    Overstuffed Pulled Pork Sandwich
    Deana B.

    5 Stars! DRIVE HERE IMMEDIATELY! Not only will you be welcomed with the biggest smile in Florida, but you will also enjoy THE best BBQ (and potato salad!) ANYWHERE! Not a BBQ fan? Cool! GET THE GROUPER! Honestly, can't say enough great things about this man and his Food Truck!

    After reading so many great reviews on our vacation, I drove a couple of towns over to give it a try. It has the food truck set up, which was okay with me since some of the tastiest food I've had has been from food trucks. I ordered my husband the rib plate, which came with 2 sides for $12. You really can't beat the price and the food smelled so good. I don't eat ribs but the smoky smell had me tempted. I ordered the blue crabs, which are sold by the dozen for $24. There were several people ordering the crabs so I knew then that they would have some decent weight to them or I wouldn't have seen so many customers during my short visit. The food was everything we expected and more. Not only was the food great but the service was outstanding!

    JABOS'S Barbecue excellent pulled pork sandwiches.

    Stopped by this place by chance have been looking for some good barbecue since I moved to springhill. I ordered the pulled pork sandwiches and they did not disappoint. It was moist and full of flavor and a very generous serving. Also ordered a pound of the prime rib unfortunately for us we found it to be dry and not very flavorful. But will give it another shot will definitely go back they have gumbo and a selection of seafood. We will be going back to try a lot of the other items on their menu. So if you're in the area stop by and try something.

    Normally I get the philly, however, I was in the mood for some good BBQ chicken. I had the BBQ chicken dinner which came with 2 sides and was only $8.95. It was super delicious!!

    Just had the best food of my entire life! Today I had the grouper nuggets, potato salad, and corn! It was to DIE for!

    The owner is Willy, he is the sweetest man you will ever meet! He's the owner and chef and his food is the best I've ever had in the universe! The ribs are fall off the bone, insane perfection! The Philly cheese steaks are to DIE for, seriously! And all of the seafood is amazing and you will not regret anything you order!

    Grass Fed Beef Burger...the bun was soooooo good!

    I'm from Kansas City Missouri and so must Mr Jabo. His ribs are the best. BBQ sauce is a little tangy. The best bbq in Florida!

    My wife and I make it out to Crystal River for her orthodontist visits. For this visit, we resolved…read moreto seek out Peck's Old Port Cove for lunch. First of all, the drive out there can take some time, especially if you get stuck behind a driver who seemed to almost stop at every hairpin turn...not just slow down but crawl to almost a stop. There aren't a lot of spots where you can legally pass so we just had to hope they get off the road or take a turn before we get to our destination. As luck would have it, they turned right into Peck's Old Port Cove. Doh! Upon entering, we requested outdoor seating and the hostess gave us a couple of menus and two sets of silverware and instructed to head out and find a table we liked. We secured a table right by the water. After reading reviews and checking out the menu, my wife and I both ordered the almond crusted fish with lobster cream sauce and with fries, cole slaw and hush puppies. Service was a bit slow but we weren't in a hurry and the views and refreshing breeze more than made up for it. While waiting for our food, we were served some complimentary fried string onions to munch on. The fish was prepared well. Flaky white fish (which we were told was farm-raised swai, aka basa which Google indicated is related to catfish but didn't taste like it) in a nice almond breading and a sauce that perfectly complemented the fish. The cole slow and hush puppies were also good. My wife and I thought the portions were generous and we wouldn't be able to finish it...but we ended up part of the clean plate club as we ate all of it. We're so glad we made it out here...good food and good ambience. Lunch for 2 with tip came out to just over $46. NOTE: We drove out to Ozello Community Park after reading that it's a worthwhile visit. Nope! Save yourself the time...nothing to see there.

    Started the evening off with Gator bites/Cajun style AMAZING…read more We had the Fisherman platter fried with coleslaw and cheese grits. ALISA R. was our waitress, she is bubbly and knowledgeable about the restaurant and it's food, very attentive TY. Very nicely decorated and looks great after the remodel! Do not miss this place you will regret it.
