  This place has gone a bit downhill.  The bartender was more interested in talking to guys then refilling drinks.  My wrap had less filling than normal.  A shame since it used to be so good.

  An okay place. Tons of people in the 22-30 age group (most are waiters and waitresses from local places). They have an outside bar where smoking is allowed (cigars are tolerated with dirty looks). There's no single malt scotch at the bar (not even Glenlivet or Glenfiddich) which is a bit disappointing. The service is hit or miss. The food is okay, but the prices are good.

  Started off with the chicken wings which were extremely dry. Followed up with spare ribs and the brisket...nothing to write home about.....BUT I will write to Yelp about it...
  Times are tough, but not as tough as these ribs! Also, the brisket kinda reminded us of Arby's. Our waiter, who was especially sweet, tried boxing up our leftovers, but def got a workout in while he tried to pack them up. He couldn't pull, rip, tear or stuff our ribs into the box. He finally went and got a big knife to cut them to fit in the box. It was hilarious! We had a good time, in spite of the terrible food, but we won't be returning to dine. Drink specials are great....might help ya choke down the food.

  Going to finish the review after I get the check and see if they discounted for all the mistakes.  There were many.
  
  They did not fix.  I've spent way too much time in Florida already, don't want to waste more time reviewing this terrible restaurant in Florida.
  
  Everything is disappointing, only redeemable quality was that the waiter apologized almost enough to account for the smell of smoke (cigarette smoke), not having ribs available, slow kitchen, and fast food quality food.

  OK Barbeque for a reasonable price.  The ribs, chicken  and BBQ sandwiches are all decent.  The side dishes are adequate but nothing special.  Very good service.
  
  The wines are terrible and vastly overpriced so skip them and have a Stella Artois on tap.  It's a shame because a good inexpensive Zinfandel or Shiraz goes great with BBQ.
