    Stopped her on our way though. Brisket was delicious. Friendly staff. We will definitely stop in again if we come through Jena.

    It's on their main road. Not tucked away somewhere. So if you're driving through, you won't miss it.

    Driving through, and asked for directions. Asked the local sheriff in town and he stated our destination is passed the "brisket house". I don't think I've ever heard someone tell me directions by using land marks rather than street names. But I guess when you're in a small town that's what you do. Needless to say we did miss it. Turned around, and it was next to a burger shop. Googled it and it showed it having a red roof. I knew then I was at the right spot. I'd come back again, and try their ribs and other sides they had to offer. Everything else we had; brisket, chicken, sausage, fried okra was good. Was in a rush to get back on the road didn't get a chance to take pic of food and inside.

    I had 2 hours for lunch the other day, and headed there after court. The buffet ($12 I think) is completely, and totally worth it. Good ole Southern food with fried chicken, fried catfish, cornbread, huge wedges, peach cobbler, banana pudding, okra, corn, mashed potatoes, gravy, rice, a huge salad section, etc. I had 2 full plates of mostly catfish, and other stuff. Next time I'll have the chicken. 100% recommended if in the area.

    My first helping. Absolutely delicious.

    Best BBQ within 100 miles. Brisket and sausage are great. Fried fish is great. Onion rings, etc. Absolutely great food.

    I picked the sides from the buffet table and since I wanted some greens to stick to keto, the young lady offered me the salad bar.

    Koal’s Bar-B-Que - 1/2 chicken plate with green beans and potato salad

    Koal’s Bar-B-Que

    In Alexandria for business and came to Koal's based off of a recommendation…read more To be completely honest, I am a little biased regarding BBQ as I feel Texas has the best BBQ, but Koal's might offer the best brisket I've ever eaten. The brisket was smoked perfectly: it was juicy, flavorful, and had great smoke flavor and nice smoke ring. I also went with the Mac & cheese and potato salad. The Mac & cheese was pretty good, although the potato salad was a little bland. The service was impeccable! The staff we encountered were all helpful and very friendly and the restaurant is very clean and well-kept. Make it a point to visit Koal's BBQ, I guarantee you won't be disappointed! Two toes-two thumbs and a Mile High Salute for Koal's BBQ! Happy eating, my foodies!

    I've been hearing so much about this place so I had to make a trip and see what Louisiana barbecue…read moreis about. First, the menu is amazing. From steaks to Smokehouse salads (not seeing this as often as we used to at bbq restaurants) to brisket potatoes, there is something here for everyone. I'm happy to see some classics (the Wedge salad and the bbq plate with 2 sides) as well as some unique dishes (the PB & J sandwich - pulled pork, sliced brisket, and jalapeno pepper Jack sausage and the prime brisket potato casserole, two things I want to try next). When I review barbecue I have my go-to items. On this visit I got the 1/2 chicken with potato salad and green beans, traditional but a great way to understand Koal's pov. I love the rub and smoke on this chicken and it was so tender, my dining partners took note for their next visit. I loved the potato salad, too. It was well mixed with mustard and pickles (the right way!) and the texture was perfect. No big hunks of celery or onion to dominate the flavor. The green beans were perfect enough to eat as a solo dish but the bonus for me was the yeast roll. I'm so used to white bread in Texas, I really enjoyed having a buttery yeast roll to tuck my chicken and sauce in. Finally, I would come back for the homemade pickles alone! I've never eaten so many pickles in a sitting and the manager was happy to accommodate. My guests had the beef ribs, brisket, and potato casserole and worked hard to clear their plate but the portions here are generous and we all ended up with a snack for later. This place is a true find with a nice sized dining room, great food, and excellent service. If you're smart, you'll save room for the bread pudding or at least order it to go. Delicious!
