Delicious bbq. Chopped pork is wonderful. Wife loved the brisket. Huge portions. Slaw and baked beans were the perfect compliment. Not a fan of the green beans with a really smoky taste-not bad, just not my preference. Staff and service were superior. Even the pit master came to check on us. A must add to your eating out rotation!
Really good! The owner really cares about his restaurant, it shows in the food! I like how this place is quickly becoming a local hub of good food, good people, and good times. You won't regret eating here, eighty years of BBQ experience, and a home town feel make Allman's BBQ a must try!
My wife and I are new to the area and stopped in for the brisket meal (1lb meat and 2 large sides), we got beans and the mac-n-cheese. We also ordered an extra cole slaw. The brisket was delicious with a great smokey flavor and fall apart tender. I judge a bbq place by their beans and Allman's nailed them. The slaw was nothing fancy but flavorful and sweet. The bbq sauce is a heavy vinegar base. I prefer a more Southern style that is thicker and molasses based. Luckily it's not Carolina mustard base which I'm not a fan of. Regardless of the sauce, the brisket is on point and we will definitely be back to try the pork. The owners were super friendly and we all had a good laugh.
My mom and I stopped in to grab a quick bite and I am hooked. Unfortunate that they are only open a few days a week, but I’ll be returning for sure. The bbq has the best flavor. You don’t even need sauce! I tried the potato salad and bbq beans. They were both delicious. Price is comparable to other bbq restaurants in the area. Staff was friendly.
I had a pound of the brisket, some Mac and cheese and the coleslaw. The brisket was tender but really just didn't do it for me. The Mac and cheese was horrible and the coleslaw was average at best.
