    You haven't lived until you've had ribs here. Seriously spectacular. Best I've ever eaten. Roasted over an open pit, with the most amazing tangy BBQ sauce ever.

    Now, if you're a white suburbanite like me, you'll probably be terrified stepping out of the car in this neighborhood. Perhaps with reason. But everyone was very nice, and you'll calm down while you wait. It's well worth it. Get the full slab of BBQ ribs. It comes with a side of fries, just under $25. Take the fries, or baked beans, or leave them. But you'll be back for more ribs.

    I've talked with the owner and seen the back off hours. He's meticulous about everything being spotless. I stop by whenever I pass by in the evening. Of course, it's carry out only.

    Came here for the first time and it was my last I was excited I thought the sauce would taste like Parks Old Style BBQ or Young's BBQ BUT NOT AT ALL
    The service was fine , I ordered rib tips and fries
    The rib tips were very tough and barely had any meat on them , and the sauce was the worst the ketchup bbq sauce did not sit right with me it was a
    Waste of travel time and money

    This place sure has changed,  this long time favorite has fallen off. Im guessing its run by the new generation and it shows, bad quality ribs now, no-one awnsers the phone or its closed for no reasons. Last time i went at aroud 6pm they had no ribs. smh. Its sad when the a legacy  is built only to be torn down by the kids/family of original owners.

    So I decided to get ribs here on the 4th of July. It was of course insanely busy. I ordered a half of slab with fries. So to start they are not stingy. I had a true to size half slab with tons of sauce and fries. The ribs were great, tender and meaty. Best of all fresh and smoked. The only reason I didn't give it more stars was the sauce and service. The bbq sauce was a little tart and bland. The staff were just a little unprofessional and rude.

    I have been a long time customer at this restaurant for years.  I have never received fries this dry and hard from them.  I believe the fries had been sitting got cold and put back in the grease to reheat them. We could not eat the fries with the ribs.
