I've only been on Saturdays so far. One visit was pretty busy, but the service was still fast and efficient. The other time, it was much quieter, and we were served almost immediately. Either way, the staff has been consistently friendly and the experience smooth. The prices are also very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food. Whether you're in a rush or planning to sit and savor your meal, Laguna hits the mark. I'm already looking forward to going back!

My husband and I finally got to visit Wise Choice Custom Meats today! We were super excited to find…read morethis local meat market, as we normally order through Porter Road and have to wait on shipping for weeks sometimes. This is a game changer :D There are freezers full of delicious frozen offerings, fries, jalepeno taters, fried pickles, etc, and we grabbed a few to try. Also, there is a wall of quite the selection of local honey, jams, etc. BUT the real gem, the raw meat counter was chock-full of incredible cuts and varieties of meats! We decided to try to the cordon bleu chicken and brisket poppers this trip, as well as an 18 pound brisket, YUM! The employees were ready to help with any questions and even handed us a basket when our hands started to get too full. So grateful! I will note for future review readers, there is about a 4% card charge. Apparently there are signs that I missed while I was busy bouncing my eyes from product to product, so I ended up having to call once I got home about why the receipt showed a much high price than the label on the meats. So, the price label on the products is the cash price, totally understandable! In conclusion, Wise Choice exceeded our expectations on meat selection, and they even have Diet Dr Pepper and Topo Chico (I didn't have to run to Walmart for sodas! Woohoo!). Thanks team!!

We wanted to just drive around the lake (which as it turns out isn't actually possible, we will wait until it is less hot to try the bike trail). This place is highly rated and I believe I remember something about the DLT (duck, lettuce and tomato) sandwich on DDD a loooong time ago. Today was the day, it is located in a strip mall and there is only about 4 counter seats, so we were prepared to eat in the car, but the place was empty. We ordered from the pretty grumpy/personality devoid cashier and waited for our order. He didn't greet us, he mumbled back one word answers to our questions, he didn't even really tell us when our food was up, it was placed on the counter and I had to ask if it was ours... (come on man!, you are the front of house, PLEASE make an effort!) We ordered 2 sandwich combo plates, mine was the DLT with beans and hubbs got the brisket sammy with chili-mac. Both for me were pretty underwhelming. Not much smoke flavor and just okay in terms of delicious-ness. I did enjoy the cherry sauce on the DLT, I did not enjoy the raw onions on the brisket. I would love to say I wanna go back to try other things, but I just won't - it just wasn't good enough. Note I rarely give 3 stars, so this is a low score for me. The chili-mac had about 1/4" of water on the bottom of it. I did like the beans, but the "combo" side is minuscule, only slightly larger than those containers that you get your sauce in from Raising Cane's. Also - can we just PLEASE upgrade to perforated paper towels on the counter, I bet you think you are saving money with the cheap un-perforated ones, but really - I wasted so much more of the roll trying to get them to rip off. Some reviews mentioned the delicious desserts (the cherry crumble) - but they were out of everything except the banana pudding, so we passed and went to the highly rated bakery in the same strip mall a few stores down.

We ordered their St. Louis Style Ribs, Brisket, Pork Rib Tips and Original Sausage. Our sides were their Smoked Mac & Cheese, Cranberry Walnut Slaw, and Southern Green Beans. The meats were cooked very well and tender, they had a nice Smokey flavor and rub. We favored their JP BBQ sauce over our meats - it was on the sweeter side with a good "tang" to it. The Southern Green Beans were average and not overly salted. I really like the slaw that had a sprinkle of cranberries and walnuts in it - very different but it worked! The Smoked Mac & Cheese had a nice flavor to it, nice and cheesy with just the right hint of smoke. Overall, we enjoyed the meal, the service, and the ambiance. We would definitely come back to this place.

My favorites are the Rooster Tails (fried onions) and the chips and queso, but the real stars of the menu are the burgers. They're always fresh, hot, and juicy. The free peanuts are a nice touch, and they offer daily specials as well. I really miss the Bloody Mary bar, which was always a lot of fun, but their Sunday special makes up for it with a generous double for just $7. There's always a game on TV, which is a welcome break when you've had enough politics to last a lifetime. The servers and bartenders are consistently friendly, welcoming, and helpful. And whatever you do, don't forget to ask about the Yahtzee Roll at the bar. If you know, you know!

There's a full bar on both floors as well. The staff was pretty attentive, but the wait for food took a long time. I was happy the cocktails came pretty quickly and were well-made. The food was all pretty good for the most part not wowed but good! I have no complaints about my plate; it came with a great portion of food and was reasonably priced for BBQ. I ordered pulled pork and a side of corn and tomato salad and coleslaw. The sides were different from what I've had before, but I did enjoy them. Their coleslaw is more vinegar than mayo-forward. The pulled pork was well-seasoned, and the side of BBQ was the perfect match. My margarita tasted as if they made the mix in-house, and I prefer this. Store-bought mixers are usually either too sweet or too sour. However, if it is store-bought, I'm impressed! This was not a sweet margarita. My partner went for the Tennessee Texas Hot Sandwich; I did try it. There was hardly any heat despite it being their spicy chicken sandwich. I'm not sure if they make their chips in house but it seemed so.
