I feel like the only people giving this place a good review are people working here. One bite and you will know it’s grossssssss. Shouldn’t be. A 4 star I got tricked. It’s 2 star at best . The pulled pork is kind of decent maybe a 4/10 the sides are really gross. The coleslaw is bitter the beans had old hard meat chunks in it. They give you two pieces of white bread instead of garlic bread like most places.no one wants white bread and it came with a peace of pound cake. I tried a bite of it. The cake taste like chemicals and floor cleaners. I would go somewhere else for sure.

This was not the first time coming to eat here but I have not been here for a year because the food was not good at that time either. I was craving BBQ so we decided to go here personally I did not like the food we bought not many sides to choose from either. We personally don't eat pork. The chicken had no flavor and there wasn't enough food to fill me or my family up. I was highly disappointed. Different taste buds for different people but honestly this one here is not for us. Maybe I'll give them a shot in the near future just not anytime soon.

Food was absolutely horrible. I wasted $50. We barely made it to Daleville and both throwing up and sick.

So I love the price and the quality of the food ! The people were super nice and the establishment very clean! The combo was an amazing value. The fried okra was fantastic and the green beans very flavorful! The meat in my opinion was a little bland, which usually leads to award winning sauce. Sadly the sauce was ok and not great. But the meat was all super moist and wicked tender! I would go back and it's definitely worth a try while in town!

The employees were very nice. The food came out fast. I love they have Pepsi Zero there. The cake, fries and bread were good. The chopped chicken was dry. Rice had no flavor but of the chicken bits in it. The potato salad seemed to be mixed with some fully cooked potatoes and some hard undercooked ones.
Love eating here. Their sandwiches are amazing.But I really love their chopped chicken salad. Delicious!At the register if you look to the right you'll notice the a big glass window and behind them are the pits. Amazing, cause I had never noticed them before. It gives the places an atmosphere, in my opinion.And outside in front you'll find they have a few rocking chairs. Which is nice. Kinda wish they had a table or two outside to sit and eat.I have to be honest though, the BBQ sauce is not my favorite.The restroom has two stalls and is pretty well cared for - (meaning clean.)We dine in, but at times we take out too.
The ribs were smoked perfectly, they were very moist and the meat just fell off the bone! Delicious!! Beans are on point!BBQ sauce however lacked depth and taste. I tried the regular and spicy. All I tasted was sugar and no spice or flavor. The hot was not even hot and tasted exactly like the regular sauce.

Came in at 6:30pm on a Saturday night with a friend and was surprised to see an empty parking lot on a Saturday night. Once we walked in we were met by an abrasive sarcastic older gentleman at the counter, who could not answer basic questions without making you feel stupid in the process. The place was not clean. We had to clean the table we sat down at. The floor had napkins on the ground that the servers would keep walking past. And once served our food, the young lady seemed inexperienced or not properly trained for the service industry. For the food, the meat was not worth the money. The fries were really good, but really heavy on the salt. In summary, the place seems to lack good management, has very poor service, was not clean, and the food was very overpriced with what we were served. Will not be going back.

Overall decent experience. Staff was friendly and polite, restaurant was clean and enjoyable to be at. Food was average. Had the ribs, chicken, baked beans, and fries. Meats tasted good, well smoked. Biggest thing was the sauces. Had 3 options of hot, mild, and sweet BBQ sauce. Tried all 3 and wasn't a fan of any. The sauce can make or break the meal, I'd advise to have different types of sauces to accommodate different tastes. All 3 here tasted very similar, with the 'hot' not being spicy whatsoever. If they had some decent sauce, would definitely be able to give 4 or 5 stars.
