"Wow... wish I could give zero stars. It was just THAT bad.First of all, when we entered the "restaurant" (and I use that term loosely), there were three tables. Period. Two were taken by customers who were dining, and the third had laptops & paperwork set out, where a man, either a store employee or the owner, not sure which, was taking care of business. So there we stood awkwardly while we waited for a table. Never once was an attempt made to clear out the makeshift desk so that we could actually sit. Of course, we had the choice to sit outside, but since it was 85 degrees, we passed.Once we were seated, the sales spiel began. Clearly the aim of this place is not to serve meals, it's to hawk products. And hawk they did, from the two containers of "sample" honey on the table, to the "snack" of tortilla chips we were brought (where we then learned all about them, the sodium content, the sea salt, etc.). I ordered the peach tea, which was brought to me in a partially filled paper cup, no ice. Just lukewarm tea.An interminably long period of time later, the waitress came waltzing in the front door with a tray. I guess they aren't connected to the kitchen? It was very odd. Anyway, she brought two of the three meals, explaining that she didn't have room on the tray for the third. So then we sat awkwardly for over five minutes awaiting the third entree, a salad. Finally the man who had been utilizing the table "desk" waltzed through the front door with my friend's salad, explaining, "you ordered a very labor intensive meal. I had to pit the olives by hand." Whaaat?! So there we sat with our food and began eating it, and again, both of the individuals working there came to the table and repeated the hawking of the items sold in the store. So you'd think now that we were finally free to enjoy our meal, right? You'd be wrong unfortunately. The same man then sat at the table "desk", picked up the phone, and called someone (presumably a creditor or supplier) to argue a bill. Loudly. This would have been rude from another patron, but from a store employee? It was absolutely ludicrous. At this point, we were rolling our eyes at one another, simply wanting to escape. We struggled to eat our food on our disposable dishes with a disposable fork, no knives provided of course, and finally just gave up, but not before my friend bit into an olive that had not been pitted.The food... it was okay, I suppose, but the portions are teeny tiny, and they skimp terribly on ingredients. For the price, this just wasn't okay. My turkey biscuits, salad & tea came to $18.Suffice to say, the disorganization & flightiness of these two were astounding. Let's put it this way: I was glad I had cash and didn't have to hand over my credit card.Never again. I feel for the unsuspecting tourists who may wander in. Yelpers, you've been warned."
"I found myself craving BBQ the other day so I decided to stop in. While I missed the ambiance of Red, Hot, and Blue playing blues music, the food at Route 60 was pretty good. The pulled chicken was pretty good and the sauce was flavorful. The real winner(s) for me were the sides. The Mac and Cheese was creamy and delicious. The waffle fries were crisp and well seasoned. The cornbread was fluffy and sweet. Finally, the hush puppies, were crisp and warm. I feel that I see two different styles of hush puppies and I much prefer this one. Overall, it is a good barbecue joint."
"Food was good but the drinks were expensive. The environment is nice and the waitress we had was awesome."
