Hey. Without mom and pops we wouldn't be here.

Sorry Steve. I had too.

I agree about trying the non chain food places. tried Burks but did not like the look of the interior and the food was not that tastey. Of all the BBQ and Smokehouse food places in the area I like TWestons the best.

Suggest you try any place more than once to give them a chance, anyone can have a bad day - that said, have always had great food and service at TWestonsand I go there severalntimes a week at different times of the day

Now you did it...guess where I'm going for breakfast tomorrow. Hope you're feeling ok Skip and that your holidays were great! How did the shuffleboard team do? Better pm the answers so we don't get yelled at for hijacking a thread.

I vote for Oakwoods. I took my son there for his birthday and the ribs were great!!

I had the prime rib sandwich at Weston's and it was great - a large piece of meat and perfectly cooked.

The food especially the ribs at Oakwood is great and VERY consistant. I've eaten at Westons and Burkes and put them in the "I wouldn't go back category"

Burke's has all inside seating now.

The $12.99 price at Oakwood is a special for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday (maybe Wednesday, but not sure about that).
Other days it's full price.

When I read this entry on TWeston's it was obvious there is a problem with some of the statements being made in regards to TWeston's. As I have said numerous times, hope the folks who comment good or bad tell TWeston's what they think to their face and not slink about on the net saying how bad their food is. That said, I like reading all comments on food places, the good and the bad, but at least explain statements like "They Are Going To Fold", last I heard they were doing fine, just passed a year in business. Sorry some folks do not enjoy the food at TWeston's, but why keep bashing them, try them again or just do not go back, one comment per visit would be great. Obviously I enjoy TWeston's and no I am not a part of the management, just like to eat there for a change.

Boy did I ever get a surprise today. We had coupons that included a discount on Mario's newly added Full Slab Rib Dinner and we ordered it for my wife and I to split. Wow, if I said I've had better I'd be lying. It was at least as good as the best we've had if not the best and a far cry from the worse we ever got from TWestons.

Sorry to those who like TWestons, but I can't sugar coat how I feel about what I got for ribs, It was dried out and real hard to bite into. But as I did previously state I hope what I got from TWestons was the exception and not the rule!

I have no reservations in recommending anyone try the ribs we got today. Again we got them from Mangia Bené @ Mario's. (formerly Snappy Tomato Pizza) They have dine in, pickup and they deliver too. Their phone is 750-3330 and they're at La Plaza Grande @ Spanish Springs. If you do try them, please let us know how you honestly like them - no sugar coating please!

BTW, I have no affiliation with Mario's nor do I even know anyone there!
