The barbecue is always on point. I've been lying here for over a year. No, and they never disappoint.The staff is great, professional and kind.

The best ribs in town and you can never forget the free samples for tasting on the ribs. Highly recommended.

I don't even cook ribs anymore. I always get them from Herb's. His ribs are the best in town.

This place ribs are off the chain, I was in there talking to Xavier and he was telling me about there move and some catering options, when a lady from the kitchen brought a sample of a rib tip out. I just held on to it until I walked out, as I left I munched on this rib tip, hands down the best rib tip I've ever had, I actually dropped this in the parking lot after two bits and picked that sucker back up to finish it off lol!! I then turned right back around walked in there and ordered a rib plate which came with 3 ribs and around 5/6 rib tips. It was recommended I get baked beans and potato salad great recommendations they were both solid. Can't wait to go back and get more!!

I've been eating BBQ for well over 60 years, and I think I know good BBQ from bad or mediocre BBQ. THIS IS SOME DAMN GOOD BBQ! Nuff said...

Wow! Some of the tastiest bbq I've had! As we drove up, there were several very large, smokers and barbecue pits set out outside in the front of the parking lot with delicious ribs and chicken cooking inside. As we walked inside, we were greeted, and the attendants behind the counter were very friendly, and we even got free samples of rib, tips and chicken. The meat was so good that it did not even need any barbecue sauce on. It had a little bit of a kick to it as well. We got the chicken and rib platter, which also came with rib tips and our two sides were baked beans and potato salad with two pieces of bread. Our meal was perfect for two people. The owner was also there and he was very friendly. Interior, the ambience is nice. There are a few tables set up. From what we were told that they usually sell out early on, so we got really lucky since it was rainy out. We will definitely be back and next time will save room for dessert as well! great little bbq spot!

I'm checking a new place out for lunch, let me tell you...it's really good. They greet you with a sample of the rub tips, and everything else is amazing. I sat down and ate some of my delicious rib plate (2 bones, rib tips) with Mac & Cheese and corn. Ribs had perfect smoke and flavor and just downright perfect. Make sure to stop by and grab some amazing BBQ. It's located off a major street, and you can see and smell the food/smoke from a mile a way. and it's like going back in time for the true BBQ spots off the highway and inside is like I expected, a small area for dine-in, but mostly carry out. Make sure to stop by, "you won't be disappointed!"
