Ambiance

Pros:

  • "Good size place, however you feel a bit cozy when inside as they use the space wisely while still maintaining an open atmosphere."
  • "You can smell the hickory smoke coming down the road and when you walk through the front door, you're instantly transported to an authentic down south BBQ joint."

  • "Not the kind of space that invites lingering, but still wonderful."
