The chopped Brisket was dripping juicy served with amazing garlic bread roll & mild potato salad made with the skins for the nutrition 😋

The food was great, but what stood out to me was the great customer service. The nice, young lady that rang us up was very helpful. As we were not from the area and just driving through, I asked for recommendations and the recommendations were great. While we were paying, a customer had accidentally dropped a large bottle of sauce all over the floor and tables. The young lady kept her composure and told the customer that she'll take care of it. Love it.

Ordered the small brisket sandwich. It was absolutely delicious! The pulled pork dinner was also very tasty. Staff was very friendly and service was quick. Dining room was clean.

DON’t GET THE HOBO SANDWHICH!!! Just got one and it was a disappointment coming from this place. I’ve had there other sandwiches and they’re good. But this sandwich the Tritip had too much fat and it was rubbery. No wonder they call it a hobo sandwich, only a hobo would eat it. It’s like meat that is no good they throw it in this sandwich.

Nice place to have a meal. Decent seating for small groups. The tri tip and pasta salad were delicious. The beans were described as having small tri tip pieces and spicy, but none were found (just spicy pinto beans). Bread was a little too toasty, but eatable. Overall the food was good, but a little pricey for the portions given.
Reception from the clerk was less than enthusiastic, but okay. Clerk needs to improve on customer service.

This place is amazing. Best old-school BBQ I've had in CA. The spicy beans are out of this world. Pulled pork, wet ribs, sauces, everything just top notch. Watch out, the coleslaw is a little spicy (but also delicious!)
