    Overpriced, no flavor bbq, tiny portions and crappy customer service.  The brisket tasted boiled.  The place was dead and I know why now.  Was hoping to find a new good Okc bbq place to go to.  Boy was I wrong!  The sauce can't save em! All other places in the city i have tried are way better.  Save yourself some time, money and frustration and keep on rolling right past this joint.  highly disappointed!  The diner next door that they own must save em from going out of business.

    I hate doing reviews like this. I so wanted to like this place., I really did.
    We stopped on the 4th of July, after going to a movie. Parking lot had 4 cars but they must have been employees because only one other couple we're inside eating.
    Food smelled good and we got prompt friendly service. However, that is all I can say that is positive. The prices do not justify the amount of food you get. Servings are very small. Coleslaw tasted like it came from the grocery store. Partner always gets sliced brisket and his came out chopped. He went ahead and ate it because he was hungry and I ask why he got chopped and he said I told them sliced. I ordered the smoked turkey and the slices were unbelievably thin.  I mean really thin. For the amount of food, they seem very over priced.
    Guess we will just continue to go to our usual BBQplace where we know what we are getting.

    Been passing this place for years. Was driving by this afternoon and decided to stop for a slab of ribs. Went in to order and noticed the ribs were a bit pricey, but not terrible ($22.00). So I ordered. They asked, Hot or mild sauce and I replied how about some of each? The cashier looked at me and said, you only get one, if want another it will cost you based on which size you would like, pointing to the wall beside her. 4 ozs foe $2.50 and going up to a pint for $6.99. I looked at Her quizzically, you want to charge me for two of these little containers? She said yes.
    I should have walked out then. Instead, I said just mix both in the one container (4 oz). When they finished I saw two containers and thought, "well they had second thoughts and gave me one of each". I paid my about $25.00 and headed home.
    Getting home I opened the box and everything looked good. I opened the "sauces" and guess what? They gave me "one" ounce in each of two containers! For a total of "two" ounces!
    Needless to say, I was incensed! But, I continued on to the ribs. Only to find they were as bad as the service. Dry, too long in the warmer. The fat was the texture of jelled plaque..totally inedible.
    So my 10-12 ribs ($25.00) is now in the garbage can and I'm not a happy diner!
    I should have known better after the first experience. I really don't like this kind of dining experience, especially since I'm home and it's 6-7 miles to return.
    The best thing I can do is to warn others who stumble on to this awful place!
