Not what I was expecting from “award winning BBQ” their was only one sauce option, so I hope you like it. The meat was fatty and not juicy or tender, like you would expect from a smoker. My husband and I left with some pretty painful stomach cramps. (The Mac and cheese was pretty good tho!)

I had a call in order I waited approximately 35 minutes. One of your workers noticed me still sitting there waiting for my food. She asked for my receipt. They look for my food, and it wasn’t prepared. The reason she gave me was that they are understaffed that is not the customer problem!!

I was craving some saucy food today, so I decided to give this place a fair try. It’s a rather local place, so I definitely wanted to swing by. After you walk inside, it seems to be more of a to-go place, rather than a sit-down restaurant. I browsed the large menu they had up top and placed an order. I ordered the Rib Tip/Hot Link Combo (Large), which included Fries for $17.25. I also got 3 J*** Chicken Tacos for $8.00 and a Large Mac and Cheese for $5.75. The cashier told me 15-20 minutes for my order. I found a chair and began to wait. There were a medley of people waiting around for their food as well. I’d say their operation with that is sloppy. My food ended up taking about half an hour it seemed. I took it home with the anticipation of finding a great new place. Well, the Rib Tip/Hot Link Combo sure was heavy. Heavy doesn’t win the race, though. The Rib Tips were infested with fat on just about all of them. They just weren’t worth the digging. They had a faded, smoky flavor. The few bites I managed to scoundrel were okay, but the labor didn’t add up to the reward. The Hot Link was pretty good. I liked the spice it gave off and it was a really good size. The Fries weren’t too bad. They had barbecue sauce on them all and it added a bit of flavor. They also gave a piece of bread in the Combo. It was decent. The Mac and Cheese was pretty plain. It had better moments with the thicker areas of cheese melted on the Mac. I feel they could have gave more for the price. The J*** Chicken Tacos were right on the line of average for me. The Chicken aspect was not the most flavorful with a distant breeze of heat. The vegetables were fresh, so that helped out a lot. The service wasn’t too friendly. The cashier seemed to belittle me as I was ordering and nothing was warm about the encounter. Overall, the price, service, and quality don’t reflect well in my opinion. I love trying new places, but unfortunately this one isn’t worth a second visit for me. Maybe someone else will appreciate it more than I did. Date of Visit: 5/26/22

My family and I were in town and found this spot. I grew up near the water so I don't play around with my fish or macaroni. The fish was cooked perfectly and the macaroni was almost as good as my granny. Nobody is better that granny! Hennessy wings are fire!

You haven’t had henny wings until you try them at Big Vo’s anytime I’m in the area I’m pulling up and telling them to make mine extra wet plus a togo order for later that night lol. They never fail me. This is the one!!!!!!!!!!
Great food, complemented with fantastic service. Next time I’m in Chicago I will make sure to stop by again!

Thought it would be a good meal but we were pretty disappointed. When you get out of the car and you do not smell barbecue then it's probably not going to be very good; means the pit's not cooking fresh. The BBQ chicken was the driest I've ever eaten. Couple of guys got the beans and coleslaw and sounds like they were pretty good. Had the collard greens but no pepper sauce in sight; sounds like folks up this way don't even know what that is. On a positive note, great people, friendly and had that great Southern hospitality.
