"What a pleasant surprise this was! The rub on the pork ribs has great flavor. It's not overpowering, it enhances the great flavor of the meat. I loved the pork ribs! The sausage was good, not dry, very moist. I didn't taste the brisket, so I cannot comment. The brisket beans, however, were very good . And the pickles!! I loved those pickles. Crisp and great flavor!; Everyone there was kind and friendly and I love the school style desk single seats along the wall. It's has that "neighborhood joint" feeling. And I like it We will go back-- those were tasty ribs worth eating again. :)"

"As soon as I walked in I was welcomed, being my first time in there I wasn't sure what to expect. Upon deciding what I wanted to order a staff member (I think he may have actually been the owner), made a recommendation that the loaded potatoes are good, and they are big, I did proceed with the potato with pulled pork and hot link on it. The customers there seemed almost like family with the staff, knew each other, asked how everything is going, etc. Every interaction I had with staff and even some other customers was positive. They asked my name for when my order was ready, and just a few minutes here it came. A loaded baked potato that justifies the saying "everything is bigger in Texas", and it was fantastic. In a lot of restaurants they do whatever they can to get your order in, to your table, and get you out the door as quick as possible. This place here, genuinely cared about my experience, all the way from the minute I walked in, until the moment I walked out. I highly recommend and from this point forward I know where I'm getting lunch when I'm in Greenville."

"New owners, I've seen this place on the way to my doctors in Dallas. They were located in Garland. I've always wanted to stop and try. They do have some great BBQ. The ribs are very delicious, and the chopped brisket is very tasty. Beans and coleslaw tasted very great as well. I do recommend stopping by and give them a try."
