Then started going to the Midtown location as soon as it opened up. Can’t wait to see what they can do in this location with the extra space. Their concepts are brilliant and the food is amazing.

Did think they had 2x the sq footage they probably needed — bar area was waaaay too big (never came to mind to watch a game at), and there was a lot of space between tables that certainly contributed to service challenges walking from kitchen to far ends (drink refills in particular). <br /><br />I know people love Sams BBQ nearby. I think Sams is a diff category, more cafeteria style and old school nostalgia — versus Loyal Q, which was always a place you could have a date night or a family night at. <br /><br />Sincerely thank everyone involved with launching the restaurant. Wsh it worked out better.

The food simply wasn't good. The barbecue meat was good, but the sauces weren't great and the sides were terrible. We used to order the meat takeout, but use our own sauce. Also the concept didn't work - a barbecue sports bar??? In the Loyal Tavern incarnation, the food wasn't any better. I ordered a shrimp po'boy and got soggy tempura battered shrimp sandwich - terrible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-79277988828631620212019-06-05T15:32:47.084-04:002019-06-05T15:32:47.084-04:00Opening a bbq restaurant near Sam's

I had the Texas something or other. It was literally a chicken breast served on a bun.....no garnishment whatsoever. So no it doesn't surprise me at all.<br /><br />Giving them credit, their smoked turkeys we purchased for Christmas were outstanding.
