I have to give this place 4.5 stars out of 5 because this place was absolutely wonderful! Good food and great service.
Everything from the decor (It looks like a truck-stop garage blend with the giant tires made into the counter and actual tailgates for the backs of benches) to the food (if you never have fried green tomatoes anywhere in the New River valley EAT.THEM.HERE.)
My husband and I ordered a side of fried squash and a side of the fried green tomatoes to share as an appetizer. That was the best decision ever. Both were amazing. They were fried and seasoned to perfection! They needed no salt, they needed no sauce...just needed the quickest way possible into my mouth!
My main course was the half rack of St. Louis Style ribs and a side of collard greens. I wasn’t wowed by the greens (they tasted like they were cooked with vinegar in the pot and that isn't my thing but for others it may be awesome) and it came with 3 hush puppies (those things were golden balls of yumminess). The hunk of rib meat that came out as my meal was the size of my head... seriously, this thing was huge. The flavor was really good but it could have been more tender in my opinion because I don't like to have to take a knife to my ribs I just like to bite into them and have them all but fall off the bone. Also, upon eating the rest later because there was no way I could eat it all in one sitting, I ran into more of that toughness and a lot of gristle and fat and not much meat left considering the size of it...I was a little disappointed in that but I'd order it again (I am guessing that this was a fluke because meat cuts can be odd like that). Anywho, I had everyone in my office wanting BBQ thanks to me heating that up in the microwave for lunch.
I can easily see myself working my way through the menu at this place.
Also, do yourself a favor and try the beer they have on tap... you will not be disappointed.
