We visit Texas quite often and always have ribs at well known BBQ's. Mike's ribs are as good as or better than anything we have had in Texas. I am a certified Memphis in May judge and also a KCBS...

Well I am from Texas I like my BBQ so 3 stars is good for them because it is the best Bbq you gone get around the parts. I really like their baked beans, catfish is pretty good for being up north.

Stopped here while in town for a sporting event and it was outstanding. Service, food, value all of it was great. Can't wait to get back next time I'm in town. Didn't know what to expect since it...
