There are indoor and front porch tables. Order and pay at front, fill your drink cups and dispense some sauces, find your seats, and they deliver the food to your table. Service was friendly, single bathroom was clean, parking was ample. Enjoyed the well-seasoned collard greens and the simple fresh potato salad. Ribs and brisket were tender, but I didn't discern any flavor from smoke or a rub--pretty bland, so were used as sauce delivery devices. Two flavors of sauces weren't especially remarkable, but adequate.

This was so disappointing. First, when we walked in and were alerted they only had chicken & pork…read moreat a BBQ place that shouldn't been the first hint. We sat down anyway to give it a try. My party was 9 people, and I know bigger groups take longer to serve but we were there over an hour, and the place wasn't even busy. It didn't need to take that long. And once we got the food, it was absolutely not worth the wait. The mac n cheese was gross, basically watery noodles with fake cheese. The pulled pork was dry and no amount of barbecue could save it. The cole slaw was alright but nothing magical. Really the only thing I tried that I liked was my friends chicken caesar wrap- but this is a barbecue place, like come on. The one good thing was our waitress was very sweet and did her best. I didn't catch her name. Really wished we would've tried somewhere else to eat so we didn't waste so much time waiting, and for food that wasn't even satisfying.

We used Yelp to find this place--and WOW were we impressed. We wanted the smoked turkey and…read morecollards but they didn't have any that say. We made an easy pivot to the brisket platter, potato salad, beans, slaw, and Brunswick Stew. My husband and I shared it, and it was plenty for two. If we'd stayed another day we would have gone back. It was the best food in the area. We loved the outdoor porch and seeing the lake. A friendly employee chatted with as he wiped tables. The lady at the counter was a bit curt, but we'll overlook that as I'm sure the lunch rush wore her out. We told our friends how much we enjoyed this place. Then we found out they'd catered their son's small Covid era wedding. Look ahead for the limited days and hours. We'll be back!

We were just past the lunch crowd at 1:11 arrival on a Thursday, but there was still a decent crowd in the restaurant. Booths are big, room for eight regular sized folk. We were only two. Collard greens were on the menu today as was potato skin fingers and Brunswick stew. I chose the brisket plate, wet, with collards and baked beans. My wife got the same with collards and potato skins. Each of those was a premium side for an extra $2.50, but well worth it. Every single thing we ate was a 10 out of 10. We loved the collards,, tender, served with hot pepper vinegar, as the Good Lord intended and not sweet, like the heretics that put brown sugar in their collards. The brisket was Smokey and tender and perfectly seasoned, add a bit of hot bbq sauce. Baked beans were sweet, as they should be, and had some meat chunks in there, again, as they ought. A slice of Texas Toast accompanied. We were initially overlooked as our server, Robin, didn't know that we had been seated. She was apologetic about our three minute wait - which tells you, Robin is a great server! I mean, it was only three minutes, but she took our drink order and our food order at the same time, immediately served drinks and 15 minutes later served our food. The space will fit a lot of folks. This was an excellent lunch choice, good for crowds, good for single diners too. It was so good, we figured it's only 87 miles from our home in Greenville, SC and could be an occasional day trip destination for lunch. Or, we need to convince the family to open up a Greenville location. There's an idea. Don't hesitate to dine here, and consider bringing a cooler for some "to go" orders for later. You won't regret it.

I ordered the smoked turkey with slaw and brunswick stew. The turkey was very good. The slaw decent. The brunswick stew tasted fine. But It was not the Brunswick stew I like. I like everything ground. There should not be potatoes and lima beans in it! It was a BBQ Soup. But that is my opinion on Brunswick stew! One of my sons got the Brisket Philly. He said it was good. And another ordered the chicken bacon ranch. He thought a sandwich but was a pizza. It had a ton of onions he picked off. Otherwise he liked it. Very clean dining room. Decent food. Sauce was ok. Nothing special.
