    Service was great. Still, it’s loud in there between the music being load, and people trying to have a conversation over the music makes it louder.

    I booked this reservation more than a month in advance because I knew it was Stampede week. I even received reminders from OpenTable confirming my reservation, so I expected everything was good to go. When I showed up at my reservation time, I was told they couldn't seat us because of a private event. If they weren't going to honor my reservation, they should have let me know ahead of time so I could have booked somewhere else.

    Professional service (quick, friendly). Quality bbq meats, with good portions. Expansive menu. Indoor & outdoor spacious seating. Clean space. Homeless people wandering around the patio is a disgrace to the city (had visitors from outside the country, they were shocked). Not the restaurant’s fault, but it is their problem (for patio seating/getting to restaurant).
