Crowded, noisy and fun. Definitely worth the 20 minute wait. Onion rings the size of a small car. Food all at the right temperature. Ribs so hot you could barely hold them. Cole slaw very cold. Original sauce is perfect. Ribs had a little chew to them- not mushy and falling off the bone. That's how I think ribs should be. Lamb ribs a little salty but worth trying. Two of four in party celebrating bdays, & they brought two of the brownies on the house. Would be 4.5 stars if I could.

We were two without reservations on a Wednesday night just getting into town, 20 minute wait (actually more like 10) but with a full bar and a bartender who did a fantastic Manhattan it was no problem at all. Tried the special - crown beef rib and pork burnt ends with baked beans (good) and cheesy corn bake (must get this!!!). Rib was out of this world! Pork was very tasty (maybe a tad dry). Desert was a carrot cake like nothing we have had before. Service is superb, they gave us the recipe for the cheesy corn
