Amazing place with such a wonderful and great service. The food quality is excellent and Alexandra took care of us with top-tier hospitality service. We felt more than satisfied with the service and the food. Keep up the good work and promote Alexandra, she is awesome.

First time there. Service was quick and friendly. The pimento and cheese was sharp. Didn’t overly enjoy the bread that came with it but was just a personal preference. Everything is a La cart. The sides are large enough for two people to easily share. I got the 1/4 turkey, hush puppies, green beans and corn. And my husband got the brisket and sausage. We had enough to take home for dinner. Drew was our waiter and very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a bit cold so maybe bring a sweater but would definitely eat there again.

I wish I could give this place more stars! I am depressed knowing that this place exists in North Carolina and not in my home state, Arizona. Everything from the food to the service was exceptional. My favorite part of the experience was how attentive the manager was. He brought us our check and when he found out it was my birthday. Soon, he gave me some free banana bread pudding. I legitimately cried tears of joy while trying it. By far the best barbecue experience I've ever had in my life and I don't think it will ever be topped.

I'll be back! Great brisket sandwich-- I added the lettuce and tomato; I just wish I'd gotten more meat. Greens and the Mac and cheese did not disappoint! Great recommendations from David the bartender who also provided great service! Thanks so much and I look forward to coming back!

A no frills Carolina BBQ spot. Great tasting food and complements well with the sauces. Perfectly made drink by the bartender. The smoker turkey was delicious. And don't forget to get the heath banana pudding, you won't regret it. The best banana pudding hands down!

Good vibes in the outdoor patio, it was a bit busy for a Tuesday night. The fried broccoli was amazing, light and crispy - went well with the sauces. The brisket and the ribs were good, but on the drier side and not as juicy as I'd hoped but they tasted great with the sauces. The soccatash was surprisingly excellent and the beers were refreshing. The hand pie was lemon meringue which was satisfying and not overly sweet but fluffy and light.

What a great spot. First, the idea to turn a garage into a BBQ joint is just visionary. The service was outstanding (ask for Lauren). She was knowledgeable about everything on the menu and the beer menu.

The brisket had the deep smoke ring. The pulled pork had a great smokey flavor with the bite of pepper from the rub. This location is also built for volume. Don't be afraid to stop by if busy.

All of their sauces are tomato based, even the vinegar sauce. If you have a tomato allergy, just be cautious.

Oh, and the on-site brewery is awesome with a huge selection of beers.

One of the better BBQ restaurants in the area! Service was friendly and helpful. Outdoor seating was comfortable with music in the background. The succotash side was a perfect pair to the meats. I would get it every time! Pork was delicious as was the smoked turkey which was very tender and juicy, NOT dry. Husband loved the brisket above all else. The smoked trout appetizer was good but I'd skip it next time to enjoy more of the main BBQ.
