When we got there some young lady had an attitude like it was an inconvenience we was there. Then I ordered my hamburger well done it was charcoal on the outside but pink on the inside. To me the portions was smaller from the last time we went there. It's an hour and half drive to get there. I would have paid more for bigger portions. The waitress we had did a good job. That's why we left her a good tip.

Food was terrible, brisket was tough couldn't cut it. Burnt ends were fatty. Ribs tough couldn't event get them off the bone. Worst food we have ever had. Waitress was terrible no refills on water. Never came back to see if everything was good. Bad attitude. Manager was just as bad. Bad attitute. They need to be trained in customer service.

I am sorry for this review. Being from Kansas City and having to choke this down was horrible. The brisket was tough, burnt ends were dry, the 3 St Louis ribs were meatless, also the Cheese curds had no cheese in them.. There were good things though, reservation service, fantastic service, tea, jalapeño sausage, sauces, and the corn muffin. Drive thru BBQ at higher end prices. Never again.

All the meat entrees were great. However, we all had the red skinned mashed potatoes and didn’t think the taste was as good as it usually us.
