The food was phenomenal. The portion size, for the price, was exceptional. I ordered a full rack of ribs that melted off the bone, no need for a knife. Lots of meat, took half of it home because of the size. It also came with home made Mac and cheese with real bacon bites, coleslaw and a very large garden salad. My wife ordered the quesedea, and it was a 12" tortilla, filled full of ground beef and had all the trimmings. It was way more than just one could eat. She started it was very good as well. The wait staff were extremely polite and you could feel the good vibes. It felt like everyone enjoyed being there. One place we will definitely be going back to.

First time visit, good chance it won't be the last. I had the Diablo Chicken Wrap. This definitely has some heat to it. So often menu items are advertised as spicy and are only mildly so. Not for this wrap - well done. The sweet potato fries are among the best I've had. Definitely right on par with the Original Roadhouse Grill, which I judge all other sweet potato fries by. My wife had the french dip and was definitely pleased with it. They were definitely not skimping on the meat. Our server seemed to be handling the whole place and was doing a great job of it. She was very friendly and seemed happy to be doing the job. This is quite contrary to the majority of servers these days.

Tried this place for the first time today, not impressed at all. The server was super slow, not very friendly, and didn't even refill my drink! The food was pretty bland, took forever to get to our table, and the place was not even busy! Won't be returning.

Excellent food, excellent service! We went Saturday for Happy Hour and first of all enjoyed the open atmosphere. The servers were beyond attentive and happy to answer questions. Extra kudos to the amazing bartender, Levi, for his recommendations. The Reuben sandwich here is exceptional, piled with generous amounts of perfectly cooked corned beef, yum! Drinks were spot on as well...highly recommend this place!
