★★★★★ 5.0 Stan Gross · Feb 2026

A friend and I stopped in because of the positive feedback we’d seen. We got there right as they were opening to make sure they weren’t sold out of anything. It’s a cozy little spot with inside and outside seating - kind of rustic and not too fancy. We ordered the “Heavy Hitter” with Brisket, Chicken, Hot Links, Pulled Pork & Bologna. And we had Macaroni & Cheese, Collard Greens, & BBQ Baked Beans for our sides. It was a lot of food for two people. All the meats were tender, tasty and had a nice smoked flavor. The collard greens were probably the best I’ve had in any restaurant. Service by the staff was friendly and attentive.

This place is AMAZING & EXCELLENT!! The food is fantastic and delicious! The ribs are probably the best we've ever had. They are seasoned to perfection and fall off the bone. You can eat them without the sauce (but the sauce is delicious with it as well). The customer service is phenomenal! Every employee was patient, and so accommodating. This place gives you a down south feeling and hospitality. The owner and family are amazing. They truly live up to their high standard!

My boyfriend and I drove 30+ minutes to come try the food. SO GOOD!! The customer service was amazing, everyone was so so nice! We came right after the lunch rush and originally the only people there, but by the time we left, the parking lot was packed. We tried a little bit of everything and have no complaints for any of them!! The seasoning and crust was perfect on all the options, but my favorite was the oxtail eggrolls. Ignore the negative reviews, this place has delicious food, a wonderful environment, very friendly employees, and you definitely feel the welcoming family atmosphere. Would absolutely come again!! (Sorry about the poor picture quality, we couldn’t wait to dig in)

TO THE OWNERS RESPONSE, NO! This isn’t an ad for little miss bbq this a NEGATIVE review. Your response to every bad review is why you won’t go any further than you are. There’s clear differences in how professional businesses run their ship and possibly the reason someone can even come on your review page and mention another restaurant. These are the type of responses you get from people of a certain ethnicity and why I refuse to even do business with them majority of the time. Every review that said you’re RUDE I’m now inclined to believe because that’s what you display in your responses to paying customers. I knew when the gentlemen behind the counter presented my plate to me that the brisket was going to be a big disappointment and it was. Mark wiens introduced me to Little Miss BBQ an
