I had the pulled pork, mac and cheese, green beans and fried zucchini. Everything was perfect and the fried zucchini actually brought back memories of my grandmother cooking. Which is a very good thing.

Typical Meat and 3 style restaurant with VERY friendly and helpful staff. Had 17 month old twins with us and the servers helped with high chairs, brought us our silverware, and even entertained them throughout. Food was excellent and fresh!! We'll be back!!
