We ordered the 'That's My Boy' and 'Meet Meat' pizza plus their fries. Their deep dishes were light and crispy. I loved the sweet sauce, jalapeño and ricotta cheese combo on That's My Boy pizza. The Mastiff Fries had a wonderful crispy texture. They are like thinly sliced potato wedges. (Our order is without cilantro which normally comes with it) The staff was super friendly and the restaurant was clean. They did have two tv screens playing the sports channel and had a variety of draft beer options.

Found my way here for a burger. I had heard of it but never had been. So my expectations were…read moresomewhat up. Since I am gluten free I got my burger lettuce wrapped. I had never had a smash burger before so again my expectations were a little more than the average person. They did not disappoint the flavors were so delicious. I especially enjoyed the garlic aioli more than I thought I would (it is more like a mayo for this burger). The burger came with a a handful of pickled peppers and mini pickles on side. They were good but felt a little out of place for my taste. This place is definitely more of a bar feel than I expected and smaller than I thought it would be, and the seating was tight with most all the tables being bar height. The last thing to keep in mind the parking lot is small but there is street parking, but is leads to residential area so it can be limited to. Overall the burger had good flavor and I will be back to try more on the menu. If you are looking for a beer with your burger there was a lot of choices. Also, if you are into sports, there are several televisions on with a few different events playing.

I appreciated the ability to customize my menu items based on wide dietary preferences, which I took advantage of by subbing the pork bacon for veggie bacon on my Goth Burger. While waiting for our food, offspring and I played some Fox v Link on the N64, which was a great way to pass the time. Food came fast, and we were generously comped an order of Horchata cream filled churro bites--they were the ideal final sweet morsel to end the meal. Burgers are slim, creative smashburgers, with lots of fun Mexican and Asian influences. The only item that fell slightly flat for me was the Mexican poutine, as the mole wasn't my favorite, but I'm a bit of a mole snob so quickly fixed things by dipping the yummy crinkle fries into ketchup instead.

My partner has said this is the closest to home cooking she's used to where she's from. I got the blackened shrimp and grits with a blueberry lavender lemonade. The gravy that is in the grits packs so much flavor to the dish. The grits were the right consistency and that lemonade was gone in less than 10 minutes. This is a place to pick up food, no dine in seating but service is great nonetheless!

The store was pretty busy from morning to noon so we did wait about 10 minutes to get our food. There are lots of options from sweet to savory biscuit sandwiches. I got the beignets and bacon egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was very good, not dry at all. I would definitely get this again. The beignets were very much coated. They were crunchy but soft in the middle. It was very sweet.

The space could also use some tidying--there were empty boxes/trash near the bathrooms and behind the tables, plus the dishwasher's door was wide open so that felt a little odd with no privacy for them. As for the food: chicken tenders were a 7/10--very tender but a little too salty for me. The sweet tea balanced it out, and the crispy tater tots and pimento mac & cheese were great. Their biscuits are definitely worth trying--light and fluffy! The beignets are more biscuit-shaped but still delicious. I'd definitely eat here again, but I'd probably do takeout next time due to the wait time to order and limited seating.

Everything was so good that when they opened their brick-and-mortar location, we ordered a bunch of trays for a birthday party. Definitely check out their Instagram too--they're always posting their amazing food and hilarious stories. We'll absolutely be back!

The pulled pork was delicious and the smoked meatloaf had just the right amount of smoke. For sides, I got the bacon, potato salad and the Street corn. I've had both of these sides before and they hit just right each time. I also ordered the bourbon pecan pie to go. This is the first time having the bourbon pecan pie. I did find some shelves in it, which were a little unpleasant, but at least I know that it's real pecans. It does have a strong bourbon flavor so it may not be the best for kids. To drink, I got the guava lemonade. I arrived with my pup and we sat outside. Everybody was super dog friendly. They brought a nice bowl of water for my guy. I ended up taking 2/3 of my meal home because the portions are big enough for two.

Furthermore, we asked for collared greens as one of the three choices of sides and they gave us coleslaw instead. I hate coleslaw with a passion. Only great thing that came from this whole experience was the staff, they were very friendly and helpful.
