Delicious brisket sandwich, the bbq sauce had all the right flavors and the Mac and cheese was pretty good. Still, it's 5 stars all the way.I'm getting ribs next time... They looked so good.

My 2nd time to eat here. This time I brought the wife and daughter. Food was awesome. a little pricey though. $88 for 3 people to eat BBQ. We had to ask for table to be wiped down, which is no big deal. Big deal was man in booth behind us had a dog in booth with him. They left shortly after we were seated but I have a problem with animals indoors. Especially when its at an eating establishment. If it were a service dog I understand but this was clearly not the case. If animals are going to be allowed inside here, I will not be returning.

We arrived from Kentucky and were searching for a good BBQ. This place was outstanding!! A whole newly cooked brisket was sliced for our sandwich. So tender and flavorful!!! Sauces were good too. We preferred the sweet and smokey sauce. BBQ beans were lightly sweetened and smokey. Wonderful side dis for sandwich. Thank you!!

We stop here every time we're in nashville. My husband loves this spot. The brisket is usually dry and tough. This past visit I wanted to be honest when management came around. I told her how dry the brisket was. She remedied it by offering me different substitution. The pulled pork was fantastic. Their sweet n smoky sauce is bomb! Chicken was decent. Brisket is always too dry and overcooked 4me here. All staff were kind and I appreciate management attending to my complaint. The bathrooms are clean. Nice atmosphere, away from downtown. Private parking lot.

Pretty tasty. First time visit. Rib Pack is the way to go. Great deal drive tru is a nice set up

Simply amazing, the food there is almost beyond comprehension everything on the menu is awesome. Try the sausage if you want the best sausage in town. A great locally owned business (give the chains a break!)and although the prices have gone up because of inflation the price its well worth it the second this amazing food touches your mouth, go here! Its amazing!

Best BBQ I've had in Nashville. Friendly staff, clean location and AMAZING food!

The staff was very polite and friendly. As this was my first visit they explained everything very well. They recommendations were excellent. The food was extremely good and the portions well sized. I will definitely return again.

Overall, we weren’t impressed whatsoever. We placed our order online and we’re hopeful for large portions given our extremely high ticket price. We got a few choices of meats and 5 different sides.The meat…pulled pork was incredibly dry. Like was this left over from the weekend? The beef brisket… it came in a round container which concerned me..when I opened it, imagine pulled pot roast. Zero smoke flavor and dry beyond our preference. My wife was looking forward to good brisket only to be very disappointed. The smoked sausage, best thing we tried but small portioned for what we were charged.The sides…oh the sides. Why is everyone afraid of seasoning? Literally where is the salt and pepper at least? Mac and cheese, boxed flavor. Green beans, bland. Slaw, blah. Baked beans, tasted like beans with a bottle of bbq sauce squeezed into them. Brunswick stew was like eating leftover stew that someone tried to spice up with more bbq sauce.Will we be back? Maybe.Recommend to friends, no.Worth the price you pay, absolutely not.Being a Nashville native I expected better.

Stopped in on our way down to Alabama. Loved the food so much we made sure to stop back in on our way back home. Smoked Turkey and the Brisket we're both fantastic. Great food and service!
