Q-dog, nachos , burgers . Great bbq sauce and pulled pork . Outdoor seating , ample parking .

Chili varies a lot. The chili here was excellent. I enjoyed the half sandwich plus a bowl of chili . I also enjoyed the artistic decor of the restaurant .

Erin Santucci

If you get the stuffed potato (and you should!) don't worry about getting a salad or side, SOO much food and it's delicious on its own.

Karen Phillips

My standby is half a Rainbow Sandwich (3 slices bread layered with cucumber & cream cheese , pimento cheese , & chicken salad ) & a cup of Brunswick Stew . Perfect lunch .
