“ I drive by this place frequently when I come back to northeast ohio from steubenville and tonight I decided to go in and get some takeout and I picked up the pulled pork and the smoked chicken wings. On. A 1 to 10 scale. I will give the pulled pork an 8. And I will give their barbecue sauce at 10. But their smoke chicken wings were beyond belief and definitely, the best wings I have ever had in my life, and the staff was fantastic and very friendly and polite. ”

“ The girls were friendly and helpful. Nothing fancy to look at. The pulled pork, fries and hush puppies were tasty. They have in-store sit down dining. TV to watch. I'll visit again and try other options. ”
“ I love Texas Barbecue, and this really took me there. Love everything we had (smoked wings, pulled pork, fries). It was so good we went back the next day. ”
“ My son took me to lunch for Mother's Day..they weren't open on Sunday or Monday so we ended up there Tuesday. My toddler loved her kids meal and she is picky. The fries remind me of fair fries which are a favorite for us. My son and I both got the Burrito. This thing was huge and so good. Service was quick and the girls were so nice. I also got the apple crisp but was so full I saved it for later and it was delicious. Definitely recommend stopping in and trying them out if you haven't yet. ”
