Stopped and grabbed a brisket sandwich and baked beans via the drive thru. It was absolutely amazing! I have tried many of the local places, and Jim n' Nick's by far is better than all of them. The brisket literally melted in my mouth and the finish of the delicious pickles was perfect. The baked beans were just as good. Not sure why I don't think about coming here more, but I will start. read more

This is a nice southern BBQ place. Has plenty of parking. Staff were nice. Place was clean. Had the Mac and cheese brisket balls. They were okay lacked flavor. The sweet tea alcoholic beverage was good and strong. The habanero barbecue wings or tasty in a highly recommend those the mac & cheese was very thick. The coleslaw was not a favorite of mine. It was sweet yet tangy with tons of vinegar and the baked beans were good. The chicken tenders were crispy and definitely use some seasoning and buttermilk, which made them nice. If I come back again, I'll definitely get the wings and the peach drink. I hope that you enjoy as much as I did. read more

This was easily one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences I've had. Almost everything that could go wrong during a visit seemed to go wrong here, and the level of service was nowhere near what I would expect from a restaurant charging customers for food. Let's start with the food: it was COLD. Not fresh, not properly served, not remotely what I expected when ordering a meal. Getting cold food after waiting around is ridiculous and completely defeats the purpose of going out to eat. Then there was the wait. We spent more than 35 MINUTES waiting for something as basic as clean cups. Thirty-five minutes. For cups. At that point, you have to wonder what exactly is happening behind the scenes. And somehow, the dirty dishes were still sitting around while we were waiting. Nothing says "great dining experience" quite like trying to eat while surrounded by dishes that should have already been cleared. The cleanliness was honestly embarrassing. Customers shouldn't have to sit around looking at dirty dishes or wondering whether basic dining supplies are actually going to be cleaned and replaced. What makes this even worse is that none of these are complicated problems. Nobody is asking for some five-star luxury experience. We're asking for HOT FOOD, CLEAN CUPS AND BASIC CLEANLINESS. The service felt completely disorganized. There seemed to be little urgency despite customers waiting and obvious issues needing attention. Imagine paying for a meal, receiving cold food, looking around at dirty dishes, and then waiting more than half an hour for clean cups. That's not a minor inconvenience. That's a complete failure of the basic dining experience. Being busy isn't an excuse for everything. Restaurants get busy. That's normal. But customers shouldn't have to suffer through multiple basic problems because the restaurant can't keep up with its own operation. The worst part is that the problems kept stacking up. One issue might have been understandable. Two might have been unfortunate. But when you're dealing with cold food, dirty dishes, a 35+ minute wait for cups and other service problems all at once, something clearly needs to change. I shouldn't have to sit there wondering whether someone is eventually going to notice that we need clean cups. That's literally part of providing table service. The whole experience felt like the customer was expected to just sit there and tolerate whatever happened. That's not how you build repeat customers. If management is reading this, seriously look at what is happening during your shifts. Customers shouldn't be leaving angry because the basics weren't handled. There is a huge difference between a restaurant having an occasional bad day and a visit where problem after problem piles up. This experience crossed into the latter. I don't expect perfection. I do expect the food to be served properly, the dining area to be maintained, and basic requests to be handled in a reasonable amount of time. Those are extremely basic expectations. Instead, we got cold food, dirty dishes, an absurdly long wait for clean cups and a whole list of other frustrations. By the end of the visit, the question wasn't whether the experience was good--it was why we had to put up with so many basic problems in the first place. Absolutely unacceptable experience. If this restaurant wants customers to come back, it needs to seriously get its act together. Because when people spend their money somewhere, the bare minimum is for them to receive clean dining equipment, properly prepared food and service that doesn't make them feel forgotten. read more

We got Togo brisket, ribs, and sides. The meat was insanely salty and dry/old. Inedible. We just had to throw it away. Spent around $50 for two people and couldn't eat over half the foot. The Mac and cheese balls were very good though. That was the only thing we could eat other than the coleslaw. read more

It's been several years since I've been to Jim n Nick's. I don't remember why but, I pass by it often on my way home. I stopped by the drive thru several monaths ago and ordered onion rings and unsweetened tea. They are to D I E for!! The right amount of seasoning is incredible. I'm not sure what else they are seasoned with other than S&P but, I love them. They're always Tasty and Hot. read more

