    Always good food and friendly service. I like the option of calling ahead and picking up at the window.

    Friday night steaks are the best. They have the best slaw I've ever eaten. One of my favorites!

    Brisket was dry but lucky their barbeque sauce is good. If you're going to eat here just buy a bucket of coleslaw, it's really good.

    The BBQ baked potato is to die for. Meats are good and sides are good also. Great small town place to eat.

    Simmons Bar-Be-Cue - Loaded bbq potato with pork

    I was pretty pleasantly surprised with Simmons! I often find that drive-through only bbq is very…read morehit or miss, but this place is a hit for me. Like I said, this operation is drive-through only, so all meals are made to-go. I got mine shortly after work for a late lunch. City harbor is a short drive away, so I toodled over there for a view of the water while I ate. The drive through line moved quickly enough. The menu has bbq, the less fancy bbq sides (beans, slaw, chips), family pack meals for a variety of crowd sizes, as well as loaded potatoes and nachos. I selected a pork loaded baked potato with a Diet Pepsi (iirc - don't think it was Coke). I think my lunch ~$12, which isn't too bad for the serving sizes. The lady at the drive through was polite and welcoming. My pork tater was quite large and came with liquidy butter, cheese, and dollops of sour cream and bacon bits on top. The bacon bits, while the pre-packaged salad garnish kind, are a pleasant surprise - you don't often get those on bbq taters without asking. The potato was cooked nicely, still warm and soft. I genuinely enjoyed the Que, enough so that I'd get it on a sandwich or on a plate without the goodness of a potato there as backup, lol. I don't like bbq sauce on my taters but I did dip a small piece of pork in the cup they gave me. It's a more vinegar based sauce, but it had enough sweetness to it that I still enjoyed it. Thanks for a quick, easy, and tasty lunch!

    I ordered and paid for a large pork sandwich abd a side of green beans. I have never seen a smaller…read morepulled pork sandwich. Had I ordered a small, it would make sense. But this was tiny. And the beans equally tiny. Yes, the sandwich tasted fine. There was little to no sauce and a dab of slaw. After reading good reviews, pretty disappointing.

They really put their own millennial style to it and have ruined the taste of everything. At first I didn't even know they had new ownership, I hadn't been in a while and decided to come and try the new location out because I was visiting home and missed the food from here. I decided to get a little bit of everything so I could reminisce over the flavor I loved. Instead I was met with very dry chicken, and smaller pieces too for more money, and the jojos were my favorite but now they're kinda soggy? And I decided to buy a BBQ slider just to try it because I mean their name is literally BARBECUE PLACE, and it was the worst thing on the plate. I mean it wasn't bad but it wasn't good either, it's just default, bland, basic food. I will say the fries were good which is the only reason why I left 2 stars and not 1. Also I ordered their signature sauce but it turns out you can just get it for free in the restaurant so that was awesome having to spend a little extra money on something I didn't need to. - Rest in Peace Barbecue Place, you had a special place in my heart.

The quality has dropped below what I'm willing to pay for. Nothing tastes the same except the Jo sauce. Every single chicken tender they gave the TWO of us was half the size of what they used to be. The jojos were always large, now just the butt end of the tiny potatoes. I don't know why u would buy a businesses good name that had been open for decades and ruin it completely in a very short time because u are cheap. My family won't be back. We paid $20 for a chicken snack, a chicken plate and 1 drink! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!

One piece of advice, is avoid the baked beans. They're a bit overly sweet. And to me baked beans should have some bacon in them or something like that. These disappointed a bit. But the barbecue is phenomenal. And to be honest, the thing that really stole the show was at noon they play the national anthem and everybody stands to face the flag, I love the patriotic atmosphere and you can tell that this place is run by people who care. Not do they only put pride in their food, but you can tell that they have pride in their country and I'm coming back just for that reason alone!

This is the best BBQ pork that I've eaten at a restaurant, succulent, delicate, smokey, flavorful, esthetically appealing, and it makes me wish that we had something like this in the Atlanta area. I love fried okra, when it's cooked properly, and with that comes critical feedback; their version reminds me of how my grandmother made her fried okra (and that's the standard I use to measure all others by.) The mixed greens had a slight hint of smoky ham hock, probably could have benefitted from a little more salt, but I understand that some people have to watch their sodium intake so I bet the restaurant leaves that up to the customer. Our server was a delight, very smiley and cheery, welcoming, etc. Inside, it feels like they have preserved history and married it to classy modernity. The next time I visit Albertville, this will be on the to-do list. Keep up the good work, folks!

We paid several hundred dollars upfront for a funeral lunch. The agreement? They deliver and set up by 2:30 PM. The reality? They heroically informed us the day before that they took another order, so delivery was no longer an option. No apology, no refund -- just "come get it yourself." When we arrived? The order wasn't ready. Food was missing. The banana pudding? Basically banana soup -- completely inedible. And the grand finale? The tea, proudly served in repurposed mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce containers. Spoiler: the tea tasted exactly like Worcestershire sauce. No apology. No accountability. No effort to make it right. Just bad service, bad attitudes, and condiment-flavored beverages. If you want your special occasion catered by a business that walks hard... away from professionalism and customer service, Tim's Walk Hard BBQ is your spot. We walked hard... straight to another store to buy drinks and salvage what was left of the afternoon.
