For the best takeout sandwiches this place can’t be beat - always excellent! Fries are extremely good super crispy and not dry, Cheeseburger is super flavourful juicy and meat is cooked perfectly. Melts in your mouth and always always always worth the good price. Pulled pork sandwich delicious as well as the brisket, which is so juicy and both are smoked exceptionally well overnight which leads to the strong taste and smoky aroma. Highly recommend. Unfortunately though there are only two tables in the place though and it is really empty

This food is insanely good. Best BBQ Brisket, chicken, empanadas, and Cuban sandwiches I’ve ever had. Not an exaggeration. This chef knows what he’s doing and does not compromise on quality. I would recommend take out if ordering from here and order more than you can eat because you WILL want leftovers.

The food is AMAZING! We've tried the Cuban sandwich, steak sandwich, pulled pork, and wings. This chef knows what he's doing! I told my friend today that when I mention "the barbecue place" in the future, this is the only place I'm referencing. Good portion sizes and fair prices. As for atmosphere...it's friendly, but there isn't much seating space and not much decor. That said, I intend to support this establishment so they can grow into a bigger space with Peruvian atmosphere! By the way, they cater, too.

WOW!!!!! That was probably some of the best food I've ever put in my mouth! It's all there, all the flavor.. I am a Cuban sandwich fanatic and this was THE BEST CUBAN sandwich I've ever had, ever! We ordered a little bit of everything including the empanadas, the steak skewers and two different sandwiches, crispy chicken BLT and the Cuban. Not only will these sandwiches make you want to smack yo momma, you're not breaking the bank to enjoy them! Staff is great, prices are super reasonable which will keep me coming back. Can't wait to go back and try the weekend BBQ, which sells out from what I understand. If you go once, you'll be back... Don't say I didn't tell you so!! 🤙🏼