It had been years since I'd been to a Jim 'N Nick's. Had a craving for the loaded potato with pulled pork. It didn't disappoint. We had a great server named Robin. She was quick, had good energy and communicated that the cheese biscuits would be about 10 minutes and then to our surprise they came out quicker. They are still so delicious! Atmosphere was great. We arrived around 7:30pm so we weren't in the rush dinner hour. Thanks for a great dinner! read more

My first NC BBQ experience & it was delicious!!! Seriously hit the spot! The deviled eggs were perfect & the bread was sooo good, warm, fresh, & fluffy! I usually don't like corn bread but these were super good! The food came out warm and fresh when we went for lunch & pretty fast. The waitress was so nice & welcoming too!! The inside had lots of seating and even sold their bbq sauce! read more

Swung by the drive-through today and was in and out in under 15 minutes--now that's how you do fast food with soul. I had every intention of ordering the Smoked Chicken Southern Salad... but let's be honest, it's hard to say no when the scent of smoked meat hits you from the parking lot. Ended up going with Mr. Jim's combo plate--three meats: smoked turkey, brisket, and ribs--with a side of the Morgan & Co. White Sauce (pro tip: do not skip it). Every bite was cooked to perfection. Juicy, flavorful, and full of that slow-smoked goodness I've been missing. My sides of the collard greens and coleslaw were very flavorful... Very good! If you're craving BBQ done right with lightning-fast service, this is your stop. No regrets. Only smoky, saucy satisfaction. read more

Been going to this Jim n Nicks for 9yrs and today was the first time I can honestly I may not go back. Our service was good. But that was it. My order of Bar-B-Q Salad seemed old. The salad greens were old or had been pre-refrigerated, the tomatoes were soft and barely any croutons and they were smaller compared to the last 8 years, virtually no grated cheddar cheese, no bacon and a couple sliced almonds?! The complimentary cheddar rolls were not cooked enough and we got a 4 tiny ones in a big white bowl. The entire food presentation for each dish was not good at all. All food was just slapped on the plate very sloppily and sparsely. The pie we got in the photo looked like it was just plopped on there and was melted and prehandled. I questioned our server to make sure it was ok. So... not sure what's going with this location but I am thinking the food presentation quality and quantity has gone down a lot, cook training, and short cuts are being taken... perhaps new management? Something is going on. Very sad. read more

Right before writing this review, I realized this is a chain BBQ restaurant and that makes sense. We have been trying to find the best BBQ in the area so we decided to give this place a try. We started with the smoked wings which were huge and smoked just the way I like them. The gold mustard sauce lacked flavor but the dunk into ranch and blue cheese made up for it. I got the BBQ salad and my husband got a combo platter. The salad was a good size with plenty of pulled pork on top. I ate about half and took the rest home. My husband's brisket was a little dry, bland and smothered in a sauce that very closely resembled ketchup but I think it was supposed to be BBQ sauce? They do not have hushpuppies, instead they serve cheese biscuits. They also do not offer different BBQ sauces for your meats. The service was very friendly and we had a good experience, I just think you can find way better BBQ in Charlotte. read more

If you like barbecue and cheddar biscuits, then this is the place for you! I bought the cheddar biscuit bags to bring home so we can make them for the family later. The barbecue is awesome; you can choose pork brisket or chicken with several barbecue flavors. The area was very safe and upscale. read more

Stopped in for lunch and a good experience. The service was fantastic. Decided to go with the Carolina pork, Mac N Cheese and fries. The pork was moist and flavorful, the Mac N Cheese wasn't. bad, just not amazing either and the fries were hot and crisp. Would definitely be back as the experience was really good. read more

Me and my family(4 people total) arrived to this Jim and Nicks location at 9:32 PM, and were seated at 9:34 PM. We ordered drinks and the waitress told us everything they didn't have before telling us what they did have. From the time we walked in we felt rushed. We received the classic Cheese Biscuits that everybody loves. However, we didn't love our biscuits because they were cold and obviously they were not as enjoyable as they generally would be. We were then told after the fact that the last biscuits that were made fresh were made at 8:30 PM and that the location closed in 15 minutes. We received our food about 10 minutes later and there was no issues with our main courses. For Jim and Nick's slogan to be "We Give You Our Best" we sadly did not receive Jim and Nicks Best. Next time Jim and Nicks give us your best! read more

The customer service PHENOMINAL! I ordered 1/2 rack of baby backs. When I say they were SALTY, it was too much for me. It gave me a headache. I even tried to push thru but it's a no for me.

