★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Ann Floyd · Mar 2026

Both meals were not what was typical. The 1/2 chicken dinner was burnt, the macaroni and cheese was dry and the potatoe salad was not fresh. The charge for a brisket dinner was a sandwich with the same sides. I called and left a message, have not heard from anyone. I know they feel that they have enough business that two people don't matter, but that is bad business.

INCREDIBLE restaurant. The people that work for the restaurant are incredible, the owners are amazing also. The food is EXCELLENT. It’s a beautiful restaurant, a vibe. The aura/energy is unbeatable. Family owned and you definitely feel welcomed everytime you come through the building. TOP TIER RECOMMENDATION!! If you haven’t already been, you need to go TODAY!! Family friendly, great pricing, the food? Absolutely worth the trip.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Jim Dilworth · Jan 2026

Like others that have left reviews, I too attempted to come here at least 5 times, and they were closed during the hours they were supposed to be open. I ordered about $70 worth of food. This is a BBQ joint but my burger tasted like it was cooked on a kitchen stove, no char. The brisket was mushy and served like pulled pork, and I couldn't finish the Mac. Ribs were ok but the potato salad was the star of the show. I probably won't be back but you should check it out for yourself.

The smoked turkey leg was fantastic (hot) and worth the trip alone. The ribs & chicken were great but they were lukewarm by the time we got home to eat (10 minute drive home). Always get the medium or large sides. We got smalls and laughed at the amount of amazing tasting items (collards, Mac & cheese, beans, and potato salad). My only complaint about the sides, is there wasn’t enough for leftovers. The chicken was a tiny bit overdone, but even Jackie Robinson missed some swings. (Edit) day 2-using the leftover turkey leg in my black-eye peas for Sunday dinner and OMG, the seasoning, the smoke, the leftover meat on the bone…these are the best peas!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Joshua Burnham (The Dapper Man) · Jul 2025

The food is amazing and delicious. The meat falls off the bone, and it is juicy. The mac and cheese has a nice kick to it, and the coward greens are cooked to perfection. This food joint is worth every penny and place to take your date, if you want to show off those sweet hot spot skills.
