The smell of smoke hits you as soon as you step out of the car--which is always a great sign. We were greeted and seated quickly, and our waitress was attentive from the start. She walked us through the highlights and shared a few of her personal favorites, which was a nice touch. We kicked things off with the Oyster Rockefeller. The oysters themselves were nearly perfect, though the dish leaned a bit salty. Still, a solid start. The crab soup was good as well--also slightly on the salty side, which could just come down to personal preference. Now to the burnt ends--one of my go-to orders anywhere. I'm happy to say these didn't disappoint. Like others have mentioned, the brisket was a touch dry but still impressively tender and full of flavor. The BBQ nachos were messy in the best way and packed with flavor--definitely a hit, especially with my son. As for the slaw, we were told it would be "wet," but it's actually on the drier side, so keep that in mind depending on your preference. Overall, a really enjoyable stop with good food and friendly service. We'd definitely come back again.

The food itself needs to be talked about as well. The beans were delicious! The mac and cheese could use some help along with the brisket. It was cut thick and it was also more on the drier side. However, the pulled chicken and ribs saved the day with plenty of flavor and moisture. I'd go back for seconds and thirds.

For the food, the brisket cheesesteak, chili, and chorizo mac and cheese were my favorites, they were very flavorful. However, I do wish the cheesesteak had some onions and peppers in it, if that was an option, then I would have definitely added some into my cheesesteak. The loaded grilled cheese had a lot more meat than cheese, and was very sweet which was a bit unexpected but it tasted good overall. The empanada was part of a restaurant attached to Annabelle's and taste-wise, the empanada was ok. I did enjoy this place a lot and would recommend stopping by while on a trip in OC!

We picked this place for dinner on our trip to OC. The service started off great, we were greeted…read moreby the hostess and another woman who were super nice and welcoming. We ate in the dining room which was 1/2 the Mexican restaurant and half the BBQ fare. The wait was much less than originally expected. We were seated and asked for our drink orders which were good My husband ordered the wings (very good) and brisket sandwich which was just meh, it arrived cold and lackluster, missing the expected flavor of BBQ brisket. The fries were good and the BBQ seasoning for fries was equally good. One daughter ordered a plain quesadilla and ate it but did not love it. The other ordered a mushroom quesadilla was very good but she did not really like the pork and cheese empanada. I tasted it and it was decent but way too greasy. The guacamole was very good (lots of oil in the bottom of the bowl) and the chips were crispy and very well seasoned. I ordered the carne asada special and it was delicious. Here's where the service went down hill. The carne asada did not need any sauce but I wanted to try the BbQ sauces on the table. The first one I tried, when I squeezed the bottle the entire top came off (it was not threaded and closed properly) and the whole bottle of sauce poured out over my entire meal. I took another tray from the quesadilla and moved my steak and rice to it. When the runner came over the clear the empty plates i told him, and advised the bottle needed to be refilled. He barely apologized and said he'd be back to fill the Bottle and took the sauce soaked plate. I then mentioned it to our server who simply said "sorry about that" We were looking forward to the twist ice cream but they were out of vanilla. So we left and went to another local creamery. We probably won't be back here if ever return to OC.

I wasn't able to make it in time for dinner so I miseed out. When the opportunity came for a day trip to Williamsburg for shopping and lunch this month, this was the first place I suggested. I was blown away by how crowded it was. The parking lot was full and the line was very long. I was a little disheartened by how long it was, but it moved SO quickly. The wait gave us time to look at the menu. We ended up ordering 2 hotdog kids meals and 2 adults shared the combo dinner. We also ordered 2 sides of cornbread. The kids did not eat their food. We all shared the combo dinner and it was MORE than enough. Drinks are separate and come with cups you can take home and reuse. The cups and cornbread were my favorite things about the restaurant. I wasnt able to try all of the sides, so we plan to go back to sample other food options such as the brisket and collards.

The beef brisket and pulled chicken were both solid, but the standouts were the ribs and the pulled pork.  The meat on ribs was tender and juicy and slipped right off the bone!  The pulled pork was moist and the texture was soft.  The already delicious meats were enhanced by their original and hot bbq sauces! The cole slaw was not too sweet or sour and was just right...the salt potatoes were hearty and were nestled in a pool of melted butter.  Additionally, the corn bread served as a nice dessert. This is the perfect place to fix your bbq meat jones!
