In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Okemos; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Michigan are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. The most common schedule is 11 am–8 pm.

Was in the area passing threw wanted some bbq to lazy and to hot outside to fire up the grill Looking at some reviews post and pictures it kinda hit or miss i think It should be consistent for what u pay for For me today it a miss I ordered a few things First The ribs is kinda dry Second the sausage is too dry 3rd the chicken wings was too overcooked and dry The skins too rubbery or chewing Pulled pork was good Mack cheese and collard greens was decent. Now the best bbq item we got was the brisket It soft tender not to fatty Except for the brisket the best items Everything was ok could be better You're be judge don't πŸ€” know what happened ???

So I'm originally from Missouri St Louis to be exact and I've had amazing BBQ and have been searching for the perfect BBQ for years in Michigan my new home state. And have yet to come across the perfect spot so I decided to give Saddleback a shot, wait was fairly long to be expected with BBQ, I got the sampler which is a perfect way to test all the meats for BBQ so I got the wings, pulled pork, and brisket along with a few sides I got it to go btw. The brisket was decent nice bark not quite the tender fall apart in your hand but still flavorful (I think it needed to smoke a little longer), the pulled pork was pretty good, however this is where it turns the wings were extremely dry and the meat was tough. Needed more time on the smoker less time in the fryer, and the Mac N Cheese needed the most help dry, and conglomerated, would like to see baked or even smoked Mac N Cheese.

Quiet little spot the food was amazing! Best pulled pork I've had in a while. The mac and cheese is creamy and has a bit of a pepper jack flavor, it's soo good. Even the fries had a great sweet salty seasoning and perfectly crispy. Definitely a new favorite.

My husband and I stopped in for some barbecue and wanted leftovers to take home to the kids. We ordered the family deal. We enjoyed a wonderful meal, the barbecue was amazing and all the sauces are gluten-free so that was a huge bonus! Everything was delicious and we will be back!

We travel for a hour and 20 minutes to get there and was so disappointed . We went to order our food first I try to order the burn ends switch is the special for Friday and Saturday and got told my best time to get them would be on Friday . So they wear out of the special at 5:30 in the evening and also out of French fries and coleslaw. I'am sorry to say but this was not the best BBQ. We got the pull pork and the brisket which you pay extra for. The meat we order was dry and no flavor. It was disappointing. The restaurants over all was very clean and the staff was friendly.
