I've never been and wasn't hungry, but I agreed to meet him and my niece. After dodging huge potholes in the parking lot (the entire parking lot was a wreck) and parking I walked in with my drink from McDonald's. A large man immediately grabbed menus and said "no outside drinks allowed!" He was quite rude about it and said "it's written on the door. Just telling you the rules" fair enough... I pushed the drink cup out of my reach at that point. Not a great first impression for my first time there. I was planning on ordering an appetizer or something to snack on while I was there, but I quickly changed my mind after that first interaction. The dining room looked like a hodge podge of beaten up old tables and chairs, scuffed up flooring, and a tacky home made tshirts over in the corner with a window air conditioner hanging out the wall. If you're looking for a clean, well kept establishment, keep looking. The waitresses asked two or three times if we knew what we wanted after being told that we needed a few minutes. Looking at the menu, I see WHY no outside drinks are allowed. $3.00 for a single canned drink and for each refill. I guess their "family tradition" is to price gouge? Peeking back in the kitchen made me glad I didn't order anything and worried for my brother. There were several people walking around and carrying on without any gloves in what looked like a "well used" kitchen. Not to mention a couple warming dishes/crock pots from Walmart keeping the lunch specials warm. My brother said his food was fine, but an omelet , an 11.00 lunch special (niece), water, and iced tea came out to over 30.00! A printed sign in the wall also alerted patrons "to go cups $1.00 NO EXCEPTIONS!" I'm just confused between all of the crosses and "Jesus saves" plastered all over the menu and walls why these folks are as rude as they are. I love little hole-in-the wall restaurants, especially with a little small town charm, but I definitely won't consider this place the next time I'm back in town. I completely understand and respect the business' rules, but there's a respectful way of delivering a message. This place could be good with a little more effort and a bit less bad attitude. The building looks incredibly rundown and if you're not careful pulling in/out of the parking lot you're likely to end up with damage to your vehicle.

I've never seen a BBQ joint take longer than 2 minutes in my life. The portion size was good and the brisket was solid, the sauce was alright. The potato salad was entirely without chunks, reminded me of baby food, not good at all. The fries, rice, and fried okra was good. I tried my buddies fried pickles and they were the worst I've ever had. All in all I have mixed feelings, the place would be four stars if I didn't have to wait outside in the Texas heat for half an hour.
