From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the smell of smoked meat, and you know you're in for something special. It's a quaint little place with community-style picnic table seating indoors, and you can tell it gets busy during peak hours. The staff treated us like family from the moment we walked in and made us feel right at home. I ordered the baby back ribs and brisket, and both were outstanding. The collard greens were hands down the best I've ever had, and the sweet potato soufflé was just as memorable. Even the Texas toast was incredible--I don't usually talk about bread, but this stuff was fire! The drinks were served in large cups, and the sweet tea was absolutely perfect. Dinner for two came to about $78, which might seem a little high at first, but quality barbecue isn't cheap, and every dollar was worth it. The portions were generous, everything was fresh, and this was easily one of the best barbecue meals I've had. We were so full we almost skipped dessert, but I'm glad we didn't. The homemade Key lime pie was the best we had during our entire trip to the Keys. It was smooth, creamy, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of Key lime flavor, and unlike some of the others we tried, it wasn't gritty at all. It was the perfect ending to an incredible meal. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in South Florida.

Went while in town for a soccer teams last soccer game of a 10 month season. The food was…read moreabsolutely amazing, however the staff was so bothered that a high top table entered the door her annoyance was so present the entire time we were there. Every table she assisted she referred to our table as being the problem where the tables would then be staring at us and our kids the whole time. Every ask was met with a forced smile, and rolling of the eyes as she walked away. She then went to the system to enter the orders and was pointing at us - She clearly was annoyed of having to serve a large group like ours and made the experience terrible despite the food. I understand it's inconvenient when a high number table arrives but there was still a level of service and respect that should have been present. We will never go back.

Although I was tempted by many items on this menu, I went with the mofongo chicken habanero and…read morearroz con gandules. Ladling the bone broth over each bite of mofongo created very comforting mouthfuls. I would've preferred pork belly instead of chicken, but we already had it as an appetizer so I opted for chicken habanero. I feel the breading on the chicken was a little too filling for this dish and the pork would've added some needed sweetness. Overall a substantial meal with exotic flavors. I appreciate the changing menu, and look forward to seeing what's next! Comparing older photos of the menu, there's no longer a time restriction for burgers and sandwiches (all available after 3 PM). There's a standard 15% gratuity added to each bill. Dining area felt small, and a little too close to everything. This place might benefit from an upgraded space.

The person taking our order was friendly and gave us a heads up that the chicken had a decent amount of heat, which I appreciated. Food took a little time to come out, but everything arrived fresh and hot. The burger was juicy without being messy, and the habanero chicken had good flavor beyond just spice. What stood out most was how relaxed the atmosphere felt even during the dinner rush. Staff stayed attentive and kept checking on tables without hovering too much. It felt like a solid local place people actually return to often.

Here is what we liked: * Immediate seating * greeted as soon as we walked in and service was friendly and helpful. * If you're traveling and want a home cooked meal, this was exactly that. * The chicken on the chicken Parmesan was cooked perfectly, covered with a nice golden brown melted cheese. * Two of our party got the baked fish- and all 6 of us tried it because they raved about how good it was. * The meatloaf was a good size portion. * The desserts looked amazing but we were sadly too full to try it. What could of been better: * The green beans were Just canned beans with little flavor or seasoning. * The collards greens also didn't have much flavor Wasn't a fancy place and the food wasn't award winning but it was good and it felt like genuine home cooked meal.

I think I was just raised differently than most I suppose. I try not to go out of my way to be rude to anyone and it seems the opposite for most. The young man was cool for the most part but he just kept looking at me a bit weird. He makes wonderful drinks and I wish him success in bartending. The older Spanish lady just seemed prejudice. She just kept looking at me in a nasty way but hopefully our food was fine. It tasted fine. The wings are pretty good. The burger was good. I especially liked the fries and my salad appeared fresh. I really honestly can't complain about the food and I'd order there again. It was a nice alternative to eating out in a crowded restaurant.

I can't wait to go back for those wings and I want to try the grilled cheese and tomato soup.

The food was good, but nothing that really stood out, so for me the pricing felt a little on the higher side. Parking is pretty limited and the seating inside is tight, which can make it tricky during busier times. I also tried one of the homemade juices, but the signage was a bit confusing. My friend and I thought we were picking a flavor (I chose passion fruit), but it turned out the items listed were actually the ingredients. Overall, it's a nice addition to the area and I appreciate the focus on healthier options, but there's some room for improvement.

I wasn't comfortable with that. I ordered the vegetable angle hair pasta and the vegetables were very fresh and it was a large serving size and reasonably priced but unfortunately it was bland and without a lot of flavors. I am not sure if I will give this place another try. I would prefer to try other local places.
