The menu also includes sandwiches, fish, steaks and down-home Southern sides like succotash, corn pudding and fried okra. Two dozen microbrews are available on tap.

    WOW! Delicious BBQ and i ain't pullin' your leg (bone) haha Went there for the first time on 2/27/09 (it was at an after party for Frances Cardullo Gourmet Shop a Harvard Square Merchant) the wait staff were awesome (having been in the business i know good staff!) and the ribs were out of this world! the sides were yummy as well and in the future i'd like to try everything on the menu! Go here, You will not be disappointed!

    This place was hyped up a bit so i guess i was a bit disappointed of the meal i had. Meat was a bit dry and service was fine. I've had much better.
