★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Abby Robbie · Apr 2024

Driving by this place and seeing the outside is what initially intrigued me. Now normally, whole in the wall, off the beaten path places heighten my interest, but after trying this food today, I now know why I always drove past this place. When I first opened the food, it didn't smell 100% fresh, and then my order was wrong. I ordered the rib, chicken, and chop combo with green beans and okra. Instead of receiving green beans, I got a double portion of baked beans. When I opened the container, the bbq sauce was spilling out, so I already knew everything was oversauced to cover up the boo boo inside. That bbq sauce was not only off-putting but 1 whiff, and I was like uh huh I'm not eating that. The chicken was bland and had absolutely no seasoning. The ribs were hard, and the smokiness on i

I am from South Carolina, and I was in Georgia getting my truck serviced. Us South Carolinians love some good bbq. I went out looking for food. So I Google food near me and, this place popped up. That food was so good I would come back to Georgia just to go to this place. The guy that worked there was nice and friendly. The food was off the chain. ❤️

I smoke Texas Style BBQ and maaaann when the sauce is heavy like gravy on BBQ that’s tells it all fr. I drive pass every week to get to Sweet Sadie May’s, I always wondered why I never saw any cars there and I found out today. My ribs and chicken were cooked days ago and refrigerated only to be microwaved to reheat and Sale??? All the meats only come with sauce to hide the fact that’s it’s no where near fresh. This food could have been cooked last week fr, chicken was dry and under seasoned. Ribs were dry and old. How are you selling old food and still in business???? Do Not Visit if your looking for fresh bbq, Disappointed is an understatement 😳

Went to Tookes for the second time this year. Their food has changed some. They smoke the meat really well but it still needs more seasoning. I will say they give you enough food for what you pay. The sides were the best thing I've tasted in awhile, especially the mac and cheese.

I was craving Rib tips & this was the only establishment open. I asked if I could get the sauce on the side, I was told no because the tips come with the sauce. I didnt enjoy the rib tips due to the overwhelming mechanical smokiness and being over sauced, the greens were old but ok and the potato salad was good only because it was store brought and not made. I can't say that I would visit again.
