The ribs are quite nice, the meat were very tender and very tasty. But the sides are bit SK disappointing... the coleslaw was tasting not fresh enough with some strange tastes...
The taco with chess and pulled porks were very nice! But they have to find a way to keep it warm... and it is so easy to become cold and taste not that appetitive... more
Pros:
Good BBQ for the price. Authenitic American cuisine (I am a yank, I know good bbq). Fall off the bone ribs and good beer always makes me feel like home.
Cons:
Not truely "Memphis" so to speak. I guess Im just used to the dry rub, so wet ribs feel a bit inauthentic to me when I think of Memphis. Also the manager would not let me switch sides from slaw and pickles to fries and let me pay... more

we came here for breakfast 1 day, and dinner a day later.
Breakfast was very enjoyable and lovely and fresh. Very tasty.
Dinner was only OK. We wanted ribs but they were all out, so went for the steak. I had to send mine back because it was cold. The staff were also drinking cocktails, and the place was very messy.
I'd go back for breakfast/brunch but not in a hurry more