This is some great barbecue in the Carolinas, you can tell it's a popular place by the amount of people in there.I had the pulled pork with corn on the cob and one had the brisket with Mac and cheese, both were really delicious and great bbq sauces too. Our waitress was really friendly. She even gave me a sample of collard greens which I loved. my families been there a few times before so I know all the food is good baby back ribs are a hit. read more

Wife is not as much of a fan as I am because she thinks their "smoke" is too heavy. I find it just fine. Took a cousin and his wife for dinner. Crowded, as usual, so had to wait. We got seated in the middle tables, surrounded by booths. Very cold, so were moved to a booth that cut the breezy cold coming in. The open tables are colder in the winter, not so bad in the summers. Nice menu for food with lots of variety of ways to consume BBQ. Can even get BBQ on a salad. I went for brisket, which you can get fatty, lean or a combo. I had the lean. Cousin did the ribs and was really happy. His very slender wife played with a salad and snacked off of our other plates. My wife did the chopped pork sandwich and did not complain. The bar offers about 2 dozen of bourbons, served as shots. You can get them with ice if you like. My cousin liked bourbon, so in he went, heads first, and you could not beat the smiles on his face. He was a happy cowboy for sure. If you are looking to a bourbon to make your favorite, come on down and march through a couple of shots and take notes. Keep looking, but spread your tastings over time. Service was very nice and friendly. Lots of parking outside. read more

Good food and service, especially from Drew. We like to eat in the bar area. Recommend to our friends.

They have awesome food no doubt. I've never had an issue while dining in. Its always been a pleasant experience. However their delivery takeout has issues. I've been going to this place since it opened. I've ordered delivery several times over the years. The past couple of years they have been frequent missing items. First it was just a side here or there. Then a couple of times my Smoked Sausage add-on was missing. I just ate the cost and didn't complain. Last night my order was missing an entire half chicken. Sides arrived fine. I finally complain and their answer is the call Door Dash. I contact door dash and the order in not listed on my account since I ordered from the site. So lesson learned. Dining in should be fine, but be wary of ordering delivery through their website. read more

Did not like where I was seated- asked to be changed- the seater never even heard me. Waiter was clueless. 1) Said chili would not be ready until 15 or 20 minutes later. Said that would be fine. Never got it. 2) Never refilled biscuit basket or water. 3) Asked for brisket- 1/2 marbled and 1/2 lean- got only the marbled. 4) He was going to check to see if he could get me brisket that was charred- never did. 5) Was supposed to be 8 oz of meat- lucky if it was 4 oz. Food 1) Biscuits were great. 2) Everything else was just OK. Ended up spending over $40 for two for lunch and we went home hungry. read more

call in order was ready when I got there. I had the pulled chicken white with their white sauce. Excellent!!!!

Went for lunch and loved everything we had. Fatty brisket was melt in your mouth South Carolina pork was great but didn't love the sauce Coleslaw was delicious - had onions, yum! Barbequed corn was excellent Spare ribs were moist and yummy! Pulled pork was quite good Collard Greens we're good wish they had a bit more smoked pork flavoring though Banana pudding was delish! Pecan pie was good. VERY sweet though so if you don't have a sweet tooth it may be a bit much for you. Bartender was cool. He made a Bloody Mary for my girlfriend that she could NOT stop talking about. She must've said how great it was at least 10 times. She lives in NC so I'm quite sure she will be going back there on the days the bartender is there. I can't recall his name. read more

