The Best New Restaurants in Denver Right Now, Spring 2025 | Eater Denver

"Everything’s picture perfect at this Southern counter joint, right down to the mom-and-pop ownership and the country music playing in the background. The barbecue selection’s short but sweet — pulled pork, spare rib, hot links, Saturday-only brisket — while the crunchy, juicy, peppery fried chicken may be the item to beat, especially atop a buttery, crumbly biscuit with tangy pimento cheese and sweet-and-sour pickles. Even the sides and desserts, including porky, tender collard greens and apple fritters, are textbook examples of the genre." - Ruth Tobias
