Shared the Fat Cow and wasn't disappointed but wasn't surprised. Meat was solid and sauce was decent. Interesting beer selection for how limited it is and a great list of whiskey flights. Sides were mostly good with a couple of exceptions (bland mac and cheese and meh baked beans). If I go again I'd opt for a sandwich and broccoli or potato salad over one of the packages. The dessert options sounded good but I was too full to try any of them by the end of the meal.

The food was excellent. I absolutely loved the beef brisket. It was so delicious. My drink was also very good.

My party of 4 got the Heavy Cow package which was perfect! The meat was perfectly seasoned and I love that it's not smothered in sauce and you can choose your own style of bbq sauce to use. Their veggie sides (slaw, collards, broccoli salad) were light and refreshing, which complimented the brisket and short rib well. Their mac and cheese isn't my favorite though. It was heavy on whatever funky cheese they use and I prefer baked over stove top. The baked beans were a bit too sweet for my taste as well, but still yummy. Service was quick and friendly. I can't wait to go back!

Went here about a week ago and the food wasn't too bad so I decided to go back and was pretty disappointed paying 60 bucks for what I got. Baked beans taste like Walmart canned beans with the restaurants meat mixed into it. Mac and cheese is tasteless, The large and small Mac and cheese are essentially the same size serving. The trays are slightly different in size for 2 dollars extra. Brisket was pretty dry. Boneless ribs were okay but a little on the tasteless side.

Superb bbq, friendly staff members, clean and nice industrial vibe. You order/pay at the bar area, they will give you a table number sign and bring the food to you when ready. Mac and cheese was sooooo good.

Food is good. Eating there's is annoying. Eating in you still eat out of cardboard so might as well order as takeout. Ready to move because it is counter-service prepared to get up and down during your meal every time you need something. Go get your own forks and such as well .bills are not itemized so if you are splitting you'll have no idea how much your own stuff cost.

This place is awesome. Inside is very cozy and warm, the atmosphere is very nice, and the food is amazing. They have a counter style ordering setup where you stand in line, order from a small number of items, and sit down with a table number. The food was to die for, and recommend any one that eats beef to try it here. There are sauces at the table as well in case you want to increase the spice factor.

Excellent customer service! I called because I was concerned about my friends onion allergy and the manager quickly and pleasantly answered every question I had. Staff was polite as well and the food is amazing never disappoints! Have not dined in yet at this establishment but I will soon!

Let me start by saying the decor and the set up this restaurant is very nice. But when it comes to the food, it was hard for me to find something I really liked. We got the family dinner, which came with almost 1 of everything on there menu. The meats had no real flavor, the brisket was very fatty. Most of the sides was served cold. And they all have a tangy taste from the collard greens to the potato salad, maybe it the vinger. The drinks was pretty good, but we had to keep changing our drink since they did not have the right liquor to mix together. The bartenders both black gentlemen was not friendly or inviting at all, we all know how to smile through our MASK. They just keep telling us we don’t have the stuff to make that drink. The hostess he was friendly inviting and gave us details and answered all of our questions, this was our first time there.

nice place, great feel, and really enjoyed the food. split the fat cow with another person and it came with a nice mix of sides. short ribs where my favorite.
