Im from Memphis, we do BBQ. This was the worst BBQ Ive ever had. Not like this month or year. I literally mean the worst BBQ Ive ever eaten. I took a coworker here for lunch. I had ribs, pulled pork and beans. He had a pulled pork sandwich. We both had a few bites and tossed it. I couldnt even eat the beans. How do you screw up beans!? I forced myself to throw up the few bites I had because it was making my stomach hurt. I didnt even bother to finish my drink either. I have no idea how people are enjoying the food. Maybe they just had a bad day in the back when I went. Ill pass on eating there again.

Went there on monday 17th.ordered three ribs entre to go home.when i got home i was sooo disappointed.the 3 ribs looked like 3 bones that had been burnt and rubbed with bbq sauce.dry and barely no meat on them.i think the lady gave me some end pieces that were left over.For the price i could have went anywhere else but i wanted to give them a chance.needless to say im not going back.ill stick with the other places.now i want to be fair and say i havent tried their other meals so cant speak on them,but the ribs were a big let down.worst that i have had so far.sorry

Was in the area for work. Decided to stop here instead of my normal BBQ stop in auburn off 167. great service. The food is crap. Brisket: tasted like pot roast Ribs: Very fatty, good flavor if you find the parts with meat Chicken: Good tender moist Cornbread: dry, Absorbs all the moisture in your mouth. you have to sip water just to beable to chew/taste. Taste bland Coleslaw: Taste like a store bought premade type Beans: nothing special Sauce: good with the chicken. thats all. Overall If you want good service and subpar food by all means go here.

Best BBQ place we have ever eaten at! The atmosphere was clean, professional, and to top it off, the food was to die for! Our table of five was feed to the fullest and our bellies will not soon forget the mouth watering moist meats that over flowed with smokey seasoned flavor. The portions were so vast that we all have plenty for a midnight snack and lunch for tomorrow! Thank you, WartHogs! We will be back bringing others to experience what we did.

Best bbq in the area. Diverse menu. The pulled pork and brisket Reuben sandwiches are my go-to dishes. Ive only gone in for lunch so far. For some reason its counter service only yet the tables have menus on them. They do bring the food to you. Each time Ive visited it seems there is a different employee at the counter and they each seemed new. This hasnt caused any problems though. Facility is always clean and tidy.

This location is HORRIBLE compared to Fife. Very expressive Chicken Caeser (main dish) salad came with very small 5 chicken slices and mostly lettuce. Beef brisket was very dry, endedup not finishing it. Ordered split pea soup that came at the end of our meal an was way too salty and gross. Over all very bad experience including service. NEVER GOIN TO EAT THERE AGAIN. What a shame!

First time here. I ordered the western round up. It was delicious!! Enough for 2 people to share or for one very large appetite!! The meats were tender and succulant.. not too heavy on the smoke! The sides were tasty too. Compliments to the chef(s)!! The young lady that rang me up was very friendly. I will definitely be going here again.

Not very good. Dickeys is better and just about the same price.. My daughter didnt like all the stuffed animals all over.. We tried to like it but wont return.. BBQ sauce wasnt that tasteful.. My daughter had to put a lot of salt on everything just so she could eat it.. She had brisket Mac n chesse and mash potatoes.

You know a bbq place is legit when they have a hand washing station in the middle of the resturant and the lady at the front says "welcome home" when you walk in. Also the breakfast is really good and when I was there it was empty, unlike most places where you cant get a seat sunday mornings

Waited 20 minutes to be seated. I was alone there were plenty of wide open tables. Service was very slow. I also noticed that I was the only drinking from a to go cup. After an hour of waiting, a very bland plate of food was set in front of me. This place is piss poor. DO NOT EAT HERE!

Two stars because the wait staff was friendly smiling and helpful for the most part , unfortunately when I go to a barbecue joint i expect real food not frozen deep fried and thrown on a plate. Edwin explained what my problem was with the food they said Im sorry and have a good day bye

Expensive. If price was lower, Id rate higher. I ate lunch here with my wife, dropped $30 without drinks. Atmosphere is great, food tasted good, but not on par with cost. UPDATE- changed from 2 stars to 1 due to me being sick for two days after eating here. No bueno.

Good food, friendly staff! Came back a month later, still great food. I had the prime rib stroganoff and while it was good, I am not sure that I would choose it again. Meat was a little tough and overall it was just so-so. Also ate the beans

I was a bit disappointed in our meal. My baby back ribs, which are the most tender of the ribs, were really dry and over cooked. My biggest disappointment was the potato salad which was store bought. I was hoping for restaurant made.

Best BBQ Ive ever had it was great th ribs fell off the bone and were really tender and moist the BBQ sauce had to be homemade it was to die for. And the beans were the best Ive had in a long time I encourage you to go here

Driving from Seattle to Portland with a friend, and pulled off to get out of rush hour traffic. This was fun find: better-than-good BBQ (had the ribs and chicken combo), delicious sides, and a quirky, friendly atmosphere.

Very expensive. Called in my order to go, screwed it up twice while I was there. Get home to see they screwed up again. Fries were burnt, burger had 0 flavor, and the next day I get food poisoning. I wont be back

Good food and service. Meat was very tender. Beans where great and the BBQ sauce. Had the pulled pork and brisket it was worth it. Just wish the potato salad was home Made. oh and the honey Butter was on point.

First time here. Was craving some pork ribs so thats what I ordered unfortunately the half rack of ribs I got were mostly fat and the rub used on them was so overpowering. Everything just seemed super salty.

Trevor Johnson

Best mashed potatoes Ive had in a long time (mustve been that gravy!), and amazing bbq sauce. Had the turkey breast, which was surprisingly moist for turkey, too. 11/10 - will want to eat again.

Just got the family feast there and it was amazing everything was fresh they had it ready within 20min. Everyone there was really professional and had a smile would go back at anytime

Ordered 3 orders of the brisket to go, when I got home, I discovered the meat was mostly fat. Maybe we would have been served a better cut of the meat if we had dined in.
