Overpriced small servings. The size of the smoked meat sandwich was a joke

Would love to try but $26 without tip for a smoked meat sandwich seems outlandish.

UPDATE: I tried it, multiple times now, & love it.

Overpriced food, small portions, & everything is sold separately - honestly, there's no value here. The service was disappointing, & to make it worse, the owner was yelling at staff while customers were trying to eat. Not the kind of atmosphere you want when you're paying restaurant prices
