Ever since the Ugly Dog Saloon & BBQ's humble beginnings in 1998, smoked meats slathered in BBQ sauce have been their nom de plume. They now offer a variety of specialty sandwiches and a few palate-pleasing New Orleans dishes. The Saloon also serves a wide array of delicious cocktails and local craft beers.
