The perfect stop on the way to OC!!!! Call and order and it will be ready when you arrive. The best brisket i think I’ve ever had…and I’m from Texas. It was perfectly smoked, tender, flavorful. Everything is homemade that i had. The owner was so welcoming. The potato salad was excellent, Mac and cheese was excellent. Everything on the plate was a true treat. The cinnamon rolls are house made and were the perfect sweet treat. She had everything packed and ready when i arrived.

I visited with my friends because of the interesting name and we stayed for the amazing food. Everything is homemade (including their BBQ sauce!!) and I had a great time overall. The owners are so sweet and I will definitely be going back when I'm in the area. If youre passing through Willards MD, this hidden gem is a must-have rest stop. 11/10 experience❤️
