Hands down best BBQ in Vancouver. We got the platter which was more than enough for 4, with left overs! Homemade BBQ and hot sauce were so good. Sources everything locally. Cocktails were great too! Highly recommend for a group so you can try as much as possible on the menu. I will be back and I will be bringing friends and family!

Best western BBQ I’ve had in the city. The atmosphere is quaint but very cozy and the owner makes everything himself. We splurged on the full platter as a group of 3 to give everything a try and everything went beyond what I could’ve ever imagined: the ribs are so tender and fall perfectly off the bone, the brisket and chicken are both incredibly juicy, and the pulled pork is just perfectly flavourful (and not too dry!) All sauces really elevated each every single dish, would absolutely come again. Notes: reservation required, call or email. Orders could take some time since everything is made immediately to-order. Great meat takes time and man is it worth it. Thank you Marc for such a terrific experience!

Went here last night with a reservation (no walk ins so be sure to make one!) - we were excited to try it and it did not disappoint. We ordered the platter and it was huge and delicious!! Brisket, chicken, ribs, pulled pork, corn, coleslaw, potato salad, and beans - was an absolute feast and with great cocktails as well. Ribs and potato salad were my two faves. The owner is friendly, kind, and making it all happen - and the food was very reasonably priced. Hard to get in this city. 10/10 recommend! I love finding new spots and Vancouver doesn’t have a lot of bbq - go check this spot out!!

I have been following this place for a long time and finally made it to Vancouver to test it out Ribs were amazing best I have had in awhile, pulled pork brisket and chicken also top notch. Huge servings of sides Left super full and happy I'll be back anytime I'm in Vancouver!

This is a haven for anyone who appreciates exceptional service, mouthwatering BBQ, and a fine whisky selection. The heart and soul of this establishment is Marc, an owner and a host whose passion for his craft is evident in every detail. From using only locally sourced ingredients to preparing everything from scratch, his dedication shines through. My highlight was their whiskey collection, the most extensive and impressive assortment of local spirits I've ever encountered in Vancouver. I was even able to savor an American bourbon that I had longed to try in Canada. While some might find the reservation-only policy and specific schedule a bit restrictive, I found that a quick visit to their website provided all the necessary details for planning my visit. It's a simple step to ensure you get to enjoy what this place has to offer. Once you're there, it's all about indulging in delicious food, savoring fantastic drinks, and experiencing a level of personalized service that's rare to find. For those in Vancouver looking for an intimate and exceptional culinary experience, this is the spot you won't want to miss.

Legit BBQ spot. RESERVATION NEEDED. We didn't have reservations but the owner was kind enough to service us (it was perfect timing before the reserved guests). Everything is delicious. In house BBQ sauce is SO BOMB. We tried the platter so we get to try everything. This thing can make 5 men full (4 if y'all got heavy duty gut). Loved all the meat. Chicken was done really well. Sides like baked beans and mac and cheese are freshly made. For Chicken Gravy, it's a bit different than gravies I'm used to. Ask the chef owner if you want to know more about the gravy. Service was great but not the fastest (mine was over 20mins) I wasn't planned on drinking but they have quite a few options to pair with this feast.

I’ve been once for lunch, I had the pulled pork sandwich and potato salad. It was delicious! I’m from the southern US and can be quite picky about barbecue; I can tell that this place really cares about their food! I’m hoping to go back again soon and try more of their menu.

Best brisket in town and in fact, it’s worth coming to town to eat here. The dining room is nicely laid out, cozy but not cramped with well-considered decor. This is a nice local restaurant which is a worthy destination because the food and experience are just so wonderful. I’ve driven by many times and finally managed to get in and, my gosh, it’s great. And very reasonably priced considering the excellent quality. I’m already planning to go again.
