Extremely disappointed with the service during our recent visit. We waited over 45 minutes just to receive our drinks, and despite multiple attempts to get a server's attention, we were unable to place a food order for nearly an hour and a half. The delay was so bad that a few of our guests actually had to leave before we could even order dinner. This was supposed to be a nice evening out with friends, but the incredibly slow and unorganized service completely ruined the experience. There was no apology, no urgency, and no attempt to make things right. I understand places get busy, but this was unacceptable. Definitely will not be returning or recommending this place to anyone.

Delicious and fun restaurant! We had a great experience. The servers were all so nice. The food was really great. The fancy bourbon selection was amazing. And the axe throwing activity was so cool. The man who tends to it is very helpful to teach people how to throw an axe.

Hi. We came on a weekday night and sat in the outdoor patio. Service was slow and inattentive, almost like nobody was assigned the table. It took almost an hour to get our food from when we were seated and they were not busy. Food was good, but not excellent. We had the burnt ends and were very disappointed. Drinks were good!

We sat outside and it was great. I love the decor. The service was wonderful. They were helpful and very friendly. The food was delicious. I really like the Mac and cheese side. The house bbq sauces are super delicious.

Horrible experience! Ran out of tri-tip at 2:30pm on Father’s Day, service was awful, food is overpriced for what you get. We won’t be back!

Tasty food. Lots of BBQ choices. Pleasant and helpful staff. Chicken very dry. Brisket good, but fatty. Ribs difficult to cut with utensils supplied. Instead, my dinner guest used his Swiss Army knife. Wait staff quickly brought us steak knives when we thought to ask for them. Other food items good. We'll likely return

Hi Barry, I am happy to hear that you enjoyed the brisket, service, and other food items. Our goal is to provide hot juicy meats on every order and it sounds like we missed the mark on your chicken. We appreciate the feedback and will use it to grow and improve. We hope to see you again!

They were able to seat us earlier than our reservation which was great. Took a bit of time to get the server to take our drink order and getting our drinks took even longer. We were waiting on the rest of our party but it seemed the server disappeared all together. Placed our order and it took a bit of time which is expected given we were a large party, but not refills were offered, not even water nor was there in any check in to make sure everything was good. Once the plates were cleared, our checks were given and we were all but swept out the door. It wasn’t terrible but just kind of odd.

Horrible! We had reservations and will never go again. No exaggeration….It took nearly an hour to get 2 drinks and an app. it took 1.5 hours to get main courses. In nearly 2 hours we could only get 2 cocktail drinks (one each) because the “bar was so busy and backed up”. The same excuse was used for the delay of the main courses, but upon arrival the meat came out barely luke warm. It was not just our table, as everyone around us was having the same problems. Several tables got up and left. Server was nice, and not her fault, but management should be ashamed (and probably replaced).
