The Patio is what all fast food should be, pulled pork sandwich is a must get with sides that include garlic mashed potatoes and coleslaw. They also have a fast drive thru.

Love the cream of chicken and rice soup; chicken kebab, Monterrey chicken sandwich (the bacon and BBQ, make it memorable), and the BBQ baby back rib and chicken combo with fries, is a must!

Excellent rotisserie chicken, good soup too. Nice concept, order your food at the counter and then find a seat. They bring it to you.

So many choices on the menu. Took me a while to decide. The BBQ Pulled Pork was great. I need to go back and try other options.

Spaghetti sauce per noodle ratio is inadequate. Ask for extra sauce. Children are always present...it gets loud. Food is decently priced for the amount you get. Never had a bad meal here.

The BBQ pulled pork sandwich is delicious and paired with garlic mashed potatoes, Cole slaw, and corn bread - divine!

The BBQ chicken is awesome, but the ribs are not tender or fall off the bone. So if you want the taste of ribs, get the ribs. Otherwise, stick to the chicken!

The pulled pork sandwich is AWESOME...the fries are really good too...Great place to eat out with friends or family!!

I liked the tacos. I went with chicken. Make sure to get some napkins, because those tacos are FULL. A fork wouldn't be the worst idea, either.

The chicken kabobs are affordable and good! Usually, I eat the fries and save the kabobs for later!

The best place for BBQ... and the Pretzel Bacon Burger is amazing!

I recommend the rotisserie chicken—oreganato or BBQ—pulled pork, and brisket; it's all yummy! :-d

Good ribs. Good pulled pork. Good fries. Relaxed atmosphere.

The Chilli is too salty. The Mac’n Cheese is overcooked, you cannot taste any cheese at all. The Brisket was dry. Good smoke flavour BUT cannot taste the beef. Even choice grade brisket taste better
Brian VossMarch 8, 2013
Best ribs ever!! Best fries, food for everyone! Have to go eat here all the time

Chicken sandwiches and the patty melt are all great. Fries are mediocre. Rice pilaf is good but not very much flavor

Call ahead and order to save time. If you are taking it home you can pick it up in the drive through.

I'm not a fan of ribs and this is pretty much the only place I have them because they're so good ;)

The food is great. I recommend the patty melt or the chicken ranchero. And don't forget to order their awesome fries.
