One reviewer who went to the place less than a week ago had high praise, saying: "If you like ribs, this is the place to go! They melt in your mouth, smoked everyday and come with coleslaw and baked beans! They have spare ribs, baby back ribs, pulled pork sandwiches, beef brisket, and wings! They also have Catfish, perch, and cod! A great place to visit if you are in Waukesha. A must stop by!"