Stopped in with my wife while we were in the area. The place looks pretty standard for a chain BBQ place; manufactured corporate charm. We walked in and were seated right away in a booth by the server. The place was about half full, most were seated in the outdoor seating area as the weather was perfect for outdoor dining. We ordered a couple of beers from their limited draft menu. I had a NoDa Hop Drop & Roll, and my wife had a Sierra Nevada Hazy Little Thing. The beers were not as cold as I would have expected, served in standard shaker pint glasses, and did not taste terribly fresh. Once I finished my first beer I sat for much of our time there with an empty glass as our server passed us by several times before I finally broke down and flagged her down to ask for another beer. The food was decent at best, I had the quarter chicken (leg & thigh), fries, and brisket chili. I tried to get onion rings, but they had run out... How do you run out of onion rings at 3:00 on a Saturday! This leads me to believe they used frozen onion rings or they could have made another order fresh. The chicken was actually quite good, very smoky, tender, juicy, and flavorful. The fries were just ok, and the brisket chili was very good. My wife got the pulled chicken sandwich and mac-n-cheese. The chicken was good, but the mac-n-cheese was lackluster and uninspired. The service was hit or miss. Our server was very friendly, but distracted and inattentive. Overall, the visit was disappointing. Not terrible, but not great. If you want some good BBQ I would skip Jim'N Nick's. read more

We enjoy Jim n Nics monthly via the drive through and inside. Food is always great and consistent. The Southern Salad is my favorite with chicken. Healthy and a great value. Of course their BBQ meats and deserts are wonderful as well. During Covid they did cut back on the wines available and we miss those. Service is always good and the wait times are short except on some Friday or Saturday nights. read more

Best food ever, the pulled chicken is off the chain. I ordered the 2 meat plate pulled chicken, pork ribs and for the sides I got the collard greens and beans. They say the brisket is good too but I never tried them and I'm sure they are good. I also had the 6 wings try the white bbq sauce it's very good. If they bring it to Texas it'll be a great battle. read more

I've had three visits to Jim N' Nick's, and the third visit reminded me of what I'd been missing. What I ate... Deviled Eggs ($4.49) - Four halves of Southern-style stuffed eggs - This has the same traditional great taste I'm used to with most deviled eggs. Highly recommended if you need your deviled egg fix. Loaded Bar-B-Q Baker ($11.49, with beef brisket +$2.00) - A huge baked potato topped with your choice of smoked meat (I chose beef brisket), bacon, cheddar cheese, scallions, butter, sour cream, and bar-b-q sauce - PERFECTION. A monster potato that fills you up with its savory goodness. While the cheese biscuits are complimentary, the biscuits are so good, you'll want to take a half dozen or a dozen home. Soft, cheesy, and buttery. If you come for anything, come for this.

Outstanding food and friendly service. Everything was delicious but The banana pudding is out of this world.

Service My mother and I visited this location on a Sunday - I believe it was football Sunday because it wasn't very busy for 3PM. The welcome was great and our waiter good, although a bit too touchy. Ambiance Dim lighting throughout Food I ordered the pulled smoked chicken sandwich with baked Mac & cheese and chicken tenders with fries. My mother ordered the pulled pork platter, but somehow, the waiter heard pork for everyone and I don't eat pork. When the food came out I noticed it looked a lot like my mother's plate, but thought it may have been mostly meat from a thigh or leg, but after the 2nd bite, I asked the waiter if it was chicken and he informed me it was pork (internal scream). I then asked him to please take it back and bring out the chicken. The chicken had more of a hickory smoked flavor, but I didn't care for the sandwich. It reminded me of ham and not chicken. I prefer Midwood Smokehouse on Central. They use more breast meat and it still has the smoked flavor without tasting like ham. Clearly, I don't like meat from legs or thighs, lol. The mac and cheese was pretty good for a bbq joint, but not better than McKoy's. Smokehouse and Saloon. If I return, I'd stick with the chicken tenders, although those were super small. They did have a good flavor. read more

My dining mate and I had lunch here with 2 friends. When asked what I wanted to drink, no hot tea or decaf coffee. Ok, I could deal with that. But when I wanted to order bbq chicken, we were told no chicken available today, only fried chicken tenders. So I ordered smoked turkey breast as did my dining mate. The turkey was dry and salty and we both didn't eat much of it. The sides of coleslaw, and green beans average. What a disappointment. My friend ordered salad with chicken tenders and he liked it. My other friend had ribs, liked it too. I have eaten here a few times before and generally ordered the chicken but maybe hit an off day today. Just a disappointment and a statement of the times with restaurants. The best part of the meal was the tiny cornmeal muffins read more
