    Large ribs, collards, green beans and hush puppies.
    Jacqueline W.

    My son was driving down memory lane and he stopped at this place that used to be a bait spot. When I saw "BBQ" I had to try it. I was very glad we did. The prices were good, and the food was tasty. The ribs were very tender and the sauce was delicious. The greens were meaty and hush puppies were crunchy but not dry. The service was excellent. Whenever I'm in the area I'll stop by again.

    This place is off the beaten path but a must visit dinner spot. After hearing great things about it we finally decided to make the trip and I am so happy we did. This will be a date night spot for us from here on out. I got the Brisket Sliders with Potato Salad (my photo was after eating most of it because I literally could not wait- the phone did not eat first in this case lol). The brisket was delicious and full of flavor. I got the coleslaw on my sliders (they gave me the option to have it with or without) and then I added the Pappy sauce (a tangy mustard type sauce) to them and it was AMAZING. The potato salad was good but I ended up getting too full and took the rest of it to go! My husband and mom tried the Brisket Grilled Cheese which was on their daily special menu and they really enjoyed it. They dipped it in the Pappy sauce as well! Staff were super friendly and attentive to all of the customers. It felt very personal and homey. There was plenty of seating inside and it was well spaced out so you can enjoy your meal with your table and not worry about being too close to others. I highly recommend you try this place! You won't regret it!

    Best brisket in eastern North Carolina. Delicious traditional southern style sides. Family owned and very friendly. Highly recommended.

    This place is 5 out of 5 strong!! After living in Jacksonville for years I can't believe I have never found this gem. If you're a bbq fan you have to check this place out as soon as possible. I got a 3 item sampler brisket, pulled pork and ribs. The sampler come with two sides I got Mac n cheese and potato salad! The brisket melted in you mouth and had amazing flavor! The best brisket I have had so far in my life hands down! The ribs just feel off the bone and was so flavorful with the dry rub on them. The pulled pork was also very good! Not to wet but not dry in bit! Tasted amazing mixes with there homemade "pappy" sauce. Mac n cheese was definitely homemade and tasted amazing. Potato salad had bits of eggs and dill in I it bring out great flavor. And if the food wasn't enough the sweet tea was on point! The thing that made this place worth while is the owners! They are very sweet and kind. Always have a smile on their face and very easy to talk too and always checked in to make sure everything was to your liking! I would recommend this place to every single person that like bbq or that has never tried to try this first! You won't be upset ... well you might cuz your wallet will wear thin for going back all the time! Enjoy this gem!

    Delicious and family friendly. Very good brisket. Coleslaw alone is worth the trip. Love their unique sauces.

    Delicious food and great service! The kind of place you'd see on Guy Fieri's show. I had the brisket sandwich and Mac and cheese. Yummmmm

    We were seated quickly. The food was amazing I had salmon that was cooked perfectly. My husband…read morehad the crab cakes. The service was excellent. Our servers and others checked on us frequently and cleared the table when necessary

    Kistler Chardonnay, and a canned beet salad?…read more I wrote a review of Boro about 8 years ago, it may be interesting to go out and compare the two. I have to say my wife and I are confused by our latest dinner experience more than anything. We could not get into Il Cigno Italiano, a fantastic restaurant (I recommend to the eggplant meatballs), who suggested we visit their "sister site" Boro. We love Il Cigno and thought, wow this going to be great. I did not realize the two were related under one organization. Like all my reviews, I try very hard to keep drama and non factual commentary out as much as possible. I focus on setting expectations based on my experience. Ambiance - Boro has changed since we were there last. The bar was walled off from the main dining more than before. The walls were empty with no art or really anything... pretty sterile...not a romantic setting, but more of a family setting. In fairness, they may be remodeling, I did not ask. One last critical item, we were sitting under a HVAC wall unit, that leaked on us through the meal. I would have asked to move but we moved to the far end of the booth, it was fine then. The outdoor patio is still nice though, and is fun to go watch bands and relax listening to music. We do this frequently as we are "locals". Service - our waitress was attentive, very nice and did check on us. The hostess was great, and was able to seat us right away. So service was pretty spot on. ....except, I am no longer paying credit card service fees that are not verbally noted when I sit down (small print on the menu does not count). These fees, have been added as "Covid era" item to help restaurants. I had no issue with it then, however, we are not in Covid anymore. I run a business and feel this is a cost of doing business and needs to be in the pricing (more helpful for customers) or absorbed. 3% is well over $200 per year for our eating out budget. Food - this is where I left scratching my head. My wife and I both ordered the Beet Salad. It read on the menu it had arugula, butter nut squash and a combination of greens. When it arrived, there was very little arugula, very sparse squash and it had canned beets on it. The greens were very scarce, more of a garnish than a salad amount. At best it looked like it was a small side salad, not a dinner salad. It was not a good price point for what we received in my opinion. However, the Tuna Takati was nicer for $15 and much closer to an Il Cigno level of offering. Another strange dynamic was they offered Kistler Chardonnay, which runs for about $90 a bottle. It is a world class wine, but Im not sure how well it matches the restaurant, or the level and quality of the food we were severed. In summary, if I was the owner of Il Cigno I would be hesitant to send folks to Boro who may looking for an Il Congo experience. In fairness, I did not ask about decor or the HVAC. However, the food is not at par for the pricing or the quality I would expect after eating at Il Cigno.
