Charm City posted a cheesesteak weekly special that we first tried on April 14th, and it was…read moreexcellent. The sandwich was fresh, packed with flavor, and topped with a savory white cheddar sauce on a seeded roll. Everything tasted high quality and well executed. A week later, the special was extended, so we went back and ordered it again on April 29th. Unfortunately, the sandwich was noticeably different the second time around. The consistency and texture of the steak had changed and felt more like frozen pre-sliced beef compared to the fresher, more consistent steak from our first visit. Even comparing the photos side-by-side, the difference is pretty noticeable. It was a bit of a letdown after such a strong first impression, but hopefully the restaurant can find a happy medium if they decide to bring this special back again.

Man, I wish I could give this spot a better review because I loved the feel of the old-school 'que…read moreplace and the service was terrific...but the food was rather bland and tasteless and many of our dishes went without finishing them. I ordered a spare rib plate with sides of fries and mac-n-cheese. The dish also came with a piece of garlic bread. To start, the ribs were a bit tough and hardly had any smoke or bark flavors. I love a rib that requires some "chew" to get them off the bone, but the toughness mentioned was not of that variety. Bottled sauces (on the tables) were alright, but nothing special. I will say the seasoned fries and gooey mac-n-cheese were both good. Lastly, the garlic bread had very little seasoning on it, more like a dry piece of toast really. Had heard such good things, but this visit really disappointed me and my (extended) family who also had similar feelings about the meals they had chosen.

Stopped in here to support small business owners and I have to admit pulling up my expectations…read morewere not exactly high given the parking lot was empty (130pm on a Friday) and I wasn't sure what to expect. Not only was I surprised at how comfortable and inviting the inside of the restaurant is, we were greeted immediately and friendly as we walked in and they were ready to take our order faster than I was even ready to place it! Menu is straight forward, wings, ribs, plates, dinners - keep it simple. Food was pretty damn good, got the jerk wings, Mac n cheese, stewed cabbage perfect plate and serving size (thank goodness I didn't get the dinner we would've never left). Gotta say that Mac n cheese....should've ordered more. Everything was delicious, home cooked, and the Carrot Cake the owner offered...tasted like home. That's about it, tastes like you stopped by Nanas house or Aunties house and dinner was waiting. Not a huge establishment, so if you're going with a large group better call ahead but we'll most certainly be back for the ribs next time and more Mac n cheese. Quaint, clean, comfortable, friendly, delicious food, can't ask for much more.

They have bbq ribs and wings as well as jerk wings. There are a bunch of sides to choose from and the Mac and cheese was tasty as was the potato salad. I decided on the jerk wings as I love a good jerk seasoning. There was the right amount of heat and flavor to make these wings perfect in my opinion. Only down fall is no sweet tea but oh well. I would definitely come back again for lunch.

The staff could not have been more accommodating, checking on is to make sure everything was right, they even offered an upgraded selection when they were out of onion rings. I so look forward to another visit soon. May try there other location up the street. Enjoy!
