Really good bbq! We had the sampler with pulled pork, brisket, and sausage, and the massive brisket burrito! Definitely will eat here again when in Hot Springs! Owner and server were both very nice! You must try the brisket! P. S. We took home enough food for another meal! Definitely large portions.
Love this place! Me and my buddy stopped in here and we are from Pennsylvania. Definitely the best BBQ we have had since crossing the country.
Delicious BBQ! I got a BBQ pork sandwich with coleslaw on it, a generous side of fries, and a cup of sweet tea. The staff are friendly, and courteous. I will definitely be back.

Food is good except the catfish. Had a bad customer service and would normally steer clear of these types of customer service. However I will go back to try their brisket. Ask for silverware and napkins when first seated or you will have your food eith nothing to eat it with. Also check your receipt for accuracy
I had taken almost an hour or more to get our food. I had the pulled pork fried noodles 😒😣🤮 it was awful. Looked good, don't let it fool you. It tasted like vinegar.
