The 3 rating is mainly based on how we felt about our food. We love barbecue and were excited to see this place had good ratings... but we were very disappointed. More on that below.
Our server was very good up to the point where our food was delivered. She never did come back to ask if the food was okay. We certainly could have flagged her down, but I think it's important for a server to check in to ensure the customer has everything they need and that there are no issues with the order.
We ordered pulled pork, ribs and chicken wings with a side of green beans, apple slices in cinnamon, mac and cheese and the corn nuggets.
The good-
The corn nuggets were very tasty. They were deep fried, which I don't typically like, but a few reviews mentioned them so I took a chance. They are coated in honey sauce and they actually are very tasty and have actual kernels of corn in them. Our server recommended the mac and cheese and it was indeed very good. My husband's apple slices were also a win.
The bad-
My pulled pork was incredibly hot and dried out. I really suspect that the pork was cooked much earlier on if not a day earlier and then microwaved. I make it myself and I've never made it this dry. My husband's spare ribs were mostly dried out also, although he said one of them was moist and he liked it. However, his smoked chicken wings were also dried out, although they did have a good flavor.
I truly get the feeling that nothing was cooked fresh, but was microwaved or deep fried on demand. At a genuine barbecue restaurant, you should smell food smoking as you approach, but that was not the case here. Also, my husband said his green beans were canned, so if you don't like canned green beans, go with a different option!
This was a free comedy night going on. That's the reason we came - my husband found the writeup about it on Eventbrite. We were excited about it since we are on a tight budget and it was nice to be able to have free entertainment. What we didn't realize was that it was starting an hour later than what was advertised (said 7, but started at 8). Plus, we also did not realize that there would be about a dozen comedians testing out their new jokes to see if they were good or not. Most were not, but there was a sparse turnout / crowd so it was a little awkward because we are not mean people and we didn't want these poor fellas hanging out to dry up there. So, we felt compelled to laugh and be very attentive even when we didn't really think things were all that funny or engaging. Sorry for the criticism, but it's just something that you might want to be aware of if you are planning to attend.
