    We unfortunately had our booking cancelled due to the guys losing power, however it was nice to get a courtesy call to let us know. But I know the food is amazing and looking forward to going when we can get out there!

    Not a restaurant, when we found it, it operates out of the football club with outdoor seating. Expected a restaurant or Cafe, decided to go somewhere else.

    Perfect for our group with kids. Food was great, beers flowed and kids ran around and had the best time! Birria tacos were the absolute best. Thank you team!

    Food was cold and soggy. From what we ate, it was tasty, but would have been much better if it was warm and fresh. The service was awful. We booked a table 4 days in advance, got there and our table was no where to be seen. Went and saw the staff about our booking and the young girl didn’t care and told us to find a spare table. We had high expectations but was let down with this experience.

    Quickly became my favourite and go to barbecue. Can say every time I’ve returned, it gets better and better! Will continue to bring more and more friends and family here. ????

    The pricing on the fork menu is cheaper than what I paid and the rib is not a thing they do thus it shouldn’t have been on there. I also expected a more smoky flavour as the meat hardly tasted smoky. These are the only concerns I had otherwise everything was good.

    Food was good but could not sit inside as there were lots of drunk and noisy young people inside outside seating was all that were available and needs some improvement not a place to take a young family

    Platter was great to try everything they offer. Slightly pricey but it’s the time it takes to get this meat to perfection. Will be back for the birria tacos that’s for sure!

    Simply Awsome! We shared an Ultimate platter and it was seriously some tasty finger licking good BBQ. The Birria tacos were worth the hype and my favourite thing on the platter was easily the mac n cheese. We coming back for sure

    First impressions of the place was that it was really ran down, I had no idea it would be set up like an old school tuck shop.. indoor sitting was a bunch of folded tables and chairs and there were so many flies! I went for the birria tacos because of the photos I had seen on their page looked absolutely amazing but sadly to my disappointment when I got mine, I got the smallest container for the sauce and I couldn’t even dip them into it and enjoy the experience.. my partner and I shared the platter which in my opinion was definitely over priced- the chips were crinkle cut from coles but I do give the seasoning props. The Mac and cheese was cold and for $89 dollars would would think you would get like a corn or at least a full kransky? The brisket was great and the pickled chillies were delicious. It looked nothing like the photos you see on the internet which is a shame because I will probably not be returning or telling family and friends to try it out.

    Not a pretentious massive fancy spot, just amazing food at decent prices. It is at the football grounds in coorparoo and they have perfected the barbecue flavours. The cheeseburger is insaaaaane!

    the food was nice. the brisket fries were amazing, but the birria could've had more flavour and more cheese. Aside from that, the meat in the birria was good though. The setting could definitely be better.

    Incredible value for money. You get a lot of meat on the tasting plate. All 3 were cooked brilliantly (brisket, turkey and pork) fall apart and succulent. Fast service. Not sure why there was already 15 people lining up when we arrived. Will know we don't need to panic next time

    Went to the footy club not knowing anything about the place. It's a great place for kids, and if you have a dog, plenty of outside seating. You can book, but very basic set up - not really a restaurant. Food is good though.

    Food was great, service and staff were fun to watch and listen too when they were singing! Should add more couples tables under cover instead of on the barrels out the side. And didnt know alcohol was served until we went to the bathroom inside

    Food was awesome, was very quick service. The bbq box is big enough for two. Maybe just some loaded chips to go with the bbq box. Will definitely go again.

    We were excited to come back to enjoy one of the best tacos ever but overall this experience was very disappointing. We had ordered the brisket plate with tacos and after patiently waiting for an hour, I inquired about the status of the order, they said that it was not ready. After another 30 minutes had passed, they were closing the kitchen, so my partner went to ask about our order again. The cashier and chefs asked what we had ordered. After informing them of our order the chefs said they will start working on it. Clearly our order had been forgotten. Once our order came out, half the meal wasn’t there. We were one of the first ones there and one of the last ones to leave. They were also not as busy as their usual nights.

    A great spot for a casual dinner. Do not expect table cloths and cutlery. This is a place where you can bring your dog and your kids and they can run sound on the grass.

    Heard a lot about this place, drove 40 minutes to go there, had a reservation, was late but called ahead. Reservation was at a fold up table. Waited 45 minutes for 2 burgers chips and a brisket pack, place was full when we got there and empty by the time we ate. Was told everyone had ordered before us yet people just rocked up and got their food. Utterly disappointing. Brisket was ok for $30 for 3 strips. Chips were the frozen crimpy kind…won’t ever go back…

    I had been waiting to come visit for such a long time and we finally got a booking, however the food was nothing like the pictures had enticed us with and my birria tacos had no flavour at all and way too much cheese :(

    Food as always was excellent, best value for money in town. Good informal setting, glad I reserved a table, patrons streamed into venue as we finished. Was disappointed that Ribs were sold out by Thu when we arrived at 6pm.

    Great food. Burria and Reuben delish! Fast service. Friendly staff. Once they turned the music up and the staff started singing the atmosphere improved ???? Will definitely be back to try more of the menu.

    Watched on TikTok many times and had to check it out. Good fun and enjoyed the tacos and burgers. Staff are friendly and plenty of seating on the day we went. It is an open setting near an AFL football field so don’t be expecting plush. It is an authentic meatfest.

    Staff's was really nice, and the food was amazing. Just the wait was a bit long. But the footy game caught my attention so the wait didn't bother much.

    I booked a table for 14 people to celebrate my birthday at 1pm , when we got there (12:30) they were out of food and we had to order one out 2 burgers they had left, it was quite disappointing as we went there for the food. When I asked them how’s possible they have a booking for that amount of people and have no food to offer they didn’t seem to care. On the other hand, the staff in the back was kind and supportive when we cut the cake. In summary: a restaurant without food

    The food is delicious! Portion sizes and prices provide great value for money. Service was friendly and real, food was prepared quickly as well. The ambience is a little out of these guys control. It’s at a footy club is noise and hustle is to be expected IMO. We just picked a bad time as they had a meeting over the loud speaker at the time. Otherwise think it’s a great little spot to set up such great food!

    Food was nice was exactly what it said it would be however seems to be under staffed and needs some music or something it was a bit flat. signage could be better from the car park to the actual place as it looks like a football club bar rather than the intended place of bbq mafia
