    Kaitlyn was our server ! She was super knowledgeable, cooked our meat to perfection while also serving the rest of her section. Best service staff I’ve had in a long time. All over KBBQ restaurants cannot compare to this place. My husband and I will definitely be coming back . Not only is the meat top quality all the sides complement the meal perfectly. Bonus points the hostess Brianna was super kind and very welcoming even on a busy 3 day weekend.

    The food was really good. The service, however, was the shining star of the evening. We had eaten here 15 years ago for a rehearsal dinner for friends. I made the reservation for our valentine's dinner with the same couple that were married 15 years. And I didn't know that this same restaurant was where we were 15 years ago! When I notified the other couple, they were amazed with my memory. But no memory, it was just luck - or divine guidance! We arrived and were seated promptly. Dinner was delicious. But the star of the show was our server, Belen (or maybe spelled 'Belyn' or 'Belin'. Regardless, she took absolute total control, was spot-on with deliverables and requests, and allowed us to have a terrific evening. Flying in from Atlanta for the dinner at this same spot from 15 years ago? Nothing made the night better.

    Celebrated my bday with a group of friends & family here. The food was delicious! We had wagu tri tip, picana, and brisket. And my favorites, lamb rack and burnt ends. Smoke meats are served with curtidos in the side which is perfect to accompany the decadent cuts. Octopus and Mac & cheese also very yummy. Service, drinks, ambience and music on point.

    We went there for lunch with some friends. The food was very good and the server was excellent. She was very accommodating. We got there during rush hour so the noise level was a bit loud. After the rush-hour, the noise level was much better. We will go there again
