Bar BQ


As many times as I have been there is as many times it has been different - in every way!

The meat platter combo with ribs, brisket, sausages and pulled pork was AMAZING the first time. The kid's Mac & Cheese was great and creamy. Beer was excellent and free flowing. Steve's Key Lime Pie (the best ever) was of course delicious. Service was friendly and fun.

The second time I went the ribs were dry, the Mac & Cheese seemed like it was left over from the last time I went, the beer ran out and service was unattentive and snippy. The only consistent piece was the key lime pie and that's outsourced!

I went again with friends and it was half and half. I was so pleased the first time so I keep going back to see if it was a fluke. I shall keep you informed.

I went here recently with my family (as usual) and I have to say that it was very expensive!!!  I didn't get anything insane nor even a bottle of wine but it was expensive!  The food was very good, the service was excellent.  The lovely part is being able to sit outside and my little ones could run around without disturbing other diners (which is what we all care about, right?).

Anyway, keep that in mind when planning.

Now, you can plan a cheaper evening there, I am sure.  There is Sundays where kids eat for free.  And Mondays where pizza is $6.00 at the bar or something like that, so it's possible to enjoy it but I am looking at as a night out and it was "trop cher".
