We had an excellent combination plate ( brisket, BBQ chicken, BBQ pork ribs, BBQ beef rib) and two sides.  There was more than enough for the two of us and we took some home in a takeout box. The service was fast, the wait staff were very friendly and helpful, the atmosphere was warm and cheerful.  The Boneheads who give this place bad reviews are just angry, unhappy people.

5 of us ate something different fish was over seasoned and over cooked. Rib eye was blandly seasoned, NY strip was under cooked on inside and over cooked on outside, chicken was dry, hamburger was burned. They have a tesla coil that scared our 3 1/2 yr old. Very over priced very over priced

This restaurant is now in Eureka behind the Bayshore Motel.  Ten of us went there Sunday night, 5/20/12 to celebrate our teenage son's birthday.  We called Saturday attempting to make a reservation for 5:00 pm and were told the soonest they could seat us was 5:45.  OK by us.  

While we are walked to the back and seated I noticed several empty tables and wondered why we couldn't have gotten a 5pm reservation but no biggie.

At the table was a large bowl of butter pats but no bread was ever served to us. We thought perhaps we missed it on the menu but when we were leaving we asked the front desk and got a flip 'Oh, we must have run out!'

Several of us ordered the St Louis pork ribs.  They were horrible, the meat was dryed out to almost jerky like consistancy and an overwhelming smoke flavor. The smoke flavoring was so overwhelming that I could still taste it the next morning when I was drinking my coffee.  One person ordered the cowboy burger, the meat had gristle in it and she could only eat less than half of it. One person wanted the salmon on the menu and was told 'We're all out!' No suggestion forthcoming about alternatives and there were only two fish options on the menu to begin with.

No wait staff ever came back to check on us or to take away empty plates.  In fact the wait staff all seemed to be teenagers with no training or interest in being quality waiters.

The final nail in the coffin of this review was at the end.  Two waiters came over with a small bowl of ice cream, topped with whipped cream and a candle for the birthday boy. They set it in front of him and sang happy birthday.  I asked for the dessert menu since there were other kids sitting there wanting some too.  Another flip response 'We're out of dessert'!  OMG  There is a large grocery store right across the street, why in the world didn't someone run across the street, buy some pound cake, berries and whip cream if they ran out of dessert at 6 pm?  In fact why not buy some salmon while you're at it??
