I was in Tampa for the weekend and ran across this place while searching for barbecue chicken. The…read morereviews on Google Maps are what originally made me look twice. People were not only raving about how good the food was, but the hospitality and customer service. As a former service industry veteran, great customer service goes a long way in my book. First of all, I actually had the pleasure of meeting Mel (the owner). He's so sweet and he takes great pride in his business. He already had a line when I pulled up around 2pm on a Saturday, but he kept it moving. BBQ chicken is my go to at any cookout, so l ordered Mel's chicken dinner. It comes with two sides, but l added an extra side bc we eat leftovers over here. The chicken was cooked perfectly and he gave me a couple of sauces to try. (Highly recommend asking him about his homemade sauces!) The sides were also amazing. My favorites were the baked beans and the collard greens. He uses smoked turkey in his greens like my dad does and I cleaned my bowl. If you're ever looking for BBQ in Tampa, FL remember to look for Big Mel in the yellow food truck on Nebraska Avenue. He offers catering as well, so be sure to reach out and support your local businesses!

The food there was absolutely delicious I had no complaints everything was perfect the chicken,…read more ribs, pulled pork, turkey legs,sausages, dirty rice, baked beans, coleslaw, macaroni and cheese and my favorite his collard greens with smoked turkey legs, go get you a dinner or two, I promise you won't be disappointed

I am very picky about my BBQ and coleslaw and Mac and cheese. The slaw had the perfect balance between sweet and tangy. The back and cheese is made from scratch and perfectly seasoned and not soupy like some places.y only negative is that I was craving some good collard greens, but they had sold out. A definite place to put on your visit list. They are only open Tuesday through Saturday, so get it when you can. Oh, also, the staff was so friendly, even saying, "good by love", when I left.

The greens weren't bad, but they were just greens, no meat whatsoever, which I was under the impression it would have some kind of meat in it from other reviews ‍ The ribs were good, but I am not a fan of keeping the membrane on. All in all, I think you get a good value here. The staff was extremely friendly as well.

Got the 3 meat plate, rib and brisket (x2) with potato salad and coleslaw for around $30 (Beer was $5.75). Potato salad and coleslaw were good. The meats were dry, even the brisket, and had no taste.

While visiting in the area, we happened to see this barbecue truck on the side of the road and at first I was a little skeptical, but after going up and talking to the guys working, I just knew this was going to be a hit. First of all the seafood rice alone was almost $20, the guy working explained that it was well worth it and once I got home to try it I definitely understood why. There was some type of celery, olives, carrots in the seafood rice something that I had never experienced before, but it just gave it so much a flavor. The ribs were super tender and delicious, and in the sauce was delicious as well. I can't wait to get back down to the area so I can check this place out again.

There was no sign or arrows to direct guest (i was not the only first time guest) on where to order. One customer told me she was there for more than 40 minutes and no one told her that she had to go up to a small 3 x 3 box in the wall and order her food BEFORE shifting over to the grand window where you make your payment and confirm your food order. Once we figured out that process together It was still a pretty long wait for the food to be served (Togo). Please please order yourself a banana pudding, red velvety cake slice AND. A strawberry crunch cake slice. do yourself the favor. The desserts were PHENOMENAL. I ordered a rib dinner which was pretty tasty. I was not a huge fan of the Mac and cheese but the ribs were tender and flavorful alongside the desserts!

Today I had a very disappointing experience at Kojak Restaurant while picking up an order for a…read morecustomer. This review is not about the food--it is about the treatment I received from a staff member. From the moment I entered the restaurant, the waitress appeared to have an attitude toward me. As an immigrant with a Jamaican accent, I sometimes have to repeat myself, but customer service employees should remain patient and professional when dealing with people from different backgrounds and cultures. During the interaction, I felt disrespected and insulted. The situation escalated to the point where the police were called. The responding officers were respectful, professional, and understanding. I admit that I became upset and responded with inappropriate language after feeling provoked. The restaurant business is about serving the public, and the public consists of people from many different races, cultures, and nationalities. Every customer and delivery driver deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. I believe Kojak Restaurant should invest more in customer service training and emphasize professionalism, respect, and cultural awareness for all employees. No one should feel unwelcome or disrespected when entering a business. I hope management takes concerns like this seriously and works to create a more welcoming environment for everyone.
