Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? No - food court setting lacks ambiance and it's too casual. Save it for established relationships who appreciate good cheap eats.
Can I get a table without a reservation? No reservations - it's counter service. Finding seating in the food court can be challenging during weekend mall rush.
Is it kid-friendly? Perfect for families - food court setting means kids can be loud, high chairs available, and the mild BBQ sauce works for young palates.
Best For
Better for: Unbeatable value - you're getting $25 BBQ restaurant quality for $12 mall prices
