    Over the years this has always been one of my favorite bbq spots. The nostalgia and flash backs of having the ribs and fries when I first came to US and that being my first "American" BBQ are still there. Had ribs and they were firm, perfectly seasoned fall off the bone tender. I like the red sauce the best and the fries were just perfect. Service was exceptional. Table next to me had a pie so I decided to follow suite and this being peach season that's what I ordered. Now am not sure how to feel about this pie.... The fruit was firm not mushy so it was from fresh peaches not canned but the taste was a bit like gelatin flavored so it was good just not what I expected but the crust and the whipping cream on top where delicious. 4.5 for food and service a 5.

    This place has perfected the art of pie! The pie you MUST order is the seasonal FRESH PEACH PIE!!!!! Lawdy lawd, goodness gracious! The whip is premium and the cross section is filled with FRESH, SWEET, DICED PEACHES! The crust is good too. Will be back to try the other selections!

    This place is becoming my favorite in Walnut Creek. All the servers are so personable and the food is incredible. Love that this is a family mom and pop shop. Quality of the food is always great, small touches like the house made pickled onions go a long way. What better Sunday than bottomless mimosas and a huge burger.

    I've been going here for 40 years. The food is always solid, portions are generous and the service friendly. Outstanding burgers, fries, sandwiches and pies!
