    Came here on a Sunday for lunch and I have nothing bad to say about the service. The food however was fairly mediocre. The brisket was tough and the burnt ends were just ok. This was my first time there and I'm not sure I'm at all tempted to go back.

    Clueless hostess, no Heat, serving patron liquor across from us that was clearly drunk, confusing menu and pricing. We did not feel comfortable in dining area , went to hostess desk to complain and say we were leaving, nobody there. Also parking lot was very dark.

    Food was okay. Service was very slow as they only had one waiter, who was also the bartender, and had two people bringing out food. Took a very long time to get waited on, then for the food to come out, and waited again to get another drink. I felt bad for the waiter, as he was running around like crazy, while the other help could have taken drink orders awhile as he was making bar drinks and taking orders. He was doing the best he could, so I did give him a good tip.
