If you're a rib eater, then this is the place to go. Ribs are amazing, so good. I will definitely be back. Thank you, Holt Brothers BBQ, for a yummylicous dinner. I highly recommend this place.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Justin Williamson · Oct 2024

So I’d say skip over this spot as a first impression… Stopped in today for a quick dinner, pulled pork sandwich plate. Sandwich was very large, but slaw couldn’t be ordered on the sandwich…(should have been my first clue) I have to be honest and say I didn’t even eat half of it. It was not enjoyable. Over seasoned and didn’t seem fresh. Very wet and watery, made the bun soggy. The tots were fresh and fine, but just regular frozen bag style tots. Tea was sweet! I don’t envision myself coming back in for a second try. I was the only person eating in the restaurant and I had to skip by three dirty/sticky tables. Staff was nice enough, but really lacked care. Building looks nice from outside, patio area is a nice touch, but inside is a little claustrophobic and basic.

Gross. They reheat ribs in the deep fryer then poured the grease over the chopped brisket. 1/2” of oil in the bottom of the container. Had to throw away my dinner. Canned beans have a very odd flavor. All terrible 0 stars.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Barbie PerkinsCooper · Dec 2025

First time eating here. Also, my last time too. Out of chicken so the pecan chicken salad wasn’t available. Pulled BBQ was too hot for my culinary taste buds. I told them I could not eat it, so I ordered cheeseburger

I go every couple weeks and my last few visits the hush puppies were under cooked. Please cook them longer or if that will cause them to burn make them smaller or change the shape into something oblong. Other than that the food is good and staff is friendly.
