  This is a hidden gem of a joint. For best results call ahead because the restaurant can get very crowded. Allow at least 30 minutes for the order so it will be ready when you arrive. The staff is always friendly and was especially cheery today dressed as elves. The husband and wife team (I assume) that run the show are top-notch and give the establishment character and charm. We've been customers three times and have grown quite fond of the restaurant and the people. Today I had beef ribs while my wife ordered a tri tip sandwich. The sandwich was spectacular. The beef ribs were a little dry for my liking, but I still enjoyed them very much. I am just not used to smoking. The flavor was excellent and I think the intention is that the ribs would not be as dry with the addition of BBQ sauce. I gladly devoured the ribs with minimal sauce and 'helped' my wife with the tri tip.

  Amazing! Delicious! We stop as often as we can on the way home to Salinas from the central valley! And the people that work there!? Great! I ordered a blue moon and I asked Danny if they had oranges to go with the beer. Oh my goodness! He actually ran over to 7/11 to see if they had any oranges! NO WAY!
  Service with the Smile! Wonderful!
  Feel bad though,... just realized that I forgot to tip! So Sorry. Next time!

  Place is only open 3 days a week, but when it's open, it's great and always a favorite.
