Today was even better the guy in the purple shirt (sorry don’t know his name) cutting the meat was superior! Very good customer service! See yall next week! ”
“ Excellent friendly service. The food was amazing, portions matched prices. Everything we ate had wonderful flavor. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was really good. (We enjoyed all of it but that stood out today) Barely used any bbq sauce because the meat was so flavorful. Sweet tea tastes like good sweet Texas tea! Husband and I ordered the sampler plate and shared it and had we some leftover! I would definitely recommend this BBQ restaurant. We will be enjoying this place again and again. ”
