Tried this new spot last night. Opened in the last week or so, I believe.
Owners are the group that owns the two locations Dox restaurants and another bbq spot in southern NH - and you could tell they’d done this before. Six of us, made reservations and glad we did as got busy after 6. Service - excellent. Food - excellent. Many in our group did combo platters and can attest that the pulled chicken, brisket and burnt ends are all excellent. Variety of sauces on the table and my favorite was the Carolina. Hubby liked the ghost pepper. Jalapeño cornbread very tasty and moist. Cajun waffle fries awesome. Collard greens excellent. Mac n cheese very good. Can’t say anything that could have been done better. It was excellent overall. We will certainly be back and I highly recommend you try it. Get there before 6 if you can…even on a Thursday after 6 filled up quickly and there was a wait but our reservations were 530 so we were seated right away. |

Wifey and I enjoyed a great BBQ dinner at The Alamo Sunday evening.
The food was great. The portions were BIG. The service was great. The prices were reasonable. We will be going back again. My dinner was the pick two of BBQ and consisted of a "half" rack of ribs (that was so big it could tip over Fred Flintstone's car), some tender beef brisket, baked beans, extra yummy collard greens and corn bread. Wifey had the "smash burger" tacos and a flight (4) of margaritas. I hope this place makes it because it is only a twelve minute drive for me. |

We went for lunch today and it was good! My only complaint is the ribs I ordered were served at room temp. While they were fall off the bone good and I’m sure they are smoked to proper temp, I would have like them served warmer. All in all good barbecue and I will be back. See pics below…

Am I seeing it right that a 3-meat with ribs would be $47? That's pretty pricey, especially as those plates don't look all that stacked.
Has anyone tried the chicken and waffles?! Sent from my SM-S931U using Tapatalk |

Everything I spend money on these days is pricey.
Relative to other choices, I deem this place worth it. I do miss the 15 cent hamburgers of days gone by... |

We have been twice.
Both times there were empty tables but we had a wait of over 1/2 hour in the entry way before being seated. They said they didn't want to seat more people than the kitchen could handle. It would have been better to clear the entry and seat people with the explanation that it would be a wait before they got served. They could have taken a drink order when they explained that. It would help their bottom line and be a better experience for their patrons. While waiting, watching the hostesses and staff there seemed to be a lot of organizational problems that many new businesses start with. The food was good and we will go back. |

![]() ![]() It seems like all these new restaurants are starting out with new, higher price points. A $20 hamburger with fries is not uncommon now. So much for inflation subsiding. |

I agree, that is way out of line for BBQ, especailly for the portions shown above, even in todays pricing/cost climate

The best authentic barbecue is still The Traveling Texas Smoke Shop” I’m my opinion on route 104…
