Authentic BBQ, this place is a gem and was much needed in this area. Slow-cooked for hours upon hours and it shows! — the meat is soo juicy. My husband and I find ourselves wanting and wanting to come back. The place opened a little over a month ago at the time I’m writing this review, but I found out about this bbq joint about 2 weeks ago — I’ve already eaten here 5 times.
All of the meat is 100% HALAL. As a Muslim, this is AWESOME. I have tried many BBQ places before I became Muslim and I can confidently affirm that this place is LEGIT it is real slow-cooked bbq, I’m so impressed.
The staff is super friendly and very, very efficient. The place is very clean and welcoming. I really like it here.
I’ve tried several dishes now and have no complaints, the food is great. The dishes I’ve tried are as follows:
1/2 lb Brisket Platter: meat pulls apart so easily. Not chewy, perfectly soft. Platter comes with two sides of your choice plus bread.
1 lb Ribs Platter: topped with sweet with a hint of tangy BBQ sauce, deliciously blackened ends, nice ratio of fat:meat. Meat is soft and pulls apart easily. Platter comes with two sides of your choice and bread.
Brisket Sandwich: hefty amount of brisket meat on a burger bun, topped with bbq sauce and coleslaw. Very tasty, but the coleslaw makes the burger very cold very fast. I would have liked the coleslaw on the plate and I could add it as I go. My only complaint with this dish is that the price is steep for only the sandwich, wish it came with at least a small side of fries.
Philly Cheesesteak: my favorite item on the menu so far. Extremely flavorful. Brisket meat accompanied with bell peppers and sautéed onions, all topped with cheese on sub bread. A standard Philly, but with brisket meat. Again, for the price, I wish it came with a small side. Flavor-wise though, 10/10 and highly recommended it.
This place is a solid 9.5/10 for me. The only drawback is the steep prices of the sandwiches/burgers. For the price I really feel that they could include a small side. Other than that being the only thing, this place is AMAZING. I can’t recommend it enough. I’ve brought my extended family here and they also LOVED IT.

Read moreThis was my 1st time dining here after reading many reviews and research into "halal". I did not understand what that meant so I "Googled" it and after talking to my husband he said-so they must not serve pork. So do some research if you need more explanation into the culture. Well I'm not a huge pork fan but I am all about the brisket so that was fine with me! But if you are looking for bbq pork go somewhere else, but if you are craving the best brisket hands down...this is your new favorite place. At least it is mine ❤ Let me start off by saying WOW! The brisket was probably the best brisket that I have ever eaten. It was so juicy and tender. I had the brisket sandwich which had some bbq sauce and coleslaw on it. It was so juicy that I had juice running down my arms! My husband had the brisket plate which was 2 large slabs of juicy brisket. The sides that we had were bbq beans and mac&cheese. The sides were just ok. We are used to baked beans flavored with pork and with chuncks of pork in the beans. Well clearly we weren't getting that here so the beans for us were just ok. The mac&cheese was also plain and nothing special. This is the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. The french fries that we got however were crazy good! Super crispy and salty without being overly salted. We received a large cup of fries, enough to share. The restaurant is in a strip mall which always gives me pause because, where is the smoker? I want to smell that wood burning and meat cooking. I did smell it when we got out of the car but I wasn't sure until our food came out. I am very excited that we have such a great brisket bbq place close to home and can't wait to go back and try the philly brisket and the brisket fries and onion rings 😍 don't hesitate to try this restaurant, you won't be disappointed!
*Day after update- With his brisket plate, my husband recieved a corn muffin and we brought it home to eat at a later time. I had it this morning with my coffee and I can report that it was delicious. The muffin appeared to be homemade. It was just slightly sweet, had a nice moist texture and the surprise for me was that it had a nice light smoky flavor! They must bake or keep the corn muffins near the smoker. It was...
Read moreI have seen multiple times people posting about this restaurant on social media so had to try it. First of all there are not a lot of restaurants offering halal brisket and Beef Ribs, and me being a fan of Baray Ka Gosht, won’t let it slide in my mind. So we came with 2 other family friends. We ordered Brisket Sandwich, Beef Short Ribs Platter, Wagyu Burger, Brisket Philly and Kids Ham Burger. Just to give you short answer, Wagyu burger was winner for us. Ribs came in second place and tgen Brisket sandwich and then ham sandwich. Brisket Philly was ok. Fries were good as well. Now the long answer is Ribs were awesome no doubt but Burger was like melting in mouth so had to put it on top. Brisket sandwich was good but not better than Wagyu or Ribs. Philly sandwich was ok. Not that restaurant made it low key but it’s not something we like to order again. Fries were surprisingly good. Also the loaded fries were good too. One of the kids also got wings and wings are same all over the world. The owner and people worked there were really nice and good in service. So it’s like a place I would like to come back. The portion size I think should be bigger or at least should come with one side.

Suggestion for owner: You are doing amazing job Masha-Allah, just my two cents, either make portion bigger or add one side to main entree. Also the kids meal always comes with a side and drink, so add that for sure.
Suggestion for customer: The place is not big so try to come either with 5 people or come in non usual times. Also portion sizes are not enough so consider ordering sides for sure.
Above format would be best to justify my review so i will hopefully continue to keep this for all my...
