Nice place, I’ve never ate here before but heard they had recently remodeled. Spacious restaurant with two out door seating areas, one is a screened in porch the other is a outdoor patio. Large rectangular bar in the center of the restaurant anchors the interior space.
We ordered the tots to start, they were good, 5 on a plate, I’d probably order 2 portions if it was more than two people. Potato cheese and bacon with a spicy ranch style side sauce. Can’t go wrong.
My daughter had Mac and Cheese with broccoli. She said it was ok, nothing special.
I ordered the brisket sandwich with fries. At best it was ok. The brisket was cooked well, not over cooked nor was it under cooked. It was lacking in smoke in my opinion and the dry rub wasn’t very good. Also, it was supposed to come on a pretzel bun but mine came with brioche. Presentation was bad, just my sandwich and fries on a huge white plate, not appealing to the eye at all. The sauces were not to my liking either. Sauce is hard, everyone has a favorite style and some places try to replicate all styles and fail miserably. They had two and both were “ehhh” ok.
The good: nice place with lots of outdoor seating, huge bar and convenient location.
The bad: The food isn’t “wow”, it’s not terrible but I needs to be better. If they could figure that out this place would pop.
I’ll give it another try, if nothing else have a few beers in the sun before winter.
