I had wanted to come here for awhile and when I finally did it was a bit disappointing. I had the brisket grilled cheese and one half was entirely just a fat cap (giant slimy white fat blobs) which was disgusting and inedible, the other half was actually the brisket rather than just the fat but it was nearly flavorless. I don't know if it was extremely undersalted or what, but it tasted like meat - plain just meat. Not seasoned, not full of brisket flavor, no hint of being barbecued (and the bbq was off...), and was basically a complete letdown. I think from the fact everything but the inside cooking machines were off shows the brisket was not fresh at all too which may have contributed to the flavor issue and the enormous fat-cap sandwich. I actually got a brisket sandwich at Arby's a couple weeks later and it had a lot more flavor and the texture and cook was perfect and I did not get any massive fat piles - Arby's should not be better than a local BBQ...
I'd honestly be fine with the brisket being tasteless, but an entire half-sandwich of fat goop there's no excuse for and no way they did not visually see as they put it together and still chose to serve it.
On the side I had baked beans which were very delicious but they tasted identical to canned Bush's Baked Beans which I eat fairly often, which leads me to think it's very possible they just use those.
The service was really nice and one of the staff even came around to ask how the food was, which while I don't like personally (rather be left alone unless it's at a restaurant where they get me a refill or something), I know is a big positive for most people and even though I'd rather be left alone I still appreciated the sentiment.
The building itself is very small and has almost no room, but that's not at all their fault and it wasn't uncomfortable or anything, but if it ever got busy you'd have nowhere inside or out (there is no outdoor seating) to eat.
I may return again some day to see if something else on the menu surprises me (I still hope it will, I'd love for this place to be worth returning to), but for now I really don't see any reason to come back nor to recommend it, sadly. It's a barbecue restaurant with the barbecue off most of the time, so you know you're eating frozen leftovers from when they had it on last, maybe if you see them actually cooking outside it'd be worth stopping in - but that won't stop them from serving you two bread slices with a pile of melting fat. read more
