Clients Reviews

Drive-thru specializing in smoked meat, located right next to Target. Ordered a pork belly sub on a baguette (you may know this as a banh mi). Comes wrapped, but when we opened it, it was absolutely loaded with meat and vegetables. A perfect amount of sauce gives a fantastic tang to go with the carrots and cilantro. The smoked pork belly is a unique add to it but 1000% recommend.

Jesse N.

So good. They smoke all their own meats and have really fresh ingredients. The combination of the spicy pulled pork and the pickled vegetables on a crusty roll is immaculate. I like the pulled pork the best, but both the bbq beef and the pork belly are solid choices as well. And for the vegetarians, my wife says the tofu sandwich is good. Drive through only, but I've shown up in my car, on bike, on foot. Quick service. Do yourself a favor and stop here, I'm usually here at least once a week.

The food here is always top notch. Especially the pork belly. I enjoy their rice bowls and their sandwiches. My go to drink is a Thai tea with boba or a watermelon smoothie with boba. The staff is always hella friendly.

Gustavo S.

I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! Found this place on a Google search traveling through Eureka and were not disappointed. We tried three different meats (BBQ Beef was my favorite) with all the spice levels and we loved all of them. Service was excellent, and he was super patient as we made our choices. 10/10 would recommend.

Chris H.

Excellent service! The subs are great. I'll note the avocado melts are not a ton of food even with the pork belly, but the subs are perfect. The melts are good if your appetite isn't as high, but you want a little pick-me-up. The folks who work there are super sweet and really care about the food, it's evident!

Katherine N.

Julie G.

Ordered the avocado melt added pork belly and it was so creamy and delicious. Loved the spicy mayo. Also order the pulled pork spicy sub which was also good and the spicy is actually spicy. All the produce was crispy and fresh gave the sandwich a nice crunch. Service was great and food didn't take too long.
