the receipt again I was irritated by the insane cost of the worst ribs ever. $63 for a rack of babyback ribs is the highest in town. Most places get $32 to $38 a rack. I admit that I made the mistake of going here, but never again! My efforts to try their smoked prime rib was a worthless journey. I call about 10 times looking for medium rare prime rib, and they never had it. They didn't have it the day they told me they did. I asked for a pound and a half of prime rib, and I got 3/4 that was only slightly pink in the very center. It was cold and had no aju, and no juice whatsoever in the meat! There wasn't even much smoke flavor at all. Worst prime rib ever! There's much better BBQ around for much less money!

Unfortunately, this visit was a huge disappointment. We arrived about an hour before closing and sat down as we normally do. While I was walking to the restroom, which is located past the kitchen area, I heard a server/bartender we've seen several times before ask the cook, in an obviously annoyed tone, if two people had just arrived. When he said yes, she responded, "Who the fuck!?" The cook then looked directly at me. At that point, I honestly felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to leave. We decided to stay since my boyfriend had already ordered a beer, but the experience immediately felt different. We felt like our presence was an inconvenience simply because we came in an hour before closing. Unfortunately, the food didn't make up for it. We ordered the beef skewers and a burger. The skewers were okay, but they were not nearly as good as we remembered them being. The burger, however, arrived completely cold. What makes this especially disappointing is that we used to really enjoy coming here. We understand that being close to closing time can be frustrating for a restaurant, but customers should still feel welcomed, especially when they are coming in well before closing and have supported the restaurant in the past. We really hope this was just a bad night, because we genuinely used to love coming here. But after this experience, we unfortunately left feeling very disappointed.
