★★★★☆ 4.0 Anthony · Feb 2026

Friendly service and good food but forgettable. I got the rib tips plate they were good but I wasn’t blown away. Everyone there was ordering the BLT so maybe I should have gotten that. The potato salad was good

★★★★★ 5.0 John Jordan · Dec 2025

I drove up from Edwards, MS to see the Delta Blues Museum and stopped in to try the tamales. They were really good. Nicely seasoned. Big Abe's Chili Cheeseburger was awesome (I got slaw on mine, very nice). The sweet tea was delicious as well. Our waitress was very nice. Definitely worth the drive.

★★★★★ 5.0 Jeremy M · Feb 2026

Awesome classic barbecue joint at The Crossroads. The mildly sweet sauce and vinegar slaw on soft buns is a flavor experience not to miss. I had the Big Abe.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kenneth Geraci · Feb 2026

Over a hundred years of doing Bbq right at the famous crossroads where blues began get the tamales,pulled pork sandwich and an order of baked beans and you will be fine as wine

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jessica Eubanks · Oct 2025

Its a no for me. Only one person working the floor, so I cleaned my own table. Employees were nice, and I gave it a 2 because of the atmosphere, otherwise I would have rated it a 1. Food had no flavor, beans were bland, potatoes salad came from a store. The meat had no favor and was extremely greasy. I left my plate full and walked out. I paid because I ordered it. Went down the street to Walmart and got Tums. Had heartburn almost immediately. Look at the grease one the table from the plate in the pic.
