I eat in this restaurant often! This is the best place to pass a nice evening. I go to this spot regularly. The meals are excellent, the staff is professional and the prices are decent. I enjoy being in this place for a decent meal.

Been there a few times. We went last Friday to eat BBQ. I ended up purchasing the catfish buffet, and was I glad I did! Catfish was awesomely crispy and the shrimp was good. My kids LOVE the mac and cheese as well as green bean sides. I did too. I also enjoyed the fried okra and rice. To end the meal, we bought a couple of mini pies. I went for the apple, which was pretty good, standard apple pie, while my husband chose the chocolate pecan. The pecan was sooo good. I usually don't eat pecan pie, but this one was exemplary. We went back this Friday for the buffet again. If I had to say something negative, the soda machine's ice has to be filled manually, and every time I've been here I need to wait to get an icy soda.

Good food served in an atmosphere full of southern charm, whether you choose to dine inside or outside. The staff is all wonderful but Mr. Spencer takes the cake. He is so friendly and makes you feel welcome.

Best BBQ around. The green beans are to die for!
Andrea Ruz
Amazing place, with lots of room, and lots of different options to eat, from fish, to meat, and a great buffet. Great for kids too, since they have balls, and places for them to play.

This place has some dang good BBQ. The portions are generous and the staffs very polite. If BBQ isn't your thing, they have some sort of special every night. I sometimes find myself coming here multiple times a week.

The best BBQ in this area hands down! This place is perfect for families young and old or even if you're by yourself. The people working here are always great and so nice. Great food variety so everyone should be able to find something they like. Love this place!
Brian Stephens
The food is really good here, the only complaint I have is that the some of the buffet items were not stocked in a timely manner. And everyone was waiting (for the fried chicken strips). As soon as it was up, everyone jumped up, there was a long line for them, by the time I got there, they were gon again.
Leroy Hughes

When I saw the reviews I was pretty excited. I wanted the baby back ribs but they don't have baby back ribs they have what's called St Louis ribs. They were not very good. They were dry. As long as I put enough barbecue sauce on them they were okay. But I expect barbecue to be super soft and moist. I had the coleslaw it was pretty good and I had one fried pie. That was good.
Melynda Knight
Really delicious BBQ. Great service. Friendly environment.
Rhonda Lucas
My favorite local bbq. Great place to take the family, eat, and hang out.
Gene Sousa
Great BBQ! Just finished the two meat plate. Brisket and Jalepeno sausage. Awesome!
Brad Rutkowski
Incredibly large portions with a wide variety of great sides. We came here with our very picky 6 year old & after trying a bite of the brisket, he said it was the best lunch he’d ever had in his life! Sure, he isn’t Gordon Ramsay as his main diet is hot dogs, mac-n-cheese, burgers & fries, etc. but we will definitely be coming back.

Jeffrey Camp
Amazing food and atmoshpere! Great fish and Mexican buffets on the weekend. Good prices and b.y.o.b. Love smoke monkey.
Martha Gonzalez
I would go back! It's a good place to bring the family. The bbq is ok, the ribs are the best. The Mexican buffet is also good! Just make sure you are ready to sit in the heat. The AC is not that great and the outside is serviced with fans. The ambiance is great... i would imagine it's really awesome to eat here in the fall.
Weldon Miller
Just had the Ribeye Chicken Fried Steak....Bring a Empty Stomach...Steak is Huge and Tender, get the mashed potatoes & gravy. The meal is Amazing..Staff is super friendly. Always a great place to go for dinner. Barbecue is Awesome as well. Some the best brisket in Dallas.

Very cool BBq spot. Live music venue. Delicious brisket. Generous portions. Cream corn and green beans were also pretty amazing. I'd love to come back for all you can eat fish!

First time for us to go here. The place is so unique and very fun. The food could not have been better. Came here for a birthday party! Service was very very good. Good place for families and children. Dress comfortable and let the kids play on the wonderful playground!

Love this little hole in the wall joint. The food was smoking good 👌 great prices and nice people. Can't wait till it gets warmer to sit out side and eat.

This place is pretty good. We like to go for the Wednesday night Mexican/barbecue buffet. It’s a little expensive. But you get a ton of choices and it’s all you can eat.

Get the Brisket Smashed Potato. You will not regret it, nor will you be hungry.
James Nunez
Yesterday was our first time we came to that excellent restaurant. But It is absolutely not the last time. We had a good time with the generous service, with the fine cuisine and fine drinks and with the friendly cost. We will absolutely go back there again.
Dan Ford
I was treated and dined like a king at this fine establishment. The jalapeno sausage, ribs, cornbread, beans, and even the homemade chicken-&-dumplings from the daily special, which I couldn't pass up, were all top-shelf. They have a generous selection of side dishes and hearty assortment of cold beverages. Treat yourself!
raymond scott
