Can be difficult to locate the entrance as it’s down an alley, but follow the smell of smoked pork and you’ll get there. We sit at the downstairs bar with Linzell. BBQ NACHOS, Greek salad, and ribs. This place is touristy, but for a good reason. Also, don’t take it personally if your waiter doesn’t seem warm and fuzzy- you’re there for the food!
