Food: 
Delicious their brisket was so yummy and tender. I think the pork is good as well but the brisket is far superior! 2 BBQ sauce options. 
Hand cut fries are perfection. Once you pop you can't stop. The brisket chili was yummy! Also the Mexican rice, Mac and cheese, and amazing biscuits! We could return . 

Service: we came in while it was snowing.so they were very slow (easy parking though ! 😊) However our waitress did a LOT of sitting at a table visiting with other waitresses . I went most my meal without a drink. I kept looking at her she would look at me and turn back to her buddy. 

Parking: Typically this area is hopping and busy so parking could be more difficult. You would want to use the garage if needed and walk. This may not be too friendly for people in wheelchairs. 

Location: the location by the river was cute. The buildings/strip and how it was set up was very cool.

Decor: I think the decor was very cute!

Seeing these good reviews I wonder if they're referring to the same place that I just ate. The service was good as I was with a large group but the food was not good at all. I had ribs which were merely ok but the sides we're horrible. Especially the "potato salad" was burnt up hard chunks of roasted potatoes. Couldn't chew it was so hard and just tasted black. I sent it back in trade for slaw which was not good either. Others at my table got burnt cold fries and Mac and cheese that was no different than boxed shells and cheese that was mushy over cooked and dry. The biscuit with meal was hard and dry also. The key lime pie was good..if it weren't for getting that I would of ate nothing. Overall very disappointed with a much anticipated experience. There's alot better BBQ to be had elsewhere.

Holy surprised the crud out of me! We have tried twice to get in on a short notice weekend night and were met with a long wait. We ended up drinking at Martini's next door and waiting this time. The brisket sandwich and bacon potatoe salad were some of the best I've ever had! Take my advice and wait for a table, you won't regret it!

Amazing BBQ restaurant in downtown Peoria. This place has a pretty extensive and interesting menu and the portions are huge. The ribs and the pulled pork are really good. There were so many other things I wanted to try. The bar is fully stocked and the location is great. I'd recommend going here before a concert or Rivermen game or even with a group.
