Erica Ota: Mac n cheese, corn bread, pulled pork, brisket are great!
Lisa: Skip the pulled pork and the ribs, get those moist briskets! Also try the wolf turds, corn bread, and the mac n cheese!
_: Fatty beef brisket, chicken, BBQ ribs, Mac and cheese, and the corn bread are a must try for your first time. Pass on the pulled pork - too dry. Remember to use the sauces on the table!
Kevin Nathan: This place was amazing and had great food!! The jerk chicken was amazing along with the rice&beans, corn bread, and of course the key lime pie
cYeNz: Reasonably price and delicious Caribbean food! Had the jerk chicken and pork combo and a beef patty.. Wish I live nearby
Victor Escobedo: Oxtail and jerk chicken combo is delicious. My girlfriend had the salmon and was absolutely beside herself at how amazing it was.

Lexi Loveday: Cornbread, brownie, & beer. Hate to say it but skip the meat.
Chris Hanson: Be sure to come with an appetite - a BBQ plate comes with corn on the cob and a cornbread muffin, and ALSO a choice of two sides.
Gerald Lee: Generally, pretty good BBQ but the chicken and brisket has been dry from time to time. I like the different types of sauces, ribs, and corn bread.

Cat Gurinsky: Don't forget to get a side of corn bread with your meal! My favorite meal is their special of shredded pork over biscuits.
Chuck Coulson: One of the few places left in the Bay Area to get good New Orleans food! The BBQ shrimp are great! Grab a table outside, pick up one of the man craft beers on tap, and listen to some great live music!
