    Try the Gumbo- a very hardy soup with huge pieces of chicken, lots of shrimp, okra & a spicy, thick sauce. Plus, it comes with a chunk of delicious corn bread on the side!

    Gone with the wings was an excellent choice... with a side of mashed potatoes. Had a lonely blonde beer...super good. Great desserts definitely for sharing!

    The food is always awesome... The specials are great... But I feel like I ALWAYS get janky service. I dunno, they could just be racist... *shrug*

    New menus have a lot of old favorites, plus a few new things like a new veggie sandwich (they still have one of the best veggie burgers in town). Oh, and the BBQ is still great! Read more

    They changed their Happy Hour menu...No more pita bread with the artichoke dip...no more lettuce,tomato and bar b cue sauce on the bacon cheeseburger! Everything still tastes good. Gumbo is GREAT!

    Jen rocks as a waitress my foot. If you see her, run; she's the one with the horrific attitude & stank face. Walks off before you finish a sentence, had to go directly to the bar to order my drinks.

    Might be best known for the ribs, and rightfully so. But, the Black and Bleu Burger is killer.

    The wings and rib tips are great, not to mention great selection of beer and other food types!

    Try not to let the owners take over your favorite restaurant. They'll take away everything good and run it into the ground.

    If you want beef ribs, don't come here. They ain't got 'em! Market BBQ is where it's at

    The capers and all-spice are nice touches to the Bloody. Not too spicy or salty. No pickle? A little weird.

    When you get a Bloody Mary, spit the capers out with the straw. Spit them at nerds.

    The worst service ever. Made us change tables 4 times. Took 20 minutes for a to get service. To top it off he hit me on the head with a coffee thermos while I was taking a bite of my sandwich.
