★★★★★ 5.0 Tiffany Mcgowen · Nov 2025

I will be making my husband drive us back up here from Florida just to have another meal. 10/10 delicious!! Amazing portion for the price. Friendly staff and cute dining area

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Dawn Bininger (Dawnie72) · Dec 2024

Very strange experience. Apparently you can't dine in but you can drive through & then go in & eat? Super friendly service. The highlight was the fried chicken & sweet potato casserole. Delish! Sadly, the brisket was not good. Swimming in a tomato sauce. Hush puppies had no flavour & the mac & cheese was inedible. I would return for the chicken but skip the bbq.

Food was delicious. Must be a local favorite. There was a line worth the wait. The sweet potato casserole was unique and tasty

★★★★★ 5.0 Nicholas Addesso · Sep 2024

Can't rate higher, food was excellent quality, quickly delivered to us in the drive thru, and for under $25 for two hungry adults it couldn't be beat. We decided to bring our meal on the porch to eat and the staff was so kind and helpful; asking if we needed any refills or anything else. The fried chicken had such an amazing battering and a crunch that made heads turn. The side salad was pretty, and the grilled cheese made my vegetarian girlfriend cry of joy. Will be returning when back in the state.

Byron and the crew were very nice. The best BBQ I've ever eaten. It was worth the ride. I highly recommend the BBQ, the chicken was good but it was just fried chicken. Not what I was expecting. I thought it'd be covered in sauce but it was still good and EVERYTHING was fresh.
