    Simply one of the best BBQ joints I have ever eaten in. And, I am a BBQ snob! Everything was so very good, pulled pork, chicken, and ribs, but the brisket was truly exceptional! And, the fried chicken deviled eggs are an absolute masterpiece! Don't miss this place if you are anywhere near Columbus.

    I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the staff. You truly made my fiancée and I’s night unforgettable. The romantic ambiance was incredibly warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a special evening. Although I can’t recall the names of my server and the hostess—who I believe was the lovely blonde lady in the rose shirt—I want you to know how much their efforts meant to us. I was so touched when she reached out earlier in the week to confirm our reservation and to inquire about how I planned to surprise my fiancée with the earrings. Knowing how anxious I was about the entire plan, it meant the world to have such thoughtful support from the team. They truly went above and beyond to ensure that our night was memorable, and it absolutely was! Our server was fantastic as well. He really knew the menu inside and out, providing wonderful suggestions to help us navigate our first experience at the restaurant. We are already looking forward to making another reservation because this place has quickly become our favorite, even surpassing Hyde Park downtown in our eyes. Thank you once again from the bottom of my heart for creating such a calming and beautiful atmosphere for our Valentine’s Day dinner. We can’t wait to return soon! - Nathan H.

    It was crazy busy. Seated about 20 minutes after reservation time. Staff was working hard to get people seated fast.

    We had such a nice waitress which really made our Valentine’s Day dinner enjoyable. Great chocolate covered strawberry martini and delicious hush puppies!! It was nice that the outside fire pit was lit creating a warm feeling inside on a cold night.
