★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Lorraine Dick · Nov 2025

Was recommended highly. WELL I won't be coming back. Waitress is sweet. Received food in good time considering it was a full house. Ordered footling dog. Chili cheese fries, iced tea. My fries were warm but the chili was as cold as just coming from fridge seriously! I liked the one bite of hotdog. So I told waitress. She apologized and said let me fix this. Over 10 minutes later the waitress said oh and asked cook where it was. He wasn't very nice. He said Hehad more orders in front of me. Waitress tried to ease it to me that he had 2 stacks of bbq he was working on. WAIT! MY ORDER was already out. Reheat the plate takes less that a min in microwave right? BUT the cook refused to heat it because there were orders in front of me! He said that in an unkid way to her. (I could hear him plainl

Tried to call and place a to-go order here yesterday but after answering the phone the girl said hold on and placed me on hold. After 16 minutes of waiting I got tired of it and decided to drive to the restaurant myself and place it there. When I got there it was very busy so I figured the girls were just working hard and needed a minute to handle everything. I placed my order with an older lady, she was very helpful and even recommended cheaper ways to place my order. After she brought it to the back and after I paid for it, I sat down at a table to wait for my order. I saw a young girl answering the phone and recognized the voice from when she answered my phone call, she was telling people to “hold on” sitting the phone down and leaning up against the wall until they came in to place it

★★★☆☆ 3.0 David Meier · Mar 2026

Very good BBQ and great service. The sides were ok and the atmosphere is pretty tired. I would give it 5 stars for carry out BBQ however.

★★★★★ 5.0 Dan Holley · Sep 2024

We've stopped here twice on our way to Blowing Rock, and we love the food and the service. Is it fancy... no. Is it a great place with great people... yes!! BTW, prices are easy on the wallet. Highly recommend the BBQ, very good carolina style.

Had a nice lunch. The pork plate was very good and I loved the hush puppies. Really enjoyed the corn nuggeets. Staff friendly and efficient and the prices can not be beat. I recommend this place if your looking for good pulled pork at a reasonable price.
