"This place popped up on Facebook so we thought we would give it a try. OMG it is such a cool place and the food is a amazing. We got the pulled pork sandwich and it was the best we ever had. We will definitely be going back."

"Amazing BBQ. We had the ultimate sampler with Chicken, Ribs, Brisket, and Kielbasa with fresh cut chips and onion rings. Amazing! All of the meat was smoked perfectly. Meat was high quality - lots of moist meat with out being too fatty). And the chips and onion rings were just how I like them, crispy but not burnt. Excellent service, nice outdoor seating area. Highly recommend!"

- Chip E.

"My favorite spot. Take out or dine in this is the place of all places for bbq. Everything is awesome. Brisket, fantastic burgers, great chicken, and even better sides! The indoor and outdoor seating is unmatched, just like their flavors. Can't wait to come back again and again as I work my way through the entire menu."

"Me and the guys been going here every Friday for lunch. Food is delicious. They have alcohol. They have raw meat ready to go. Quality looks superb. Hot food they sell is delicious. Many sauces to try to find your favorite. I don't care for the broccoli salad... although I love broccoli.. but outside of that i can't say anything but delicious perfectness comes from this grille. The barbecue here is some of thee very best I have ever had! I'll add the yummy food photo next Friday. I usually don't make it out of the parking lot before devouring it."

- Mike R.

"We ordered the Brisket Tacos... TOTALLY YUMMY! Loaded with meat & fresh veggies. Came with 2 Tacos & a side. A bit on the pricey side... our 2 orders came to $39.00! (No drink, 1 taco was more than enough, we took home leftovers.) Although the parking lot has plenty of Handicap accessible parking, there is no reserved handicap parking. NOT all of the outdoor seating IS WHEELCHAIR accessible; as most tables have seating without spaces in-between. I asked the guys to clean up a little so I could take good pics of the kitchen area & bbq. Unfortunatly-they did not do so. Knowing that the food prep area is in full view of the customers; the cleanliness of the kitchen and coverings over food/food prep area leaves something to be desired here. Although the food was excellent; I won't be eating here very often at all. The prices and the state of the prep area ultimately make this place a no-go for me."
