So, it is NOT WISE to alienate customers that have frequented your restaurant for the last 5 years! Literally, from the day you opened! :( Welp ... here we are again ordering (to go) from what was my favorite BBQ place in my hometown and I'm sad to say ...I'm so disappointed I won't be going back absent of an apology!! :( I ordered 1/2 lb. of moist brisket & a baked potato. I ate the brisket and enjoyed it ... and then I cut into the potato to find a sweet potato. (I don't eat them because I just don't like 'em). So, I called the restaurant to let them know that I ordered a baked potato and was given a sweet potato. She looked up the order and said, "You ordered a baked sweet potato" ... to which I responded, "I don't know why I would order a sweet potato because I don't eat them". That was the point she said, "If you will bring back the sweet potato back to us... we will exchange it for a baked potato". LOL! So, I giggled and asked ... you want your potato back? To which she replied, "Yes!" So, while I was asking my husband if he felt like taking the sweet potato back to the restaurant ... this lady hung up the phone on me! FOR WHAT?? She didn't even wait to find out if we were going to make the exchange. Now, I can concede that I may have made a mistake ordering ... I don't think I did... but, it certainly is possible. However, I've been going to this restaurant for 5 YEARS ... literally since the day they opened!! So, I didn't think asking to have a baked potato because I don't eat sweet potatoes was THAT BIG of an ask! (The price of which is about $4.00: $3.39+tx). Even if I ordered it by mistake, I DON'T EAT THEM ... I just wanted a whole meal for the $25.00 I paid. So, I sent my husband back to the restaurant to make the exchange. When he returned, he described the most egregious interaction I've ever heard which included the cashier telling him: This was His Wife's fault and this would only be a 1 time exchange. They aren't happy about making this exchange because they're losing money. So, we should'n't ever expect that again in the future! Now, I don't know what EXACTLY was said because I wasn't there, but I don't have to be there to understand that if anything remotely close to this happened, then I would classify that is the POOREST SERVICE EVER!! Especially considering they are a high-end smokehouse. THIS was certainly NOT HIGH END SERVICE. AGAIN! I would suggest this place consider that when you're the high price leader in your category, not everyone can afford your food. So, it is NOT WISE to alienate customers that have frequented your restaurant for the last 5 years! Especially those that live in a country club community because I will tell all my friends and neighbors about this experience and how we were treated after being a long-term customer. While I haven't had complaints about their service in the past ... the, last time I ordered, the food was disappointing. This time, the food was okay, but the service really was lacking. I didn't appreciate them hanging up the phone and I feel that if you are going to sell High Priced food ($25.00, inc. tx {for single plate of 2 items} is pricey) then you should also have a HIGHER STANDARD OF SERVICE! It was overall ... THE WORST!!

I've tried Dallas BBQ, Fort Worth BBQ, and even Chinese BBQ. Who would have thought that Fort Smith BBQ would be on top. My experience: I came with my girlfriend and ordered catfish with ribs + okra and beans then for dessert an apple pie. I was happy that the okra was pipping hot and delicious. Great! Then I tried the catfish... Woah.. fresh, crispy, juicy catfish. Okay. Didn't expect it to be that good but whatever. Then I dipped it in the tarter sauce - okay. Now they must be kidding me. Even the tarter sauce was good. I loved the ribs, the sauce, everything! It was delicious! So what did you think I thought when I tried the Apple pie? 5/5 The people are great too

I rated this at 4 stars for a few reasons…read more 1. It's a small town BBQ joint that provides a home felt meal that is simple, tasty, and easy. It feels like an in house home cooked BBQ meal, and that just makes it feel comfortable and safe! 2. Yes, it could be more tender, smokey, and with bigger taste profile. But this would be fine if I'm just wanting something that I wouldn't be upsetting. 3. The BBQ egg rolls were great and everyone loved them! The okra was really great also! 4. The potato salad was not the best and could use improvement. The burnt ends were very sweet and sugary which isn't normal to me, but it's simple and ok. The brisket wasn't bad but everything needs more smoke. I am rating it at 4 because of everyone's feedback. As for me, I'd give it a 3 star, but still better than Central that used to be in Fayetteville...not saying much. For a local BBQ place that isn't big time it's just fine! The service was quick and easy. I'd like to see how it goes down the road.
