Food was amazing and we got their for happy hour, so appetizers were half price. Can get very busy, so plan accordingly. We sat (five of us) at a small table outside, so it was a bit cramped, but serviceable. We had various burgers and salad for our meals. Had chili as an appetizer, it was so good. Get it! The Buffalo cauliflower was really great- like chicken nuggets, get some veggies in the kids

Absolutely recommend this local gem! As soon as you enter that amazing dining spot you will be charmed with classy yet comfy atmosphere, wood and plants made this place feel very earthy. Our dining options were two different burgers with Mac and cheese, and smocked spaghetti squash, that was vegan (nice touch!). Squash were on a spicy side, so if you not a fun of burning mouth, find different option. Burgers were delicious, however, some manners of our party were not a big fund of tomato jam/made burgers too sweet. The best options that satisfied everybody were Mac and cheese and the cookie skillet, epic and most importantly, sharable dessert that we paired with decaf cup of coffee! Service was on a slower side, however our waitress Dakota made sure we feel welcomed and comfortable!

So good that we came back a second night in a row. No reservation and still got seated right away and it was a Friday night at that. Food was amazing and the staff were super friendly. Big thanks to Patrick and his staff for creating such an awesome vibe!

This is one of the best casual places that I have dined at in a very long time. The staff and management (Patrick) are friendly, the food is served hot and is seasoned well. The brisket mac n cheese, brisket fries and cornbread were so good that we ate here twice during our 3 day stay. When the staff is this happy and the food is this good, it speaks volumes about the workplace. Thank you for a great dining experience.

What an excellent find! Some of the best BBQ I've had. With a friend and we split the very sizable Grilled Romaine and the BBQ Sampler Trio. The place was full on a Thursday evening. Large outdoor patio. Spacious interior. Jake was our server and took very good care of us - ever attentive. I had never had grilled romaine. The texture and taste were great. Large, crispy croutons, a massive Parmesan crisp, and an anchovy vinaigrette dressing. I'm normally not an anchovy person, but these were not overpowering and were thoroughly blended in. Wonderful! But the meat is what will bring me back. The trio consisted of a half slab of baby back ribs, brisket, and pulled pork. As expected, the meat fell off the rib bones. But there was something about the flavor and sauce that was just too good. The tender brisket was easily cut with a fork, though a large steak knife was provided. Again, the taste was so good! The pulled pork was also tender and delicious, but needed some of the barbecue sauce to bring out the flavor. Two sides were included, and we chose the Elote Corn Quarters (one full ear, quartered) and the Beer Battered Onion Rings. The former having that wonderful cheese coating, competing with the ribs for which will make you lick your fingers more. The latter were large fresh rings with the perfect batter - not overly greasy. Parking is free and easy in the adjacent lot. And it's just 3 mi off the 101. So I will definitely hit this anytime I'm heading on a trip North.

Ambience = excellent Nice outdoor patio. Space heaters and umbrellas. Server very friendly and prompt Jasmin!!! Food = fantastic. We ordered the trio of ribs, pulled pork and brisket. With 2 sides. Absolutely enough for 2 or 3 people. Meats didn't require a knife. So smoky & tender. Highly recommend a meal here

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Service "10"!!! It was so warming and inviting!! Played great music as well!! It was one of those places that you felt like you belonged. Now, as for the food.... I cannot stop raving about it!! My wife and I ordered the shareable, (chicken wings and an order of the brisket fries), which was ABSOLUTELY KILLER!!! Flavors of the wings ( bbq and sweet chili) were out-freakin-standing!! As for the fries...they were layered with flavor after flavor. We couldn't stop eating them even though we were beyond full!! My youngest son ordered the brisket chili. He said OMG DAD, This is awesome!! My other son and his girlfriend ordered the chicken sandwich and the brisket platter with Elote bites. They both agreed it was some of the best BBQ they've had.....PERIOD!! Honestly I must agree with them. It was a bit pricey but oh so worth it!!! All I can say is "PLEEEEEEEEASE COME TO AZ AND SHOW THEM HOW IT'S DONE "?!?!? From my family to you and your staff, Thank you for a wonderful experience and some AMAZING BBQ. We'll see you next year!! The Martins
