We ordered to go and our meal was ready on time and perfectly accurate. I would recommend Sharon's to anyone looking for a great bbq dinner.

We wanted brisket and thankfully they had enough for two plates. The meat and sides were delicious and the staff was warm and friendly!

The chicken thighs were overcooked and tough on the outside, while the vegetables were lukewarm and had been left out long enough that the macaroni and cheese had solidified. The potato salad had lost its creaminess and contained large chunks of potato, and the red beans were not soft at all. The corn was dried out, clearly having been on the warmer for too long. Additionally, the jalapeño cornbread was overcooked and hard on both the top and bottom. We understand that prices have risen due to Covid and increasing ingredient costs, but it’s frustrating to pay more for food that doesn’t meet the usual standard. This was not what we typically expect from this restaurant. Notably, we only saw new faces among the staff last night, which may have affected our experience, as the regular team is usually excellent and the food is always outstanding!

Even though we were the only customers at the time, it took nearly 15 minutes for them to serve us the meats we ordered after we lined up in a cafeteria-style fashion. All the side dishes were cold, despite some being meant to be hot. The meat tasted as if it had been left out and then reheated. I wouldn’t recommend this place; there are better options available, but unfortunately, they were closed.
