We ordered out and it was the absolute worst food that we’ve ate in a long time. It was just nasty!

Everything was incredibly good: the food, the service. Red BBQ slaw is out of this world! Plus their signature sauces. Can’t ask for anything more!

The red slaw is incredible. Perfect! It's on par with Lexington BBQ red slaw! Everything about this place: the food, the service, etc was at 100%.

We ordered two pork plates last night. It was AMAZING!!! First of all, I have to compliment on how beautiful the food looked when I opened the box. I loved it was placed on top of the paper and the food was arranged so nice. Not like some restaurants that plop it in. There was so much food also! Everything was exactly like I ordered. I absolutely loved the fries! They had a tasty seasoning which was so good! They were fresh and very warm ! The pork was so tender and moist. Not dry or crusty. We ordered about 30 minutes before closing, because I hadn't paid attention to the time. I wasn't expecting food this good so late to be served. Hats off to everyone there! We are always treated kindly and the so good, I had to share this. I'm recovering from a total knee replacement and haven't been able to eat much. Last night I ate plenty !! Thank youTammie K

It was first time trying this place. And it was AWFUL! I got the bbq chicken plate with potato salad, and baked beans. The bbq sauce itself was so sour and was not appetizing. The chicken was so dry and hard to swallow. The potato salad tasted sour as well. The beans were okay. I definitely won’t be returning there.

Food good, service was good, dinning area clean but bathrooms need serious attention. Have been there twice and bathrooms have sticky floors and plumbing is leaking from men

Ordered through doordash and was very, very disappointed. None of our wings had barely any flavor, like almost NONE. The sides were okay, but the meat is what I'm paying for. This place USED to be pretty good. Not sure what happened. We won't be coming back unfortunately.

My family has been eating at Ole Carolina BBQ as long as I can remember, but unfortunately those days are over! The food is horrible now! Do not go here expecting it to be the same restaurant we all loved!

Got the Friday lunch special (3 tenders, fries & coleslaw). Tenders were delicious and rolled in sweet heat bbq sauce, fries seasoned just right and some of the best coleslaw. Pretty good for a $8 lunch special. I also love the grilled chicken salad and ribs here but wanted to try something different. Banana pudding is awesome! Thanks for a great lunch ya'll!❤?

Had this for lunch today. First time there. Awful! Waste of a 30 dollar lunch. Took 25 minutes to get drinks. Place was empty. Food was terrible. BBQ was re heated mush. Potato salad was out of a store tub. Mac and cheese was store bought. Great location. Great potential poorly executed to say the least.

I'm giving a very generous 2 stars. This place is not the same as it used to be. The Mac and cheese uses to be the best and looked homemade, now it tastes and looks like boxed mac and cheese. I ordered online delivery and I could tell the food was different from how i received it. I ordered a pound of brisket and ended up with a clear pint of Shredded brisket (i didnt want shredded) that was dry and and tasted like canned beef jerky. From how it was served, it was hard to eat without a plate. The meal didn't even come with BBQ sauce and the okra was straight fried stems. The only redeeming thing was the sweet potato casserole. Very disappointing.

We used to love this place got a take out order tonight food was so gross! Called to ask if they had changed owners. Yes! I knew it different owners. BBQ was so fatty and grease we couldn’t eat it! Beans was good! Potatoe salad tasted spoiled. The slaw tasted like cabbage no seasoning worst food I’ve had in a long time $40 down the drain now to figure out what’s for dinner now

We were wondering if the BBQ would taste good. Oh my Mylanta! The ribs were tasty. The barbecue is surprisingly good. Oh my Lord, the sweet potato casserole added 10lba that Ì didn't need but enjoyed every inch it gave me. Folks, the amount of food you get is downright southern style feeding. I saved the best for last. The hushpuppies you get instead of bread will have your mouthwatering. Believe me when I say this is a worth the visit place!

Got the salad with the barbecue but the barbecue was dry. Didn't care for the barbecue sauce. The waitress was pretty much
