I was genuinely surprised by the food. Worth a try. I enjoyed the brisket sandwich which was tender and not dry.

This restaurant is a marginal 4. I think my expectations coming into it were low, and it exceeded them but not by much. The food was good, my brisket was tender and flavorful. The fries were not that good. You got to choose two sides of barbecue sauce with your meal I went with the chipotle and hot. But I couldn't even really taste much of a significant difference in flavor between the two. If you come here for barbecue, you will get barbecue. The plates are a decent portion, although I think slightly overpriced for the overall quality. That being said, the service was good and the small town ambiance was nice. So it's a decent spot for lunch but don't expect to be blown away.

Stopped in for the first time last night and was really impressed. I tried the wings, pulled pork, slaw, cheese curds, and cornbread muffin. The wings, pork, and curds were excellent. The meet was moist, tender, and flavorful with a nice crispness to the wings. The curds where a great combo of crunchy breading and soft gooey cheese. The sauces I tried were good (hot bbq and peach). The muffin was just okay, though the honey on top was a nice touch. The beer selection was solid and included some nice local favorites. The ambiance reminded us of BBQ places we've been to in Nashville...perfect for a low-key BBQ joint. The overall meal was excellent and we look forward to going back. Oh, the service was also great...super friendly and quick! Give this place a try.

Ordered some burgers and they were pretty good. I would say the food was a 4/5 and your typical bar food. The atmosphere was ok. You could tell it is a revolving door with different ownership and the place is a bar with no identity.

This is the best BBQ place in my opinion in all of Champaign county. Forget Black Dog and Hickory River. Their meats are always juicy and flavorful and I love their array of bbq sauces. (My favorite is the raspberry bbq sauce) unpopular opinion: their smoked chicken is very good with ranch. I always get the cold slaw and tator tots for sides. For Thanksgiving this year we ordered their smoked Turkey and we were SO impressed! Super flavorful and moist. Why would we go back to making our own Turkey? I just wish they offer it throughout the year!
