    What was left of our dinner (not much)
    Kristen H.

    This was just the place we needed to find. We were on a 12-hour road trip back from vacation and wanted something new but also that all of the kids would eat. We stumbled across this place on Yelp, and I'm so glad we did! Not a single complaint from us or any of the kids, and we may as well have licked our plates clean! Service was friendly, the owners were so kind, and we were even blessed with some free banana pudding. Our daughters said it was the best they've ever had and asked if we could stop again when we pass through on our next vacation. We ate it so fast our pictures are only of the scraps and mid-pudding! Don't pass it up; it's amazing!

    Solid BBQ in Downtown Monroe. Jac's fed me on a dark and stormy night. Remember about a month ago when all those tornadoes came through? Well yours truly was in Monroe for work and the weather was awful. But it was time for dinner after a long day and I discovered Jac's on Yelp. By the time I arrived I was soaked and they were nearly out of food. They did have sausage and enough pulled pork to make some nachos on pork rinds. Both were great. I love nachos made with pork rinds even more than when chips are used. Something about the extra pork makes it even better. Service was very friendly and prompt. Will I be back? Absolutely. I hope they have brisket because I can't wait to try theirs.

    Ribs fell off the bone

    Food and atmosphere were both excellent. Prices were also very reasonable. Would definitely eat here again.

    Food was authentic bbq. Staff was great and easy to deal with. Atmosphere and feel of the restaurant was awesome. Everything you want in a bbq joint. I was unsure when I pulled up, because you can usually smell the smokers as soon as you are near a bbq spot. They had the rustic look and feel, so I went for it. I'm glad I did. Everything I tried was very tasty. The brisket had good bark, moisture, and flavor. The pork did as well. The beans had a unique taste, and were well done. The macaroni was tasty. Everything about the experience was super, and I would have no problem coming back again. If you are in the Monroe area, stop in and check them out.

    Ribs, street corn, mac and cheese

    Incredible food. Very sweet staff. Cool vibe in the restaurant too, plenty of inside and outside seating. Got the ribs, street corn, and mac & cheese. Some of the most amazing BBQ I've ever had. Sweet tea was so good too.

    Half BBQ Nachos with pulled pork

    Love the atmosphere. You can eat on the patio. Near Antique Alley. Food tastes great and service is friendly.

    Brisket quesadilla was amazing. The smoked chicken was tender and the pulled pork was great.

    Let me start off by saying I LOVE chicken cracklings. Being from Mississippi, we don't really have…read morespots that sell them fresh like Louisiana does. So whenever I'm passing through, stopping at Billy's Boudin & Cracklin or Randall's Cajun Foods is a must for me. I went to Randall's today. About 5 months ago, I stopped in and the cracklings had clearly been sitting for a while, they were tough. I explained my concern and even offered to pay extra just to have a fresh batch cooked. After going back and forth, they finally made them fresh, and they were exactly what I wanted. Fast forward to today, I called ahead and specifically asked for fresh cracklings. The young man on the phone said okay, no problem. I walk in 5 minutes later and there's already a bag waiting. I asked where they came from and she told me they were cooked that morning. That was an immediate no for me. If I'm spending $21 for a pound, I don't want tough, sitting all day cracklings. Go ahead and put those back. I ended up trying the boudin balls, big mistake. You could tell they had been sitting too. At that point, I didn't even have the energy to go back and forth or ask for a manager. Honestly, it should be a given. This picture is pepper jack boudin ball. Look how dry it is . Needless to say, I won't be back.

    We ordered earlier this week a prime rib to serve 14 people that are due over for our family…read moreChristmas dinner. The order was to be ready today Dec 27th at 10:00 We just got a call at 9:01 and were notified that there is no meat! I want the public to know that this place is not one to order meats from! We now have 4 hours to come up with something for our family. Family members coming in from LA and Shreveport. You certainly can not depend on this place. Also last week we bought a chicken and dumpling casserole that was horrible! Only dark meet was used! Please do not confuse this company with Randall' Captain Averies on Ferrand. The company that gave the poor service is Randall's on Sterlington Road. This owners purchased this place two years are.
