$50 for two burnt end plates and 2 sodas. Burnt ends - as it says, in the name are supposed to be at least somewhat burnt and crispy. Longer cooking process render the fat from the meat. Leaving behind delicious, crispy edges, and chewy textured meat full of flavor. However, these “ Burnt ends” were cubes of fat globules that were bland and not even close to crispy. Whether or not you sauce your meat prior to pulling it off the grill is a matter of taste and opinion. But if you choose not to do that, (resulting in tasty, sweet and spicy caramelized sauce that’s baked into the surfaces of the burnt ends), Then you better damn, sure use enough dry rub prior to putting them on the grill to make sure that there is flavor left on the meat before you put it on a plate. This was not the case in this instance with our visit to this restaurant. Not only were they not burnt, and not caramelized; they were also bland.

Might also add that this restaurant asks For a tip paying. This always leaves me a little uncomfortable, especially on a first time visit when I didn’t know what to expect. You wait in line to place your own order at the front, wait in line to pay for your order, after which you are given your own cups, so you can get your own drinks, and then you The window to get your own food And bring it to a table that you find yourself. I can’t fathom the point of why they are asking for tips - nor who they would give the tips too??? We got our own drink refills, Our own sauces, our own place settings…. There was no service at all whatsoever.

Lastly, I’ll say that the restaurant is concrete floored, with no ceiling, tiles and hard surface seating, so there is nothing to dampen the music which is playing too loudly, when combined with restaurant ambient noise, diners shouting over each other, and the music, the clang of silverware and children yelling. It doesn’t make for a comfortable environment in which to have a nice conversation with your table mates.
