    I just want to say that I am writing this review due to my SINCERE LOVE for Popeyes…read more On Friday May 28th 2021 at 6:30pm I visited this location in the drive through. I will start by saying that the food was absolutely fresh and delicious. What was not amazing was the customer service. In fact it was the worst experience I have had at a Popeyes and like I said I love Popeyes. First the young girl at the window did not even ask routine questions like do you want your chicken mild or spicy? What kind of sauce do you want? I ordered a sweet tea separate from my meal and she didn't even ask what size. Then I get to the pickup window and she appears to be too concerned with what time she is getting off to attend to us. It is 6:30 and the manager told her she gets off at 11 so clearly she just got there. she forgets to give me my drink and I had to tell her what I ordered. I asked for sweet heat sauce because she never asked what kind of sauce I wanted and she states without looking we don't have sweet heats. I drive off luckily I had planned to eat in the car so we parked in the parking lot only two realize that instead of the 6 piece two can dine tenders I ordered I was given a two piece chicken meal. I get back in the drive through line and bring this to her attention. At this point a older female manager grabs the bag and throws away the two piece and gives me the correct meal. I ask the cashier again are you sure you don't have any sweet heat? And she reaches down to exactly where all the sauces are and throws the sweet heat in the bag even though she previously stated they didn't have any. So now we park and eat food is good. I save my strawberry pie for the drive home only to take a bite into it about 15 minutes away to realize it was apple and not the strawberry that I ordered.

    I visited this location twice. The first time was very very…read moredisappointing. The food was good but the employees were not friendly and speak very broken english. Difficult to understand. I had to ask for someone that I could communicate with, but that never happened. So as my grandson asked to try it again, (which was a few months later) we had the same experience. We could not understand what she was saying. They were communicating to each other in Spanish. They never asked if I wanted crispy or regular nor did she ask if I wanted dark meat or white meat. The wurst was yet to come. I watched as she put the French fries in the little holder they have, then she dropped the bag on the floor. She picked them up, went around the back a minute or so later, she came back with a the same amount of fries in the fryer bucket and then put them in another bag. Usually when they fry up fries there are more than one order. Any how, I wasn't sure of what was happening until I tried one of the fries. They were not hot at all. Coming out of the fryer they should have been very hot. When I told them they were not hot, they told me I had to wait 3 minutes till they made some more. So what they did was drop the fries , picked them off the floor and were giving them back to me to eat. I will never, ever go back to that location and are warning all my friends and family.

    I've eaten at Brothers BBQ a handful of times and I feel confident enough at this point to tell you…read moreabout it. Now this is just my opinion, so don't get crazy. Compared to other bbq in the area, I believe Brothers is a winner. The food quality is great, and techniques of prep and cooking are perfectly mastered. The brisket has a flavorful crust and it breaks apart with a fork. The baked beans have all the right stuff to make them excellent. Baked Mac and cheese is BAKED. The chicken falls off the bone and smoked perfectly. Candied yams are perfect and you can actually taste the butter that you're SUPPOSED to bake into it, (they're the only ones who make it right) in my opinion. We ordered an appetizer of "burnt bacon ends", and so much flavor, and fall apart with a fork. The cocktails were potent, so beware . Did I say enough about the food? Even the service was great. One of the owners even swung by to see if we needed anything. If you haven't already gone, go. It's a nice relaxed atmosphere, and sometimes has live entertainment. You'll love it.

    Yelps rating scale: 1 star: Not good…read more 2 stars: Could've been better 3 stars: OK 4 Stars: Good 5 Stars: Great A Taste of North Carolina in the City: High Smoke, Mixed Hospitality If you are looking for authentic barbecue with roots straight out of North Carolina, reportedly run by three brothers from the state, though we didn't spot them during our visit, this spot has the craft down, and it is definitely one of the better BBQ places I have been in NY. Still, it misses a few foundational beats when it comes to true Southern hospitality and comfort. Atmosphere & First Impressions From the outside, you might easily mistake the restaurant for being closed. The windows make it tough to see in, and on a rainy day with the outdoor seating empty, it feels a bit hidden away. You are greeted by a wonderfully comfortable waiting area featuring plush sofas and a seating bench. I also really appreciated seeing such a diverse crowd of customers dining here, which is especially refreshing to see for this area. Be warned before you walk through the door: bring a sweater. They do not skimp on the air conditioning; they blast it! On the positive side, the bathrooms are immaculate while keeping that traditional, classic BBQ joint feel. Seating & Service When we arrived, I requested a quieter area due to sensory sensitivities. We waited a bit and were ultimately seated right next to the noisy bar. It looked like there was a cozy little nook past the fireplace that would have been ideal, but it had a laptop sitting on it. Even for a Sunday supper, keeping areas like that closed off when a guest needs a quieter space felt like a missed opportunity. Our waitress was working double duty as a bartender, so she was straight to business. She was efficient enough to give us what we needed, but lacking that warm, conversational touch. At the end of the meal, we weren't thanked for coming in but told to drive safely. We were accidentally overcharged for a fountain soda we never ordered. While the waitress corrected it when pointed out, there was an absolute lack of an apology. Taking responsibility is part of the package. The Meal: Highs and Lows The Cornbread: Starting off, the meal kicks off with complimentary cornbread, but it comes with a couple of caveats. Depending on how you were raised, cornbread camps are deeply divided on sweetness. This version is very sweet, crumbly, and honey forward. It is almost tasting like a boxed Jiffy honey mix with some extras. Unfortunately, it was cold and served with ice cold, solid butter that wouldn't spread. If you want more, it's $2 a piece, a detail they really ought to mention upfront rather than leaving it as a surprise. It is nice that they give it complimentary but they are banking on you consuming it and when you get your BBQ you want more but have to pay. It would be nice to be upfront about this. The Meats: The barbecue itself delivers. The meat is smoked nicely. We sampled the pulled pork, brisket, chicken, and sausage, paired with table-side salt, pepper, and just one single type of BBQ sauce available on the table. The Sides & Fixins: The baked beans were good, but the sides could have been much hotter. The collard greens had a noticeable crunch from the stems and consisted strictly of greens without any pieces of pork or turkey mixed in. I liked that it was not too salty for my liking. As for the mac and cheese, it lacked that signature baked cheese crust on top as seen in photos online. Visiting around 5:30pm on a Sunday evening left us wondering if we caught the tail end of things or were served leftover portions. Tableware & Details The tableware leaves room for improvement. Aside from the metal meat trays, everything is served on melamine (plastic) plates rather than real ceramic and you are each given a cloth napkin. Furthermore, guests are only given butter knives, and the cutlery could definitely be elevated to better enjoy the experience - especially to ensure proper access to napkins for a messy barbecue meal. Drinks & Hospitality The Sweet Tea: The sweet tea is sweet and good. However, you are not offered a refill here. For a Southern style spot, not offering a complimentary or even low cost refill on sweet tea felt neglectful and impolite. It's a small touch of hospitality that goes a long way. With roots that spread throughout the south, I have not experienced this even consuming BBQ at home in NY. Other Drinks: Cocktails run around $16 a person (which made neighboring tables wince a bit at $32 for two drinks), but I thoroughly enjoyed a cold Shiner beer straight from Texas. My beer was $12 tall boy and COLD. Ultimately, despite a few missteps with the sides and service, they have the smoking technique down well. True Southern hospitality is about making folks feel welcome, warm, and genuinely cared for from the moment they step in to the moment they leave, and bringing more of that heart to the dining room would elevate this place immensely.
