    Service was great! Food was average. Brisket was dry and sweet potato fries were very overdone, but all was edible. Prices are lower than expected, which was a bonus. Not in a rush to go back, but not the worst I’ve been at, either.

    Jennifer was personable. Sorry to hear about her younger brother ! The Calhoun’s trio was delicious ! Lemonade was one of the best I ever had. Love that there was sugar on the rim.

    We were seated outside and the female server was so slow. Spoon and fork were not provided initially. Waiting for food took 30 minutes or so. The dessert i have to asked to take it out but it took a long time (20 minutes) for her to come back. Overall, we wasted 2 hours at the restaurant just waiting. Next time; pls hire more waiters. The male server outside was fast serving the other table. Some of the umbrellas outside were also not working properly.

    Prime rib was great. Smoked chicken left a lot to be desired. Was rubbery like it had been heated in a microwave.

    All of our food was horrible. The burnt ends tasted like they were left over from a prior day, the shrimp was cold and sale, the wings were cold.
