Sooey's BBQ & Rib Shack

Terrible experience. Waited almost two hours for food I hardly even ate. My family and I arrived a little past 7:00pm. We were told we could go sit at a table then didn’t get any utensils and our drink order wasn’t taken until after 10 minutes of just sitting there. We finally ordered our drinks and appetizer and our waitress just walked away. We were all ready to order our main food, but she didn’t take any of our orders until she came back another 10 minutes later. We finally all ordered and then it took almost 40 minutes for our appetizer, which was mozzarella sticks, to finally come out. Those were awful. Literally just breading with no cheese in them. After waiting all that time, the waitress came to me to tell me I couldn’t get my onion rings because they were sold out. So, I opted

Stopped by to eat because everyone else was closed. I wasn't expecting much, but my, was I wrong. We ordered mozzarella sticks, delicious, full rack of ribs, excellent, and I ordered the fried chicken with BBQ chicken. The chicken was excellent, my favorite was the fried chicken. I've haven't had southern fried chicken in awhile and it was delicious. I definitely recommend this restaurant. The best part was the little kid that cleaned up my table. I didn't tip much on my tab, but I gave the kid the difference.

Wow! Not sure why this place is rated only 4 stars. Our waitress was awesome and helped out a very large group. The food was good and came fast.

Found this place randomly while waiting on check in. Absolutely wonderful food. Ribs so tender and juicy....falling off the bone! The crab cake dinner was good. I LOVED the greens! The chicken was great...nice crunch....Mild sauce was amazing and ranch and tarter tasted homemade! The only thing I would say is the Mac n cheese tasted like box. But all in all great food. I will return!

7/24/22 Visited the restaurant today after our Corolla Wild Horse Tour. We arrived at 8:30 p.m. and the kitchen staff cook informed us that they were closed. We were greeted by a young lady named Destiny who told us that we could get a takeout order. We tried their beef brisket & ribs with sides of fried okra, coleslaw and potato salad we asked for an order of baked beans which were left out and iced tea. The meat was good as was the potato salad and okra the slaw was okay. The ribs & brisket had really good seasoning and the BBQ sauce was good but a very small amount. We may try the Nags Head location next time to see if they have better preparation.
