I would have rated it five stars, but I received the wrong order without realizing it until I got home. They did call me back to inform me of the mistake, and I had to drive back to pick up the correct order. However, they generously compensated me with free mac and cheese for the inconvenience, which I really appreciated.

The ribs are incredible, the chicken is perfectly tender, and the spicy BBQ sauce is simply outstanding. The sandwiches are always satisfying, and I always make sure to order a side of cornbread. It’s a must-visit whenever I’m in the area.

I had a dollar so I gave it to them and they said 2 sauces would be $1.09 with tax. So I just took 1. I don't think I will be returning here.

The BBQ has that bark that you only get from long hours in the smoker but is tender and succulent at the same time.They also make good sandwiches (try the Philly cheese steak) and burgers (the BBQ burger w/avocado is my favorite). And they have a surprisingly good selection of fish dishes too including a seafood gumbo that is excellent.Outdoor dining at picnic tables or take-away are your only options. They closed their indoor dining room during the pandemic and remodeled to expand the kitchen instead.
